ibis budget Chalon Sur Saone Nord 2 gwiazdki

I made this reservation by mistake (convinced to have booked the ibis hotel and not Ibis Budget Hotel). So the hotel, as brand name says, is budget so rooms and services are in line with the mission. Ratio quality/cost not too good because, normally for nearly the same price you could book at the Ibis (almost in front).

Good overnight stop to/from the Alps. Great value for money & plenty of shops & restaurants within a short walk. Easy to book & English speaking staff. Booked online, clean room with shower & toilet in the room.

We couldn’t get a room in the sister hotel opposite so booked this. Check in was swift and we had to pay for our room on arrival and then breakfast as well. The rooms have a code rather than a key which you are given when you have checked in. The hotel is very close to the road and our room faced it so it was a little noisy. The room itself was comfortable with a third “bunk bed” option over the top of the double. It had a solid ladder but is only recommended for children over 6. The bathroom is sort of in the room (the toilet is in a separate bit) which did mean we heard the plumbing when other guests or us used the facilities. so running water and toilet flushing noises. Obviously a plumbing error in the system somewhere. Otherwise the bed was comfortable with a firm mattress. No dinner facilities here but you can head over to the sister hotel opposite. Breakfast is in the lobby area. A good budget option.

We chose this hotel for an overnight stopover on the way through France. Aircon was very welcome during the hot weather and we were pleased that there was an underground car park so that the car was not too hot in the morning. It was a bit tricky to find the hotel entrance despite being able to see it! The bathroom facilities arrangement is a little odd (not all in a separate room) but not a problem. It was too hot to look round the town for a restaurant so we used the one next door which was fine. Breakfast in our hotel was good with regular replacement of bread, croissants etc.

Great hotel, close to motorway, much parking. Clean rooms. Nice size bathroom with a bath. Nice pool with sun loungers. Only problem is breakfast very business when Hotel full. Need a second coffee machine. Otherwise worth a stay.
