Отель Le Grand Duc, Валансен, Франция

Family business required us to be in Valenciennes , this place was convenient, reasonable and appeared to have some charm. The owner’s restaurant recommendation was spot on.

Apart from an exceptional stay in this beautiful hotel (and this was our second visit - see previous review) we were able to have a private dinner, which is usually only offered when there is a booking of at approx. 12 people. We were very lucky that there was a birthday party on the evening of 11th May and that made it possible to have an outstanding dinner experience with a great garden view (and the weather was nice as well). We will definitely be back to visit this hotel again. Great experience. Great old mansion house with outstanding interior design.

The hotel is a very nice old mansion house with a large garden. The interior design is absolutely exceptional. The garden is outstanding and very quiet. The breakfast was great and overall the stay was the best we have had in a long time in a hotel. Philippe was a very nice host who made our stay memorable and we will definitely come back as soon as possible. PS: There is a tram station right next to the hotel which made it very easy to visit the city center of Valenciennes.

Loved the house, the owner and staff were wonderful.

The owner was so kind. All the staff was so helpful. The breakfast was great! The garden was beautiful, and the decor was eclectic and pleasing. There was a cat and a dog and we really felt like part of the family. The owner made a great recommendation for dinner, and we had a nice time at this restaurant.
