Hôtel Castellane

We stayed for 3 nights and wanted 2 single rooms with a manned 24 hours desk as we arrived around midnight. This hotel was one of the few that met our criteria and I was hesitant after reading some of the reviews. We found the hotel staff very friendly, helpful and welcoming. All spoke English and nothing was a problem. The rooms were basic, its a 2 star probably should be a 3 star. It was very clean, fresh crisp bed linen and white towels with lots of hot running water at any time. There was a showerloop added to the bath taps, so not a proper shower but it had a good flow of water through it. The bathroom also had a hairdryer attached to the wall plus razor sockets. The TV was french only but it had a film and music channel. The air conditioing controls looked old but it was 29 degrees outside and it worked well :-) The hotel is well placed for sightseeing being a very short walk to Place Wilson and then onto the Victor Hugo maret, churches and shopping. It is 2 minutes from the Metro
