Pros:

L'hôtel est idéalement placé proche de la gare et du centre ville. Les déplacements à pied et en Bibus sont faciles.
Nous avons été prévenu d'un soirée techno dans la salle de l'hôtel et nous avons été déplacés dans une autre chambre aux étages supérieurs. C'est très honnête de la part du personnel.
Le restaurant offre une carte simple mais de qualité.
Le petit-déjeuner au buffet est très bien fourni.

J'aimerais a minima des excuses...
Cons:

Pas d'électricité du séjour. Évacuation incendie et coupure d'électricité très mal gérées. Aucune information spontanée. Aux demandes sur le rétablissement de l'électricité, des réponses évasives ou "ce sera réglé dans 10 minutes". Aucune excuse ni aucun geste commercial proposé. Politesse d'ensemble perfectible...

Pros:

Di fianco al Bouillon Georges, un ristorante da non perdere

Cons:

L’ascensore era rotto. Faceva un caldo infernale. Ci hanno assegnato una stanza al terzo piano e nessuno si è proposto di aiutarci a portare le valigie in camera. Colazione non all’altezza

Pros:

- Le parquet dans la chambre
- L'accueil
- La vue
- La décoration (dont le grand miroir !)
- L'agencement de la chambre

Cons:

- Détail : le fait que les agents d'entretien aient toqué à la porte à 9h00 alors que j'avais mis le message que je n'avais pas besoin que la chambre soit faite (et que je partais le jour-même
