Crowne Plaza Lille - Euralille

The hotel was very conveniently situated outside the main railway station and a short walk (10 minutes) from the centre of town. The room we had was spacious clean and had a view over the city (with the station in the foreground of course!) It was difficult on arrival to find out where to stop to check in. We had to drive round a couple of times (a very busy road runs in front of the hotel) before we parked on a taxi rank several hundred yards away and walked to the hotel to ask staff. Reception then directed us to the station car park which was 20euros a day with no discount for guests. There were no other parking options. Felt that 200euros a night was a bit steeep but is was in an ideal situation. Entry to the lifts from reception was by use of your room card. Managed to crack the system on day two but it is a little confusing - until you read the instructions!! Also a waste of time as you could always wait for the next lift coming down and enter without using your card.

The views over Lille from a Privilege room, good location in quietness.

the location of the hotel was very convenient for the Eurostar and only 10 minutes walk into the city centre. We had two evening meals during our stay in the hotel restaurant. The food was very good and excellent value.

The front office, specially Mr. Ghanmi (?) and the other lady, sorry cannot remember, were very friendly and helpful. The bartender Luc was outstanding. In a hotel, from my experience, if the staff are warm and friendly , that takes the edge out of everything. The dining is too limited and constrained, menuwise.

large spacious room, very quiet, very good bed, extra clean bathroom
