to get started.

Great hotel for a few nights. Clean rooms and good location in city near Perrache station.

Dominic, United States of America

Nice small hotel close to the metro station and central square. Clean. Double room I've got was not big but well organised. Very nice receptionists. Despite city centre location the hotel was quiet during a night.

Grzegorz, Poland

Nice location very close to the train station and the staff was friendly and helpful

William, United States of America

I had a good stay at this hotel. I usually ask for a quiet room and finally got one this time. I slept very well. Building is old but everything appears to be newly renovated with lots of extra blankets and linen. I really did like the two reading lights on each side of the bed (see photo). Floors were done in a unique unfinished look but that was ok, no splinters. There is someone at the entrance 24 hours a day and I got stopped once coming in because the attendant didn't recognize me. Very nice and comfortable lobby and dining area.

G, Germany

Nice themed decoration throughout the hotel. Great location close to the city centre. The room was a decent size for us all with four separate beds. It was very clean and the towels were very soft.

Paul, United Kingdom

Great place for this money. Very friendly personnel on reception. Close to the center

Iryna, Ukraine

The location is good and the room is clean and relaxing. The Staff is always smiling and helpful.

Marilia, Italy

Very good very helpful and very hospitable personnel. Thank you very much for help with our luggage!!! It finally found us in Avignon))) Good breakfast with fruits, yogurts, ham, cheese and croissants offered with some discount) Very cozy lobby and dining room. The room was very simple but had all the necessary: very comfortable beds, very good shower, linen and towels were new, clean and fresh. Very good location to visit the center of the city: all the sightseeings were achievable on foot. All was very pleasant and left only the best impressions.

Ksenia, Russia

Staff were the best we had in Europe and the hotel exceeded expectations. Room was lovely

Brendan, Australia

Bed was really comfy, with lovely bedding and a duvet. Wifi good, staff very helpful and friendly. Breakfast good and they provided hot milk for my coffee when I asked.

“Nicely located with a nice staff but the worst room ever”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Economy Single Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The room was the worst and the smallest that I have ever stayed in in my life and I am 62 years old. The only furniture in the room was a bed and a chair with no place to even hang up ones coat. Your only option was to place your belongings on the floor. The bathroom was even worse in that the shower measured .60 meters (less than 2 feet) at its widest and for this they charge 90 euros.
눇Nice location very close to the train station and the staff was friendly and helpful

“Comfortable stay at a secure hotel”

눉The bathroom was very small and tight, including space in the shower but that is the same in a lot of these older buildings in France. Be aware of your surroundings in that area if traveling at night.
눇I had a good stay at this hotel. I usually ask for a quiet room and finally got one this time. I slept very well. Building is old but everything appears to be newly renovated with lots of extra blankets and linen. I really did like the two reading lights on each side of the bed (see photo).
