As a family with 2 rooms we loved this hotel was worried after reading poor reviews but we were happy with everything. Rooms good and beds were very comfortable, breakfast was plentiful, and staff were pleasant and helpful. Maybe a little faded in the rooms a little chipped paint etc not totally modern but not enough for us to worry about. I guess it depends on your expectations of hotels but we were more than happy with this hotel. Was not too far to town centre and Christmas market a 10 minute walk maybe but nice and quiet surroundings. Had parking for our two cars but may have not had so much room if arriving late as could not reserve spaces. First visit to Lille as usually go to German Christmas market but we really liked the town. All in all a very good trip.
