Nice hotel right in the Medieval quarter around the corner from the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen.
Located on a one-way street, parking (as in most of Rouen) is a challenge. If are lucky to score a street side spot...no problem. Otherwise, you'll have to utilize a number of Pay parling lots. Closest to the Hotel de la Cathédrale is over by the Hotel de Ville and St. Ouen Church. The rate there is €9.50/day. Keep your parking ticket with you and the hotel will validate it for a slight discount.
The hotel itself is a refurbished series of residences surrounding pleasant courtyard. The weather being what it is frequently in Normandie (rain), I did not get to spend much time there.
The rooms are basic. Traveling with my father, we had a room wit two twin beds.
Clean, neat room and bath.
Breakfast is served (for a charge) in a wonderful room off the courtyard. Huge spread of cheeses, meats, breads and croissants, teas, jellies and of course, some wonderful big cups for their great coffee.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
There are a number of notable properties in Rouen. The best depends on your needs for location, the number in your party. Plenty of sights here in Rouen too, so you'll spend much of your time out and about. Yet, it is always nice after a day out, shrugging the rain, to come home to a pleasant place to warm up and enjoy.
This place does that just fine. read more
