la table de l'orchidée sur Labarthe-Sur-Leze

28/06/2026: Our feedback regarding Chamber d’Hôtes outside Toulouse “Maison du Poêlon” which was very disappointing too. At arrival the place was looking nothing like the Pictures shown on their website. The Garden in front of the entrance was totally neglected and wooden entrance gate was broken. We arrived at 17h00 as per the email I received but no one opened the door although we rang the bell several times. Unfortunately using the given phone numbers did not go through as we are connected to e-SIM and only realized recently that we needed to change the one number in the French Code. When we finally could enter the establishment, the host did not apologize but simply told us he was busy vacuuming and that the door bell was also broken 😏 The room I booked “Maxime” he claimed wasn’t for us but later realized it was actually reserved under our name. The room was spacious and clean but no drinking Water was provided and tissue box was empty. Breakfast which was included was rather poor and represented by host’s wife who was initially hardly saying two words but as she realized my husband was French speaking eventually engaged in a conversation. However the breakfast was not at all like the reviews had mentioned, by far not “exceptional” ! The poorest display of choices we’ve ever had as a Buffet. Their local cheeses were two slices of Emmentaler & two of Gruyère and the same applied to the rest of the display. Unfortunately we got the impression or it was rather blatant that it was a dream entered into 7 years ago to own & run a Guesthouse by the hosts Thierry & Gaelle which turned out to be anything but … of which only the obligation of some form of duty is left.

22/05/2026: A beautiful building, a spacious and tastefully decorated room. Excellent breakfast. However, limited check-in and check-out times, and a noisy room with no soundproofing. Above-average value for money.
