Comfortable bed, cool air-conditioning, good wifi, simple but good breakfasts, helpful staff. The one problem was the automatic late check-in. I found the instructions difficult to follow, but a manager answered the phone quickly and let me in. However, that didn't detract from an excellent stay. The hotel was everything I wanted it to be, and more.

Service with Customer Intimacy
It was a very good experience for us. Though we only stayed there for one night, the two girls at the reception were very helpful and friendly. We arrived earlier than the official check-in time. Instead of asking us to pay for early check-in, they asked us to wait a bit while they clean up a better room for us. They also help checking the train service for us and were helpful on other things.

There was too many bad points about this hotel! There was no air conditioning in my room in 39 degree temperature. This information was not available when we booked the hotel. I got locked out of hotel one time at 12:30 AM and my card weirdly did not have access to unlock the room and there was no staff to let me in!!!! I was lucky at the end that one of the hotel guests arrived by chance and let me in! I explained this to the staff in the next morning and they were too rude to even apologize!!! I asked for more tea bags once and the hotel staffs refused to provide. They told me it get charged every day but they did not charge next day neither!!! I have never been in a hotel with this poor service! It was very disappointing! Another point was that I was not careful when I booked the hotel and I did not notice that the room I booked did not have dedicated bathroom and I had to use the shared bathroom. It was kind of annoying but not the hotel problem! At first I thought that would the most annoying part of my stay but yeah the rest happened and I was amazed by my choice of hotel!!!!

Perfect hotel
I stayed at Hotel du Commerce for five nights while attending a conference. The location is perfect for the conference centre, the river, and the trams. My room was spacious and spotless, and had a mini fridge which was useful for this long stay. The beds were extremely comfortable and the air con was appreciated due to the extremely hot weather. Breakfast was fresh and varied (especially the fruit!) I emailed at around 6am requesting an early check in that morning, and the staff managed it, even though they were very busy. My last night’s stay was a separate booking and the hotel arranged for me to stay in the same room without me even asking. I was really grateful for this great service. Thank you for a lovely stay!
