Cité Scientifique Hotels, Lille

"What a pleasant surprise this hotel was. I walked here from the train station and, upon arrival, the outside in no way prepares you for the excellence inside. This is such a well-thought out concept, with no space wasted but luxury for all that. With many eco-friendly touches - from the compostable coffee pods to the water stations on each floor to refill your bottles - accompanied by information so you know that you are doing good staying here. They even donate €2 each day that you decline room service. There is a drop-down work desk, luggage rack, USB ports in the bedside tables, wardrobe, espresso machine with pods, free WiFi and TV. The bed & bedding are insanely good and 100% natural fibres! The shower was a cracker, too with a lovely rain-shower head. The toiletries were lovely and eco-friendly while the towels were soft and lush. Breakfast is available in The Club off the lobby, where you can work and socialise while enjoying complimentary snacks and drinks all day. I only stayed two nights but now that I know they exist, I’ll be staying in their properties in the future. While the brand is currently in France only, I hope they expand their territory soon."

"The hotel is undergoing a refurbishment. My room was one that has been upgraded and it is done to a high standard. The apart-hotel room is spacious, clean, comfortable and I would recommend it. There are some sound issues with the adjoining room, but this is pretty minor. The location is excellent for trains, metro and walking into Vieux Lille. "

"Great location and friendly staff. "

"The hotel in overall was great, quiet and exactly what we expected. Room was spacious, clean and functional with its modern look. Staff were very helpful, understanding and friendly. "

"The location is great and there’s a big Carrefour around the corner. It’s easy accessible to go to both train stations. "

"Right in the centre. Well positioned for shops, bars and restaurants. Near both railway stations. Only problem was parking as the hotel couldn't accommodate us."
