Reviews for Hôtel de France

Review 1:Basic but comfortable room. We had booked specifically as it had a bath, water was nice and hot! Location good for city centre and Futuroscope. Breakfast was super with a surprisingly varied offering.

Review 2:The restaurant and bar were both closed and the internet didnt work on the 2nd floor - wouldn't stay there again

Review 3:Helpful reception staff but she had no power to change anything for us

Review 4:Woefully understaffed at restaurant for evening meal. Long wait for food, drinks order not taken. Resorted to going up to the bar! Drinks expensive.

Review 5:Plenty of choice for breakfast. Worth the price paid. Small pool but clean and ample chairs and sunbeds

Review 6:The length of the bed is short, only about 5 ft 8 in long so husband feet hanging out.

Review 7:Easy to find from motorway. Good clean room and facilities. Overall very good value for money.

Review 8:Small room for 3 people. Old soft dumpy bed. Probably could do with a revamp. Very odd and dirty/mouldy balcony. WiFi hit and miss.

Review 9:Fantastic location for a stop over when driving home to UK through France. We were really looking forward to eating in the restaurant after reading the reviews but they were fully booked. The receptionist (very helpful) got us a taxi into the centre (15mins) and we had a lovely meal there but its a shame we didn't think to book at the hotel. Nice small pool.

Review 10:Hotel generally good, but in need of a bit of TLC, but everything was clean and comfortable. Bar wasn't great, but we managed a beer.

Review 11:Easy to reach location, for a road trip pit stop. Right next to a yummy bakery (perfect for a quick, tasty and cheap breakfast) and Quick restaurant. The hotel was very comfortable.

Review 12:WiFi signal pretty weak.

Review 13:Cheap, clean, good location, helpful staff. Not the Dorchester but what do you expect at this price. Kids loved the pool. Plenty of food options nearby. Good for a stopover when heading south. Would stay again.

Review 14:Great location close to the Futuroscope. Price for the room is fair. The breakfast is very good - although quite expensive : you can get cheaper by crossing the road at the nearby backery

Review 15:Just a short stay but nothing bad to report

Review 16:Ideally placed to break up a long journey between Cherbourg and Toulouse. Great food and a comfortable room, didn't get a chance to use the swimming pool

Review 17:Non openable door to balcony where mould visible. Bad service at breakfast, food not replaced with hot, plates left on tables

Review 18:Helpful English speaking staff, large room, comfy bed, good quality bathroom

Review 19:Staff. Receptionist thought fluttering eyelashes compensates for totally wrong information works...it doesn't. Light bulbs-- need screwing in. Balcony dirty with no furniture. Air con...none, and you need it. Room noisy next to services. No-one on reception after 9p.m. No way to contact reception...phone broken.

Review 20:Location great. A brilliant cake shop next door.

Review 21:The Food in the Restaurant was excellent but the Wine was expensive. Rooms were comfortable but lacked anywhere to put anything, no drawers and shelves.

Review 22:WiFi non-existent n the top floor, had to go to the lobby to get a connection.Paper coffee cups and nasty plastic ones on the bathroom are not what one would expect from a three star hotel in this price range

Review 23:Excellent staff

Review 24:A poor old fashioned room with stained carpet.The wi fi hard to set up and had to be reprogrammed at each switch on. The bar was not available to travellers due to a private function being catered for.

Review 25:The attitude and response of receptionists who sent us miles along a dual carriageway in the wrong direction to get a bus into town.

Review 26:The food and restaurant service was good

Review 27:breakfast not included very tired bedrooms mildrew on bath/shower tiles no air conditioning noisy extractor fan from fast food outlet next door needs good clean and gardening

Review 28:pool pet friendly

Review 29:Time to get rid of the carpet in my room! General updating required to bring room in to the "Good, excellent value for money" How about incorporating the toilet area in to the bathroom - toilet unbelievably small!EUR12 for breakfast seems a lot.

Review 30:Location, parking, bed, bathroom, tv, wifi.

Review 31:The position of the hotel was good for the motorway but they are rebuilding the slip road which made life difficult The noise from the surrounding area is awful, going on all night from lorries to put-put motorbikes to machinery to youths yelling (this was a Tuesday night). The staff are desperate to get byou in bed by 11 pm when everything closes down - bar, restaurant et al and the staff escape at speed (the receptionist was in her car and away by 11.05! The only opens when the restaurant is open 7.30 pm to 11 pm promptly Beer £6 a pint

Review 32:Access to the motorway Steak was well cooked

Review 33:Access and agress was a problem. Room dirty, very dusty and decor was awful. It was something out of the 80's, and had not been cleaned since.

Review 34:Nothing!!

Review 35:The Hotel would struggle to get 1 star in UK, it appears 1990 was the last refit, its very dated, and the cleanliness is poor, whoever cleans does a quick flit, dirt can be seen in many places.This put me off the restaurant, it wasnt anywhere near full which says it all.

Review 36:car park, grass area for dog, food outlets next door.

Review 37:The hotel is outdated and the beds were uncomfortable. The hotel looks shabby and worn out. Needs a good clean. The state of the room put me off eating at the hotel.

Review 38:Staff were very welcoming

Review 39:Décor rather dated - this property is a cross between the hotel from The Shining and Fawlty Towers! The bathroom on our second visit could have been cleaner. Rooms aren't soundproof. A very happy lady next door woke us up at 1.30am AND 3.30am!!! :-)

Review 40:Staff were friendly and spoke basic English so with my basic French we communicated well. Swimming pool was why we booked here however not open on our first visit. Bunk beds in our room made our 2 boys very happy! Places nearby to buy cheap breakfast and dinner if you don't want to pay the hotel prices. Dinner in the restaurant was very nice and catered for children.

Review 87:Restaurant not open. Loo smelly and stained.

Review 88:Not a lot

Review 89:Large room, comfortable beds, very user friendly large bathroom, wished we had another night to spend there. Lovely breakfast, friendly helpful staff

Review 90:Turning on the tv upon arrival was a shock as it is obvious that this hotel does not worry about potential users of the hotel. My recommendation would be that any family staying should be cautious as there are several pornography channels which are not censoring the images.

Review 91:Very close to main motorway but still very quiet. Ample parking.. We had a very long vehicle and found parking easy. Contact hotel if arriving late so they can give you info regarding arrival

Review 92:The shower was unbelievably complicated to use and the door feel off.

Review 93:This was our second visit within a week. The staff were very friendly but I noticed that the bathroom was not as clean as it should have been.

Review 94:Nothing at all

Review 95:The owner went out of his way to accommodate us, as we had arrived one day later than booked. He and his lovely receptionist helped me with my wifi Great meal in the independent restaurant.

Review 96:Restaurant was a bit disappointing this time the food was not as good as on previous visits also an English menu translation would be nice. This was our 3rd visit to this hotel.

Review 97:This is a nice hotel the rooms are a good size clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. This is a good stop over for the motorway down to Spain/

Review 98:The restaurant is reasonably priced but the menu is a little limitedalso an English menu would help.

Review 99:This hotel is ideal for an overnight stay on the way down to Spain Thehotel is clean and comfortable and the staff are friendly and helpfulalso near motorway .

Review 100:Nothing, just great.

Review 101:This ia a very nice hotel, the staff are very friendly and helpful .The bedrooms are clean and comfortable.The restaurant is good and the food is very reasonablely priced. This hotel is in a good location for the motorway .

Review 102:Breakfast supplies run low towards the end of breakfast time.

Review 103:Good sized clean room, Helpful staff. Good location near motorway although quite a way out of Poitiers. Buffet breakfast is ok but don't leave too late to eat as supplies tend to run low.

Review 104:The room was not very clean, the corridors are smelling like a hospital. Hotelwalls were loaded with dust like cobweb. No airco available and outside temp was 38 degrees, too hot inside. We could not cool down by opening a window as there were too many mosquitoes. Too much money (80 euro without breakfast) for a three star hotel with the appearance of an upgraded hostel.

Review 105:It has a swimming pool. Flatscreen tv with only French channels. :)

Review 106:The breakfast was not great value and I was charged for a child's breakfast which was not taken. This was refunded

Review 107:The staff were very helpful and the location ideal for the family who were driving to Roscoff

Review 108:Breakfast is a little expensive but we ate breakfast at the family-friendly bread and pastry place next door. The room was very hot with no air conditioning.

Review 109:For us, this was an overnight stop on the way back through France. It was very convenient just off the motorway with a lovely swimming pool, and with convenient family eating places just next door.

Review 110:the rooms we're out-dated,the beds we're covered in dog hairs and we're covered in muck! the carpets we're mucky,the room looked like it didn't get a thorough clean! the beds we're uncomfortable,i woulkd never recommend this hotel to anyone if you can find a different one,if it wasn't late we would have walked out in hind-sight i now wished we had! avoid at all costs!

Review 111:I think a few small touches such as tea / coffee making facilities, andslightly more attention to decor would move this hotel up the ranks .Our impression was that it was a little tired and in need of a bit offreshening upbut pleasant and friendly made up for it .

Review 112:When we arrived in the evening and they were closing the pool but uponseeing we had young children they kindly offered to re-open it which wegreatly apprieciated after a long drive from roscoff !

Review 113:The hotel was clean however it is in need of a significant internalupgrade. The rooms are clean and perfectly adequate but not modern.The interior of the rooms felt tired even though the walls and doorshad been recently painted over. This statement applies to the hotelin general.Room doors are opened with a key and need to be locked on the way out rather than operating on the usual card system. If you were to misplace your key the room number on the tag is a giveaway for any opportunistic thief.

Review 114:Well run hotel with very helpful staff at all levels. Good budget hotelwith a well run restaurant and bar. Easily accessible by car butotherwise taxis are essential between the hotel and Poitiers towncentre. Overall the Hotel is Ok and the price per night is competitive.

Review 115:The industrial unit next door started loading vehicles at 4am which disturbed our sleep.

Review 116:Good value with a 50% discount that was offered. Good restaurant.

Review 117:Used to be a smoking hotel (probably like all of them in France) andcorridor carpets have not been replaced so could smell better. Roomcarpets were fine though.
