Wedding anniversary 1 night get away. Well worth it.
Pros:

Place very quaint and cosy. Breakfast was simple but nice. Room on the small side but bathroom ok and plenty of hot water.
Location a big bonus: off the noisy streches but close to everything. Walk to train station a slow 15 min. To cathedral 10 min, to Old Market 10 min. Most important: the faboulos restaurant "La Couronne"is in the vicinity(on the Old Market). Had a magnificent dinner there, walls oozing history as the place opened as an Auberge"in 1345. Excellent service, very nice food, and the "house" 18 yr old calvados was.....gooooood.

Cons:

We stayed i room 33, top floor and no lift ( to be expected in a building 100+ years old-that was not a problem). Problem is noise from neighboring rooms. Not because the walls are thin, but there is an emergency escape door between this room and the one nxt to it, and everything can be heard.

Overall, we enjoyed this quaint boutique hotel!
Pros:

The location of this property was ideal! It is within walking distance to many of the historical sites in Rouen. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I appreciated the transparency in the 'important details' section of their listing. We knew exactly what we were booking when we booked our stay.

Cons:

Arrival instructions were vague, which made our first few moments at the property unnecessarily stressful. We received a message the day we arrived letting us know that if we arrived after 8:30pm we would need a code to access the property. When we arrived at 6:45pm, we found the gate to the courtyard locked and we had no code to gain access. We were able to reach the front desk by phone within 10 minutes, but providing the code in advance would have made our initial moments more enjoyable, especially after a long day of travel. Also, if you would like the reduced parking rate of 15 EUROS bring your parking chit from the public parking lot with you to the hotel, so they can exchange it for a ticket at the reduce rate. Otherwise you are paying the full rate of 29 EUROS. This is not clearly explained and unfortunately we had to pay the full rate as we left the parking chit in our car.

Pros:

L'hôtel est très bien situé et permet la visite du vieux Rouen à pied. Le bâtiment est ancien et a un joli cachet. La chambre est propre et agréable, le lit suffisamment confortable. Il y a peu de bruit (notre chambre ne donnait pas sur la rue). Le petit déjeuner est assez peu varié mais excellent (vrai jus d'orange, yaourt fermier, ...). Bon rapport qualité/prix.

Cons:

La description de l'hôtel ne mentionne pas le fait qu'il est inaccessible en voiture, même pour déposer les bagages (zone piétonne). Un grand parking souterrain public est situé à proximité mais nous avons dû y monter deux étages par l'escalier avec nos valises. Arrivés à l'hôtel, nous apprenons que notre chambre est située au 2e étage ... sans ascenseur. Heureusement, la dame de la réception nous a aimablement aidés en portant une valise. Le wifi n'est pas très performant.

A charming family run hotel
Pros:

A lovely looking hotel in the heart of the old city. There is underground secure parking across the road, the hotel is easy to find and the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fresh and delicious served in the delightful tea room that is the heart of this hotel.

Cons:

The room and the bathroom are a bit worn and dated but we felt this was fairly reflected in the room rate.
