Hôtel de la Citadelle0

Location was amazing. Very easy to come and go through the side door of the hotel. Very much in the heart of the city - close to restaurants and shops.

Very loud. The car tunnel acts like a megaphone so the traffic noise was very loud. Loud party people in the street until 2 am and then 4 am the delivery trucks and rubbish collection trucks keep us awake. Very bright street light outside the hotel room which doesn't turn off until around 1 am. It was an extremely hot weekend - no air-conditioning or fans.

We chose one of the spa rooms to ensure we had a view of the rock, which was spectacular, especially at night. We were in the room furthest from the rock, but that had the bonus of a view of the citadel and the street below, where there was a street festival the night we stayed. The room was comfortable and the facilities generally worked well. The man who greeted us was cheery and had a real twinkle in his eye. He was fine for us to leave our bags at reception while we went to and from our car. We had dinner at the restaurant, which was fine, but best for the view of the rock. It would have been lovely to have eaten outdoors, but it was far too windy the night we stayed.

Parking was a nightmare when we arrived, probably due to the festival. The following morning there were a couple of places available out front, which might be more usual. The jacuzzi was quite annoying as half of it was taken up with a cascade that splashed our faces and couldn't be turned off no matter what we did. The lift is tiny and wasn't available when we left (maintenance, we think).

I booked the hotel for its location then I asked for a room with the balcony the view over the Durance River in Sisteron. I had what I asked for from the beginning. Staff were very professional, courteous, nice and helpful. Breakfast was good and everywhere were nice and clean. My son and I were very happy with our choice.

Toilet was very tiny otherwise everything were good for a 3 star hotel. That hotel could be a 5 star hotel with its unique location !

The location is perfect and the restaurant offers an amazing view of Sisteron. The room was nice as it offered a comfortable space for a short-term stay. The hotel has a perfect view of the mountains and the lake.

All good just that the facilities in general are a bit old and the shower had a particular smell (strong chemical products for cleaning, maybe).

The view waas sensational! Straight out to the Sisteron rock across the river. The room was clean and comfortabl;e. The breakfast was good. The location is excellent for a visit to the town and the region. Public free parking is only a few minute walk from the hotel.

I need to say that I'm surprised how amazing this place is. The location is just perfect, the view is just breathtaking 😍 The building seems to be renovated and was very clean. The staff very nice and made a lot of effort to communicate in English (not always the case in France 😅) I am highly recommending this hotel and Sisteron for a weekend trip!

Nothing specific

The location was great, easy parking, rooms with the beautiful view of the river and rocks, rooms of a good size and they looked well (considering this is only a 2-star- hotel).

The lift was veeery small. I think the wheelchair would not fit in. It’s not a problem if you can walk the stairs. The hotel doesn’t have a good noise isolation. You can hear your neighbors or the water being flushed next doors :-(

Fabulous location! On the cliffs looking down to the river. Charming, efficient staff. Simple but very comfortable room. Had a lovely meal of sisteron lamb, of course, looking down to the river and up to the huge rock on the opposite bank. Sisteron buzzes with atmosphere. .

Nothing.

great location and nice breakfast

the toilet paper holder was on the floor when we arrived- we fixed it. :)

Everything, staff food location

Plates were put away in drawer dirty, not washed, so didn't use, was put off, but that was the only thing
