From the Napoléon III façade rising on Rue de Valenciennes, the Best Western Urban Hotel reveals a soothing blend of historical nobility and modern comfort. The calm of the Saint-Sauveur district contrasts pleasantly with the bustling city center, accessible in a 15-minute walk or four metro stops.
Forty rooms renovated in 2022 await business travelers, vacationers, and families. From the compact Solo category to the spacious Deluxe, each offers a surface between ten and twenty-five square meters, perfectly arranged for relaxation.
Urban tones interact with a few Second Empire touches: black-and-white photographs, restored moldings, contemporary lighting. High-quality hotel bedding comes with generous pillows, ensuring restorative sleep after a day exploring Lille.
The desk area allows you to finalize a project or plan the rest of your stay thanks to included high-speed Wi-Fi. An espresso machine and bottled filtered water add a thoughtful touch upon arrival.
Each bright bathroom features either a shower or bathtub, wall-mounted hairdryer, and organic cosmetic products with subtle aromatic notes. Individual air conditioning and double glazing ensure coolness in summer and constant silence.
Starting at 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, the breakfast buffet combines regional charcuterie, traditional breads, artisanal jams, and freshly pressed juices. On weekends, this gourmet rendezvous extends until noon, perfect for late risers.
For lunch or dinner, the restaurant Le Rococo offers a seasonal menu crafted on-site by the chef and his team. Reimagined classic dishes, refined sauces, and inspired desserts are enjoyed beneath coffered ceilings and period chandeliers.
When the weather is pleasant, the terrace and garden naturally extend the dining room. Deck chairs, poufs, and electrical outlets invite you to browse a guidebook or continue a video conference outdoors.
The spa provides a welcome moment of relaxation: the sauna and hammam are accessible at no extra charge, while a private jacuzzi completes the wellness area. A few fitness machines allow you to maintain a workout routine afterward.
The reception, open 24/7, boasts a multilingual team attentive to every request, from cultural advice to taxi bookings. A secure, complimentary parking lot (subject to availability) simplifies car arrivals, while the nearby V’lille station appeals to fans of eco-friendly mobility.
Speakers and exhibitors can reach Lille Grand Palais in ten minutes, benefiting from unlimited Wi-Fi to stay connected. Families, meanwhile, appreciate the connecting rooms and the option to add a baby crib at no extra cost.
In the former home of Monsieur Pouillet, a textile industrialist, Lille’s industrial past is recounted through marble floors and wrought-iron staircases. This authenticity adds character to an establishment that remains above all focused on hospitality and everyday comfort.
All that's left is to choose your dates: the door is open, the key waits at reception, and the city is ready to surprise you.
Just steps away, the Gare Saint-Sauveur regularly transforms into a pop-up art gallery, screening room, or roller-skating rink; a great opportunity to dive into Lille’s cultural scene. The vast Jean-Baptiste Lebas Park, right across, offers lawns, playgrounds, and shared gardens for a verdant break after your visits.
In ten minutes by metro, the Palais des Beaux-Arts reveals one of France's richest collections: Flemish paintings, medieval sculptures, and Napoleonic relief maps sit side by side. Stroll afterward through the Vieille Bourse, admire the City Hall belfry, then explore the cobbled streets of Vieux Lille, before retreating to the tranquil comfort of your room.
Concerts, conventions, and international trade shows bring Lille Grand Palais to life year-round; inquire at reception to learn about the program during your stay.
If traveling with family, the Vauban Citadel and its free zoo offer a fun escape reachable in 20 minutes; a bucolic way to end the day before perhaps enjoying one last visit to the spa.
