Chambre correcte, parking fermé disponible

Hôtel correcte avec parking fermée. Chambre spacieuse, grand lit confortable. Dommage que les chambres devant sont un peu bruillantes avec le tram et le ramassage poubelles. Restaurations a proximité.

Séjour professionnel

Hotel bien. Horaires de la réception limités. J’ai souhaité réserver un autre sejour, à la suite de celui-ci : le tarif avait augmenté de plus de 40% "c’est la loi de l’offre et la demande" m’a-t-on répondu ! Pas très correct.
