Ibis Styles Mâcon Centre

房間還是比較小，早餐很少不豐富，服務還可以，辦理入住退房都很方便很快，床特別小，一個大男人的話睡起來會感覺很小

We stayed here for one night on our way to the south of France from the UK. It is well located for going to a restaurant for dinner in Macon. The car park is secure but over the road. On arrival, the lift was not functional. The staff were friendly and helpful and gave us our two rooms which we had booked as a family of three. The rooms were in a private enclave with a locking door which meant we could keep the actual bedroom doors open, very convenient. The rooms are basic, small and a little old now but comfortable enough. The air con was reasonably effective but a bit noisy. Bathrooms functional but one of them extremely small and the door did not slide fully shut allowing some bad smells to escape. We had breakfast included. It was very basic and frankly, not very good.

Central location and friendly staff. Small room and bathroom but clean and quiet, just as I had asked. Breakfast was sufficient with various bread, viennoiseries, jams, cheese, cold cuts, fresh fruits, yoghurt, ... And good coffee. There is a garage underneath the hotel but you will need to reserve because it has only 7 places of which 2 for electrical cars. A good choice for a stopover.

A typical Ibis Styles, which give you a bit more than an ordinary Ibis provides. It’s located on a one-way street close to the railway station and not far from the river. The English speaking staff were really helpful, one even giving us his umbrella as there was a threat of heavy rain when we went to dinner. The only problem we encountered was that the lift wasn’t working, so lots of walking up and down stairs, but these things happen. The inclusive extras included free coffee and croissants available in reception and a good buffet breakfast. This included a good range of cold meat and cheeses, an orange juicing machine (lovely) and hot choices. There is garage parking just down the street, but the wrong way so a drive around the block and not a problem, which cost €9.50 for my motorcycle and was very secure. Would happily stay here again.

It may have been my fault. I have previously stayed at an Ibis Styles and thought it was great and a premium version of basic Ibis but downmarket compared to Novotel and Mercury. I had stayed at a basic Ibis in Leeds in the previous week. Styles Macon was not as good as the basic Ibis. No kettle, noisy, large room but not particularly comfortable. Problems such as the safe was locked (don’t staff check?) and a requested car parking space not reserved - so sent to a car park 3 stories up with no lift which isn’t great when you’re in your 70’s with luggage.
