Hôtel Céline - Hôtel de la Gare

The hotel is an old fashioned, car themed hotel. It’s very close to the rail station and the centre of town, and in a quiet neighbourhood. There is no air conditioning but the first room we stayed in, on the first floor, was cool enough with both windows open. Elise made sure we had gluten free bread, as requested, for our breakfast, which no other larger hotel did on our trip! We also were able to leave our bags so that we could explore Rouen after our second night, before our train left. Excellent service, a lovely little hotel. I’d highly recommend it.

We were moved to a room with two beds on our second night which was very warm. There was a fan which helped, but it was much cooler on the lower floors.

The staff member on reception, breakfast duty etc (she seemed to run the place single-handed) was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was a corner room with large windows, and had a lovely terrace just outside the window. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Quirky and interesting building and history.

Unfortunately I could not access the terrace as the window-sill to step over was too high. Perhaps a portable step could be provided? Also the room's electric outlets were in very strange places - though I discovered too late that an extension cord was provided.

First of all position because it’s near enough to the centre to walk but not in a busy road. Interesting and quirky with its motor racing history so everywhere there are signs, photos, bric-a-brac, and the rooms are themed with images and colours of its racing history. (Stirling Moss stayed there before it became an hotel).

Note that parking is limited but there are possible on-street spaces outside with payment required from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. @ €1.20/hr. Otherwise at the nearby railway station.

Superb hospitality from Laura at all hours. The hotel is a delight. I travelled with my daughter on this occasion but will be returning with my husband for a romantic break! The photos online do not do the cleanliness and style of the hotel justice. The district is quiet but a short walk to the main restaurants and bars etc.

The weather was unseasonably hot for Rouen. We had an attic room which was perfect in every way apart from the temperature. We were provided with a fan in the room which helped.

I loved the motor / car theme. really lovely building and wee had a cute seating area outside our window. the owners was lovely she could not have been more helpful. even though I don’t speak French she spoke English to help me. very warm and welcoming and 12mins away from city centre. I also loved we got a Garrage to park our car in at night (extra charge but worth it)

nothing

We stayed in the "Porsche" room for one night, which was unique, having the front wing of a 928 in the corner! The hotel is really well situated, a short walk from the city centre, and the receptionist was exceptionally welcoming and friendly. Comfortable and clean, it was a great stay.

The parking space was in a private garage, which was excellent, but it was a very small garage and tough to fit a saloon car into.

Love a hotel with a theme. There is car racing decor all over. The proprietors were both so friendly and attentive, and responsive to messages. The breakfast was indeed really good.

The room was a little small for two adults and a child.

Lovely staff, great breakfast, clean room with fresh bottle of water

Bed not very comfortable for me (I have a bad back so need a harder mattress)

We arrived 4 hours before the official check-in. Our room was ready and the host send us an instruction how to get-in. + allow ua to use cover parking. The room was clean.

The bathroom is too small

We had a very comfortable stay at Hotel Céline, the staff were all very friendly and helpful and the rooms were exactly what we needed, clean, comfortable and welcoming.
