For a 4-star hotel, I would say it was very dissatisfactory. The carpets have stains, and the toilet is very old and needs a serious renovation. The shower space was clean but it does not have a shower head (yes I am not joking). There was a broken hand held water spray that leaked water from everywhere. I asked them to fix or replace it and add a showerhead but they told me “it is impossible” (can you believe?). The built in iron was not working properly. However, the breakfast staff are very nice and wonderful. The Comfort Suite room is spacious and the layout is nice.

this 4 stars hotel needs better maintenance. we checked in our room and found out that the refrigerator was not working,the toilet flush was malfunctioning,the carpet in the room was spotted.this was fixed the next day (exept the carpet that need to be changed). The location of the hotel is excellent especially for the Lille brocante. Concerning the service,we forgot somethung in the room and called the hotel to tell them to check the room,they said that they would check,they never got back to us

Kind staff doing the best they could under the circumstances. We came for the Braderie de Lille and had no idea our hotel would be hosting events. There was a loud rock band performing outside the hotel every night. We wish we’d been informed of this when booking. Our room also had a leak from the room next door. We discovered after coming back into the room midday. Some of our belongings were wet. We were switched to the only room they had available which was a downgrade. It was older, had little light, and no air conditioning. It also had sloped ceilings and I banged my head on the edge of one of the corners one night. My 6 foot tall husband couldn’t stand upright in the shower.

No air con even though their website states ALL rooms have it. Airless room with no ventilation. 27° overnight. Asked for refund so we could move to another hotel. Refused. Moved on 2nd night into disabled room. Shower didn't work and on opening the curtains, the curtain rail fell down. Reading reviews generally, the air con is complained about alot but they are doing nothing to rectify this issue. 1st member of staff was useless and kept promising to come back to us with a solution but didn't bother. 2nd member of staff (Samuel) did what he could to help but ultimately there were no solutions in this awful hotel.

Great location, and super friendly staffs. But, i would expect free car park for guests. I also beleive rooms need updating, really dated carpet and furnitures. Attention to details is lacking, ie. Windows paintwork is black and flaking... Las5 comment is monday morning laundry collection starting at 6.30am, for ~30mn: very noisy when your room is at the front of the hotel, is there really no where else for this task to be done?? Continental breakfast buffet is good unless you want scramble eggs, they look and taste disgusting!

Lovely staff and grounds. Shower was the highlight. Came for the air conditioning during the heatwave but the system was not adequate. Fold out couch was incredibly uncomfortable and squeaky, ended up putting the mattress on the floor.

The property was clean and tidy and has a nice bar area with a lovely and helpful bar lady called Aurelian. The rooms were comfy but rather poorly lit - impossible to read a book in bed. On arrival we were given two double rooms but had booked two twins. This took about 50 minutes to resolve and the reception staff did not apologise but seemed to think they had done us a favour! They were generally rather offhand. On our second night one was working in the bar area taking up a table and having a very loud online conversation.

Couvent des Minimes always hits the spot. I never bother to even look at other hotels in Lille. Perfectly located; quiet; charming and helpful staff; beautiful building. Perfect!

Firstly, my room had no air conditioning in August. I asked for a fan and was promised one, but it never arrived. My room was on the ground level facing a parking lot, so I could not leave the window open at night. As a result, my sleep was very limited. Secondly, the desk clerk gave a key to my room to some couple at 11pm one night, so they walked into my room when I wasn't dressed. Finally, the desk clerk promised to compensate me for my terrible experience and I never heard from the hotel.

We booked 3 rooms for two nights, however after checking in, they only gave us one room with air-con, the other two has only a fan in it. It stated the hotel has air-con and we were really disappointed, especially it’s in the hot summer time. When we ask if they could change for us for rooms with air-con, they said they were fully booked and refused to change. We finally decided to stay only one night and check out on the next morning. This is your responsibility to state the real situation of your rooms, don’t just put air-con in hotel details if you are not able to provide it. Generally this is an experience with disappointment.

No wonder Frauline Maria ditched the abbey for the villa! This convent turned hotel has a gorgeous entry way and restaurant/bar area. However, the room is dreary and dated. The area that surrounds the hotel is safe and has lots of brewery/restaurant/shopping options. It is a 15 minute walk to the train station, easy to navigate.
