I was not particularly impressed with the check-in as the receptionist answered the telephone twice while we were checking-in and kept us waiting. I found this quite rude. The hotel itself is in a wonderful location between the cathedral and the river and is ideally placed, within plenty of parking along the riverbank. The hotel accommodation itself is a little dated and in need of some refreshing, though for the price it was reasonable. Breakfast is the standard Ibis fare, perfectly adequate with reasonable choice (the madeleines are particularly good and there are pancakes too), though without the cooked breakfast to be found in a Mercure. Still. for the price, the breakfast is good. The hotel is also a very short walk to our favourite restaurant (Hercule Poirot) which is definitely a bonus.
