Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The room was quite large compared to others I've stayed in France, with comfortable amenities, but the bathroom was surprisingly small. The service was friendly, and the location couldn't have been better for exploring the city, although there were some aspects lacking. The dining experience was varied and generous, yet there were limited options to choose from. Overall, the hotel offered a great location and spacious room but had room for improvement in certain areas.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and super friendly staff. The location is perfect, close to the Cathedral and the old town, offering a great atmosphere. The dining experience was a bit overpriced for what was offered. Overall, a great value for the price.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the historic area, allowing easy access to the cathedral and local restaurants. The rooms, though small and near the lift shaft, had a mish-mash of furnishings. The service was friendly and helpful but lacked precise directions at times. The dining options were excellent, but the additional cost for breakfast was a drawback.
The hotel is a lovely place right in the heart of the charming old town of Rouen, surrounded by intriguing shops and remarkable architecture. The rooms are comfortable and perfect for two adults and two children, with the ancient front doors adding a touch of history. However, it gets quite cold at night. The service staff, though nice and friendly, can be forgetful at times. The location is superb for exploring the historical center on foot, filled with various attractions. The dining experience, while overpriced at 15Euro per person, offers a wide variety of options. The hotel has an excellent quiet inner garden, making it a peaceful retreat.
My stay at the hotel was overall a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Rouen, which made exploring the cathedral and medieval center super easy. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff anticipating our needs and being extremely friendly, while others seemed disinterested in the guests. The rooms, however, were disappointing. Despite the old charm, the lack of proper lighting, dusty interiors, and noisy plumbing from other rooms, including early morning showers, made it quite uncomfortable. The dining experience, though not bad, was not on par with the high cost associated with it.
I stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a superb location, right in the heart of charming Rouen. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although the noise from the pedestrian street could be bothersome at night. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to accommodate us. The dining options were a bit underwhelming, but the overall experience was positive.
