Grenoble Homestays

Very good, good quality and cheap, the room is very comfortable, there is even a bathtub, this trip is a hotel with no bathtub, and finally more than 400 have a bathtub.

This hotel is nothing like it’s portrayal or pictures. The rooms are small and cramped with no amenities and no surface to put anything down. I had to continually put my bag on the bed and the cleaning staff took my power cord and electric converter The desk staff was helpful and friendly but there is barely room to change your mind let alone your clothes. The shower shoots across the whole bathroom and the button allowing a less powerful rain bird spray was jammed so the handheld unit which could sand a building was all we could use and the whole room and our stuff took the brunt.

The environment is good. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good. The environment is good. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.

Found the hotel quite easy, but had to park across the road in a tight fitting public car park. Baggage had to be hauled over a busy road to the hotel. 17€ for a 24h car park- one time entry only. Critical points Room was cold as air con failed to work overnight - seems to have a timetable of its own. Regardless how cold it was. Room was also dark and in need of an upkeep. Headboard of the bed was badly wasted away and should be changed by now.. Dinner was cold platter only, and mainly vegetarian. Service a little slow. The advice at concierge was not very helpful in finding a restaurant nearby. Price / quality ratio under par. Having said that the corner room was spacious, although no wardrobe - just a hanger.

I picked the hotel for the secure car parking and nearby tram stop, as I had beeen told Grenoble centre parking was a nightmare. The hotel was a very pleasant suprise, helpful friendly staff, comfortable room, decent breakfast and 10 min tram ride to city centre. Grenoble is a great location for touring the mountains in the area. Very good value, I would happily stay again.

We stayed two nights at this aparthotel, when coming back from Les Deux Alpes, before leaving Grenoble. This aparthotel is located on the western side of the Grenoble train station (but Grenoble is small enough to walk around). The aparthotel was actually quite pleasant. We were in a group of six and were given an apartment with two bedrooms and one sofa bed in the living room. The apartment completes with a small kitchen, toilet and a bathroom. Everything was clean on arrival, but one toilet and bathroom might be too crowded for six people. It has the home-feeling for us and we like the place. The aparthotel also have gym facilities, but we did not use it. There is also a restaurant serving breakfast in the morning, but we did not have it. From the hotel, you can walk (safely) to the town centre (where most shops and restaurants are) located. I found the surrounding area quiet at night, but completely safe to walk around. This aparthotel is very good for those who want to stay close to train/ bus station, but at the same time able to walk to town centre. I booked it through ALL website and it was actually cheaper than Ibis Styles hotel nearby, but with larger space.

Two people at the very available reception (I was lost in the new building and they came to get me despite a flood rain ) and competent. A very clean room, quiet and the hotel ideally placed for training at the Mounier High School.

Very central location, hotel offers a clean room with extra facilities of electric hobs, microwave, coffee machine and kettle. The bath/shower was good and always had hot water. 2 chairs and table with tv. The room is not luxurious but has everything you need. There is a pharmcy across the road from the hotel and a supermarket a short walk away. You are also very close to shops and most tourist locations are a short walk away. You are also near bus and tram stops. It is about a 15/20 minute walk to the train/bus station for your return journey.

The Residhome Appart Hotel at the “Caserne de Bonne” in Grenoble was one of my classics in the pre-COVID era, and I came back to it recently in the context of a business trip to Grenoble. I was very happy to see that the excellent service, rooms and facilities are still in order. Obviously, we should not forget the amazing location of this hotel, right in the centre of Grenoble (with thus a bunch of shops and restaurants around). I therefore recommend it to anyone interested in a short visit to Grenoble. The room was very nice and clean, and large enough so that I could also work from it and prepare some refreshments in the kitchen space. My room only had a ceiling window, but I was not there for the view so that it was totally fine with me (although this may incommode some). Very importantly, the bed was very comfortable and I slept like a baby. In my reservation, breakfast was included, and I must say that it is a bit better when compared with other hotels of the same category in the Rhone-Alpes region (all basics are there, including in particular a great selection of cheese). Finally, the personnel of the hotel are friendly and always helpful.

The hotel is located right beside the Grenoble train station in what could be considered as a business district. Surrounding the hotel are a range of offices such as the World Trade Centre and the School of Management. The main centre or more touristic area is a pleasant 10-15 stroll away or indeed you can take the tram. There are a few restaurants and convenience stores located within 5 minute walk. The entrance to the hotel is a little unassuming However upon entry you are greeted with a modern lobby. There is a nice seating area for meeting or enjoying a drink from the bar. This then expands to a restaurant area which gets good reviews and then further to the breakfast area. The fixtures and fittings are to a high standard and have a semi luxurious feel. The check-in was professional however a wait was needed until the room was ready even though it was already 2pm. The room was quite a contrast to the modern plush interior of the lobby. It felt a little dated and showed the signs of aging. The carpet and sofa stained, the curtains ripped, the table edging peeling. The decor of the room appeared a little drab. The room was a privilege room and was spacious with a large double bed (two singles zipped) sofa, desk, chair and lounge chair. It was equipped with a mini bar with complimentary drinks and a coffee pod machine (limescale in the water tank) and large screen TV. The bathroom was split into a separate shower and WC - handy for families I'm sure but not hygienic to have two doors between the toilet and sink. The worst element of this room was that it was located opposite the lift. The lift chimed not only when it landed on that floor, but also it seemed everytime it was used, that could only account for it chiming at least twice a minute in peak times and was loud enough for me to try and put pillows at the door to soundproof it somewhat. The room also didn't get cleaned in the three day stay when I left it empty each morning. Upon return after lunch I requested from the cleaner to at least replenish the tea/coffee but she never returned. Overall, this is a pleasant hotel and good value for money. However my opinion is that it is not up to the standard of other 4 star Novotels in France.
