Novotel Poitiers Site du Futuroscope 4 yıldız

The staff are nice but my stay was very disappointing: 1) The lighting was not on properly in the car park, which meant I had to make my way to the hotel from my car in the dark. Half the lamps weren’t working. 2) I was sitting on the toilet in the reception area for a while when the lights went out. This tîme I found myself in total darkness. Fortunately I had the light in my mobile phone as a back up. I complained to reception and they told me that this was to save energy. The movement detector is outside the cubicle, so waving your arms around doesn’t help the situation. 3) There were only 2 staff on duty on the Sunday evening trying to do the check-ins and also man the catering service. This led to irritatingly long waiting times for service. My experiences have put me off this hotel chain completely.

Really nicely refurbished Novotel at Futuroscope. But… the restaurant was closed - we got an email a couple of days before arrival - and the alternatives offered were all about 2km away so not really walking distance. (Fortunately the Ibis opposite had a decent bar menu going.) When we came back from a long day at the Futuroscope park, the manager couldn’t have been more rude when we asked if the bar was still open to buy the kids some drinks (it was 2340). So… lovely hotel, poor service.

The staff were exceptionally good, in particular Celine and Marie-Hélène, nothing was too much trouble for them and they found me a room when I needed one! The breakfast was the freshest I have had in France and the scrambled eggs were the best I have had in a hotel. I am now going to be on the look out for Novotel hotels all around the world!

It os supposed to be a 4 star hotel, but it feels like a 2-3… The breakfast is nothing special, borderline disgusting, in fact it made 3 out of 5 of us vomit. Unrelated to the park because it happened before we went to futuroscope. The room, was super hot, you can not control the Air Conditioner, they do… all you change is the fan speed. The window was so stuck we couldn’t open it the first day, so we slept hot… The second day we were determined to open the window so we finally got it budged open by a bit of force. It says online that pets allowed, yet you pay extra for nothing that includes pets, nothing for the pet itself to me thats pointless and just extra money for nothing. There should be atleast a pet bed or some area to accommodate them or even dog sit them while we were at the park. There is not, or if they have they did not inform. Is it convenient location? Yes, it is pretty close to the park, less than 10 minutes to it and there is a more direct entrance that leads you basically towards the middle of the park. Overall, we were not satisfied with our stay there, definitely not worth the price. And Id label this a 3 star hotel. Beautiful outside on its structure, convenient location, but inside its average, specially the floors/halls have this weird hospital smell.

Lovely hotel, met with polite lovely staff, lots of choice for breakfast in the morning, including machine for making your pancakes, which were delicious . When we stayed , though it was very busy with it being school holidays, it was quiet. Very clean.
