Hotel berhampiran Pl. Royale, Nantes

Compact but perfectly formed. Quiet with all amenities (comfy bed, fast wifi, good shower are the essentials for me), helpful staff, excellent breakfast (and guest lounge) - great location. Perfect work hotel - walking distance to station, the conference centre - and to the old town.

Very nice staff, pretty hotel, right across from the gare and tram, around the corner from the castle and old town center. Those are the “goods”. However, we were given family room 111 which faces the street. The air conditioning was not working well, and when we opened the windows, there was the sound of the train, people fighting, or couples. We asked to have the air fixed but were just as uncomfortable the second night. The “rooms” are separated by sliding bamboo curtains, which made it impossible to sleep until the last person went to bed. Breakfast was very sp**** at the €14 per person charge. But reception staff was impeccably nice. I think we would choose a real hotel with real beds and real doors next time.

This apart hotel is in an ideal, quiet location, 10mins walk down into the centre of the city. Three good restaurants and a small supermarket within 200m. Very good value, clean, functional, everything you'd need for a few days stay. Limited, but adequate cooking area with fridge, coffee machine, oven, hob, microwave, but no kettle or toaster. Bathroom good, but no toiletries provided. We got into the private underground car park, at Euro10/day, but perhaps not big enough for all guests?

Habitué d'un hôtel 2* assez proche mais sans ascenseur, j'ai choisi cet hôtel Astoria 3* à l'occasion d'un voyage avec mon épouse et ma fille pour ”leur offrir un peu plus de confort”. Mal m'en a pris. D'une part, les chambres de l'hôtel Astoria sont petites, aménagées sans aucun goût, quelques petites étagères en guise d'ameublement, une salle de bain réduite avec une douche étroite et sans rideau ce qui permet d'inonder la salle de bain à chaque coup. Pour cette venue, l'ascenseur était un point important, eh bien l'ascenseur était en panne ”depuis hier” (une classique dans les réponses de ce type) et n'a pas été remis en marche durant notre séjour, ce qui ne s'est même pas traduit par ”un geste commercial” de la part de l'hôtel. Quant au petit-déjeuner, le choix est maigre pour les 11 euros demandés. En résumé, un séjour beaucoup plus cher que d'habitude pour 1* de plus et du confort en moins.

Awful experience at this hotel. Check in is stated at 2pm so arrived around 3pm with my family (3 year old and a 4 month old.) I was told our room was not ready and we would have to wait. Waited an hour in the lobby (4pm) to be told again our room was not ready and hadn’t been cleaned. Again waited in the lobby and At 5.30pm and close to tears after watching numerous people check in and with a very bored 3 year old and a very tired baby I was again told my room was not ready, bearing in mind this was 3 and a half hours after the 2pm check in time stated online. Also during all of this I was told there were no baby changing facilities available at all in the lobby. No empathy from staff shown for my situation. After stating I would have to cancel and find alternative accommodation a room became available?! We eventually got a room closer to 6pm 4 hours after stated check in time when booking. No travel cot in room as requested bought brought to the room eventually. I am totally in shock with the treatment we have received. Would not recommend if travelling with children or if you want to spend your time sitting in a reception area instead of the room you have paid for!!! Some positives: nice breakfast, room was a good size, snack shop downstairs was handy, bar staff were lovely.

The hotel was a little further out than I expected as it says central, also the room we were given was lovely but a few things need improving, the bathroom stunk of garlic when we arrived, just the bathroom and it went on opening the door and spraying perfume after a while but smelt liked they cleaned it with garlic oil, also there is no fan or air-conditioning and it was very warm, we had the windows open but both my daughter and I got eaten alive by mosquitos so a fan in the room would be helpful! Also was very noisy outside, building works opposite at 7am and uni students opposite the other way laughing and singing till the early hours so not much sleep between the noise, Hest and mosquitos! The actual room is lovely, with a kitchen area but just a few improvements would make it better.

Bien et calme

I absolutely would not recommend this hotel for anyone! We stayed at this hotel recently and were disgusted with the conditions! The rooms were dirty, the bathrooms grout was yellow and dirty with poo on the wall next to toilet. After a long travel and 44 degree heat when we checked in the hotel took 300 euros from our card, in their words to pay for ”damages”. I disputed this as I didn't agree with such a large amount being taken for a security deposit. They told me it would be refunded on check out and the receptionist was rude and did not care. This amount was not for charges to the room as when I checked out I had to pay for a coffee and taxes separate on top of the deposit! When we checked out they would not refund the money and I had to stand and argue with the rude reception staff for 30 minutes before they would refund in front of me. When we went to the room, the air con was broken and the thermostat to change the temperature was damaged with all the buttons broken out. If they are taking £300 for damages this should have been fixed and the room should not have been allowed to have people stay in it. When I complained they took about 3 hours to change our room and then instead of giving me the keys gave the keys to my son who had no idea what was happening so didn't tell me about it! I questioned them as to why they were giving the keys to a child and not an adult and they were rude and did not care. When we moved rooms the room was dirty too and there was an ant infestation. All night and the next morning we were killing ants and found them crawling over our clothes and belongings and then found ant powder all over the floor. clearing the hotel has an ant infestation that they already know about so we shouldn't have been put in that room and also I then had to keep my1 year old baby away from the dangerous chemicals! This is disgusting and the hotel should be removed from sale!!
