Pour un séjour trÚs agréable à Gien

Notre « suite classique » (rĂ©servĂ©e au prix d’un placard Ă  balai dans une grande ville), est une belle et grande chambre avec vue sur la Loire, dotĂ©e d’un trĂšs grand lit confortable, d’une entrĂ©e indĂ©pendante et de deux salles de bain ! Parfaitement Ă©quipĂ©e, la chambre comporte aussi deux bureaux et un canapĂ©, ainsi que la climatisation dont nous n’avons pas besoin en ce mois de mai plutĂŽt frais. La dĂ©coration est classique, voire un peu vieillotte, mais c’est ce qui nous plait ! Le petit dĂ©jeuner est servi dans une salle agrĂ©able qui donne aussi sur la Loire. Il est simple, mais bon. Le pain, notamment, est excellent ! Le personnel est d’une gentillesse et d’une prĂ©venance remarquables. Il suffit de traverser la route pour se promener agrĂ©ablement le long de la Loire. Le centre-ville est accessible Ă  pied en moins de 10 minutes. Le petit plus est la possibilitĂ© de se restaurer jusqu’à 21h30 avec des bocaux de qualitĂ© proposĂ©s Ă  un prix raisonnable (25 € pour entrĂ©e + plat + dessert) et des vins de la rĂ©gion. Les seuls petits dĂ©fauts de l’hĂŽtel sont : - Eloignement de la gare de Gien (30 minutes Ă  pied. Heureusement, les services de taxi sont disponibles et efficaces). Si on est en voiture, on peut se garer facilement juste en face de l'hĂŽtel. - Pas d’ascenseur, alors que notre chambre est au troisiĂšme Ă©tage. Heureusement, nous n’avons des affaires que pour trois jours. - Une seule carte pour accĂ©der Ă  la chambre, ce qui n’est pas toujours pratique Ă  deux.

Attention : nous avons pris 2 chambres doubles ( nous Ă©tions 4 ) et celle du 2eme Ă©tage n’avait absolument rien Ă  voir avec la chambre du 3eme ( mĂȘme prix !) Chambre du 3eme vraiment plus petite et une odeur dĂ©sagrĂ©able (comme du linge qui a mal sechĂ©), moquette tachĂ©e, sdb vĂ©tuste Choisissez une chambre au 2eme, un peu plus moderne, plus grande avec des petits balcons ( mĂȘme dans la grande salle de bain) et odeur de propre Je ne comprends vraiment pas qu’elles soient au mĂȘme tarif Petit dĂ©jeuner Ă  13,50€ et taxe de sĂ©jour Ă  18,50€ pour 4 sur 2 nuits En fait tout ceci me semble un peu cher pour Gien ( on n’est pas dans un lieu exceptionnellement touristique non plus !)

Mauvaise expérience

Nous avions rĂ©servĂ© et payĂ© la veille de notre arrivĂ©e pour 2 nuits.

Chambre correcte. TrĂšs mauvaise surprise le lendemain soir Ă  notre retour vers 22 h .... La chambre n'avait pas Ă©tĂ© faite. Exactement comme nous l'avions laissĂ©e le matin Ă  notre dĂ©part. Le lendemain lorsque je l'ai signalĂ© Ă  la rĂ©ception, la personne Ă  l'accueil m'a dit qu'elle le signalerait Ă  la direction sans autres explications. Qu'en pensez vous ?
