Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely fantastic! The location was superb, right in the city center with the convenience of Air France in the building, making check-in a breeze. The rooms were cozy and equipped with a good strong shower. The service was top-notch, offering a range of amenities like room service and airport shuttle. The dining experience at the Italian strata restaurant was a delight. However, the price might be a bit on the higher side, and some facilities could use a bit of an upgrade.
The hotel offers a convenient location in the city center, with the added bonus of Air France check-in available in the building. The rooms are equipped with good strong showers, though value for money could be improved. The service is efficient, offering various amenities. The dining experience includes barbecue options but could be more diverse. Overall, a satisfactory stay with some minor drawbacks.
