- Location and character.
- It was very charming. The location was incredible
Cons -
- Sorry about this - after all the liked about this hotel - the room and bathroom were heated by hot water heated radiators, but were not turned on until dinner time, and turned off by breakfast time. I understand the need to conserve electricity, etc. But, it was really cold outside (around 0 degree C.) and raining. We arrived totally frozen from having visited the cathedral (of course was not heated!) - but we arrived at the room and had nothing to get warm with !
- Small room, poor lighting,only one pillow. Bathroom facilities tight and narrow. Scarcely any staff...one person see briefly on arrival and another on departure.
- Room did not live up to the images shown on the site. Simple things were missing, like a chest of drawers and no milk for the coffee.The breakfast was below par. Fruit had seen better days and the water in the urn was lukewarm.

It was very charming. The location was incredible
The location - which was within direct sight of the cathedral - was most amazing. the breakfast (it did cost 12 euros a piect) was out of this world. It was so over-the-top of any breakfast we've ever had!!

In the heart of Rouen with olde world charm. Cute courtyard. Everything was easy and relaxing.
The location is incredible and the bed was really comfortable.
The hot water didn’t work when we arrived.
Very central hotel, very clean room with friendly personnel and excellent service. I recommend it.
Everything was perfect
Central location though hellish noisy on street side where we were. Nice building from outside. Comfortable bed and good water pressure although slightly bizarre, old, cracked shower. TV worked. Kettle and tea bags good.
Our room bore no relation to any of those photographed. Ancient carpet and basic decor. Altogether charmless. Clean but felt grotty. Certainly no beams or wood flooring in sight. Carpet felt unpleasant and whole place in desperate need of an upgrade. Bad lighting and had to pull out bed to get to plugs. Noisy on street side with many loud groups of partygoers. 90 Euros without breakfast didn’t feel like a bargain particularly although not expensive. I think they should show more honest room pics. Sorry we didn’t take any except one if the tv! If you book this hotel take care to ask for a picture of the actual room and for information on where it is located as clearly they have much better rooms available than the one we were in.
The location was wonderful. We could walk to everything we wanted to see and great restaurants. We truly felt in the middle of history.
Fabulous medieval hotel with lovely courtyard and breakfast right next to the Cathedral in Rouen. the rooms and baths have been modernized but the orignial building is well kept and so lovely.
Spacious bedroom with large bed. Room was quiet and warm. Large shower room.
Separate toilet on a different level, but as it was a very old building it is to be expected.
The hotel is situated in an excellent location. We could walk easily to everything. The breakfast was very good and worth the price.
Nothing the hotel was great.
Great staff, very helpful. Lovely room. Pleasant breakfast.
The location was very good and central.
There was seldom any staff at the desk. If they were there, that person may have their back to you. They do not greet you. When you arrive, a person comes out from behind a curtain as though surprised to see you. There is a big bell on the desk to get their attention. They should have self check in.
Room was awful, staff not polite, there was a smell in the room

Great location, quaint hotel that could be wonderful with some upgrades Manon was super helpful and delightful
It’s very tired, not super clean, the decoration is shocking. The bed in my minute room (no 6) jammed up against a wall on one side (I did notice that room 5 is significantly better when the door was open today) pillows need replacing. Breakfast was cold and just ordinary with old wrinkled & tasteless stone fruit, weird cereals (kids style) and when the water for tea was luke warm this morning (9/30) when I asked for hot water I was told to microwave my tea! A bit Fawlty Towers . I wouldn’t recommend it
Full of character, very central, very helpful staff, great breakfast
