This hotel is not really bad it just needs some upgrading. The room we had was very large even by our American standards. The beds were fine and the room was clean, but the chairs were armless and overstuffed. Free Internet in the lobby. more

Yes, the carpet is a bit threadbare and dingy but the room was large and everything was clean. The lobby was wonderful for the tile floor and interesting furniture. The hotel staff was very proficient in English and very kind and helpful. A good value for the price. Unfortunately, no AC here. Had there been AC we would have stayed... more

Staff were very friendly and helpful but the bedroom was disappointing. However for the price paid, I suppose we should not have been surprised. Very central location. more

When we checked in our room was stifling: south-facing, no A/C, no ceiling or any other fans. Had to keep the window wide open all night. There were drunks yelling to each other at 3 a.m., 2-stroke motor scooters reved up to a zillion rpm tearing around in the wee hours, and more common traffic noises at other times. I... more

This has been a grand hotel in its day - however that is the problem, it has had its day! Some of the fitments in our room were shabby to say the least.. We were on the fifth floor and for the first few days of our stay, the only elevator did not work. It was a long walk... Paint... more

We booked it because it was very central (opposite the post office, between Place Clemenceau and Cours Bosquet) and you could cancel the room... more

Great as we were very tired. Room adequatley furnished and clean. Our reasons for visiting Pau, one to set up a bank account - achieved by visit to... more

This hotel is in a very central location. Within walking distance of the Chateau, shopping, and places to eat. The hotel staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The rooms are very dated and in need of a makeover. However, it was built in 1912 and that is part of it's charm. The only elevator is very small so don't bring... more

Despite all the comments and the hotel 'blurb', this is definitely a two star hotel. The rooms are very dated (e.g. worn 'cheap' carpets, old fashioned bathrooms with stained tiles and grouting and no proper shower). In addition, the room in which I stayed was COLD. The windows didn't close properly and the bathroom in particular was so cold that... more
