Great balcony corner views from our Room #10. The Christmas market had started the day we arrived and it snowed that night (in late November). Complete with the imposing sight of the Notre Dame Cathedral, it was a near perfect stay in Rouen.

Great location, in the old town right next to bars, cafes, and the beach. A little noisy, since right under a restaurant/bar. But it was worth it to be so close to everything.

Location on Cathedral Doorstep

Very nice service, easy autonomous check-in, lovely staff. Quiet, staid and traditional feel which appeals to an older / veteran traveller, this place ticked all the boxes. Bring earplugs if you're coming for more than 1 night- the show on the Cathedral starts at 11 and it is loud. It was very nice staying here, Rouen has so much to see

The hotel is in an ideal location right next to the cathedral. However, the rooms smell like mildew. I think the bathroom drains need to be cleaned. The sheets also smelled like mildew so perhaps the washing machine needs to be cleaned.

Liked: Cleanliness

The room was tiny, without any decoration, just bare walls. It felt like we were staying at a monastery. We chose the hotel for the location, right on the cathedral square. We had warning that there’s no parking at the hotel, but no warning that it’s completely inaccessible by car. I had to park five blocks away and walk to the hotel to check in, and ask for instructions where to park. The closest public parking structure, at the Cathedral Parking, was very difficult to find. Don’t count on Google Maps telling you how to get there. And then we had to haul our luggage from the parking to the hotel.
