“Helpful staff, good location for eating!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2011

Myself and two friends stayed in the three smallest (most inexpensive) rooms for two nights at the end of November for 75 Euro each, plus another 8 for breakfast.

Pros:
-- My room was ample in size, clean, with well-maintained fittings, decor, etc.
-- Despite being right next to a 6-lane road, the double-glazing meant that I could not hear traffic at all. Presumably in summer you can keep the windows closed and use air-conditioning.
-- The staff on the Reception (one of whom is English) desk were pleasant and helpful. They offered the use of umbrellas when it seemed likely to rain.
-- There is free wi-fi, though I did not use it.
-- The 8 Euro breakfast was ample: coffee/tea/chocolate, a croissant, a bread roll, jam, butter, orange juice. For an extra 4 Euro you can have cold meats, cheeses, yoghurt, boiled eggs, etc.
-- The location is next to a busy road, but only 5 minutes walk from some of the better restaurants, and about 10-15 minutes from the centre of town and the cathedral.

Cons:
-- None really, unless you are looking for somewhere under 75 Euro per night.

Room Tip: Rooms overlooking the road have double-glazing, and may as a result be even be quieter than the ones...

“Friendly little hotel, a bit worn around the edges”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights on a visit to see friends. The best things were the friendly, English-speaking reception staff, free (unguarded) parking lot just opposite the hotel, and an easy location within 10 minutes' walk to the very centre of Reims (there is also a tram stop just outside the hotel). Were pleasantly surpised that the location on a busy junction didn't mean sleepless nights in our street-facing room. The decor was a bit outdated, and the breakfast was standard French stuff (rolls with jam or cheese, tea/coffee/hot chocolate, cereal, juice). Also, the shower mixer in our spacious bathroom didn't work - we got either ice-cold or near-boiling water. Otherwise, a pleasant experience. One of the lesser-known champagne houses, Charles de Cazenove, is next door, and we also had a nice little walk in the old cemetery on the other side of the junction. A new indoor market hall is being built on the other side of the road junction too.

“excellent service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 October 2011

people found this review helpful

We spent a weekend in Reims at the end of september and had a fabulous time.
The city is worth a visit, and when you do, this hotel is definately a good choice. It is situated very close to the centre so everything is at walking distance. The rooms are good, the double windows make sure all noise gets filtered. A free parking lot is opposite the hotel and it is quite big so no troubles finding parking space.
The staff is excellent!!!! We had some problems with our bank after paying the bill, the bank made a mistake, none of which was actually the hotels fault, but they were very helpfull in assisting us to solve this .
If we would go back to Reims we would most definately choose this hotel again.

“A Bonnie Wee Place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2011

This hotel offers good value for money. The staff are friendly and helpful, in particular Rachel. The rooms are spacious and clean. The hotel is located within easy walking distance from the city centre, restaurants, train station and the Centre de Congres. I would recommend this establishment to others.

Room Tip: Could do a lot worse than room 24

“Decent place, good location, helpful staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2011

person found this review helpful

This is a basic three star hotel, but is quite decent for the price. It's a short stroll to the cathedral, to the main place, and to the Mumm caves. The dinner recommendations were good, parking is nearby and free, an there is a tram stop outside. Staff were helpful and friendly.
