Parking in Salat is difficult at anytime so plan to park up the hill and have free parking in the local streets

Location next to the Le Pub in the main part of the Medieval City. Access via Le Pub bar and a separate key code access too. We parked up the hill and carried our bags down to the hotel through the beautiful cobbled streets. We were met by friendly owners at Le Pub bar and had a lovely room with wonderful views over the square and the large church housing the market. It was a perfect location for restaurants and also had a bar with local food available. Breakfast was excellent and consisted of granola, pastries, bread and jams served with coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice.

Had to walk up many stairs to get to the room which was okay for us but worth noting for anyone that struggles with stairs.

Great central location, friendly staff, good air conditioning, nice room. Breakfast was tasty.

Nothing, it was a busy, owner run hotel. It suited our style of travelling.

The hotel is in the centre of Sarlat old town. We had a window with a view of the town square. The hotel also has a brassiere, bar and terrace restaurant. Where we had our breakfast. The old town streets are mechanically swept and washed every day. It is a joy to walk the streets. This town is loved, cherished, polished and taken care of like a favourite child.

Beautiful room with original features, stunning view especially in the evening. Staff were very friendly and helpful, we arrived early and were allowed into the room. Breakfast was lovely Parking was free just a short walk away. It was the best location and value for money we stayed after travelling all around the west of France

Very beautiful, old and atmospheric hotel in a historic building on the central square of Sarlat-la-Canéda. We stayed in a triple room. Our room conveyed the unique atmosphere of the old city, in the same time it was very cozy and equipped with everything you need. Ideal location to feel the spirit of the medieval city, as well as to get to other interesting places in Perigord.

It didn't bother us, but know that the rooms are above a pub which might be noisy at some moments.

This is a great little hotel right in the centre of the beautiful medieval town, overlooking the historic square. The rooms are tasteful, the beds are comfortable and the views lovely. The spaces are quirky and interesting and you have a perfect location from which to explore the rest of the town.

It was a bit hard to find, but if you find the Le Pub on the square, just go in there. We arrived on a Saturday and the roads were closed because of the market, which made it difficult to access the hotel.

Friendly helpful reception, great location, comfortable bed, clean bathroom with bathtub and adjoining toilet. Kettle and cups with tea bags/coffee in the room. Simple French breakfast with freshly squeezed orange juice, so nicely served. We heard the music at night from the pub below but it was very faint and didn't bother us.

The hotel doesn't have a lift, and lots of stairs, so beware having too much luggage! This also applies if you arrive by train and need to get to the hotel, as we weren't ever able to find any car service during our stay. The breakfast was lovely, though because it was open to the square, and not just for Le Lys Dort guests, it was sometimes challenging to get the server's attention for a coffee refill, or any additional items. The breakfast rules aren't very clear, as to how much of any particular item you could have, though I was always able to get a refill on my coffee. It also wasn't clear how to contact the host/manager, or when they would be working on site, but this didn't impact us too much, and when we did meet her in person she was extremely friendly, and spoke good English. We were traveling by train, and had to walk from the train station to the hotel, which was challenging because we had quite a bit of luggage. I don't believe there are taxis - or at least, if there had been, it wouldn't have gotten you to the hotel due to ban of automobiles in the historic center.

The location is outstanding! From the window in the sitting room/spare bedroom, we could see the main square of Vieux Sarlat below. And we could actually see the hammer that rang the bell in the square every half hour & on the hour. That the hotel offered air conditioning, was great, as it was super hot in early July. We were close to fun shopping & browsing locations, and excellent restaurants. Really, the historic center of Sarlat is just so beautiful and fascinating, and Le Lys Dort puts you right in the center of it all. That breakfast included was a nice bonus. On the morning of our departure, our host kindly agreed to give us a lift to the train station, which was greatly appreciated!

The location is in the very centre and the room was beautifully decorated

Location was fantastic, right in the center of everything. The only negatives I have was the distance from parking to the accommodation, but this was due to the banishment of cars in the center of town, so pack light. The bed was a little on the firm side for me, but that is just personal choice. The host and staff was were lovely and YES I would stay there again and certainly recommend it to friends and family.

The room was lovely, they have a great garden, the hosts were wonderful and spoke German. I highly recommend this hotel.

climbing to the room would be difficult for older people

perfect location in downtown. You need to climb for your room. The room is small but fine for couple nights. The bathroom has a glass transperent door directly to the room. Owners have bar downstairs from rooms they are renting. Breakfast was simple traditional french with bakery, yogurt, fresh juice and coffee

Little variety at breakfast and didn'd ask if we wanted to repeat something.

Great location, in the heart of historic centre of lovely Sarlat. The staff were very kind and helpful. Fresh orange juice at the breakfast.
