Weniger als 5 Gehminuten vom Bahnhof

Die Hoteltür war zu, es hatte nur ein Zettel mit einer Telefonnummer. Das Hotel war bereits voll, und wir wurden dann kurzfristig in ein anderes (nahes) Hotel (QUAI33) umquartiert. Dieses war aber tiptop.

Very close to train station. Good convenience store for food/drink opposite. Quiet (or would be without the blasting of the so-called "air conditioning"). Friendly staff. Clean bathroom (but cobwebs in the bedroom and litter under the bed). Plenty of hot water and water pressure. Very dark room for sleeping (or would be if the cooling/heating unit light did not illuminate the entire room - I had to put a tshirt over it). Nice new linens and bed cover and comfortable pillows. As for the "city", the only thing to note is the bistro inside the Stade Geoffroy Guichard with stunning views of the stadium that is a must reserve if you are going to the stade for a match.

The picture shown on the site is NOT the hotel. On arrival was told the rooms are in another building, which is around the corner a block away which seemed sketchy to me. Entry was difficult to find as door directions were not clear, so walked round with luggage for fifteen minutes searching. Picture of real location of the hotel is posted. Address actually is 33 rue Denfert Rochereau, which seems to be an old hotel from the outdated info inside the room. Room key is in a lock box in the alley of the building; not sure if lockbox codes are changed; it did not feel very secure with people idling about the lockboxes. For Eur200 the room was VERY small; spartan as a religious retreat - note waist size of 42 inches or more will not fit in the shower stall. Shampoo/shower gel was one tablespoon in a bottle. There is no safe to lock up belongings. There is no security chain/lock to prevent staff or others from entering (which someone tried to do in the morning without knocking). The mini fridge was nice but smelled of mildew when opened. The air conditioning did not really cool the room to below 75 degrees. After four hours it was acceptable to sleep, but the sound of the unit is very loud. The mattress is of the thin, springy, no support Ikea kind. Wifi did not work, neither of the two conflicting signs in the room posting the logins were correct. Could not call the front desk as there is no phone in the room. Called via mobile to the hotel number several times and no one answered, left voice mail and no one returned call. After an hour, dressed to go back to the front desk to ask for the info, met someone in the downstairs area and I got the wifi login/password; wifi worked well! As for the city, it is sorry to say bland, down at heel and depressing with little to see outside the stadium; bistros stop serving at 10:30.

Very good location not far from the railway station. Very good staff and comfortable.

Good wifi connection.The appartment is really nice and cozy,comfortable bed,all is well. Close to the city center

All was good.

A very pleasant small hotel a few minutes walk from St Etienne Chateaucreux station. Simple but comfortable rooms. A very warm welcome from the new owner and his wife. The lovely former owner whom I remembered from a previous stay five years ago was still there to greet guests. Wifi and code to enter at night worked perfectly. I would definitely stay there again if I return to St. Etienne.

Nothing negative. The hotel is simple so doesn't have the amenities one would expect in a more expensive establishment e.g. no lift.

Very warm welcome and friendly staff. Breakfast was decent. Lovely room with an excellent shower.

Everything was perfect

Spotlessly clean room and wet room area Very friendly host

it’s plain, not fancy, but very clean and the bathroom seemed brand new. the hostess is lovely and prepares the breakfast of your choice of three.
