Hôtel Paulette Rouen Centre Cathédrale

This is the kind of hotel that I think is perfect. Really clean, well organized, and elegantly furnished. Absolutely fabulous staff and spotlessly clean hotel throughout. Very quiet and comfortable. Perfect for me… would have liked to have been able to stay longer. Stay here!

Beautifully decorated hotel. The rooms were very nice and very clean. The buffet breakfast was plentiful and very tasty. The staff were very nice and very helpful. Hotel is in central Rouen, quite close to the river. We parked in the cathedral car park.

I booked a single room last minute when my airBnB didn’t have a/c as promised on the listing. It was a heatwave and I just couldn’t do it. Hotel Paulette came through for me with a clean room and freezing cold air conditioning. It was absolute bliss after 3 days in Paris with a barely functioning a/c. The room is small and the bathroom is teeny tiny, but it’s well designed and everything is clean. It’s all you need when traveling solo. All of the common areas are also lovely. I didn’t get the breakfast, but do yourself a favor and get it. It’s open earlier than most of the cafes so you might as well start your day here. There is an espresso/cappuccino machine too! Rouen is small and very walkable, so even though this is close to the river, you can walk all the way to the train station, no problem. If you need to do laundry, there is a laundromat close by or the hotel will also do a load for you. The laundromat is far less expensive though. The staff was delightful and so patiently allowed me to practice my French without just switching to English when I faltered. I always really appreciate that. I felt very safe here as a solo traveler. The hotel main entrance needs your room key swiped to enter, as does the hallway in the stairwell. It’s 3 key swipes to get into your room.

The hotel was renovated recently. Kind and friendly staff, super cute decor, small and cosy room but with enough space for a couple. The bathroom was very modern as well. Soap smells great! Awesome A/C!!!! Located near underground parking and between the main road and old city sites. Ideal.

The hotel is very central with a garage close by. The rooms are neat and cozy but very tiny, especially the bathrooms. But if you don’t mind living compactly, it's a nice enough place to stay. The breakfast was good, but a bit on the slim side if you are allergic to gluten.

This property was not as described. We booked a "Superior Room," rated at 161 square feet on a high floor. We were given a room of 145 square feet on the 1st floor. The room was so small there was no where to put our luggage. We were told parking would be available, but when we got there, we were pointed to some illegal parking. This is a clear breach of contract, but we could not get even a partial refund.
