Grand Hotel Lille

Bien placée propre abordable

很小的酒店

I used this hotel as we (3 middle aged blokes) traveled to Lille for the Rugby World Cup. I suspect if you travel at any other time you will get it significantly cheaper than we managed to but it was still reasonably priced compared to other hotels. Firstly the location is great, a 5 minute walk from the Eurostar, a 2 minute walk to the train/metro line & 2 minute walk to the city center which is full of bars & cafes. Check in was very smooth the staff were very friendly (as they were throughout the stay) & spoke in good English which was useful as my GCSE French is a long forgotten memory. You get a proper key & this can be left at reception when leaving the hotel to explore. We were on the first floor so used the stairs but there was a lift option if you needed it. The room was plenty big enough, I read other reviews saying they were small ours was fine. A double bed & a single with a small desk, plenty of space to move around. The bathroom too was plenty big enough for a weekend stay. The beds are on the small side & it was cosy sharing the double but it does advertise what size beds they offer so it’s not a complaint. The pillows are thin & even with the extras available in the room are a little uncomfortable. The bathroom is fine, we had a shower in the bath, my only complaint is that there wasn’t anywhere to attach it to the wall so you had to hold it & shower, this meant the water would spray across the whole bathroom is your aim was slightly off, we used a lot of towels just to ensure the floor was flooded. We’re all pretty heavy sleepers so didn’t hear too much noise despite being in the front of the hotel but I think it could be an issue if you’re a lighter sleeper. The plumbing is quite loud & when the room above flushed or used the shower it did sound like it was about to come through the ceiling but we didn’t spend enough time in the room for it to be a concern. Overall I think this is a good friendly hotel for those traveling on a budget in a excellent location for you to go off & explore Lille.

Location. Fantastic just not happy that building work going on and can not sleep very good in morning

Well located friendly staff tiny room Woken every morning to banging as the floor below was being renervated they failed to tell me this so 8.30 was bang bang bang . Should have refunded.

I do not recommend this hotel. paid parking (twenty euros a day). this hotel is not good. the room are small , clogged showers . no fruit for breakfast. no diversity at breakfast. cleaning of the rooms is not done,
