Need Hotel in Rouen

Does anyone know of a hotel or B&B in Rouen ,not over 90 euros. Just need one night. Would like a central location ,having an elevator or not have to climb too may steps up to the room floor. Do you know anything about breakfast & parking? We'll have a car & I would think it's difficult to find a parking spot in the central area.<BR>Help!

I stayed last April at the Hotel Cardinal directly across from the Cathedral. It was 360 Francs or $49 at that time, breakfast not included. Don't know what that is in euros. Excellent restaurant next door, Restaurant Paul. Hotel was recommended in Rick Steves book and it was good. I didn't have a car but I can say that parking is very tight in the central area. Very narrow medieval streets, that's why it is so popular with tourists. Great city for walking.

Does the Cardinal have parking facilities? Anyone have information on the Hotel Tulip Inn. I think this must be a chain hotel & may be more money but perhaps not too much more.Another choice is Hotel des Carmes on 'place des Carnes'but I can't seem to locate the area.<BR>A few weeks ago someone posted a great site for Rouen either here or on another message board but I can't seem to find that address anywhere. Does anyone recall seeing it?

The hotel Carmes is in an excellent location, not very far from a public parking area where you should be able to leave your car. It's almost centrally located in the middle of all the great cathedrals. If you drew a circle around the four centrally located cathedrals and the Musee' de Beaux Arts, Carmes would be almost in the center of the circle. I don't know about the Tulip. The Carmes is also very reasonably priced. As for a Rouen web site, I would think you could find a link by going to the www.france-tourism.com site.

Christina: Yes , many thanks . I just couldn't find it!<BR><BR>Wayne: and thanks to you also. I found a very little bit of info on Christina's site re. the Carmes Hotel. Now I'm concerned because it's so cheap. The web site she gave just had the phone # etc & general prices . the web site you suggested is not up & running yet. So do you or ANYONE ELSE have any info on the Carmes? The one site listes it as a *. Should I be concerned?
