Another Mercure hotel that charges a fortune for wi-fi - 10 Euros a pop! Location is a stiff walk from town centre and the Michelin restaurant not as good as when we were here last year. Food is good but with small portions but the Maitre D' places everyone too close to each other despite the restaurant being less than... more

My wife and I stayed at the Mercure Grand Hotel Le Bourbon for two nights in early April in order to deal with jet lag. The hotel itself was ok but the location could have been a lot better. The room was ok but seemed a little small for the money. The main attraction in the area was the Cathedral... more

A cut above the usual Mercure, this elegant hotel has been tastefully converted from an abbey, and the former chapel is now a spectacular gourmet restaurant. Our 'superior' room, 305, was not overlarge but well equipped. The air-conditioning was silent and efficient and the bed was extremely comfortable. The restaurant was expensive and the €49 Menu de l'Abbey represented the... more

This hotel is superbly located near the city centre of Bourges in a very old abbey. It has its own parking facilities and the restaurant is one of the best downtown. Unfortunaley the value for money is not adequate. We booked 2 double rooms and as we arrived the first bad surprise is that we had to take up our... more

This hotel has a series of strong points: a very convenient location, a charming old building, a wonderful restaurant scenery (a medieval chapel)... However, when we compare the service level to the price they charge, some improvement should be implemented. For example, they could help the guests with their luggage instead of letting them struggle with the bags, the doors,... more

Stayed at this hotel for several nights. The hotel services are not at all satisfying , some exceptions. Bar service very unprofessional, at very high prices. Not very welcoming atmosphere overall and not at all service orientated staff in general. Once again some of the reception staff is kind and interested in the clients needs. Rooms very small and can... more

We stayed here for one night on our way back to the UK from Carcassonne and found the hotel to be clean, well organised, and our room very comfortable. It was a little on the small side but that wasn't of major importance for our short stay. Parking isn't a problem as it is off street at the front of... more

The Hotel de Bourbon is a superb hotel, one of the best we have ever stayed in. It is a converted abbey that looks wonderful inside and out. It is five minutes walk to the old town, which is delightful and definitely worth a visit; the cathedral especially is huge for such a relatively small town. The service in the... more
