Brive Souillac Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels

Brive-Vallée de la Dordogne airport is at Nespouls, about 15 km south of the city: there's no train, but a taxi reaches the centre in about 15 minutes and bus line 26 covers the same route. Brive is small, so the choice of area matters more for the type of stay than for the distance: near the Hôtel de Ville you get more space and comfort, in the pedestrian hyper-centre you're a step away from shops and restaurants, while towards the station it's convenient for those also travelling by train. No hotels in direct proximity to the terminal: here the airport remains a small regional stop.
