Rooms are old. Expensive for what you get. Wake up call was half an hour too late. Room was not cleaned; however this service was promised twice by the reception. Received a rude answer.

Des plus et des moins

Nous avons aimé l'exterieur avec sa terrasse, le lobby et la salle de bain de notre chambre. Le reste de la chambre reste vieillot (crepis sur les murs) même si la peinture a été refaite. Côté restaurant rien de sensationnel, pour ce prix il y a mieux. Le personnel est bien.

rénové, encore quelques efforts pour être au top

Bel hôtel qui s'améliore. beau restaurant et partie extérieure. Les couloirs ont été aménagés décorés et sont moins froides. Les chambres sont belles et spacieuses agréables. Manque parfois un peu d'entretien, tâches, ampoules grillées, ascenseur hors d'age. Le personnel a l'accueil un peu froid et distant, c'est dommage cela ne va pas avec le standing de l'hôtel.

La partie restaurant gâché la 'ôté, dommage.

Hôtel bien mais sans plus, et gâché en cela a cause de la partie restaurant, le tarif est plutôt dans la moyenne haute et à ces prix là, on est en droit de pouvoir manger du pain frais, ce qui n'a pas été le cas (pain congelé). Le reste du repas est dans la même lignée, bof.

Le petit déjeuner est excellent: produits locaux et de qualité, fromages, charcuteries, jus de fruits...il y en a pour tous les goûts! La chambre a une décoration classique mais le lit est vraiment confortable. La petite boutique dans le hall est originale. Nous avons passé une excellente nuit!

Bel hôtel, on s'y sens bien, restaurants sur place est sympa. Les chambres très bien rien à dire. Juste le petit dej que j'ai trouvé un peu juste dans la diversité, peu de pains différents, pas de gâteau maison tarte ou cake par exemple. Pour ce type d'hôtel je trouve que le petit dej n'est pas tout à fait satisfaisant. J'ai manqué de ce petit quelques '' choses '' pour que cela soit marquant.
