We had a wonderful stay. Room is clean and spacious although no air conditioning room stays semi cool if you sleep with your window open. Location is fantastic and most restaurants stay open until 10 or 11 pm. Hotel has breakfast for about $11 however we did not indulge but it looked good. Host are kind and allowed us to keep our bags there during the day after our check out. Hotel also offers a discounted price for the under ground parking which is convenient if you have a car.

Good basic hotel wirh no frills
Basic hotel very near the centre of the city and close to plenty of places to eat. No frills but the room was fine and the breakfast was good. The only problem was spotting the small hotel sign as it is in a small courtyard just off the street.

Good location in old Rouen
This small hotel is in a good location in the historic part of old Rouen. We had a top floor room with a ton of stairs to access it. It was a very small room. We enjoyed the breakfast each morning and the fee for the breakfast was reasonable. There is an underground parking garage a block or so away which the hotel gives you a discounted rate to use in case you have a car to visit sites out of town such as Giverny or the Jumieges Abbey ruins.

Warm, friendly and cozy. Benoit was a great host. There was some work behind done in the halls and stairs but overall a great location (easy walk from the train station) and reasonably priced in Rouen’s old town.

Comfortable and quaint!
I stayed here for one night and had an excellent reception, stay, and check out. I was very early arriving, but happily was allowed me to enter, leave my bags, and was given a list of touristy things to do until check in. Upon returning, I found that the room was very clean and comfortable. The building has a lot of charm and character, and is well placed in the old town center. I left too early to try the breakfast, but. Checkout was very straightforward.

A terrific place! I stayed here with my two teens. The breakfast was good. It’s quiet. Close to everything. Be sure to let them know when you are arriving so you know someone will be there to check you in. I would definitely stay here again.

Lovely!
Picturesque and charming. It was a treat to stay in a beautiful old exposed-timber building. We were on the 3rd floor and the stairs up were narrow and uneven so it was tricky with luggage but it was worth it. I asked the owner a question about a bottle of wine I had bought and he lit up and was happy to discuss the merits of Bordeaux vs Bourgogne.

O.K. for one night but don't expect Wifi
Right in the heart of pedestrian old town historic area so you can walk to everything. You must park several blocks away in an underground lot. Restaurants close up very early. Wifi was non-existant. Room very small.

Perfect location with lovely view of the hotel courtyard out our bedroom window. The proprietor worked diligently daily to keep the grounds fresh and clean. Very invested in her home. Easy access to all we wanted to see in Rouen plus good locale for markets and shops. Lovely neighborhood.

Room is small, but cozy. Breakfast is basic. WIFI did not work for me, which happened only once in ten years of staying at hostels and hotels. Parking is very hard to find there. Location is convenient.

A unique gem in historic Rouen
As soon as we saw the courtyard view photo we knew this was where we wanted to stay, we were not disappointed; the small, beautiful courtyard in old Rouen led to the entrance of this character full small hotel and Salon du Tee. Hotel guests and local diners were all made welcome by the friendly Patron and all the staff. The French style breakfast and lunch was delicious with high quality ingredients. So many hotels blur into one, but this will be remembered individually with pleasure for years to come.

Charming small hotel
Charming characterful small hotel in great location in old Rouen centre. Inevitably room and bathroom quite small but perfectly comfortable- no air conditioning though, so on hot night open window meant some noise, especially early morning. Good traditional breakfast, lovely courtyard. Staff equally charming!
