Mama Shelter Toulouse

The hotel is only 12 minutes away from the train station, that was important for me as I was arriving late and checking out early. Breakfast is truely amazing - has everything, you can have it inside or in the outside inner area. The room is very unusual and has this red light option.

Cool hotel, nice concept, comfortable rooms. Basic service, breakfast is a disaster had to wait 30 mins every day for buffet eggs

Super hôtel pour les couples très intimiste et très bien situé

Non è chiaro il deposito cauzione, mi hanno addebitato 3 volte sulla carta per 3 notte, differenza cifra .

An absolutely awful experience. Avoid this hotel, it is abysmal. Why people come here, heaven knows, all style over content. Fortunately we were able to change our room, the room we had booked was a shoe box. You could not get out of the side of the bed. I thought, well maybe dinner could be better but no, it was atrocious and went from bad to worse. Having taken our order for drinks we finally managed to get someone’s attention to order some food, starters and main course. The wine was initially unavailable but a bottle was found. Our main course was delivered but our starters were not. Ok, the waiter made a mistake but the food which was served was not only vile it was unsafe. Raw pork and steak. I have never seen such badly cooked food. I returned my steak only for it to returned apparently recooked. I daren’t think what they had done to it. The staff were not particularly concerned. The dinner I was looking forward to consisted of rather chewy bread and a bottle of wine. It don’t know whether this is representative of all the hotels in the chain but I’ll never come back again. The preceding five days of our holiday have been wonderful. Thank you Mama Shelter for spoiling our last day.

I stayed at a hotel in Toulouse centre, close to all the main attractions and the Jean Jaures metro station. The lobby had a modern and hipster vibe which included two arcade machines for visitors. The rooftop bar was nice, but the city view wasn't that great. The part I didn't like was the design and layout of the bedroom. When you walk in, you're greeted by a completely red room, and the masks on the bedside lamps with the red lights made me feel uncomfortable. They went for a modern look, but it made the room feel cramped, and there was no space for coffee and tea services. The restaurant was popular with locals and visitors, but it can get noisy if a party is booked there. They sold some excellent party food, but the party can be disruptive if you're trying to sleep in the room above. Highly recommend it for couples but less so for businesses and families.

My wife and I enjoyed a short stay at this hotel a year ago, so when we returned to Toulouse we naturally booked again. Unfortunately, the second visit was disappointing in a lot of ways. The rooms are funky and cool, but they don't actually function that well for a multi-day trip - no closets or drawers, just some small shelves and a rail for hangars. Having a chair in the room would be really nice, too! The staff seemed extremely disengaged, as opposed to the friendliness of the first visit - the notable exception was the gentleman in the restaurant at breakfast, who was charming. The restaurant and bar were the biggest issue. Bartenders seemed unfamiliar with making drinks - common cocktails were completely wrong. Menu items were frequently unavailable - "No, you can't get the cheese, we only do desserts now." Tried to get pizza one day for lunch - "Pizzeria" is written on the front door, there is pizza in the menu online or via QR code, there's a picture of a pizza on the web site - "No, we don't serve pizza!" Wanted a drink in the bar one afternoon, and the few tables dedicated for the bar were occupied (large round tables, three with one person on a computer each) - they wouldn't let us sit at any of the other 25 unoccupied tables because those were for food only. I will say the breakfast buffet is very good, though. Housekeeping also a bit spotty - rooms were clean enough, but coffee/water/toilet paper replenishment were erratic - and if you needed something they had forgotten, you had to go to the front desk for it, no-one was bringing it to the room for you. All in all, we're sorry we didn't investigate other hotels, and would not stay at a Mama Shelter again.
