Summary of reviews related to the '3 Star' categoryGrand Hôtel Richelieu has earned praise for aspects that often surpass typical three-star expectations, particularly with its breakfast offerings and room quality. Many reviews highlight that the hotel's services, such as providing beach towels and assisting with luggage and wine storage, are commendable and often exceed the typical experience of a three-star establishment. The staff are frequently noted as being very professional and deserving of high marks for their service, often being described as worthy of a higher rating.
Some find the rooms surprisingly well-appointed for a three-star facility, although there are mentions of some issues with room and bedding quality as one might expect at this rating level. Room size has been a point of contention with several guests mentioning that they found the rooms too small for the star rating and price. The parking facility also drew criticism for not meeting expectations.
There are some mixed feelings about the value for money and amenities. While some guests argue that the experience is worth four stars, others feel the hotel is too expensive for what it offers as a three-star.
The breakfast is described as luxurious, albeit with a note that it lacks natural dairy products. Charging for a second coffee after breakfast is seen as average for a three-star, but it might disappoint some guests expecting a bit more inclusivity.
The cleanliness and equipment are generally deemed correct and acceptable for its category, although there are issues raised about the hotel's insulation and warmth. Despite some minor criticisms, Grand Hôtel Richelieu maintains a reputation as a very good three-star hotel with several guests even considering it more fitting of a four-star rating.
