The hotel was in a central location, great for exploring Arras, with a few challenges to find due to the one-way system. The rooms were almost perfect, especially for disabled guests, but a bit small for the price. The service was helpful, especially Justine during breakfasts, but not overly welcoming. The dining experience offered a wide variety of tasty items, though with some strange service quirks. Overall, it was a mixed experience with some positive highlights.

The hotel is a charming place, with traditional and sharp rooms on the second floor accessed by a steep staircase. It offers a very comfortable and luxurious stay, being nicely appointed and evocative of a grand house. The service can be either very helpful or disinterested, and pre-booking car parking is recommended to avoid high meter charges outside. The location is brilliant for exploring Arras, just a short walk from the central Grande Place and close to various historic sites. The dining options may be limited, but the homemade marmalade stands out. Overall, a cozy retreat with some ups and downs.
