...The crown Plaza hotel in the centre of the old town of Toulouse is a great place for a romantic weekend break. BMI fly in to Toulouse from Manchester so two hours after boarding the plane we had just a twenty minute (20 Euro) taxi drive from Toulouse Blagnac airport to get to the hotel. I booked using the www.ichotelsgroup.com website which is a very easy way of finding the best hotel anywhere in the world within the group (Holiday Inn, Intercontinental and Crowne Plaza). So I had read that the location for this hotel was on Place Capitole in the centre of the old town of Toulouse. What a result. We didn't hire a car because we just wanted to stay in the city centre and do the café / museum / cathedral / restaurant chill out weekend and from this hotel just a short walk to all the above was possible.

Toulouse is now one of the major centres of the European Aircraft Industry and as a result has quite a cosmopolitan flavour.
I can highly recommend it as European destination for a short (or long) break....

...Toulouse is a beautiful old city in the South of France that is sometimes overlooked by most travellers.
It has beautiful architecture, interesting museums, fantastic restaurants and a lovely large park right in the centre.
The people are friendly and helpful to tourists (in particular when using public transport – all the announcements are in French and my French isn’t that good, it takes me a while to understand it!!). Public transport into and around the city is fairly cheap (depends where you are travelling from), and reliable.
I would say that you could enjoy a city break in Toulouse of a couple of days, particularly in you where then travelling on the Dordogne or the Pyrennes....
