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

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.

A typical old french hotel
A typical old french small town hotel. Probably more so in this case it is in a tightly confined area inside the old town walls.It has a quaint charm with interesting 'upcycled' furniture in the lobby and llunge areas. Angouleme is well worth a visit - full of character. More a long weekend in itself, but with places to visit round about. The hotel car park needs to be booked (not apparent on the Hotels.com website) and one has to reverse into it as it is so small! Breakfast is fine, a typical continental breakfast, but a little dear at 11.50 euros per person.
