Place is in a sorry condition, as soon as you hit the stairs you notice a weird stench, the building is old, I can hear the neighbors every time they walk around or flush the toilet. Not sure what was happening during my stay but there were doors being slammed repeatedly all afternoon. However, the place is equipped to accommodate cyclists and their bikes in the form of a dedicated secure storage space. For the price I would have expected the room to be better equipped and the place to be better maintained

Très déçu

Séjour prévue sur 5 jours non consécutifs, j’ai annulé 4 jours car beaucoup trop de toile d’araignée dans la chambre. Une odeur dans les sanitaires et salle de douche qui est persistante et très désagréable. Le soin apporté a la chambre n’est digne d’un hôtel à 3 étoiles .

Soirée étape, tout confort.

Hotel logis de France, d'epoque, avec du style, et du charme. Accueil chaleureux. Chambre spatieuse, avec literie de qualité, et parure de lits classieux. La salle de bain, suffisamment, grande, est fonctionnelle, et de bon goût. Pas de problème de bruit. Avons passé une nuit agréable, et sans problème. La.seule chose a signaler, est qu'il n'y a pas de parking a l'hotel, mais possibilité, de se garer, 100m, plus loin, devant hôpital. Je recommande donc cet hotel.

Hotel nicht zu empfehlen

Empfang und Bedienung waren zwar freundlich, aber das Haus verdient eindeutig höchstens 2 Sterne; woher kommen die angegebenen drei? Die Preise sind für die Leistung um mindestens 25% zu hoch. (Ein kurz vorher in Dijon benutztes 2-Sterne-Hotel war viel billigerer und wesentlich besser.)

Très bonne cuisine. Très bon accueil. Chouettes chambres. Nous avions réservé une chambre familiale; pour cause de problème technique, celle-ci était indisponible. L'hôtel nous a donc spontanément offert deux chambres pour le prix de la chambre à 4. Normal mais néanmoins élégant. En revanche, la 1ère impression de l'extérieur donne une impression d'abandon, notamment les grilles rouillées aux fenêtres du RDC. TB séjour globalement.
