Each room has individual air-conditioning, Tea & Coffee facilities, Mini Bar, Safe, Satelite TV and WIFI or high speed internet connection.
The hotel also has its own restaurant which serves traditional French cuisine, however, I did not try this as I like to get out and about when visiting another country and not be confined to a hotel.
The main reception is very welcoming, as you walk in through the main entrance to the hotel the reception is directly in front of you with the hotel bar just to the left, more about the bar area later. The receiption desk is staffed 24 hours per day and the staff in the hotel speak the following languages:- English,French,German, Italian and Spanish so you can almost certainly be sure to be able communicate your needs. Check -in is very quick and the staff are effecient took no longer than 5 minutes to do this.
The rooms where a pleasant surprise - the hotel was last re furbished in 2004 and the rooms where very neutrally decorated and more spacious than I expected. My room was one with a double bed so whether this made any difference to the general appearance of space I do not know as did not see a room where there where 2 singles. There is a seating area in the room which is 2 chairs and small table but sufficient size to place a magazine and a drink on it without too much problem. There was a good choice for the complimentary tea & coffee whcih also included hot chocolate and this was refilled devery day.
The maid service is every day with the towels also changed every day and no problems where experienced here.
The hotel restuarant and also the same room where breakfast is served is pleasently decorated and of a reasonable size and we had no problems in gettting seated for breakfast. There range of food on offer for breakfast was excellent with continental and English both available with fresh fuit and cereals also.
In the main lobby of the hotel there is, along with the reception and bar area a business center - as they call it which is actually 2 PCs and printing facilities for a small fee.
Other Business Service the hotel offer are:-
Copying Courier Service email & Internet Facsimile
The hotel bar is situated just to the left of the main entrance and is furnished to give the impresssion of a casual and relaxed atmosphere - the bar is not huge but sufficient for a quick drink at the end of the day. Prices are what you would normally expect for a hotel so no shocks there. There is a wide ranges of drinks available.
