Novotel Limoges Le Lac Hotel 4 stars

Well located hotel where we could walk our small dog down by the lake. There are a pair of Otters living in the lake which are fun to watch. Comfortable room and pleasant restaurant. The negative for us was that the restaurant staff started setting up for the early weekday breakfast by playing loud music in the restaurant at 5 a.m. which we could hear in our room. In these days of bluetooth headphones that is not necessary. Also it is frustrating that Novatel rooms don't have a safe in the room, which means you have to take your valueables with you when you go out.

Very comfortable and lovely location and the service was good. Reasonable and friendly staff that helped make the overnight stay a satisfactory experience and the food was excellent with a comprehensive breakfast. Would liked to spend a few nights there to explore Limoges properly.

Food was OK, but you will find better in the ity, overpriced for what it was. Drink serve in a dirty glass. It was replaced but no apology. Reception staff absent in the restaurant gossiping when needed, to check out.no bell to summons them. Mature lady on reception very helpful in giving directions to Limoges centre, but when the safe failed we were promised someone would come to fix it in 15 minutes. 90 minutes later and no one showed up. We went to reception to complain and the woman there said she was supposed to come. She eventually opened the safe after we had had our meal, again no apology for keeping us waiting. Room was agood size but cheap fittings, no drinks in minibar. Hairdryer attached to wall in bathroom, so nowhere to sit down to dry you hair, I asked for a chair andit was left in the room instead of the bathroom. Hairdyer faulty it kept falling out of the holder and automatically switched itself on. Communal areas not inviting, large stains on the carpet. Hotel needs upgrading and some of the staff need retraining. Whole hotel poorly managed. We regularly stay in Novotels in England, France and Spain, with no complaints, we normally have a very good experience, but this hotel is not up to the usual brand standard.

lovely modern rooms.staff great.really welcoming and helpful.restaurant -great service and well presented food. wine,beer overpriced . pool small but kids loved and was heated.needs a bit of repair work around poolas concrete joins cracking up and son cut finger on an area-nothing major and receptino had plasters to hand. would def stay here again.

I and my family always use this hôtel when near Limoges on our travels (at least six times in last three years). Convenient to autoroute, within short walking distance of convenient large Leclerc supermarket, and view over lake (with good exercise walking around it), and restaurant good (not large menu, but sufficient choice of dishes). Hotel slipped up, for the first time, on this most recent visit by not making-up the sofa bed prior to our arrival, but soon arranged for this to be done, with an apology and volumteered no charge for a subsequent bottle of wine at dinner. Breakfast very good.

This is a Novotel with better standard then the average Novotels. Dog friendly. Nice green environment, but don't pay extra for a room with lake view. It is not a lake, more a muddy puddle. The room was nice and clean with well working air condition. Our dinner in the restaurant was also very good, as the breakfast in the morning.

This was a most pleasant and enjoyable stay, made even better by the lake view from the bedroom window. The room was quiet, and we liked the door between the main door and the bedroom, to make a dressing area. Shower room was good and the shower strong, hot and adjustable. It was also clean and worked efficiently. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of variety and checkin and checkout seemless as usual with an Accor hotel.

We stayed here during a long weekend of enjoyment in the Limousin region. The hotel is well located with a very good restaurant on site. The lake behind the hotel is perfect for walks and running. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The management at Domaine des Hauts de Loire could learn from the professionals here.

This hotel is in a most attractive position by the side of a lake. The interior is bright and clean with very comfortable rooms. The staff, without exception, are polite, friendly and helpful. The restaurant has a good a la carte menu with interesting daily specials and there is a wide range of breakfast dishes.We stay here frequently and will continue to do so.

we booked a family room. the room was nice; but could have been a bit bigger. on the other hand, the TV was too big for the room. the diner (chicken for the whole family) was OK but way too expensive.

By American standards this hotel is an economy scale property. The hotel was generally not very clean or up to date. The food was very over priced and the service was just ok. Convenient off the interstate - no frills.

Very good stay in nice surroundings backing onto a lake on commercial area on outskirts of Limoges. Hotel was busy and staff at breakfast were unable to cope due to too small a number being on duty. This is not a complaint regarding those on duty as they did a sterling job, more an issue for management to address regarding staffing numbers.

As a regular Novotel user I visited this hotel twice in May, 2016. On both occasions the service in the restaurant while timely appeared grudging. The (head?) waiter, Patrice seemed to have a very negative attitude towards customers and on the first visit he had a large cut on his thumb which was uncovered and coming into contact with the plates. The building appears to be a very old design from the outside although the public areas are pleasant and welcoming. During our visit the bar-staff were conspicuous by their absence. I did not like the practice of asking for payment before the bill was made available to the customer and this happened on both visits. I doubt that I will use this Novotel again.

The stay at this hotel was very good and we had a lovely walk around the lake after our evening meal which we had in the city centre. The view of the lake from the hotel room's window was also very nice.

This hotel is so easy to get to from the autoroute and has a lovely location overlooking the lac, also Leclerc superstore opposite for cheap fuel. Its nice to walk round the lac after hours in the car just before dinner and in the summer there's the pool to relax in.
