Guest reviews
Recent reviews shared by hotel guests
The reception staff were polite, helpful, and made us feel welcome. Breakfast was okay, though not especially good. There’s no restaurant, so dinner means heading out. A few places are about a 10-minute walk away, but for a wider choice you need to go into the town center, roughly 25-30 minutes on foot. The hotel does have a bar, handy for a nightcap when you get back. We stayed three nights from Sun 7/9/25, booking ahead just as peak season was ending. For two people, it came to about 125 Euros a night with breakfast. This is an expensive part of France, and at that rate I’d have been fine if breakfast had been better and the room properly cleaned. For the price, I expected more. It looks like an IBIS Budget that’s been refurbished, with a car park and a secure place for bikes. The rooms follow the usual IBIS Budget setup, small and with limited facilities. Ours wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t thoroughly cleaned either. The decor gives the hotel a distinctive, bohemian feel. The pop-art stickers on the TV board worked well, and a lot of the other touches did too, though the three or four stickers on the lampshades looked tacky. In places, they could have done with less. Still, I appreciate the effort, it made what could have been a dull room and hotel feel more individual.
This place really disappointed me. The rooms were cramped and dirty, with almost no shelves and no cabinets or closets, so there was nowhere to put luggage. The furniture stickers and writing on the fire detectors made the interior feel cheap. Street noise comes through, and the service was poor. One receptionist was especially condescending and disrespectful. The rooms were barely attended to during our stay, if they were at all. Not worth the price. Avoid it.
The peaceful, quiet location made our stay really pleasant. Our room was a little cramped and the bed could have been bigger, but we liked the tasteful decor. We felt at home right away after a warm welcome on arrival. The receptionist we met the next morning was friendly and professional too.
We booked through Solikend and want to thank the team for their generosity. The hotel staff were great throughout our couple of nights there, from check-in to check-out. We made a few requests, like coffees and an extra pillow, and they were happy to help.
There was hair in the shower in the first room, which clearly hadn’t been cleaned before we checked in. By then it was too late to find another hotel, even though I wanted to leave. The receptionist offered to move us, but both of the other rooms he showed us also had hair in the shower. It’s hard to believe an Accor group hotel could have such poor hygiene. I won’t willingly stay at Greet or any Accor group hotel again.
