Hotel De Paris, Rouen, France

Great location, in walking distance from sites, restaurants, museums etc. Comfortable beds. The breakfast is disappointing for the price you pay though.

the pro's: The hotel staff, both the young man who checked us in and the couple who were there after hours and in the morning were considerate and spoke English well, especially helpful for those of us who don't speak French. The neighborhood was okay, close to the river Seine and within walking distance to the Cathedral, which was why we went to Rouen. The hot water pressure was great as well. the con's: the rooms look nowhere close to the pictures. I know they hardly ever do but, this was night and day. the rooms were unappealing and I would never had stayed there. The internet was spotting , wouldn't work at night but, I did get it to work in the morning. Sites I wanted to research just kept spinning. The worse part was the toilet wouldn't flush because the tank wouldn't fill up. I got the lid off, and saw that it had so much mildew it probably was clogging the filler spray. They need a dash of clorax to kill the mildew. Had to use the garbage pail to fill with water to flush the toilet. Not Good. So Location decent. Staff Great!! Room I would pass on.

The hotel is in a very good position, close to the Rue Jeanne D'Arc, River seine and Vieux marche. We received a very warm welcome on arrival and throughout our stay This was billed as a 'no frills' hotel and I guess that is what it is - a good, basic, clean and friendly place to lay your head and experience Rouen. Our room, and the bath room particularly, was quite small but perfectly good for a short stay.
