Hotel berhampiran DEVRED 1902, Evreux

I can’t say enough good things about this hotel and their night manager. My wife and I showed up at 1:30 AM after having walked from the local hospital (almost 3 miles away) and being turned away at another hotel because “they didn’t have any rooms available”. We were welcomed like family and given a room and a nice meal (we hadn’t eaten in 12 hours). We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast buffet in the morning as well as the concern and help of the day manager. Would definitely stay here if ever in the area again. I give them my highest recommendation.

Accueil parfait, manque juste une formule petit déjeuner.

La chambre 309 bcp de bruit ascenseur plus extérieur boite de nuit juste en face. Dommage

We needed accommodation for 2 nights at Evreux and chose Premiere Classe as the description made it sound like the UK's Premier Inns or Travelodges AND the price included breakfast. At around 50 euro per night it wasn't cheap but so-so. The room we were given on the first night was just awful. The heater was falling off the wall - as was the paint! The floor lino was grotty and worn. The shower didn't fit (was coming away from the wall) and leaked over the floor. The door lock was damaged and didn't even look secure. The room fittings were damaged and certainly unhygenic. Our first night stay was dreadful. On top of the c**p room, there was a group of other visitors who had no respect for other residents - staying up until nearly 3am making a lot of noise outside - including allowing their sprogs to run around yelling and bawling. There were no hotel staff around to tell them to be quiet. After complaining, staff did move us to another room for the second night. Although the decor etc, was only slighty better, the room was at least quiet so we slept okay. I have complained about this accommodation and have been promised a refund for the first nights stay but TBH, this ”hotel” (really?) should be shut for refurbishment or rebuild (the concrete stairway looks to be suffering from water ingress and rod corrosion). I honestly would not recommend this as a place to stay - and on the basis of this hotel, we will be avoiding ALL Louvre Hotel Group accommodation for the foreseeable future. Just a final point though. The bedding was clean and the breakfast (self-service basic continental-style) was fine. The two staff members we saw (one in the evening and the other mornings) were friendly and helpful.

Nous sommes arrivés tard, vers 22h et ca fait plaisir d'avoir une réceptionniste plutôt qu'un écran. Qui plus est cette jeune femme a été très accueillante et serviable. Les chambres sont propres et plutôt confortable pour un kyriad direct, agréablement surprise. Le petit déjeuner est correct et l'accueil du matin toujours aussi chaleureux. Satisfaite

L'accueil fut correcte, hôtel situé proche d'un carrefour très fréquenté. Niveau calme toit est à revoir, dès que personne passe dans le couloir les vibrations des ses pas résonnent dans la chambre, on a pu de même suivre la conversation d'une des chambre mitoyenne. Le plafond de la salle de bain est moisis et la peinture s'écaille dans la douche ce qui ne donne pas une bonne impression quand à l'hygiène, bon point il y avait 2 trousseaux de serviettes mis a disposition. Le lit est d'un confort relativement bas de gamme qui grince au moindre mouvement. Pour les boissons proposés avec la bouilloire j'ai eu la surprise d'avoir du lait périmé depuis 1 mois!

We made the mistake of arriving on a Sunday, thinking that as it had a bar and restaurant that they would be open. They weren't. I can only think that the three star rating for this place is due to the fact that they have such facilities. Pity they're closed at weekends. We had to drive a few miles to go to dinner on the town. We had to ring a phone number to be let in on arrival, which is not very welcoming. The hotel is in the middle of a tatty industrial park, and we did worry about parking our car there, but it was intact in the morning. We had a kettle in the room, but no cups or tea or coffee. The Receptionist provided cardboard cups etc upon request. The room was OK, basic, but we didn't pay a fortune to stay here. It was clean. Breakfast was a shambles. The Receptionist and a colleague were setting tables, but it turned out that they were setting them for dinner. As we went to sit down, staff removed placemats etc. Simple verbal communication would have been useful, there was no attempt to speak to us in French or English to explain what was happening. We managed to get the last couple of croissants and pieces of bread before they ran out at 8.30. Otherwise we would have had to manage with fruit, yogurts and ham. We did hear some people quite rightly grumbling about it. Upon departure, no-one asked us whether we'd had a pleasant stay, or even wished us ”bon voyage”. A man merely took our key from us with a ”merci”. Bottom line is, that I wouldn't stay here again. There is plenty of choice closer to Evreux.
