Vous demander une chambre calme sur jardin et on vous donne une chambre sur la rue et le bar musical ai pieds de l hôtel
De surcroît les chambres ne sont pas très bien insonorisés
Dommage car on prend une chambre d hôtel pour dormir….

Our room was clean. The hotel is lovely, good location and a great breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful. It was disappointing that they did not have a restaurant. After a day travelling, it would have been nice not to go out to eat, although there are a good choice of restaurants nearby.

We have stayed at this hotel many times. It has always been a pleasant stopover.
However this time when we accessed our room it was like an oven. The airconditioning had not been turned on and it was found not to be working. We asked at reception for assistance and when inspected we were told that it will be on soon. 2 hours later still not working. Called reception and they saiid someone would attend to it while we were at dinner. Returned at 9.0 pm still not working and room even hotter. We were then moved to another room and i asked if a/c was working. We were told it was. It wasn’t working and we both spent a sleepless night due to the heat. Also the fridges in both rooms were not working, so unable to cool drinks.

Hotel is very pretty. Room large, pretty and comfortable. Well designed, but with some modern annoyances - can't use fake card key. Desk clerk very friendly and helpful (Arthur). Own secure outside parking area with gate that is closed at night. Restaurant good, but may not belong
to hotel. Internet connection blocks ssh. We have junior suite, which is quite large and very nice. Hotel fronts on canal, and view is fantastic. City is very pretty from this viewpoint. Breakfast good. Thermostat appears to be only decorative. I like this place a lot. Definitely better than the usual 4*.

We tailgated into the car park but pressing the buzzer gains the receptionists attention to open the gates - not sure what the parking options are if it’s full as it was fairly quiet when we visited.
Check in was easy & there’s a lift to all floors.
We had a garden facing room with a big bed, lots of storage and a good size but a bit of a curates egg: brown shag-pile carpet, in the 21st century, really? The weirdest thing for me though is that you can’t alter the a/c temperature yourself, you have to ring reception to get them to change it. That’s just plain stupid.
There’s a bar & restaurant, which we used. The fixed price menu is fine apart from the strange whipped cream cheese course which was not pleasant (note to chef - change it!).
Verdun is on your doorstep and easily walkable with bars and restaurants just on the other side of the bridge and the tourist information office just around the corner.
Tried booking the hotel direct and it was extortionate but affordable through Expedia.

I enjoyed my stay here and believe this is probably the best hotel in Verdun. The staff was friendly and excellent, the breakfast was reasonably priced and satisfactory, and everything at the hotel was functional and clean. Location is central and parking is adequate.

If this was a larger city I think they might have a harder time keeping a four-star rating. The brown shag carpet in my room didn’t inspire confidence and should be replaced. The fact that guests can’t control the thermostat in their rooms (permanently fixed at 20c) and need to call the desk for adjustments is a new one for me. And, lastly, the property must have just done some deep cleaning or renovation because there was a strong chemical smell everywhere on my floor, including my room, which was bothersome. Hopefully that isn’t a permanent feature.

There’s room for improvement but if you’re going to Verdun I’d recommend this hotel.

I travel a lot, all around Europe and the world. I rarely write reviews, and never negative. I've decided to write a review on this occasion, as I think it's important to keep my fellow travellers well informed.

All in all, the hotel has a significant potential but perhaps due to limited guest flow it fails to deliver what it possibly can.

Pros:
- Central: The hotel is situated in Verdun city centre, just next to the river.
- Parking: There is a secure and very convenient car park in the property.
- Decoration: The rooms are nice, and seem to have been recently decorated.
- Cleanliness: the hotel is clean and well maintained in general.

Cons:
- Check in: check in time is 4:00pm... I've never seen anything like this. We turned up at 2:00pm, and the hotel was empty - no cars in the car park, and not a single person other than the receptionist to be seen anywhere. Yet we were told that our room was not ready. Do they not clean the rooms after guests leave?
- Rooms: I specifically booked a room with \"a City view\" as I know Verdun was going to be beautiful. The view was to the side wall of a building nearby. If this was the last room in the hotel, I could have possibly accepted that this is s City view. But no, I am pretty sure that we were either the only ones in the hotel, or one of the very few there.
- Amenities: the restaurant was closed. Not a big issues as there are other restaurants in the area.
- Bar: there is a bar indeed but it only works 6:00pm-9:00pm.

The hotel personnel were friendly and very accommodating; our room was bright, large, and gorgeous; the food at breakfast plentiful and delicious. The hotel sits right on the river, and has a fabulous view. Because of its history, I had a bit of trepidation to stay in Verdun, but my worries were unfounded. The city is thriving and cosmopolitan, and very modern. Loved our stay.

My booking was misplaced. So when I arrived there was little left in rooms. They made it sound like they were giving me an upgrade but it seemed more like a room they were avoiding using....as we found out later the internet did not work nor did the mini fridge...two things we wanted....hotels response...\" ah yes others had told us the internet did not work...\". I asked for some sort of compensation re the room price and was flatly refused.
The hotel was nice....in that it had a lovely back yard....a nice little bar area...and we met a number of folks who like us were studying the Battle of Verdun. Both our grandfathers fought in WW1 in France. One died with TB a gift of life in the trenches....he was only 40 when he died....leaving behind 5 children.

The beer was great in the bar...cold.....that was where we used the internet to check in for our next flight.
I think the staff could have been nicer to us...especially knowing they had lost the reservation....fortunately I had all my documentation.
We are both 75 and this was the first time using Expedia....mostly because I always felt you would not be treated as well as when you booked through the hotel itself....this seemed to be a correct assessment.

Beautiful and newly remodeled hotel. Location was great for pedestrian shopping and public transportation. Hotel and staff were very neat and hospitable. Secured overnight parking, although parking was quoted at 10E at check-in but charged 12.5E at checkout. Breakfast buffet was amazing. Sadly, restaurant was closed for lunch & dinner and bar was \"closed\" although front desk offered to grab us something, if needed. No social environment at hotel. There is a beverage barge (cute) just outside hotel on water. Note that spa was also closed. All closures were due to staffing issues. No gym or workout facility. Overall, our opinion was price was high for a place to sleep. Could've grabbed a B&B or smaller hotel along the Meuse for much less in Verdun. Needed more staffing or amenities to validate rate.

Go elsewhere

Who locks guest in and then out after 2100. Give a code to open the gate, not make people call a long distance number because you have no one to be at the front desk. You can’t adjust your own thermostat, you must argue at the front desk to what temperature you are comfortable with. The night manager was rude and condescending because we chose to eat at a different restaurant and not theirs, which had poor ratings. He doesn’t want outside food (our leftovers) brought into his hotel. He was arrogant, rude and not listening as we explained this was not a take away full meal.

Spectacular city view on river

we were able to walk to hotel from the bus/train station. Absolutely spectacular view from city facing rooms. Booked 3 nights separately, so stayed in 3 different rooms. Junior suite had King bed and 2 twin sofas. Large tub, shower with color changing lights, robe and slippers. Classic double had 1 king they made into 2 twins since I was traveling with my son. My only fault was Room 214 had a glass panel in bathroom wall beside the toilet and bed. Pattern on the glass had clear parts. Large bath towels in all rooms. (Out of 7 different hotels in France, none had wash cloths, so bring your own) Coffee and tea in room. Cover for hidden shower drains are warping so water went out of shower till I removed drain cover. Definitely would go again cause I did...... Rented car and drove to WW1 forts and sites about 25 min away.

Highly recommended

The hotel is at a very good location with friendly and helpful staff and own car park. Got a nice room with a balcony and a great view of the river and the city. Was invited by the hotel management to their French national day celebrations, extremely generous! The hotel was also the perfect spot to see the national day fireworks - who were massively impressive. The WW1 battlefields close by are well preserved and can be reached by car in 10 minutes or by bike in 30 and offer a horrific and sobering insight into the lives of the soldiers some 100 years ago. A visit is highly recommended.
