ibis Budget Arles Palais Des Congres

It was very quiet, though I’m unsure if that’s just because there weren’t many other guests. We definitely clearly heard movement and talking in the hallway when people passed by. The bed was super comfortable, the bedding was great and the room was more spacious then we’d expected. We appreciated having a closet space because not all Ibis have storage. Check-in and -out was very simple. The parking lot was large and seemed very secure. The walk into town was easy and pleasant.

The plug socket in the bathroom wasn’t attached to the wall. When I tried to unplug my blow dryer, the whole unit came out and the wires were exposed. Especially in a wet bathroom, this is an electrical hazard. The shower was also leaking from underneath along the wall beside the sink. I think there may be a plumbing error under the shower cabin or else the sealant has worn out along the wall. The green LEDs in the headboard-mounted light controls must be removed. They’re horrible for sleeping. I could see very clearly because of them even though the room was otherwise fully dark and there’s no way to cover them unless we’d packed tape or something. Please find an alternative to these panels or remove their LEDs.

I always enjoy staying at an Ibis hotel because of its consistency. You know what your room will be like. The receptionist spoke perfect English and was very helpful in showing me the bus routes on the map. Free parking is always a plus in France. The room was very large and although it didn't have all the amenities like shampoo and hand lotion, on the other hand it was very inexpensive and a good place for a quiet overnight stop convenient to public transportation into Arles City center.

I wish the website had mentioned how convenient the bus connections were to the city as I paid for parking in one of the lots on the day I arrived before coming to the hotel. I should have just come to the hotel early, park the car and taken the convenient bus into town.

This hotel is just a little outside the center but it has free parking with plenty of space. It is right off the autoroute and super easy to get to, something to think about if you are getting in late. It is an easy walk to the heart of Arles, maybe a km or so. There are a bunch of wonderful bars and restaurants in the city centre. We also found art galleries open late whilst looking for dinner. The combination of proximity, parking, access and price makes this a great spot to stay for people driving to or through Arles. Well done Ibis!

We only stayed for one night. I'm used to Ibis Budget hotels and this one was better than the average. The staff, all of them, was amazingly accommodating when we had to deal with a problem (that was not related to the hotel), acting as if it was the most natural thing.

It wasn't very obvious how to get inside on foot when arriving in the evening - there is a button close to the parking grid we didn't see at first.

Secure storage for our bicycles. Convenient to have bar and restaurant on site after arriving early evening and it being a bit of a walk into town for dinner. A large room and good bathroom.

Bar staff gave inconsistent service between customers and not very attentive. On arrival, the surrounding area is very unattractive but the hotel has a secure fence wuth controlled access so there was never any concerns about security once inside.

I think this hotel probably has the best staff, in a hotel I have stayed in for a long time..efficient, but warm and helpful, nothing too much trouble..really impressed..

Not the hotels fault but they should be in contact with the Maries office, the tertible rubbish along the drive down to hotel is disgusting..a health issue and very very of putting to have the hotel in such a bad area..fencing off the terrible properties beside would help..but the filth and rubbish thrown out by the residents gacking onto the hotel is a disgrace..the only positive is that parking is secure.. The hotel, staff, rooms are excellent..breakfast superb..no complaints

extremely friendly personnel, clean and tidy, very comfortable beds and a family room was nice for 4 persons. swimming pool was clean and not crowded, it was very very nice addition for us after long city walks in hot August. the breakfasts were usual, you can find cereals, fresh fruits, good cheese, fresh baguette, yogurt, croissants.

yes, the hotel looks tired , rooms are not new. just don’t expect 5 stars hotel when you are booking the budget one. it is pretty good for that price.

Nice room and clean. The hotel has a pool which is nice and clean too. Breakfast nice too. They have storage to lock your bike and staff is very nice and helpful.

It is a further out of the town but if you travel by car or bike you should be fine. The area has lots of mosquitoes, do not use the swimming pool after 5pm you will be bitten a lot!!

Great service, breakfast is very big and elaborate. personal did a good job making you feel at home. I asked for a quiet room and got it, clean big room for a great price.

the room was clean and cleaning service did a good job, however you can tell some small things might need some maintenance and repairs because of age.

Ample free parking, decent breakfast, clean, good lighting, historic center of Arles can be accessed on foot from hotel.

Plain, featureless decor, somewhat oppressive after a couple of nights.
