Citadines City Centre Grenoble

Great apart hotel with free parking! Close to a lot of small restaurants and bars. Great rooms and very quiet. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

This is our second experience at Citadines. (previous was in winter). The room is clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well furnished. The windows provide good noise insulation. Unfortunately, it can be very hot in summer. Considering the average level of the accommodations in Grenoble, it is probably the best choice except during hot days in summer.

Too hot in august. The room is provided with a dishwasher, a hot-air blower for winter, but nothing reasonable to cool down the room in summer. We found an old ventilator, a desk one, in the closet, which is incredibly noisy. This makes it impossible to use it overnight. One can resist few minutes, then it becomes unbearable. Also, since it is very small (see photo), it has to be placed on the bedside table, close to the head and it can’t cover the full bed. Providing tools like that is a lack of respect for the guests. I think that a ventilator is not a proper service in a 3 star hotel for a city which in the last years is constantly reaching 38 °C in summer. For 15 euros one can buy much better ventilators making guests’ life less painful. (this is ¼ of the cost of one single night.. ). The hotel cannot claim to provide ventilators, because they can’t be used. And I am not the first guest complaining about that. Eventually, the only chance overnight is to open the window. And every night we had to wake up because of mosquitos.
