Situated 50 minutes from Le Shuttle
Pros:

Ideal location to stay one night prior to catching the Shuttle. Unfortunately the restaurant wasn’t open on a Monday so I can’t comment on the food. The rooms were beautifully decorated with a very comfortable bed.

Cons:

The stairs were steep so made use of the lift

Super Hotel, aber weit vom Stadtzentrum entfernt.
Pros:

Sehr neues, sauberes Hotel mit sehr bequemen Betten und sehr weicher Bettwäsche. Man kann zwischen den guten Buffets von zwei verschiedenen Hotels wählen, die sich eine Lobby teilen.

Cons:

Das Parken hat 50€ pro Nacht gekostet. Wenn man nicht mit dem Auto kommt, dann spielt das keine Rolle. Für uns waren es 100€ Parkgebühren bei 2 Übernachtungen
