I was travelling down to the south of France with my wife and 3 kids, we booked an overnight stay at this hotel. Because it was a long journey we arrived late, the hotel had decided to give our room away, which meant that we were without a room. It then took us 2 hours to find another room in another hotel, not as easy as it sounds in peak holiday season.
I reserved this hotel months ago and for them to do this is dispecible. I didn't get charged for the room, but they had my credit card number, I hadn't cancelled. Normally policy is to charge the card for a no show, why they didn't do this I don't know.
Never never again will I use this chain or any partner hotels.
