Hôtel Azur

Good location, but terrible service. No lifts, reception (for check-in) not 24h and closes around 7pm - which was not mad eknown until booking was paid. Some rust and not design friendly showers and sink. They communicate through messages constantly and its quite bothersome - and only notified last minute to pay city tax and were not flexible with timing or online payment. Breakfast value was also bad - no hot food available.

the bedroom was exceedingly small, no tea/coffee making facilities & apparently I didn't reserve a parking space, not very clear on the booking reservation form, but the receptionist on duty had a smug look on his face when he told me I hadn't reserved a place. Ended up paying £15.00 in a municiple carpark 5 mins from hotel.

The hotel is very well located near the city centre, down a quiet side road. The rooms are very small even though we had an upgrade. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom is tiny and was lacking in useful towel rails and had no toilet roll holder so toilet rolls had to be balanced on the side of the wash basin. The sound proofing was poor and we were woken up early both mornings by possibly cleaners in nearby rooms. We used the secure parking which we discovered is not on site but around a corner. The parking used individual garages that are not very high, our Discovery 4 just made it so would not be suitasble for anyone with a roof rack etc. The breakfast, however, was amazing value. We had fruit juice, fresh fruit, yogurt, croissants, rolls and mini pancakes with as much tea or coffee as wanted.

If you are looking for a boring chain hotel then you are in the wrong place. Charming, great location close to a lot of wine bars but still not noisy. Helpful staff and a great bed.
