Les Suites Sarladaises, charming holiday apartments in the historic heart of Sarlat-la-Canéda evoking the town’s medieval past. Oozing authenticity, the apartments are in the ancient hotel de Leydis. Les Suites Sarladaises offer both an air of elegance and modern comfort, seducing you with the charm of exposed beams, woodwork dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, wavy period window glass, worn stone steps, gargoyles, niches, and ancient stone sinks dating from the middle ages and renaissance. Les Suites Sarladaises consists of five upscale self-catering units (two one bedroom apartments and three studios) available to discerning travelers for rental in the heart of the historic center of Sarlat-la-Canéda, one of the most visited towns in France and capital of the ‘Perigord Noir’ area of Dordogne. Les Suites Sarladaises is housed in the ancient Hôtel de Leydis, an imposing structure of medieval origin refurbished in the 17th century as the home of magistrates of the Leydis family who presided over judicial affairs in the adjoining ‘Presidial’, the royal court of justice.

The riches of Sarlat draw significant numbers of tourists to the Dordogne river valley, and the town’s outstanding architectural heritage was recognized in 1962 as a national historic monument – the first French city to be so honored. It is also now designated a UNESCO world heritage site. The historic center of Sarlat is deemed one of the most important Medieval cityscapes in all of France and Europe. Les Suites Sarladaises is in the heart of the old Medieval center – now a pedestrian zone and uniquely lit by gaslights at night – and an easy walk to all major attractions. Sarlat is a lively town with two markets per week (Wednesdays and Saturdays) and a year-round calendar of interesting and entertaining activities for all ages. It is especially busy in the height of summer (late July and all of August) but perhaps most enjoyable in the spring (from Easter through the end of June) and again in autumn when the crowds lessen and the weather is fine and cool.
