College des Doctrinaires

What a super hotel. Comfortable room looking out onto a pretty courtyard. Air con and a small area to make snacks / coffee. We had drinks outside on the terrace. Only downside was that the bar shut at 10 and the lights in reception were turned out so felt a bit hurried. Super nice hotel and would recommend

Very special Absolutely top notch accommodation. The highlight of our trip so far. Beautiful renovation with every need for the travelling guest considered….right down to the guest washing machine & dryer. The staff were very attentive and thoughtful. We would love to go back. Very special.

Enjoying an optimal location in the town, with ample public parking across the street and an attractive physical plant, with a few more tweaks this really could be a four star experience. The staff are kind and attentive. While our room had four star ambiance, there were several frustrating demerits. A large armoire sits against a wall where the doors can be barely opened. A standup fan advertises AC problems, but there is no practical place to plug it in. Power plugs are located in the oddest places, two next to the floor at the door, and two practically under the bed. A minimal desk, under the flat screen television, has no light and no power plug. The biggest disappointment was breakfast. While linen napkins and quiet jazz music contributed to the ambiance, their buffet looks more like a 2-3 star hotel than a 4 star. Pastries, juice, jams and yoghurt are of mid range supermarket quality. The flow, such that it is. puts the guests in a very tight conga line to obtain their breakfast. We didn't try the eggs, but they appear to be cooked to order and served by a gracious employee. After several experiences of carrying heavy luggage up a number of stairs elsewhere, we were happy to have a ground floor room. But we could certainly hear someone tramping around the room above us. It is a reasonable conversion of an old school building, and there are charming courtyards front and back. Ir is a peaceful and dignified venue. But they need to fine tune some of their offerings.
