Does anyone have any experience of or any recommendations for hotels over int' Toulouse

[BirstallDog]

When i went with the club the first year we all stayed at the Best Western Hotel Capitoul. http://hotel-capitouls.com/en/ 

It was very central and near the popular bar areas,

We caught the metro to and from the ground,

The Metro station was a short walk from the hotel.

Having done the city the last 3 times, this time I am staying near the airport, which is also a walk (mile or so) from the ground. Blagnac is a very small town / village but looks to have quite a few restaurants and bars. Dont think I will bother venturing into the city at all this time. Having said that, the Melting Pot was a very good craic, especially with a few thousand Leinster fans in town for the kick and clap.

I'm staying at the Hôtel Novotel Toulouse Centre Wilson.

I'm in the Campanile Toulouse Blagnac near the airport. It's my first journey to Toulouse though so I don't know if its any good...

[redditchbulldog]

i'm in the Novotel Toulouse center Compans caffarelli which is where most teams stay when they play Toulouse, it was recommended by Cov Bears president

[BirstallDog]

Does anybody know the exact kick off time ? I have seen 3.00pm, 3.15pm. and 3.30pm....?

Does anyone know the routine for match entrance / tickets? Is it just simply pay on the gate?

Imagine kids with season tickets will need to go somewhere to get a ticket first, which will be fun. It's hard enough explaining "kids get in free" in England / English.

Option one.

"Bonjour, monsieur. Deux billets gratuits pour mes enfants, s'il vous plaits."

If that fails...

Option two (speaking loudly and slowly).

"Listen pal, two... free... tickets... for...my... kids."

From my observations an abilty to speak or write English has never been a requirement on this forum either.

Ibis Toulouse Centre is a good base, next door to the bus station where buses run virtually right to the stadium in Blagnac and all of 5 minutes stumbling from the Melting Pot. Stayed in 2009 and have tried a few others since (the Ibis opposite the station and the Novotel Caffarelli) but return to the Toulouse Centre for our Challenge Cup game there last year. Usually easy enough to get Ibis voucher codes online as well and cashback with Quidco etc.
