8/10
On the positive side, the historical suite is magnificent. Well worth a try to travel back on time to the early 20th century. But they need to modernize a bit. USB plugs, power plugs that aren't all a few inches of the ground, a garbage ( maybe 2!!) And turn on the A/C. My room had a/c but the system was off. Made it very hot which forced me to open the windows and hear all the yelling from the street.
Breakfast was ok but bare bones. They could do much better! And they charge you if you want a cappuccino for breakfast instead of their stale coffee even if breakfast was included. Breakfast needs a serious revamp! Choices were very limited
Location is amazing. 2 minutes from the train station and airport shuttle. Super convenient. 3 minutes from the national museum and Stanislas square. Can't get more practical. But the park outside the train station ( Sherwood forest ) is a bit dodgy. Not dangerous, just unsightly. Lots of homeless and drunks minding their business.
Overall mixed feelings. This was once a very high end hotel. In some aspects it remains so. But in many areas they need to add modern conveniences to old world charm
