“Good basic hotel in an excellent location”

I stayed 2 nights at Le Bristol and found it to be a good basic hotel with recently renovated rooms. It looks a bit naff from the outside as there is an empty shop on the frontage and the entrance is quite small with no ramp for suitcases or wheelchairs. It's an old building so the lift (slow) and the stairs are a bit narrow by current standards, and the rooms a bit small but the renovations give you all you need in a hotel room, and nothing you don't. WiFi is good and reliable. It has air conditioning in the rooms which was wonderful as their was a heatwave occurring when I was there. Modern windows keep the noise from the streets down and the curtains are thick enough to keep the lights out, so I slept well here. The bathroom was nice and had modern Villeroy & Boch fixtures. Breakfast was the typical limited French fare served in a windowless basement for an extra 10 Euros, with only yogurt and fruit as the GF options, but I packed my own GF food so didn't starve. Front desk were staff were friendly with limited English, and if you want bottled water it costs e2.50 extra - normally free in most European hotels. No fridge in the room, which most other hotels at this price have. The location is great - well placed for a short walk into Strasbourg and close to dozens of places to eat and drink, as well as 2 minutes to the main station. It worked fine for what I wanted in a hotel and was ideal for arriving and departing by train.

“Hotel Bristol”

We vistet the Strasburg weihnachtsmarkt and stayed for one nitght. Silent hotel near railway station. Restaurants and Bars nearby. Good breakfast. We slept very good. The room was clean and quiet, but not very big.

“Very disappointing stay”

Positives The hotel is in an excellent situation right opposite the Gare. Strasbourg is a very beautiful city, everything was within easy walking distance, including the Christmas markets. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. Negatives We had paid for a superior room and expected something a bit special. The en-suite had a newly installed shower, toilet and washbasin but the rest of the room had been ignored. Rusty pipes, chipped paint etc. The toilet roll spent more time on the floor than it did on the badly fixed holder. The bedroom carpet was very thin and badly wrinkled - a trip hazard! The glass door of the wardrobe had a long crack covered over with tape. Breakfast not great for gluten free, despite the hotel assuring us twice, before arrival, that they could cater. We asked for boiled egg and was told the boiler was broken!

Good Location and easy for the Gare, Walking distance to the Petite France and Cathedrale Notre-Dame . Shopping located nearby. Hotel clean and Shame no tea and coffee in the room and charged for in reception. The bed we had was two singles mattresses pushed together and although the mattresses looked clean and good the sleep quality was the worst I have had in a hotel recently.
