I stayed at La Villa des Consuls in Sarlat for two nights in early August 2026 to attend the Périgord Noir Music Festival. The hotel staff were super! They were very generous in helping me with several aspects of my stay- from helping me to deliver my luggage to the room to parking and recommendations for dinner. They even arranged taxi rides to and from a concert venue 30 minutes driving distance from the hotel! The location was perfect- very central with everything within walking distance; just a short walk down the cobblestone paths leading from the hotel were the restaurants and countless street artisans. I also found a very nice pharmacy within walking distance. I would gladly return to this hotel and recommend it to anyone looking to experience this beautiful medieval town in the Dordogne region.

Ideally located in the walkable old town, our party of 4 stayed for 5 nights in the Medicis apartment. It is spacious and elegant with a patio for sitting outdoors. We parked our car in the garage available for €15 per day, about a 5 minute walk away. Breakfast is available for €11 pp and is adequate- we ate there each day. We requested new towels each day which were happily given to us at reception. There is no cleaning or replenishment service during your stay. Our only challenge was that we stayed during a heatwave and despite lowering the temp on the two aircon units, sleep was quite challenging as they didn’t seem to work effectively.

La Villa des Consuls was the perfect base for exploring beautiful Sarlat. We stayed in the Médicis 2-Bedroom Apartment, which was absolutely beautiful, spacious, and featured a fantastic private terrace. The location is unbeatable—tucked away in a historic building just steps from the famous market and an endless variety of great food options. Having access to their garage parking just a short, pleasant walk (less than 10 minutes) away made dealing with a car incredibly easy. A truly wonderful stay!

Lovely place, well renovated with spacious bedroom and high ceiling. We enjoyed the quietness and the comfortable room. Nice breakfast with local products. Loved Christmas market nearby. In the heart of the city but difficult to access, not by car so call the reception well in advance of your trip for a parking spot.

We stayed here 6 nights and used Sarlat as our base to see the Dordogne. Almost everything was within a 1 -1.5 hr drive. Many of the towns were just 15-30 minutes away. The location is fantastic not just for seeing the rest of the Dordogne, but also the location in town. The hotel is up a small uphill path (50 feet I would guess) from the main street in town. You are a very short walk to this main street, a few minutes walk you are in the heart of the old town. If we come to Sarlat again, this would most definitely be where we stay. We had the Cary Grant apartment. It was a very large apartment, with a huge bedroom and even bigger living room with a kitchen. It also had a lovely patio off the living room, with a table and chair. It was very relaxing sitting there and reading with the birds chirping and bees buzzing. The room had plenty of plugs where you needed them, although you have to unplug some of the lights and things they had so you could use the plugs next to the night stand or desk/table. |Wifi was fine, relatively fast. AC is in the living room, so it does take a bit to make its way to the bedroom. We were there during a heat wave and it worked well enough. My only complaint about the room is the shower in the bathroom. The shower is great, with lots of hot water fast and a strong steam. But, the shower is open in the back and the glass partition on the side does not go all the way back. So when using the rain shower, the slope of the shower flower is such that the water flows along the glass partition into the rest of the bathroom. Worse is if you use the comb shower , as it pushes the water farther to the back and sprays all over the place, particularly the flow of the water. We were constantly mopping up after our showers. Good news was they had one of those electric heated towel racks and everything dried on it in just a few hours. The staff is wonderful. They try very hard to cater to all your needs (more towels, toilet paper etc). Anything we needed, they were on top of it right away. Breakfast was typical continental, for 11E. I am not a big fan of continental breakfast and, when in France, its pastries all the way for me (pan au raisin, pan au suize, and many others). We did the hotel breakfast our first morning as we had not yet found a good pastry shop (we did, and went there all 5 other mornings. See my review of Boulangerie-pâtisserie Maison Lissajoux). The hotel has a lovely breakfast area and a wide assortment of croissants, bread, etc. Parking is about 7 mi walk and easy to access and leave from. It was 15E per day when we were there in May 2026. The hotel is in the old town, so driving there is restricted most of the time. So we were instructed to park in the parking lot (we got the entry code ahead of time and very good instructions about how to enter the garage and where to park). We hauled our luggage from there and it took about 10 min. As we left before 9 during the week (vs weekend), we were able to pull the car into the old town area and near the hotel. The on line photos accurately represent the hotel and room. I would highly recommend staying here when in Sarlat. Matter of fact, I cannot think of why you would stay anywhere else.

We drove from Salers to Sarlat-la-Canéda via Argentat-sur-Dodogne, Souillac, Montignac and Les-Eyziers. The drive was extremely picturesque and a number of chateaux were visible from the road. We arrived in Sarlat to find the streets filled with overhanging bunting and all the shops had their goods displayed on the pavements. There was lots of very colourful clothing offered for sale. For those who like cannard, this town being situated in the Perigord region is Foie gras central! We stayed for two nights at this great establishment located in the centre of the medieval city, in the Richelieu suite, which was spacious and fantastically appointed and which has its own outside terrace with chairs, a table and a lounge. We heard the most incredible pianist playing in the street just below our window. What a joy! The suite provided everything you could ever need, including a comfortable bed, a dishwasher and a fridge. You cannot drive directly to the hotel and you will need to get directions prior to arriving regarding where to park your car. We reserved a spot in their parking garage and there are only four spots available. Clois and Valentine at Reception were very helpful in recommending L'Adresse restaurant for dinner, which was exceptional, as well as where to find La Poste. Highly recommended!

The hotel is right at the city center, convenient spot and very French-feeling. The hotel is also surrounded by a lot of nice restaurants.
