Le Grand Bassin, B&B autonome, Vue canal du Midi

Beware: This is a ghost hotel with absentee owner/staff. Unresponsive to email, and phone calls. Very limited check in availability. No air conditioning or ceiling fans. And an inflexible cancellation period - 7 days!!

We stayed at Le Grand Bassin Guesthouse for one night before picking up our Le Boat for a 10-day cruise east. I can say without hesitation that we had a perfect stay! We arrived on Castelnaudry by train, and then walked to the guesthouse, so of course we were behind schedule. Sophie waited patiently for us and, on our arrival, called Chez David in town to make sure we would get a table for dinner. Sophie is an exceptional host, and our room was clean and comfortable. We did not have breakfast at her place, so I can't speak to that. However, I can only imagine that it would be excellent, given the rest of our experience. My wife and I have travelled all over Europe, and Le Grand Bassin is a beautiful property at a great price. Please do not hesitate to give it a try the next time you visit Castelnaudry.

Chambre confortable, calme et agréable dans un lieu parfaitement rénové. L’accueil est chaleureux, aux petits soins et nous avons eu droit à un petit déjeuner qui avait l’air sur mesure tellement tout était parfait ! Nous y retournerons très certainement !

We arrived tired from a long cycle and had to look at an email to find the code to the door to get in. No person on site after that for 2 hours.... Good location but very basic rooms and high price compared to other nearby properties. We rented relatively last minute and it was one of our few available options....

Tout s’est bien passé pour un séjour d’une nuit, endroit calme, propre et accueillant .
