"I have to begin this review by saying that I do not understand how it’s possible that this hotel has four stars. It’s simply not in the right class.
The front desk staff were very welcoming and pleasant, the air conditioning in the room was exceptionally good (which was needed during this heatwave), but other than that, the rest of the experience was simply okay.
The hotel is in need of renovation in general (very dated decor), but the worst of it is that the door to the room will not close properly. There was a gap between the door jamb and the door even when the door was closed and locked, resulting in in sound-proofing. It also seems like a security issue to me, and it’s shocking that hotel management allows this to remain in this condition. In addition, the room’s refrigerator smelled like Camembert when I first opened it, and I had to get cleaning staff to clean it out for me. One of the coffee cups had splattered coffee stains on the outside, so I’m not sure how thoroughly the cups are cleaned between guests either. The bottom sheet on the bed had black marks on it, and the mattress sagged and was simply not up to 4-star hotel standards.
This hotel room did have access to a terrace/balcony (the only standard room with this feature), but it was not maintained.
All in all, I had the impression of a hotel hanging on to a 4-star rating that simply doesn’t apply anymore."
"Everything from lovely. A boutique type of hotel. A small pool which was lovely considering it was 33 degrees. Not really enough sunbeds but done their best considering the size of place. Lovely calming place to be and staff were great. Room was lovely with bathrobes/slippers. Super large bed and very comfortable. Couldnt have asked to change anything and would definitely come back"
"We stayed in a large room for one night - I had chosen the hotel on its design as shown on Expedia - it’s been updated, from industrial to slightly tacky with a profusion of multicolor grotesque chandeliers… and the courtyard has been transformed into the breakfast room. Not my taste anymore! It would be great to have updated pictures for the advert.
The staff was lovely.
The breakfast had an abundance of choice - great - just a shame that the pains au chocolat were not fresh.
Apart from that, the room and bathroom were very large and, most importantly with the incredibly hot weather, the room aircon was working!"
"This was an excellent hotel in every way. The location is excellent, the staff was super helpful and friendly, the rooms were well out fitted and extremely clean, and the lobby bar was small but appreciated. Our room looked as if it had been recently redone as did the rest of the hotel. I would stay here again anytime."
