Le chauffage fonctionne mal. Froid dans la chambre et dans l'hôtel. L'évacuation de l'évier n'était pas possible dans ma chambre. Je n'ai pas signalé. Il y a un bar et une salle de petit-déjeuner. Le restaurant ne proposait pas de dinner lors de mon passage (hiver). Parking facile, extérieur ou intérieur. Le personnel fait ce qu'il peut. Je passerai mon tour la prochaine fois
Booked the property because ibis Styles Centre was costlier for the days. Well it was worth it, cheaper and probably more to my liking. Nice comfortable bed and a kitchen with utensils if you want to cook yourself. Only complaint was the toilets are a bit taller, supposedly made for people over 7 feet tall. Next time I am in Poitiers, I am booking them again.
The hotel is very central in this delightful town. Loading and unloading is easy in the one way street but parking is a short walk away in a public car park, which the hotel will pay for. built inside what was a monastery it has interesting internal architecture and our rooms were two story with the bed up some stairs. This might not suit everyone but otherwise very well equipped and a good breakfast.
My arrival was very late at night and the front door was closed and I could not find a door bell so I had to call to the hotel in order to get in. However, staff was very friendly and spoke good English. My room was very clean and spacious. Extra points for the comfortable bed. I slept like a baby! I had a very quiet room. Breakfast was wonderful and delicious and all Covid-19 restrictions have been taken into account. There was free wi-fi and the location was only two blocks from the City Hall. I found it very easy to walk everywhere. What I especially liked, was the environmentally friendly approach e.g. there was not automatically offered cleaning of the room every day, which is great. I can use the same towels for several days. I had an early train to Paris and the staff reserved me a taxi and I was able to have breakfast even it was not officially open yet. The service was excellent and I would stay there again and recommend this hotel.
Disappointing stay here is putting it mildly - we booked a king suite at a not low rate, and the ”sitting room,” adjacent to the bedroom had an old broken sofa bed that could not be folded closed, thus making it impossible to use as a place to sit - in addition it had a cigarette burn hole on one cushion, and the thin carpeting was stained in a number of spots. The unadorned drab rooms were reminiscent of a prison waiting room with the cheap carpeting and plain beige walls. We had booked this hotel especially to have a/c and the small wall air conditioner for the bedroom was worse than useless. In fact, we turned it on, closed the door, and came back two hours later to find the bedroom warmer than the sitting room, which had no a/c. When I mentioned it to reception, there was little response. But perhaps the crowning insult was the afternoon desk clerk (British accented), who, when we asked for two glasses for a bottle of wine we purchased at the shop next to the hotel, refused our request, saying at first she didn't have any glasses (there is a bar at the reception desk with a shelf of glasses about three feet away in plain view) and then telling us that she couldn't give us glasses because the hotel patrons ”steal them or break them and imbed shards of glass into the carpet and the maids get injured.” When I said I had never heard of such a thing, she said it is ”common in France.” We've traveled many years in France and other European countries and this was a first. To be fair, when one of us went back down to reception to beg for a bit of ice, she relented and gave us two glasses, saying she could get in trouble for doing so. The good - breakfast was a good value for 15euros. The morning reception worker was very cheerful and willing to point us in the direction of the sights in Portiers. Location was great. There are other hotels nearby - I'd check them out before booking this one.
Had very low expectations because of all the bad reviews. However it's not that bad or I was lucky. The room was small (but it's normal for an Ibis) but fortunately there was no street noise or serious malfunctions. The room wasn't too hot although it was +30 degrees outside. The bed was comfortable. Can't comment on breakfast. It was a bit odd but nobody on the front desk spoke any English. I know I'm in France but this is an international chain hotel in a touristic city (Poitiers is very nice and underrated, by the way). One more thing - my stay cost me 25 EUR. If the price was 2-3 times higher, perhaps I would be more picky.
Excellent hotel service fantastic and value for money, Will use this hotel in the future, it’s very very clean and they look after a little white cat who is a stray every time we stay it’s outside waiting for food, they are very kind to look after it.
Réservation perso de 2 séjours d'1 semaine chacun liés à une formation située à proximité (5min à pied du CNFPT), j'ai apprécié l'accueil et le séjour dans cet hôtel, placé à côté de la gare. L'hôtel est relativement bien isolé, bien qu'il soit juste à côté des rails, vous dormiez tranquillement. J'ai trouvé également les personnes le fréquentant respectueuses (pas de portes qui claquent sans cesse comme svt dans les Ibis Budgets qui n'ont pas de système ”retardant/étouffant” le claquement de la porte coupe feu comme cela existe dans d'autres hôtels Accor) et le personnel très agréable et accueillant. Literie confortable et chambre standard ibis budget. Les - : - le buffet, la plupart du temps vide quand on arrive à 8h (reste littéralement 2 croissants et 2 gaufres sèches), peu de choix et vite épuisé sans être renouvelé, très décevant par rapport au prix (je ne conseille pas de le prendre) - le quartier et la situation de l'hôtel / c'est pratique pour certaines choses, en revanche le quartier est vraiment craignos, 1er jour = baston juste devant l'hôtel de gang de jeunes (des bouteilles éclatées etc le soir, baston à l'arrière de l'hôtel derrière le parking qlqsjours après, un spot à zonard sur la rampe à côté de l'arrêt de bus situé juste devant l'entrée + régulièrement, on est abordé et embêté (femme seule ou non) quelques pas après la sortie. Mal fréquenté et peu rassurant le soir. L'hôtel n'est pas responsable du quartier, mais l'emplacement joue et l'ambiance s'en ressent malheureusement.
JJohn PWe didn't stay here but we got a warm welcome when we broke down nearby and needed to wait 2hrs for the garage to reopen after lunch. They were very happy to serve us coffee and let us wait in the lounge area and on the patio area. If only every establishment were as friendly.
