Hôtel de qualité

Hôtel avec un emplacement idéal dans la Cité. Le personnel du parking, du service petit déjeuner et celui de la réception sont tous irréprochables. La suite mériterait un petit rafraichissement. Excellent petit déjeuner.

We had booked a junior suite that appears from the photos to be a 2 bedrooms suite. However, once we arrived at the hotel and saw the room, the manager informed us that there are there two junior suites at the hotel, and they only provided photos of the larger suite. They acknowledged that the room we were given did not look like the photos advertising the junior suite, but the larger junior suite was already booked so they told us they had no other options for us other than to give us an even smaller room. In addition, the parking location for the hotel uses an automated door which closed on our car as we were entering the parking spot. The hotel again acknowledged that this is an issue with their automated door, but even though they promised to email us with their insurance information to cover the damage to our car, we still have not received an email from them. The management and service from this hotel is very poor, and I would not recommend this hotel.

Comodissimo per visitare la città medievale

Hotel situato in un palazzo splendido, nel cuore della città medievale. La stanza era carina anche se un po’ piccola Il problema erano il materasso e i cuscini, veramente scomodi, non ho quasi dormito per due giorni Personale gentile e ambienti abbastanza puliti

Wonderful location

Always love staying at the Donjon. The location is perfect, staff are friendly, great breakfast. The only negative is the bathroom. We had 3 rooms and all 3 the shower water leaked all over the floor despite numerous attempts to stop this. Also a couple of our travellers nearly slipped in the shower. The surface is very slippery.
