ノボテル ル マン(Novotel le Mans)

We stay here on a pretty regular basis travelling to the U.K. from our home in France. Welcoming, clean, convenient, great staff and dogs are welcome

This s place is a dump. Filthy carpets, stained chairs, nicked up walls. The place looks like an 80’s roadside motel from the states that someone bought and attempt a facelift on. The lobby area is nice but the rest is crap. The hotel is located in an industrial area and boast a formidable fence and Elyria gate system to enter their grounds. We were truly taken aback after having spent several days in Villages in Western France. I wouldn’t even recommend this place to my ex wife! (Well, maybe!)

Great staff and wonderful restaurant. Room very comfortable and good shower with separate toilet. Nice pool area.

The staff were excellent the breakfast was exceptionally good

Novotel generally of d high standard with a pool and a good restaurant in a quiet area of south LeMans with private parking . However lift was out of order, stairwell was incredibly smelly and room was quite smelly. Breakfast service was a lower standard than usual with slow table clearing service even at the end of the breakfast period. There is an amazing bakery La Feuilette about half a mile from the hotel providing alternatives to the paid for breakfast. Novotels normally high standards were slipping a bit on this occasion, but on balance still a great stopover midway between southern France and Calais Eurotunnel.

Great facilities and gentleman that checked us in was really nice. The power cut ruined our stay as we were all sat in bed for a family movie and the power was lost on the 3rd floor for just over an hour.

Hotel room contained items from previous guest including shower gels and jewellery (handed to receptionist). Bathroom clean and bed freshly made. No complaints there. Outside play area for children and outdoor pool free to use. Brasserie attached to the hotel very convenient for food and drinks. Play area for children indoors with games and books etc.

Simple, easy check in. Towels for the pool great, quiet room. Fantastic shower and toiletries. Great family stay as a stopover.

So much dust on the kettle and in the room. Really nice toiletries by rituals .
