The Originals City, Hôtel Cathédrale, Lisieux (Inter-Hotel)

Isn't clean

The hotel was very central and essy to find. It is looking very dated and is definitely ready for a re vamp

The hotel is right in the center of the town. The entrance is a little strange and it did not say originals hotel on it. The hotel itself is very basic and it smelt of curry? But bed was comfy and bathroom clean and modern.

Room smallest we’ve ever had. Overall a good place.

I am particularly unhappy with the room I rented. You will find the details of the state of the room as well as photos below: - No hot water in the shower and at the faucet (evening and morning) - Stained sheets and a burned pillow - Stained armchair - Wall light ripped off - Bedside lamp not working - Broken toilet bowls - Dirty toilet brush - Dirty shower with mold - Stained and/or damaged walls - Damaged furniture The quality of service is abysmal for a "3-star" hotel located on the central place of Lisieux.

Not the easiest place to find as its above shops and the entrance is via a corridor. The doors were locked when I arrived at 8.30pm and I managed to gain entry only because another resident assisted me. I then had to wait for someone to come to reception and initially she did not appear to know it I had a booking or not. A male then appeared and he seemed to know what he was doing and was quite helpful. The room was on the 3rd floor (room 36) and the lift was helpful. The room itself wasn't welcoming, plastic wooden floors, uncomfortable chair, stark lighting though it did had a fan which was a welcome addition. A bedside light switch was hanging off the wall, the bed was uncomfortable and the tea/coffee making facilities did not include milk and the cups were plastic tumblers. The machine could have done with some instructions too. On the plus side the shower was fine and it is in the middle of a very nice looking town very close to the rail station (but not too close) and the location is very quiet. 73 euros for a nights stay.
