Hotel berhampiran Ancien-Eveche, Perpignan

This is a very nice hotel, slightly out of the town centre (which is probably a good thing). We had a Privilege room which was very good, with views across a park and towards the town centre. The staff were all excellent, charming and helpful. They have a restaurant which doubles as a breakfast room in the morning. The menu is small but adequate which starts at 19:30 but you can get the Tapas menu from 18:30 onwards. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel which can take you to the train station and Canet plage. There is also a roof terrace and a 1st floor terrace. Unfortunately wi-fi was not available in the hotel rooms during our stay although you could log into it in the reception area. Apparently there was a breakdown with their normal system which they were trying to fix. If you are going to Perpignan I would definitely recommend this hotel.

The 2 stars given are for the location, however this is about all I can think of positive. No kettle, tea/coffee in the rooms and an awful smell of drains throughout the hotel especially noticeable when you vacate the lifts to enter your floor! Furniture in dining area is very dated , coffee machine at breakfast service was old and gave chocolate instead of cappuccino, informed staff but did nothing.. We stayed with another couple and would have liked to have enjoyed a drink in the lounge together but it was non existent as the furniture was not comfortable and the bar was never opened. Though due to the smell of drains we didn’t wish to spend too much time in there. There was a basket of croissants on the reception desk to help yourself, unwrapped! I suspect the leftovers from breakfast, however the hygiene aspect of this leaves a lot to be desired! To summarise this hotel is not a 4 star, very dated and needs much attention to bring it up to standard. We would not stay here again.

Great value. I think the location is good and the room size is big. Perfect for fuss free travellers.

Speedy and efficient check in, our request for a room located on a high floor was granted. Spacious, bright, large, well-appointed quiet and comfortable. Tea/coffee, sink, microwave, much more than we had expected. Plenty of tastefully designed storage space. Huge shower cubicle with powerful shower with an additional shower over the bath. Super comfy bed and linen, large TV mounted on a unit which could be positioned according to viewing preference. Air con worked well. The whole room was spotless and faultless. Standard buffet breakfast, no thrills although adequate for our needs. No designated bar area as such. All staff encountered were friendly and helpful. The hotel is located close to the city centre, approx. 5-minute easy walk. Lots of restaurants/bars on the doorstep, the area felt safe.

Prima hotel: schoon, goed! bed, airco, ontbijt ruim voldoende, ligging vlakbij parkeergarage waar het voordeliger parkeren is dan bij Ibis zelf! 4 dgn €35,00, bij Ibis @44,00. Medewerksters ontbijt en schoonmaak altijd vriendelijk. Belangrijke min is het compleet ongeïnteresseerde personeel aan de receptie! Geen welkom, geen vriendelijkheid, geen hulpvaardigheid, kijken niet op of wanneer we langs liepen, zitten alleen met elkaar te kletsen of in hun beeldscherm te kijken. Zelfs bij vertrek geen 'bedankt voor uw boeking bij ons en nog een goede reis'... Niks van dat alles. Tis niet het belangrijkste maar wel heel slecht.

Stayed for four nights in early October. Always a pleasant welcome, and stored my bag without drama when I arrived before midday by train (directly opposite). Looking at previous reviews it appeared my room (214) was refurbished more than twelve months ago but was still pristine. Bathroom fittings were stylish, and indeed the whole hotel as many tasteful artworks displayed. I got the feeling someone has chosen everything from room directional signs to light fittings with great care. The room was small but plenty of open storage, and who comes here to stay in the room anyway? Comfortable bed and no traffic noise despite my room overlooking Avenue General de Gaulle used by many buses. Breakfast was similarly laid out in an immaculately clean servery. Fresh pastries, a selection of breads and lots of locally-sourced produce – the jams and juices were particularly good and even the coffee was roasted in Perpignan. There was never a queue for anything, including the water heater to boil eggs to your liking. Yogurt and cheese was always available and a selection of fruit changed daily. Definitely worth taking, and the hotel appreciates advance booking. The corridor carpets and stairs (no elevator) are getting threadbare, but I suspect they will be shortly replaced. The location was great for me. About 10 minutes walk into the central district past snack bars and kebab shops to reach a good selection of restaurants. I used local trains to visit Les Orgues at Ille-sur-Tet and the fortified town of Villefrance-Verdet-Les Bains. The bus (line 3) to Canet Plage and Canet Sud leaves from the other side of the station. Like every hotel, it is the people who make the experience. All the staff were lovely, and I'd certainly stay here again.

Très bel hôtel avec un personnel dont nous nous souviendrons, a notre service, respectueux, irréprochable et irremplaçable. Nous avons séjourner pour la deuxième fois dans cet hôtel et ce n’est pas la dernière vous pouvez me croire. Un grand merci à tous et plus particulièrement à Will de la réception et merci à Trip pour votre sérieux et votre réactivité aux problèmes que nous avons pu rencontrer. Merci 🙏🏼

Disappointed to be charged for early checkin when we arrived as room was clearly already free. Paid fee only to find no towels and no idea how to unfold the sofa bed. Had to go down twice to ask unfriendly Reception staff. The room was a good size, clean and was quiet despite being opposite the station. I didnt like a 50 euro hold going on my card - not sure what that was for as no mono bar! Staff didn’t explain as English not good. Very handy for station and bus terminal and area was safe and nice and had supermarkets if you want to cook basic meal in the room. It was a long walk to the old town which we found a bit under whelming.

I found this hotel to be ok, with some strengths and some weaknesses. I don't believe the hotel has many suites so a suite upgrade as IHG Diamond might be unlikely - for our stay I noticed none were available on the day of arrival online, so I did not expect it. The state of the room was ok with no major complaints; it was clean and functional. Also some parts of the room were probably renovated recently such as the bathroom so it was a plus. Service was quite good and staff very friendly, noticeably more so than in similar hotels elsewhere therefore it was also a strength. What could be improved would be breakfast. The breakfast room was very full when we arrived so we had to take our breakfast in another room nearby which is used more for people with a laptop to do some work. The fruit salad seemed to be from an outside vendor with plastic wrap rather than the hotel cutting some fresh fruits themselves. Almost all hotels normally offer cut fresh fruits. Also the only vegetable available was uncut tomatoes. Thankfully breakfast was free as IHG Diamond otherwise I would not pay for it.

A very nice experience for a stopover on the way north from Spain. The hotel is perfectly located, close to the Autoroute exit, for a stopover on the way north or south. Reception was very friendly indeed, and the room nice and clean, with a good bathroom and a separate WC. There is a nice garden with a small poll, which is close to the restaurant and more like a plunge pool, than a swimming pool for families. The restaurant is very good, run by a friendly team and we had a very nice dinner. It was very hot that night, so open glass panels fronting the pool could have been closed and AirCo switched on, but that is a detail. Breakfast was very o.k. as well. We will visit again when coming along that route again.
