This is a hotel located on a business park on the outskirts of Valenciennes, and it could also do with a lick of paint on the exterior, but it fulfils its niche perfectly well. The room rates are reasonable, breakfast selection is decent, evening meals are available and reasonably-priced. The staff are friendly and most also speak English. The room itself was clean and tidy, nothing to fault there. It would have been helpful to have more than one electrical socket, and the shower was a bit feeble and the water not always very warm, but overall this hotel met our needs for the three days we spent there.
