Convenient to our target destination, the Puy de Dome. Built on a very steep roadway, no convenient place to park to offload/ load baggage. Parking lot across the road in a ravine, difficult to access. Rooms redefined "small". Need to ask for a key for the room safe. Staff were hospitable and eager to please. Bedding was comfortable, sheeting satisfactory, all was very clean. Our room was at the back of the hotel and all was quiet, no street noise. Restaurant food was of sufficient quantity, tasty and at a reasonable price

Nice hotel with pleasant and helpful staff. We were able to use a garage for our motorcycles while we stayed - very useful and no extra charge! Good location for Royatonic and efficient bus service into Clarmont-Ferrand city centre. The car park and garage are based at the rear of the hotel and accessed via some quite steep steps - not a problem if fit and able - otherwise stop outside the front to drop your bags off! Some rooms have been updated, but all clean and tidy - housestaff attended too each day. Overall a good stay and good location for touring the surrounding area.

Very ordinary place, not much to like

The rooms are old, the walls are thin, the internet cuts out often. The guy on reception is disinterested and unhelpful, nothing much in the vicinity to do. Do yourself a favour and stay somewhere else.

As a stop over hotel, this was a great find. Our mattress was as good as one in a 5 star hotel, meaning we had a fabulous sleep. The staff were engaging, helpful and attentive - just what was needed after a tricky journey!
