Reviews for Hôtel Le Bristol

Review 1：Pieces of paper indicating room numbers stuck on the door ...cheap & poor on the door but rooms was better than that..Operators are not doing this old property justice as room v ok!

Review 2：Quiet old style room in Centre of town..

Review 3：No air conditioning. No fan. Boiling hot room.

Review 4：Hotel Bristol was cheap and cheerful in central Reims, close to Reims Cathedral. The one way system made it difficult to find with a car.

Review 5：Very noisy in the front rooms with the windows open. Very hot with no air con or fan. Definitely request a room at the back of the hour if you want a good night's sleep.

Review 6：Great location in the centre of Reims

Review 7：We had an attic room number 502 overlooking the main street. It was very hot and without air conditioning. Needed windows open for fresh air but the noise from the Irish pub opposite was incredibly loud until 3.20am, shortly after that the street cleaning started. It was a nightmare!!

Review 8：We had an enjoyable evening meal.

Review 9：room was booked via you @ 78.18 euros. (=£54.40 gbp) i was actually charged 86.00 euro (= 69.73 gbp) a difference of £15.33. A complaint will be made.

Review 10：friendly ..english speaking staff..

Review 11：Décor very bad, bathroom old and toilet damaged, mould everywhere. noise from restaurants and bars stopped me sleeping,only managed 1 hours sleep.When I complained at 3am to reception they told me it would stop soon !. Asked for a refund but nothing forthcoming.

Review 12：Room was hot and the noise of the air conditioner compressor could be heard during the night.

Review 13：Being new to Reims we found the staff most helpful and even assisted with booking a tour of a champagne house. The hotel is just 5 mins walk from the train station and centrally located to a plethora od restaurants, eateries, shops and tourist sites. One of the few hotels with a decent sized elevator!

Review 14：Our room, at the front, of the hotel was a little noisy with the people using the many restaurants in the street outside until quite late.

Review 15：The hotel was a convenient location for seeing Reims and its social life. The room was a good size, clean and fairly well equipped.

Review 16：I am not sure which century the Hotel Bristol's 3 star rating applied to... certainly not to the 21st or the latter half of the 20th. Position is excellent in the centre of Reims but the facilities are crude.Cracked toilet cistern.Warped bathroom shelf, dirty floor,horrid colour,worn out towels. We have stayed there before and only went back because we had an excellent meal in the adjoining brasserie but the quality of that has crashed... lousy sloppy fajitas served by a surly waiter who reaked off BO.Single redeeming feature was a half decent bottle of champagne for €30.

Review 17：Room provided only had shower, this had a shower curtain (hate them...) and a dangerous step down from the shower tray to the floor. If you were elderly or infirm, you almost certainly could not have handled it.

Review 18：Great location for the centre of the city and only a short walk from the Place d'erlon underground car park. Brasserie attached to the hotel appeared to be the most popular eatery in the area for all afternoons and evenings of our long weekend and having sample the food can understand why. Bathroom was quite tired and basic, rooms towards the front of the hotel look to have been recently and nicely renovated.

Review 19：Please can you sort out the egg boiler in the breakfast area. There is never enough water in it and the eggs are not submerged, so take about 15mins to cook!

Review 20：Always a friendly welcome and perfect location.

Review 21：Finding location with car is difficult- no mention that you need to park underground to access hote.

Review 22：The central downtown location offers walking distance to many venues including Cathedral, shops, cafes, and restaurants- accompanying restaurant has excellent food

Review 23：Our room was on the first floor (107), not on the street side but facing a wall and therefore it was too dark, no direct daylight. It was hard to get fresh air into the room. An air conditioner, put outside, very close to the window, was making noise during the night.

Review 24：The location of the hotel is very good - close to the majority of tourist attractions, restaurants and shops. The front desk people and other hotel employees were friendly and helpful. Wifi worked fine. We did not take breakfast at the hotel but in the area there are great cafes where one can have a decent breakfast.

Review 25：Lively and noisy street. Bad internet connection.

Review 26：Perfect location if you want to be on the street with lots of restaurants. Comfortable beds. Helpful staff who helped us make booking for tour of champagne house with a discount.

Review 27：Unfortunately. Our room was on the street-side. We were unable to sleep the entire night, as the noise from the street cafés was ridiculously loud! This continued from sunset to sunrise! It would have been nice to have been offered a choice of a room off the street because of this "noise situation". Also, notification of where to park when we booked the room would have made things easier.

Review 28：We did like the location in terms of its proximity to attractions, restaurants and shops. Front desk person was very courteous and had an enjoyable, fun-loving personality. The restaurant attached to the hotel was fabulous!

Review 29：Rooms are cramped. Very thin walls made it a noisy stay. Took an age to get hot water. The air- con didn't work. If we had stayed more than one night, I think we may have checked out and moved. The on site parking quoted, turned out to be an underground public car park close to the hotel. Not what I expected.

Review 30：The location is very good, no need to use the car. This hotel is only average unfortunately.

Review 31：The hotel is NOT quiet, being located in the middle of the "Open-air" restaurant area of Rhiems -at night loud due to the young people drinking on the street and early in the moming one is wakened at 7.30 by the refrigerated delivery truck bring frozen food to the restaurants -one stayed 2 1/2 hrs in front of our bedroom window. The hotel did however give us a efund on the brekfat price due to the disturbance 1ftw sDie Lage war geei

Review 32：The location is very sutable for visiting the tourist attractions in Rheims by foot. The breakfast buffet is above the usual "French" breakfast and is good value for money - bearing in mind prices in France today!

Review 33：- poor condition of the room and bathroom (toilet flush) - sound isolation window giving to the street side

Review 34：- a very proactive and attentive approach of the hotel staff - excellent work of the housekeeping - good beds

Review 35：Room 201 is a little 'tired'. The hotel is progressively being modernised and the refurbished rooms are very good indeed.

Review 36：Location; comfortable rooms; friendly and courteous staff; excellent buffet breakfast.

Review 37：The air con didn't work and out room balcony opened onto the Main Street making it very loud in the evenings

Review 38：Ideal location for shopping and visiting the champagne houses

Review 39：One warning, the rooms can be warm and the street outside is a hub of activity. So great if you don't mind noise.

Review 40：Lively hotel in a lively city. Rooms were clean, well kept and had loud but functioning air conditioning. Parking a comparative bargain at 8.50. Third time we have stayed now. There is a sound and light show during the Summer evenings at the cathedral and facilities are close to the hotel. The food is good.

Review 41：The heat! It was far too hot, the room could do with a fan.

Review 42：right in the middle of the town, Reims is lovely. We ate at the restaurant in the hotel, it was excellent. Breakfast you did have to pay for but very good.

Review 43：The hotel seemed run-down, shabby and less well cared for than on our previous visit, 3 years ago. The excellent restaurant had been turned into a fast-food bar - burgers and pizzas - not our taste. We ate elsewhere in the town.

Review 44：Situation on the main pedestrian precinct, close to the cathedral and main tourist attractions is exceptionally good. (France winning a match in the world cup and the following celebrations throughout the town - not connected with the hotel!!)

Review 45：Very warm with no air conditioning or fan, and as we overlooked the main street we couldn't keep the windows open as it would have been too noisy. Breakfast seemed overpriced for what was included.

Review 46：Clean, centrally located, spacious enough, convenient parking nearby (at reduced overnight cost).

Review 47：The doors do not have a quiet close so I could hear other people's doors slamming shut upon entry or departure. Staff explained that the contractor said that the type of doors they put in cannot have quiet closes. Unfortunately, despite the quiet from the outside, I was often awaken by the door slams (it is all over the hotel). The bed was a bit too soft for me and a little worn (middle was higher and stiffer than the sides). Comparative to other hotels in France, however, given the price and location, it was a good choice.

Review 48：The staff were very kind and warm. Every morning and evening guests were greeted with smiles and welcomes (with your name). Upon arrival, my room was set aside as I had specifically asked for a quiet room with AC. Although it faced the wall (no view at all), it was indeed quiet and thankfully cool (stayed during a hot week).The extra pillows in the closet were a great asset.

Review 49：city centre ,close to baars and restaurants,a little noisy ,but if you want peace and quiet then don't book a city centre hotel.....nice large walk in shower cubicle

Review 113：stayed there before liked it then and it's even better now.

Review 115：The hotel is sitted in a very good position. You can reach fast to all turistic objectives. The room was clean and big.

Review 116：Our family have been regular visitors to Le Bristol over many years. Very disappointed with the way it has been modernised. The café and restaurant have lost their wonderful 'vieille epoque' style and are just like any other modern hotel/café. Staff polite but not particularly welcoming!

Review 117：location excellent - very near underground car park. Our standard double room was small but adequate and being on 5th floor at the back was very quiet.

Review 118：Hotel rooms are quirky and dated - street facing rooms are noisy until midnight

Review 119：Good basic, clean accommodation in the centre of town. Plenty of bars and restaurants in walking distance. Parking is very easy.

Review 120：Our room faced the street. Very noisy on a Friday and Sat night. They have wooden windows that block the sound quite well, but if the weather is hot, it becomes impossible to keep them shut during the night.

Review 121：Staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is great, especialy if you want to enjoy the night life. Parking garage just opposite to hotel: brilliant! Lifts! Large sized triple bedroom (1doble bed+1single). Very clean. Coffee and tea in the room.

Review 122：Not much. Typical 2-3 star french hotel...if you like those...and we do...you will like the Bristol.

Review 128：Breakfast wasn't included in the rate we paid but there were plenty of patisseries nearby. The price wasn't bad for the location though.

Review 129：The room was very spacious and comfortable. The location was fantastic and right by the Christmas markets. The staff were very helpful and were able to answer any questions and provide us with wifi access via individual 24 hr wifi passwords, which seemed to be the norm in the area. The hotel was quiet and the facilities were adequate for our stay. There was a vast underground car park nearby too.
