Hotel berhampiran Communauté du Carmel, Angers

This hotel has all the usual Ibis features, although it has no parking. Staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are well equipped, and the beds are comfortable. Free wifi throughout the hotel, Good breakfast, with 'doggy bags' to take some fruit for 'vitamins on the go'.. The nearest car parks are five to ten minutes away. Although not quite the nearest Parking Moliere is the most accessible on the flat. As this hotel is in the town centre the car parks can be full, especially on a Saturday. It is possible to park briefly outside the hotel (in the 'livraisons' areas to drop off or pick up luggage. The hotel is superbly located for the centre of Angers, beside the Loirte with the cathedral just around the corner.

Small hotel located across the street from the train station. There is a large parking garage next to the station for your car and you can unload your car directly in front of the hotel before parking it if you pull partially up on the sidewalk. The location is good- only a 10 minute walk to reach the historical areas. The reception area is small as is the breakfast room. The hotel has a lift but only 2 of the seven rooms on the first floor are directly across from it. The other 5 rooms (like ours) were accessible only by the stairs although the reception staff were helpful in carrying luggage. The room was very small but clean. There is only a small rod available to hang clothes. Bedside “stands” were a 4x6 inch shelf. There was a power outlet only under one of them. There was a very small desk with 2 outlets- if you unplug the coffee maker. However the light over the desk was by far the brightest we had on our trip and greatly appreciated. The bathroom was also minuscule but had adequate storage space around the sink and a small shelf for toiletries. The shower was powerful but cruise ship sized. They supplied shower gel from a wall mounted dispenser. Surprisingly they provided a box of facial tissue- none of the 4 star hotels we had stayed in prior to this had tissues. Getting to the toilet took a bit of contortions but it worked well. The breakfast was pretty basic- a choice of breads and pastries, two cheeses and some meats, yogurt, fruit, two cereals. They had a hot water bath if you wanted to boil eggs. Coffee was just a pot of American style coffee - no French coffees were offered. The staff was friendly and helpful. This simply is basic no frills accommodations- good for a one night stopover but too small to tolerate for longer stays.

We stayed in the apartment at Foch 21 to attend a nearby wedding & from first booking to departure it was a perfect experience. Easy to book, easy arrangements with Thomas the hotel owner and a perfectly appointed, stylish appointment to use. Ideally located in the centre of Angers, we walked to and from the station (following an easy TGV ride from Paris). Angers itself is a really super town with history, culture & shopping to suit. Easy transport round town with a tram system but easy walking too. Would highly recommend the apartment for a couple or family - would work for two couples who know each other well, but more a family apartment than a two bed to share. Great value as it also allows you to self cater or eat in the hotel or out in the town.

We had a rental car with us, so having some spaces out front of this hotel to temporarily park our car to unload our luggage to check in was priceless. There is a garage near by just a short walk away. The front desk staff were always friendly. English speaking so that was helpful since our French is very poor. The location is superb. Restaurants, patisserie, small grocery store, café all just steps away. We also walked to visit Chateau Angers and the cathedral from here. No need to drive anywhere. In the early morning, there were street noise noticeable from delivery and road traffic. Some notes for travelers: the hotel did not have AC. Only on the ground level with AC where reception is located. That was tough for the afternoon since it was warm. But once the sun went down, we were able to open the windows to let some cool air in. Also, the hotel does have an elevator, but that is on a floor up. If you are unable to lift luggage or walk stairs, need to keep that in mind. The front desk does assist with luggage if needed.

The hotel seems to have been refurbished recently. The rooms are contemporary and the hotel itself retains old features. The breakfast room and bar area is stunning in what used to be a cinema. The old features, mosaics etc have been well kept. Didn’t use the spa facility so can’t comment on it although I believe there’s a cost. There are loads of stairs and the old lift is tiny so not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. The staff are helpful and friendly (a nice touch that they took our luggage to our room while we parked) but I can’t recommend this hotel to anyone who suffers in heat as the aircon is simply not adequate. Essentially, it’s a fan that blows the hot air around the room. We reported it and the team helpfully offered us another room however, the situation there was the same. Lucky for us the weather cooled down after our first night. The first night I actually had to sleep on the floor as it was so hot. There was no offer of compensation from the hotel. The location is excellent and parking is available at a cost. We were charged a nightly rate for our pet - this was the only hotel during our trip that added this extra cost. Disappointed with that too. The breakfast is decent. Great choice but get down early as items that are popular aren’t always replenished. Could be a great hotel with attention to the air conditioning situation and the hidden extras.

We came to Angers to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary. Upon arrival, Ophelia welcomed us beautifully. We were her priority and she provided every courtesy, recognizing we had been traveling for hours. We stayed in the Executive room on the 10th floor. The room was very clean and well appointed with a desk, armchair and separate WC from the shower. The coffee maker and kettle had everything needed for coffee and tea. The bed was so comfortable and the view is absolutely amazing. We then went downstairs for an aperitif and met Lena. She acknowledged us by name immediately and upon request, suggested brunch locations for the next day. Lena made reservations for us and was very thorough in explaining the location to us. In addition, we detailed their plans to decorate our room for our anniversary when we arrived around 1. When we returned our room had hearts laid in the floor, leading a large heart on the bed and a box of chocolates. Very lovely. We could not have asked for a better hotel with a more complete team. Oh - and they had no problem speaking English and it is a 5 minute walk from the train station.

A lot of positive points. First, the greetings, the kindness, the availability and the advice from my host. The simplicity for the transportation with Jalla ( Again, a big thanks to him for bringing me everywhere! ). Also, the beauty of the spot, really calm, spacious, and a quality bedding. The three-filled garden. The pool is really appreciated. Finally, the greatest quality of the food. Some delicious dishes and really copious. A superb marrocan cook culture with a lot of different dishes cooked with heart, and trust me you can feel it. I really recommend this guest house and I will probably come back again as soon as possible!

Due to our motorhome breaking down, this was the hotel our insurance company put us in. Stayed 3 nights. Room was small but comfortable. Good pillows and bed was comfy. The staff were so lovely, a couple spoken a bit of English. Breakfast was continental and 9€ each. Great coffee and love fresh breads. The orange juice machine great. Weather was lovely so had breakfast on the terrace. This hotel is in a trading estate. We had no transport so we're only able to walk. There is a Decathlon in about half a mile. Also in other direction there is a U-Save store, also about half a mile away. So spent a lot of time in room watching Bastille day celebrations. A nice hotel with great staff, who went over an above to make our enforced stay pleasant.
