Lovely, quirky hotel right in the middle of the city so very convenient for everything. The receptionists were excellent, so bright and helpful. Particularly helped with the parking as it’s quite tricky when the small car park is busy. The rooms were interesting - each seems to have an individual theme with different colours and attractive vintage furniture. Very comfortable with lovely linen bedding. One small thing is that whilst they have tea and coffee in the room you have to get milk from reception which is a minor but unnecessary inconvenience. The rooms were spotless, as were the interestingly decorated communal areas. The only disappointment was the breakfast which was very standard and not so well maintained if you don’t get there first thing. Oddly, they serve your coffee in a jug with no top which means it goes cold very quickly which is very frustrating.

Okay but better places
Good central location, and pleasant reception staff. A bit dated and disorganised with stuff lying around on the third floor. Rooms quite small. Noisy cleaners talking loudly (shouting) in the morning. I’m sure there are better places to stay in Angouleme.

LIKED
Friendly, helpful staff. Quirkiness of the decor and furniture that you only find in French hotels. Overall cleanliness. Very comfortable bed and room. Ample breakfast. Availability of tea and coffee.
DIDN’T LIKE (just minor things)
Parking very tight and therefore tricky, no milk with the tea and coffee (though got a jug on request). No slip mat in bath when using overhead shower, nor any handles. Coffee at breakfast served in an open jug so went cold by the second cup.

Hot night in Angoulême!
An overnight stop on way north. Hotel very well placed for centre of town. Good parking arrangements but limited numbers so worth booking in advance. Excellent service at front desk and for breakfast. Dog friendly and those important "green" areas close by for dogs to use. With daytime temperature reaching 32 degrees the room was too hot for a comfortable night's sleep. Would only recommend for cooler months.

A Great time!
We loved the original decor and artworks around the hotel. Reception was excellent and the breakfast was generous and delicious. Just make sure the pain au raisin don’t run out so quickly please.
The room was small but clean and tidied every day. Loved the orange but some of the artwork would have made it even more special.
All the staff were helpful and went the extra km. whenever we asked about something.
The location is wonderful.
We had a lovely time. And it was inexpensive!

Valentines stay
This hotel is very convenient for shopping, sight seeing, all the restaurants and bars. I loved the interior with its paintings and furniture pieces. We had the continental breakfast which we enjoyed and there was a good variation. The only thing is that not sure if we would stay in our particular room in the height of summer as there is no air coditionning

Old building, needs a lot of repair, but still has flair.
Prime location to walk the upper city. Lots of cafes and restaurants around.
Breakfast was exceptional, fresh and home made crepes and cake.

Mixed feelings
The hotel is very eclectic. I nice change from other hotels. Our room was very small and the bathroom only fit one person at a time it was so small. The room was extremely hot even with a fan and the window open. NO Airconditioning. Hard to find parking. Great location. They have other rooms that are nicer I have no idea why we were put in such a small room since we were two people not one.
