B&B HOTEL Lille Villeneuve d'Ascq Hôtel de Ville

I was working in the close-by Lille area and this seemed the best option - both in terms of affordability and general location too. The check in was good and very swift - I was in my room within 5 minutes of arriving at their desk. The general decor of the reception area was modern and very welcoming; with a well-stocked bar too. My room was more than adequate - I had a decent desk (which was needed as I was travelling for work), a good sized double bed and a good sized bathroom with a shower. Towels are provided. The room was tidy and despite being situated close to a road - there was absolutely no noise at all. I had an incredibly cosy sleep. I would have preferred a tea / coffee making facility within the room. Breakfast was tasty and there was plenty of it - with cold meats, cheeses and bread alongside sausage, bacon and scrambled eggs. Coffee and juice were also provided. It was more than adequate and will keep me going beyond lunch time! I travelled into Lille in the evening - an Uber was just over 10 euros, or there is a Metro close by. Incredibly accessible.

Stayed here as part of tour to watch the rugby at the nearby stadium. Fantastic location, just a 15-20 minute walk to stadium and 5-10 walk to local shopping centre with all the big stores including an Auchan, and also where the Metro station is located. Like elsewhere in France most places closed on a Sunday so the area is very quiet but only a 10 minute ride on the Metro and you are in the centre of Lille, with plenty of squares with great bars and cafes. The staff at the Ibis were lovely, friendly and very helpful, but had great sympathy for them on the Saturday evening as the bar was very crowded as people returned from the rugby match, wanting drinks and pizzas, I’m sure they would have appreciated more staff. We had a great pizza and watched the evening matches which were shown on the TV and large screen. I thought, from reading reviews, that breakfast may be disappointing but no, a lovely surprise, not busy and plenty of choice, choice of teas, fruit juices and coffee , pastries , some fruit and a small cold meat selection, and a small hot choice of bacon, sausages and scrambled egg, the egg was not very warm but just a very small complaint, thoroughly enjoyed everything! I would not hesitate to recommend this Ibis hotel, and a big thank you to the staff.

There's no way this is a 3 star hotel. No amenities, nothing! Small rooms, typical European, the way I see it, but damn, nothing, besides beds and heh, bed sheets. No fridge, but hey, where would you actually put it?! Nice staff, and decent bar area, but other than that I wouldn't recommend this for more than a day.
