This hotel was just about right for us, not in the City centre but handy for it (10 mins or so). Four of us had a weekend break there via Railbookers (Travel, Room, B&B). The rooms were on the second floor, looking into what had been the Cloister Garth. These were of a good standard, clean and tidy, as was... More

My first trip ever to llelle in france we stayed in a old convent which was fantastic the rooms were so clean and spacious and the hotel still had its oldie worldie look about it still very much like a convent. Breakfast was continental but the choice was fantastic. about 10 min walk to the middle of the town. More

The Couvent des Minimes, or Alliance Lille, or is an easy walk from the city centre and close by the Citadelle with its greenery, canals and wildlife (popular with joggers). Inside the hotel focuses on the carefully converted and restored (1990) light and airy vaulted cloisters of the original convent with wrap around balconies at 1st and 2nd floor levels.... More

We stayed at the Couvent des minimes for a conference were well looked after and it was a good situation on the edge of the town. An unusual building converted which meant our room was on 4th floor with sloping walls. Very comfortable despite the unusual shape although bed on the hard side. Good choice at breakfast and the Gala... More

We had a wonderful stay in room 220 well away from the noisy atrium tea & coffee in the room and sausage bacon and scrambled egg for breakfast. It is a little tired but very clean and they appear to be upgrading on a room by room basis. Well situated for walking around the cty being between the citadel and... More

We have just spent two nights in a large triple room. The room could have done with a bit of freshening up decor wise but other than that it was clean and had plenty of space for clothes/storage. The bathroom and toilet were separate which was a nice touch and again both were very clean.We stayed on the second floor... More

Having attended a conference here a few years ago, I decided it would be a nice place to stay when I returned to Lille with my partner for a weekend break. The hotel is in a lovely location, tucked away in a renovated canal area. It is very close to the old town and many shops, bars and restaurants. However,... More

This hotel is a converted convent, so there were lots of beautiful features like exposed brick beams and high ceilings. Our room was on the 2nd floor facing the inside car park, but it was nice enough and quiet. Rooms were modern but with remnants of 1980s decor. For instance, I'm not sure why they would chose to keep the... More

This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel, the first time we had a room facing the Quai du Wault, so there was very little noise. This time we had a room facing the inner courtyard of the hotel, which houses the restaurant and bar. As a result the room was very noisy as this area is... More
