ROCKY POP ^{* * * *}

Lieux d’activité sympa pour boire un coup ou manger un bout avec ou sans ses enfants

Nous avons passé un week-end fantastique au RockyPop Grenoble avec notre petit Jules ! Cet hôtel est un vrai paradis pour les familles : tout est pensé pour les enfants, avec des jeux extérieurs sur la terrasse qui ont fait le bonheur de Jules pendant qu’on profitait d’un repas en toute tranquillité. La déco rétro 80’s est tellement fun, avec ses néons, ses flamants roses et ses touches décalées, on adore ! L’emplacement est parfait, à deux pas du centre-ville et du téléphérique pour la Bastille, tout se fait à pied. Les chambres sont confortables et l’ambiance générale est hyper conviviale. Un grand merci à l’équipe pour ce séjour mémorable, on a hâte de découvrir vos autres hôtels à Chamonix, Flaine ou bientôt Marseille ! ????

Avis sur le bar uniquement, lieu sympa mais je retire 1 étoile pour les prix élevés, 11€ l’aperol spritz

This is a fun, unique hotel! We thought the decor was really fun but some might find it a little weird.... red neon lights for room numbers, Asteroids carpet, various dinosaur heads on the wall and lots of funny signs! |We stayed 4 nights to enjoy hiking and biking in the area and were not disappointed in the hotel or the city of Grenoble. We stayed in a Superior room so we had a little extra space compared to a regular room. There was a king bed, a dining room type table (a little weird) and a bathroom with a separate toilet room. There was a little counter with a Keurig a hot water pot and a mini-fridge. There is still and sparkling water available at the front desk with refillable glass bottles available for use. |Every employee in the hotel was friendly and willing to speak English with us since we don't speak French. We asked to borrow glasses to enjoy a bottle of champagne we brought along. The bartender insisted on preparing an ice bucket for us and invited us to enjoy it in the garden. We had so much fun playing Petanque for the first time, thanks to some locals who invited us to play. There are also ping pong tables, vintage video games, outdoor kids play area and karaoke rooms available for use. We enjoyed pizza in the bar one evening and had drinks in the outdoor garden as well. They had strolling musicians one night and there was an all-you-can-eat BBQ that smelled wonderful. Breakfast was typical European style buffet with breads, yogurt, cereal, eggs, cheese, etc. We didn't eat dinner at the hotel but it seemed to be popular. We enjoyed the little restaurant just across the street and there are several others on the same block. There are two grocery stores on the block if you want to pick up snacks or drinks. |We rented bikes from the hotel one day and had a nice ride along the river. The bikes worked well and were comfortable. We asked for some hiking recommendations as well and the staff was very helpful. We used the sauna one afternoon which is a nice feature. |We did have a snag with our room not being cleaned one day. There was either some miscommunication on our part or it got missed once (and almost twice). A manager got it all sorted out for us and it wasn't a big deal. |We would stay here again and would recommend it to people looking for something a little different from the standard hotel.

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights with a somewhat mixed review:||Positives|- room was a decent size with twin beds provided rather than double (as requested)|- receptionists were nice and friendly ||Negatives|- room was ‘ready’ but when we got there there was someone in it fixing a light|- the TV and air conditioning worked intermittently. Air conditioning ‘locked’ one night & temp got to 26.7|- the restaurant was supposed to be serving pizza but when we got there they said they weren’t, despite pizzas being served to other people. Generally the service was offhand and fairly rude. The food was poor in my opinion (for example, veggie burger involved a wrap, 5 falafel balls, a tiny bit of onion and sauce & a whole bowl of raw cabbage!)|- the breakfast was functional (and expensive at 17 euros each) rather than lovely. One day no hot meat or cups available. No food labelling for allergens. |- hotel styling was somewhat bizarre. Unclear whether trying to be a nice 4 star hotel or more of a hostel- type ‘hippy’ place.
