2. Toulouse from above at Mama Shelter

Just a few minutes' walk from the city centre and the Capitole, the Mama Shelter is renowned for its superb roof terrace offering a panoramic view of the pink city! Here you can enjoy local cuisine, among other things, or simply have a drink. We love the rooms at the Mama Shelter, which are extremely comfortable and resolutely designer!
