Novotel dans la moyenne

Si vous venez en train c’est parfait, hôtel en face de la gare MAIS si vous venez en voiture alors mieux vaut aller ailleurs. Peu de places autour, stationnement payant, et parking de l’hôtel pas pratique et très étroit pour les véhicules d’aujourd’hui. Tarif : 11€ la nuit. Sinon personnel ok, hôtel et chambres propres, wifi ok. La chambre est classique Novotel, sans surprise excepté une bouteille en verre vide dans le minibar… ça c’est inédit dans un Novotel et sans intérêt ! Aucun produit de courtoisie… donc une mini bouteille d’evian aurait été la bienvenue.

De passage à Saint Étienne !

La chambre est spacieuse, très propre et sécurisée. Mais quelques prestations sont à revoit : matelas trop mous , flacon de gel douche vide dans la douche et un lit n'avait pas de drap housse. Ces petits détails semblent anodins mais je m'attendais à mieux de la part d'un hotel 4 étoiles.
