Pension Saint Antoine

Location and price

Could have done with more savoury options for breakfast

The hotel gave me exactly what I needed: a safe place to park my motorcycle overnight, a decent breakfast, and a room where I could take a shower and get some proper rest. What more could you ask for on a motorcycle trip of over 4,000 km?

Great value small Hotel. Everything I expected. Clean sheets, clean towels, comfortable bed. Everything you needed, just all very basic.

Nothing, as it exactly met my expectations.

Strong free wifi Good location (in the city while 15min driving to main ski areas) Good heating and warm water in winter Friendly staff Got one extra bed which was not requsted but was helpful as the single bed was pretty comfy. Did not book breakfast.

The smell: strong sewage smell in the bathroom, and same smell but a bit less strong when entering reception and hallway. Had to open window several times to get some air. One day bathroom was cleaned and the sewage smell was replaced by a strong chlorine one, which was better but lasted only till next morning, when sewage returned. The noise: there was no sound insulation. You could hear people on the hallway as they were in your room. Also you could hear the people in the room above walking, talking, running, using bathroom etc. Around 7am all the noise replaced the wakeup call. The window facing the main street could use some black-out window blinds as there is light from cars driving by and street lights. The double bed was a bit uncomfy and squicky. The room was pretty small but manageable.
