HÔTEL PAUL & PIA ^{* * *}

I have not stayed at this hotel, but I would like to share my experience regarding their attitude. They redirected our reservation to partner hotels with lower ratings, using “technical issues” as an excuse. Even though I stated that I did not want this, they failed to provide a proper explanation and insisted that there were no other options available. I suggest this hotel be more honest with its customers. It is also questionable why a hotel with “technical issues” continues to accept reservations. On the dates they claimed to have technical issues, I saw recent customer reviews on online platforms, which made it clear that this was not the real reason. Being treated like a fool is truly disappointing!

Hôtel correct

This is a very cute hotel, very well situated to the train station, and not far from the old center.

When you walk in, you’re immediately struck by all the colors of the lobby and social areas. The staff of the desk are very welcoming and accommodating. The hotel does have a very functional economy vibe, but not a big deal.

Though the room is a bit small, it’s comfortable enough. It’s an inviting room, and clearly well maintained. Again, this room is very colorful, but it is very also functional and economy feeling; the furniture all seems to be IKEA stuff. In the end, not a huge problem. The one oddity that stood out was the glass shower that is in the room, which could be very offputting to people. We didn’t mind it too much, but not everybody wants to shower in front of the other person they’re sharing the room with.

There is no real bathroom to speak of. The shower is encased in glass, and then the sink is outside that, basically across from the bed. There is, however, the water closet with the toilet, which is standard for France.

There is a small desk area to use, and there is a safe in the room. However, if you want coffee or tea, you have to go downstairs to the kitchen area, which is part of the lobby area. That’s a little bit inconvenient, but not horrible. There wasn’t any kind of wardrobe or anything to put clothes away, just pegs for hanging stuff, or the bench below for suitcases.

One really great thing about this hotel, though, is that they have small prepared meals in a refrigerator that you can help yourself to, and then pay for at the desk, and then heat up in the microwave if you want. I tried a couple of them, and they were very tasty. That’s a wonderful thing to have if you’re feeling hungry later at night, or you’ve come back to the hotel for a rest, and realize you’re feeling a bit hungry. They even have one or two vegetarian options.

One minus was the TV. Again, the TV seems to be an issue in many French hotels. This TV did have a Netflix app, but it kept saying there was no Internet connection when trying to open it, which was weird. That said, the hotel‘s Wi-Fi was very good. It’s more or less public Wi-Fi; the hotel doesn’t seem to have its own private network. But, it was very strong, and never seemed to have connection issues.

All in all, I would certainly consider coming back to this hotel.

J’ai séjourné 2 nuits dans cet hôtel avec ma fille de 12 ans, presque rien à redire. L’emplacement proche de la gare et de la vieille ville est idéal. Un petit super marché juste de l’autre côté de la route offre tous les appoints nécessaires (brosse à dent oubliée par exemple ????). Notre chambre donnait sur la rue mais les fenêtres sont très bien insonorisées donc nous n’entendions rien. La chambre était petite mais parfaite pour nous 2. Propreté de la chambre impeccable. Décoration de l’hôtel super jolie. Même la bagagerie est incroyable ???? 2 petits bémols : le prix (très) augmenté pour les fêtes… et les tables du petit déjeuner qui n’étaient pas propres les 2 matins (nous y sommes allées tard). Les clients sont supposés débarrasser et la plupart ne le font pas (allez savoir pourquoi…), et le peu de tables qui étaient débarrassées n’avaient pas reçu de coup de chiffon. Dommage parce que tout le reste était super et le personnel très sympa, malgré une clientèle souvent désagréable, nous en avons été témoins…
Je recommande +++
