Jeroen Netherlands

Very cosy hotel good located near the park. 15 min. walk to City Center. The rooms are stylish and very clean. The staff is very friendly.

Nicole Germany

Room was immaculate as was the breakfast room. Nice location by the river. Beautiful building and lovely artwork inside. Breakfast was 15 Euros each but plenty of food and good service.

Iain United Kingdom

The location was good. The hotel is a mansion that has been lovingly restored. Great attention has been paid to decor and comfort. Although there is no lift, staff carried our suitcases up and down. They were great!

Raková Czech Republic

Large old building with high ceilings and huge windows and six boutique rooms Right opposite the citadel/park and even though one side is on a busyish road , our room was really peaceful Wonderfully decorated with bold artistic touches Room was very quiet and dark overlooking a quiet courtyard and had lovely large windows (no annoying little red lights or horrid air con you can’t turn off! and huge windows to open as well as shutters to block out the light completely) Simple breakfast for 15 euro - or head out to one of the many cafes nearby

Claire United Kingdom

Great communication with Emmanuel, before and during the stay. Great room , location, breakfast.

Emmanuel
Subtle blend of old architecture with contemporary art, the place is quiet and peaceful. The room where breakfast is taken enjoyed a unique view of the Esplanade.
Passionate about art, culture and gastronomy, the owner will advise you to make the most of your stay in Lille.
Located in the historic city, in front of the Citadel Park (1700 hectares), 10 minutes walk from downtown. Old Lille is an area dedicated to Flemish history: shops, restaurants, bars, leisure parks and much, much more are located in the close vicinity of the establishment.It's the preferred district of travelers visiting Lille, according to comments unrelated customers.
