La Terrasse Hotel, Meyronne
Former summer residence of the bishops of Tulle
From the early 11th century, this castle was coveted by several turbulent lords. It then became the summer residence of the bishops of Tulle, and successively had to endure the wars of religion followed by those of the French Revolution.
It was converted into a Hotel-Restaurant in the late 1920s. By becoming a traditional hotel and restaurant, the castle has lost none of its charm of yesteryear. The rooms are classically decorated and they have a good restaurant with fantastic views from its terrace.
Each of the rooms and suites are air conditioned, and equipped with a hair dryer, mini-bar, flat screen TV, free WiFi, safe and a selection of welcome products.
