I was worried by some negative reviews here but this place is actually quite nice. Undergoing a complete repaint inside and out when I stayed. I found a place which is obviously striving to be the best it can become and it is right in the centre of the city. My room was very quiet and I will be using this hotel on my next visit to Rouen.

Hotel close to river and city centre.
The staff were very helpful and professional, the lift was new and the breakfast was of a reasonable quality and good choice. However the hotel required a lot of TLC and needed refurbishment particularly in the hallway and rooms/bathrooms.

Although in an excellent location for visiting Rouen, the hotel is right by busy roads so very noisy, especially given the heat and no air con. Room was small but adequate. Car parking was very handy.

Rouen overnight
Excellent situation. Easy walking to hisroric old town and many restaurants. Hotel was very clean, staff friendly. Needed a pass Sanataire to have breakfast. (Or negative test result) Room was small but adequate for our overnight stay. Shower was over bath. Did have a kettle and tea/coffee supplies.

Comfortable Hotel in Central Rouen
24 hr reception made this an ideal stopover and the central location was great for walking to the bars and restaurants. Major building projects on the nearby quayside are affecting the approach with the main road closed.

The hotel was a building site, building work going on everywhere when we arrived, we were not aware of this when we made the booking, the manager was unhelpful and rude when we complained as were most of the reception desk staff except one, the room was scruffy and very tired, the lift didn't work throughout our stay and our room was on the top (4th) floor, the toilet in our room was especially dirty, the air conditioning, climate control didn't work, the stairwells and corridors had lots of large boxes ladders and other building materials stacked in them, cables were exposed throughout the corridors and builders were working all over the hotel, breakfast on the one day we had it was poor and overcrowded. We were told by the manager to find another hotel if we didn't like it but the hotel staff would not help in this task, even though we were foreign and did not speak the language. Overall we were very dissapointed and angry that we had been miss sold this hotel by Expedia and it ruined our stay.

Hotel having some renovations but did not disturb or interfere with us. Location was perfect for sightseeing the river and the beautiful town of Rouen. Staff were really helpful when asked about directions and suggestions. We didn’t eat there so can’t comment on the food but the room was Comfortable and clean - good value for a short break.

Rouen renovations
Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean but basic which is reflected in the price. Unfortunately for us, lots of renovation going on when we were there. Car park, lobby and corridors resembled a building site. Well situated with just a 5 minute walk to the old market square and main shopping street. Breakfast was basic but adequate.

Unclean room
Turned up late at night with our child, welcomed ok.went to find it in cleaned from the previous guests. Got another room which was a triple, not the family room we paid for. This room the shower was broken. Offered free breakfast but because we had already paid for the breakfast through hotel.com there was nothing they could do. Not really a compensation due to waiting for 20 min for a room that sadder from what we paid for.
