Hotellerie Saint Yves

The hotel is a beautiful building and in a most attractive and convenient location at the heart of the town. Cathedral is a stone's throw away. Rooms are basic but light and comfortable and everything seemed to work. Substantial buffet breakfast at 7.50 euros a head was good value although kiwi fruit was hard and inedible and hard boiled eggs felt as though they had been boiled overnight!

Difficult vehicular access through narrow steep streets and restricted by security bollards which descend only when intercom contact is made with operator. Reception at the hotel was not good and we were kept waiting for 20 minutes as the sole receptionist had a long gossip with some young people. Finally relief arrived although unable to operate the computerised check-in system without assistance. In other words, not very professional reception at alland whole process took at least 30 minutes from arrival at reception until installation in room!

Excellent position close to cathedral with good parkinbg within what also seemed to be a seminary. Good typical continental breakfast not quite as expensive as most other hotels.

The entrance is in Rue Des Acacias, which is one way, and you may need to reverse into the entrance as its awarkdly behind you on the left. Take careful notice of the method of getting into the inner zone via the bollards.
