ibis Styles Лилль Гран Плас 3 звезды

The location of this hotel is great. You are literally just round the corner from Le Grande Place and only about 9 minutes’ walk from the Euralille station. The place is clean and rather small. Breakfast is included in the price, which is a bonus. Breakfast is a typical continental style with ham, cheeses, pastries, eggs, etc. it was perfectly fine. Six of us stayed here in six rooms over the weekend and found it a great base from which to explore the city. It was also a reasonable price and the staff were friendly and spoke English. There were two downsides (nowhere is perfect). Firstly, the heating in my room was very erratic. When we arrived it was 1C outside and my room was cold. I turned up the electronic control to 24C but it did absolutely nothing at all. Next morning at breakfast I reported this. 10 mins later I was told it had been checked and was working perfectly. I was curious. When I got back to my room I found the heating was still not working. The room was cold and even turning the thermostat to 28C produced no warm air from the grille whatsoever (even after waiting 20 mins). I therefore turned the thermostat down to 19C and went out for the day. When I got back I could see that somebody had turned the thermostat up to 27C and the room was exceptionally warm. I turned it down to 19C. The temperature dropped, and dropped until the room was quite cold again. Nothing I did could turn that heating back on. So I gave up. The second downside? The toilet paper in the bathroom was ridiculously small. Each square being a little over the size of a postage stamp. Come on Ibis. Install some proper toilet paper like people use at home. Apart from these two downsides, I would stay here again. My colleagues, who didn’t have problems with their heating, but who also commented on the toilet paper, would agree.

I decided to go to this hotel since I have been to their sister hotel in Nairobi. It was relatively clean and very quiet. The room was smaller than I thought. It’s a walking distance from the train station so that’s a plus. But my general experience was okay.

I stayed at the Ibis Styles for 2N whilst in Lille. POSITIVES - Room was a decent size. enough space to be comfortable. - The staff were positive and friendly (not always a given in France!). - The breakfast had lots of options - certainly a highlight. NEGATIVES - Mosquitos. My room seemed to have quite a few of them. As I started to head off to sleep I found myself disturbed by buzzing close to me head, and in my frantic effort to swat them before being bitten I probably became much more awake. Over the two days I was staying I got a fair few bites on my head and shoulders. Even with the window firmly closed, this was an issue. Numerous reviewers have pointed this issue out - and I'm sure the hotel could do something about it by means of a window screen or something similar.

This place had the feel of a family run hotel rather than a chain. Staff were so friendly and helpful and although the place is small - breakfast is eaten in the main reception - it all ran really well. The rooms were not large but we had a lovely view over the street and beds were very comfortable. The space for the breakfast buffet was tiny but the quality was excellent and the staff member running it restocked constantly. Although we had to leave the car in a public garage, it was close by and inexpensive for a city centre. The location of the hotel is hard to beat being a couple or minutes at most from the Grand Place, yet quiet at night (we stayed midweek). Definitely recommend this place for a short stay in the city centre, with the friendliest welcome we have had in a French hotel.

Delicious and varied breakfast, with healthy options. Clean and comfortable bedroom. friendly personnel. good location, close to train station and city centre. Very good value for money. Small bedroom but more than enough for business trip.
