We visited Clermont for the Tigers vs Clermont rugby game. We wanted some self catering option in order to reduce the meal spend (bfast and lunch self catered saved some euro's). The room smelt very strobngly of stale cigarettes and was not particularly clean. Car parking was also extra. Location quite good. The super market underneath was a bonus.
Clermont is a good city to visit, the Rugby fans were fantastic and very hospitable, but I would not recommend this hotel

This hotel is not easy to find since it is above a Champion supermarket right next to Place Jaude in the centre of town. Location is good with lots of shopping and dining possibilities in easy walking distance. The university is also not far away.
However, don't expect a romantic hideawy in the old part of Clermont-Ferrand - this is a hotel where you just go to sleep and leave your luggage, nothing more, but also nothing less. The rooms are simple but functional with a little kitchenette and a very simple bathroom. A great plus is the wireless internet connection - ask at the reception for a free access code. Cleanliness in my room was average; breakfast is simple but included in the room rate which is the real unbeatable plus of this hotel. There will not be many others with such a good rate in a similarly central location.
