Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, while basic, were clean and comfortable with free wifi included, although a bit small. The service, especially from the young lady on duty on Sunday night, was very helpful. The location was convenient with nice dining options nearby, although pricey for drinks. The dining experience was good value for money, while the facilities were typical and adequate.
The hotel's rooms, albeit slightly cramped and basic, provided everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The service was pleasant and helpful despite seeming a bit stretched at times. The central location in picturesque Douai was ideal for a relaxing break, though drinks at the hotel were on the pricey side. The dining experience was good value for money, and the facilities met expectations.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, especially those at the back, were smaller than expected, but the continental breakfast was excellent. The service was friendly and helpful but charging double the original price for transport was disappointing. The location was convenient for the town center, with easy access to interesting features and good parking, but the hotel's own lounge and bar were too expensive. The dining experience was overall good, with a varied continental buffet, although the pricing was higher.
The hotel offers slightly more spacious rooms that are compact but very clean and functional, with free WiFi. The service is lovely, although staff members seem insistent on speaking English even when guests' French is adequate. The location is ideal, just a 5-minute walk from the Belfry, with convenient parking outside. The dining experience is adequate but could use some furnishing enhancements. The facilities are decent overall.
The hotel is ideally located in the picturesque town of Douai, just a 5-minute walk from the Belfry. The rooms, although cramped and showing signs of wear, come with free WiFi. The services provided were excellent overall, despite a language barrier issue on arrival. The dining options, while adequate, offered typical Ibis fare. The location is perfect for exploring the town, although some noise and draft issues were experienced due to the building's age.
The hotel's rooms are slightly small with low ceilings, giving a slightly claustrophobic feel, but the service provided by the friendly and helpful staff makes up for it. The ideal location near the city center and other amenities is a big plus, though the dining experience may be just adequate.
The hotel is centrally located in the picturesque town of Douai, offering a much-needed relaxing short break. While the rooms are typical Ibis style, they felt a bit cramped and worn. The staff provided friendly and helpful service, making the stay enjoyable. The dining options were typical Ibis, although the Moroccan pancakes were a nice touch. The hotel's facilities are adequate, but some areas could use a refresh.
I found the hotel to be a lovely place with some standout features but also a few drawbacks. The rooms were slightly more spacious than expected and warm enough to stay in comfortably but could benefit from facing the square. The service was a mix of insistent English-speaking staff and fantastically helpful personnel, especially a young lady who went above and beyond despite a language barrier. The location was ideal for exploring Douai, just a short walk from the Belfry, offering good parking. The dining experience, while offering good value for money, could be improved in terms of ambiance. The facilities were satisfactory overall, enhancing the stay but with some room for enhancement.
The hotel is ideally located in the center of town, making it a convenient spot for exploring Douai. The rooms, although small with low ceilings, slightly lacked space due to a poor conversion, but overall, it was a decent stay with friendly and efficient staff. Dining options were satisfactory, offering a continental buffet with delicious warm Madeleines. The facilities, although limited, were acceptable for a short stay.
Staying in the attic room was a bit cramped, and the mattress often slid off the bed easily, but the hotel's location facing the square was a plus. The service was a mix of excellent and overworked staff, and the dining experience was enjoyable. The facilities were adequate but compromised by poor conversion work. The high prices deterred us from buying drinks at the hotel, yet the helpful staff and convenient location compensated for this.
