So'Lodge stay always nice
I had a nice stay at So'lodge Hotel Niort, It's easy to arrive at the hotel, there's free parking outside, there is an automatic kiosk for the check-in and payment of the room. Upon payment, we get the code to the room. All very easy and the rooms are clean, comfortable, and quiet.

Pleasant hotel
Great to see restaurant so busy but meant there were no parking spaces spare on arrival. Thankfully two cars left soon afterwards so we were OK. Best not to arrive at busy times. Otherwise this is an hotel we have used quite often and one of our favourites. Very handy for motorway and refuelling is within a short distance.

Ok. The price is low. The rooms are clean and functional, especially At the price. The greeting and help from the staff is EXCELLENT. The on site restaurant is brilliant. No fuss, just brilliant food. For a stopover on the autoroute or an absi5 bargain stay in the region. Highly recommended. The breakfast was great as well.

It was a perfect stop off, breaking a very long journey. Located close to a péage was well presented and very tasty.e exit, but away from traffic noise, we were delighted to find a very good restaurant on site. The room was well suited for disabled use and had easy access. Breakfast offered a good selection of hot and cold food and a wide selection of hot drinks. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again when we have time to spend enjoying the surrounding countryside.

Pleasant surprise
Stayed by accident, not choice. Pleasantly surpised to find a hotel well kept, clean and friendly. Rooms are small but adaquate, beds good, and generally clean & warm. Breakfast well set-up and pleasantly served. Standards were better than those found in the higher grades of hotels around. Would be pleased to use this hotel again.

Good hotel for a stopover or when staying in the area. Bargain at 35 euros. Room, plain and functional. Very Clean, good shower and big bed. Staff were brilliant. You can get a beer/ wine there if restaurant is closed. Restaurant on site very good, simple French fayre done well. Breakfast was also very tasty.

We have stayed here several times when passing through to get the ferry at Roscoff and always comfortable for one night...the only feedback we would give this time is the shower was not flowing away quickly and we had no electric lights for about half hour early in the morning when trying to leave..other than that it was absolutely fine and we would stay again

Excellent overnight stop.
One night stop-over from Gascony to Le Havre. Very convenient for A10/A83. Hotel is on an industrial park with a number of other budget hotels. The staff made us feel very welcome, accepted our somewhat limited French, then conducted the proceedings in English! Very good price for the room.

Overall the hotel was fine. One fault (not with the hotel) was that when 'directions' was clicked on the Hotels.com app, it couldn't find the hotel. Probably the simple addition of the Street Name in the hotel address would solve it. The free WiFi worked well. Car Parking was good and because of the remote location I felt the car was safe.

Bad Night at the INN
Previously we have stayed in a first floor room which was quiet this time we were in Room 15 on the ground floor and throughout the night aproximately very 50 minutes or so we were awakened by the sound fo rushing water down a pipe or pipes behind the bulkhead of our shower room. IT WAS A BAD NIGHT Ws have two further paid for reservations in the hotel and will require a fiirst floor room. Anthony

Over rated & over priced.
Obviously an overnight stop for travelling sales peoples. Very basic & small accomodation although everything you will need. If you are over 6ft tall you may have trouble using loo with door shut! Winter duvets only on bed when normal temperature in Oct was too warm for these. Restaurant food ok but did nothing for the reputation of "french cuisine." Staff were polite & helpful although it seemed the main objective was to get packed up as quickly as possible. Overall, I would say; over rated & over priced.
