Exquisite service and really lovely facilities (although a bit difficult to arrive by car given the…read morepedestrian walk location and nearby construction currently.) I personally love how this hotel follows a Gustave Flaubert theme, the author of works like [Madame Bovary] and [Sentimental Education]. Our floor takes names from characters and places within the short story "Le Danse de Salomé," as noted by beautiful placards and artwork throughout the room. The window opens out onto a quaint courtyard, and the sill is just large enough for you to sit and admire the scenery, smelling the fresh ocean air. Totally picturesque.
The front desk is multilingual and incredibly kind, directing people through to the parking garage despite ongoing construction in the neighborhood. They also opened a bottle of wine we brought having forgotten a bottle opener ourselves. Parking is accessible via a car elevator into a private lot. Location is prime, the very centre of Rouen. And yet, the world is quiet beyond the front gate, perfect for those searching for a good night's rest. A bit of paradise. Ah, and they do offer complimentary breakfast, just let them know if you'd like it when checking in.
