From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. The bellboy immediately unloaded our car with a friendly chat, allowing us as a family to fully focus on checking in. Afterwards, a very kind lady welcomed us and personally guided us to the elevator. The hotel’s interior may be a bit dated, but everything is well-kept and spotless. Breakfast was good for this class; the coffee wasn’t really to my taste, but that’s a personal matter. What truly stood out was the stunning view from the breakfast room at the top – absolutely amazing and will be back.

We stayed in the hotel last week and we enjoyed the location. We were also happy to fit our large truck into the underground car park. The hotel room was very good. We loved the comfortable bed and the table in the room where my husband and I could work on properly. The shower was great and I personally loved the bathroom amenities. the hotel room was very clean and we thank the housekeeping team for their hard work. We loved the flower display in the entrance. The flowers and colours made me happy. We loved the silk scarfs and ties all over the hotels. The view from the breakfast room was fabulous. We could not eat in the restaurant as it was closed on Sunday but we found a fabulous brasserie around the corner. Thanks.

A superb location and in general very friendly staff. The hotel must be built in the seventies and people have kept trying to update the building but lets be honest this an old building and the lobby is a complete mess and confusion for a so called French luxury hotel. Breakfast was excellent and the bar is very nice. The gym is in a function room with a few bits of equipment dotted around….. The rooms need a big upgrade but amenities are fine. As stated a great location and overall good value…. Cheers
