Le Chapeau Rouge sur Avallon

06/06/2026: The reception was very friendly. We had a room in the rear (newer) part of the building on the first floor. The room was quiet, and you could even sleep with the window open. The bed was comfortable. The hotel is well located for exploring the city, and parking is no problem. Breakfast is simple, but everything is available and is constantly replenished. Unfortunately, our room wasn't completely clean. There were still visible crumbs on the floor, and hair and glass/cup rings on the white table. The sliding door in the bathroom is a good, space-saving idea in principle, but the execution is flawed. You have to slide the door directly across the carpet, which makes it very difficult to open and close. It also sticks out significantly from the wall, creating a large gap, which somewhat compromises privacy when using the toilet. However, the room was still okay for one night.

04/06/2026: I recommend this establishment. The staff is welcoming and professional. Everything was perfect until the owner arrived to take our payment. He was very unpleasant because we had booked through Smartbox. He claimed he had fed us for free and therefore lost money. Simply withdraw from the system and you won't fill your establishment anymore.
