イビス サン テティエンヌ - ラ テラス(Ibis Saint Étienne - la Terrasse)

Booked in for 3 nights during the Rugby World Cup. Wanted somewhere cheap and cheerful and got exactly what we needed and more. Nice rooms, good shower, friendly staff and a nice bar on the hotel. Perfect for a weekend of sports. Right on the tram line into town to

The hotel was adequate and served our purpose. It was very close to tram lines serving all parts of the city. The staff were very friendly and the rooms very clean and functional, if small. The surrounding area had few services. The hotel dining room was not operating much of the time we were there.

Excellent for a short stay. Room was clean and bed comfortable and large.

It was poor, very tiny rooms, not good smell. Breakfast was sad

Having read some less than good previous reviews, and having been unable to find online any precise directions for accessing the hotel’s car park (see below), we were not expecting too much from this stay. However, we were pleasantly surprised. Our room was a reasonable size, clean, and in good condition. The ensuite was an adequate size, and, again, was clean with everything in working order. The air conditioning worked well and was quiet. The wifi was adequate (access code given to us at check-in). We did not have an evening meal at the hotel. Breakfast was standard Ibis fare in a spacious, quiet, and pleasant environment. None of the staff we encountered spoke English. This was not a problem for us, but is unusual for an Ibis, so might catch some people out. Now for the parking: Approach via Place Massenet, which is one-way. Keep in the left hand lane as you pass the tram station. Ignore the next signed turning to a car park. Continue until you are two car lengths from the stop line at the traffic lights and turn left at an unsigned turning, across the tram lines, and into the Ibis car park. You have the choice of above ground free parking, which we opted for, or underground pay parking.

Spent one night at this hotel during a business trip. The hotel is not more then OK. The room had a light cigarette smell, the

Quite good hotel and excellent value for money.

I stayed here for two nights (1 & 2 October 2021) and everything was brilliant. Restaurant, breakfast, helpful staff ….. . I needed to be back one week later, and reserved the same room, adapted for my wheelchair. When I returned on Friday 8th, what a contrast! I was not assigned the room I had booked, but one as far from the lift as was possible, and in which I could not turn my wheelchair, but had to exit in reverse: very difficult when the door opens inward, and the door springs are strong 😥. The bar and restaurant were closed, for which no reason was offered, and I had to go several kilometres into st Etienne centre to dine. Very disappointing especially as my meal had been EXCELLENT the week before. They had shown that they could be excellent, but clearly their standards are not consistent. I do not recommend this hotel.

Chambre bien insonorisées avec le strict minimum (téléphone fixe, télévision, douche, lit 2 places). Personnel sympathique. Prix excessif ( sans petit déjeuner). Je n'y retournerai sûrement pas vu les tarifs pour ce qu'ils proposent.
