Hôtel de la Gare — Restaurant in Romorantin-Lanthenay

As we found in the three IBIS hotels we've stayed in so far.... the rooms are small and the layout is difficult for anyone of large stature as the bathroom is very small and access to it impedes the entry way.||Our room had a large dead fly on the desk - Is this important at first? No. But the fly was not taken away on the second day - poor attention to detail!||||What needs attention more though is that the manager of the hotel seems to feel that the comfort of his clients do not matter much. On arrival it was a warm day and we had been on a bus tour for many hours and were looking to 'just relax'. On a bus tour we have to lug our own bags.... there is no elevator in this hotel. In our rooms the airconditioners were there but they were TURNED OFF (not broken). We asked the desk clerk to rectify the issue. They could not. No airconditioning that night and our sleep was poor. This affected all 50 people on our trip which means that about 28 room rentals were affected. The next morning our trip manager (because nothing was done the evening before) made a pointed request directly to the manager asking that the airconditioning be turned on. We returned at the end of the day and it was not on. Another night of less than maximal comfort. In the morning our tour manager again spoke to the manager and was given this statement, " It is not IBIS policy to turn on the air conditioning until June. This is a centrally managed decision." Not a good one! It was obviously still within his pervue to turn it on but he did not wish to comprise himself with his owners. ||The NEXT NIGHT: We moved onward and stayed at another IBIS hotel within 200 miles of this one..... THE AIRCONDITIONING WAS ON! If it was a ||corporate decision - why was this other hotel in flagrant disobedience?||At dinner we ordered and were served a patty of beef. We asked that it be fully cooked. It came medium rare (common in France but that's why we asked for the extra cooking). We sent it back for re-heating and it came back still medium well - not cooked fully yet. Furthermore, the meat had no taste. We brought that complaint to the attention of the waiter as the kitchen should know that sort of thing. On paying the bill I paid the manager directly and I asked if he was aware of the failure in his food quality. He simply said that the waiter had informed him. He made no other comment or gesture about our experience - NOT EVEN a word of sympathy!||NEXT: In his rebuttal to our trip manager, the hotel manager stated that two people in our group had failed to pay for a meal! We all discussed this and that complaint seemed irrational to us all. This manager does not understand that he has responsibilities toward his...

Un accueil très chaleureux, familliale , des personnes compréhensifs à l'écoute et très satisfaisant à la demande des clients. Indienne la petite chienne de l'hôtel super chaleureuse aussi accueillante et câline, j'ai apprécié caliner cette petite boule d'amour pendant mon séjour.

Les chambres confortables et propres. Je conseil vraiment.

Salle à manger refaite à neuve et magnifique. Je le notifie par apport aux photos. Les desserts une tuerie.

Seuls bémoles !!! L'isolation

Le froid à l'étage dans le sas d'entrée entre les chambres où j'ai voulu passer une petite heure car je n'arrivais pas à dormir. Je sentais le vent passer et j'étais glacé. Peut être est ce en cours ? 😊

Le repas moyen !!

L'entrée était déjà très copieuse. Carottes râpées concombre frais auraient suffit. Le taboulé en boite à gaché le frais.

En plat de résistance assiette trop généreuse pour un soir !! Voulu bien faire et c'est adorable. Mais les carottes une seule aurait suffit coupé en rondelle de préfèrence. Les spagueties n'étaient pas nessecaire surtout le soir. Les pommes de terre c'est bouratif 2 petites auraient suffit Coupées pour la présentation en rondelles. 😉 Les haricots verts pas fan. Mais les doses moins copieuses le soir svp. Une petite assiette aurait suffit. 😉

Petits déjeuners rien à redire, y'avait de tout, Minis croissants dommage,ils étaient délicieux 😉

C'était très gentil de votre part de cuisiner à la demande. Vôtre accueil famillial reste un point très positif, j'adore vôtre côté souriant et Simple, comme à l'époque où je partais avec mon père sur les routes, dans les petits hôtel resto de village et ça m'a rappellé de très bon souvenirs.

Je conseil virement les lieues rien que pour l'accueil chaleureux, l'écoute , les sourires, bref un lieu que j'ai adoré pour...
