6.4
Mixed to negative comments: several guests reported unpleasant odors (cigarette and other smells), average housekeeping and issues such as a malfunctioning toilet flush and only middling room cleanliness.
Service
8.9
Generally praised: multiple reviews highlight friendly, attentive and helpful staff. A few isolated negatives (staff laughed at a guest; limited latitude for commercial gestures) but overall service is a strong positive for the hotel.
Location
9.6
Consistently excellent: many guests mention a top, central location close to the Grand Place and train stations; repeatedly cited as the hotel's main asset.
Room Quality
7
Mixed: rooms are sometimes small, a few are dated or have small bathrooms, some have nice balconies; reports of doors closing poorly and minor maintenance issues (old hotel feel, fridge issues).

Mixed availability: AC appreciated in some rooms, basic minibar and hair dryer present, but guests noted no room service, early bar closing, a non-working lift for some, and limited luggage/valet conveniences.
Value for Money
7.6
Generally fair for central location: some guests felt price matched location and season, while others found breakfast or room condition not fully commensurate with cost.
Food and Beverage
6.9
Mixed to slightly below average: breakfast praised for pastry selection but criticized for limited savory/vegetable options, some poor in-room breakfast experiences and overall inconsistent quality.
Overall Experience
9.5

Fijne locatie maar de prijs- kwaliteit verhouding is totaal uit balans.
Pros:

De ligging is prima in het centrum van Lille

Cons:

De kamers zijn oud en slecht onderhouden, matig schoongemaakt, overal stickers met waarschuwingen en aanbevelingen. Koffie op de kamer als een zakje met poeder. Dat kan niet wanneer je net als ik €340 voor één nacht hebt betaald. Badkamer slecht onderhouden. De prijs- kwaliteit verhouding is hier totaal uit balans.

Mise à part la femme de ménage qui foutait un peu le bazar avec des bruits en fin de matinée, mais bon on comprend qu’elle doit travailler cette dame
