Best Western Plus Richelieu
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Best Western Plus Richelieu is worth booking if you want the most comfortable well-rated option in central Limoges and a short walk to the cathedral. Skip it if you are watching costs, since our other two picks score similarly for about half the price.

This is our Luxury pick in Limoges. It suits couples, business travellers and families who want a 4-star hotel with a gym, a terrace and a broad breakfast offer. Family rooms are listed and the data tags it as pet friendly, so confirm the pet rules if you bring an animal.
No five-star hotel was available in our sample, so this is a four-star that met our 8.5 minimum score. Budget travellers should skip it: the city's cheaper options are well rated too.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at 40 Avenue Baudin. Guests rate the location 8.8 out of 10 and say the historic town centre and local museums are a short walk away.
The Church of St. Michel des Lions is about 0.6 km, around 8 minutes on foot, and Limoges Cathedral is about 0.8 km, around 10 minutes. Solignac Abbey is about 8 km away, roughly 100 minutes on foot, which is far, so you will need public transport, a taxi or a car to get there. Times are straight-line estimates.
What guests say
The score is 8.5 out of 10 from 975 reviews. Guests like the short walk to the old centre and museums, and they describe the staff as friendly, helpful and professional.
Breakfast gets mixed feedback. The buffet is called varied, with fresh juice, but some guests found hot items cold or watery.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
The reference price was €118.14 per night, about €236 for two nights. That is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates. The sample median was €88.58, so you pay a clear premium here.
For that you get free Wi-Fi, a fitness center, a terrace, family rooms and air conditioning. Breakfast options listed are continental, gluten-free, buffet and breakfast to go. Whether breakfast is included in your rate is not confirmed.
Our Budget pick, B&B HOTEL Limoges Centre Gare, is a 2-star with an 8.2 score at €53.98 a night. Our Best Value pick, Campanile Limoges Centre - Gare, is a 3-star scoring 8.7 at €62.70. The Campanile actually scores higher for about €55 less per night, so the Richelieu only makes sense if you want the extra facilities and the 4-star standard.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 eligible hotels in Limoges. Our Luxury slot prioritises five-star hotels and accepts a four-star only with a score of at least 8.5. Best Western Plus Richelieu met that bar and held the second-highest review-score position among the 9.
Before you book
Check whether breakfast is in your rate and read recent comments on the hot buffet items. Confirm gym and terrace access for your dates. If you bring a pet, ask about rules and fees. Cancellation terms, room size and noise were not assessed. Compare today's price with the €118.14 reference, and with our two cheaper picks.
