Hotel de la Poste - Relais de Napoleon III

The hotel is reasonable. It can’t be anything more than this. Rooms (309/311) are on the 3rd floor with a river view. They are both sold as superior river view rooms. They do have river views but are not superior in any way if you’ve stayed in other hotels. There is no air conditioning ( the hotel is old and built from stone and wood - and heats up to the point where you cannot sleep) but a noisy electric fan is provided. There are no USB charging sockets in the room and the shower is basic with distinctly average shower gel / shampoo bottle attached to the wall. The floor is wooden and squeaks a lot and the decor is bland (although this is, of course, subjective). In our view it needs a desperate refurbishment of the bedrooms and bathrooms….some of the rooms have a refurbished bathroom if you’ve stayed ask. The hotel has an underground secure (ish) garage for cars and motorbikes accessed via a room key from outside and inside. There are additional charges for parking - approx €18-20 euros for a car and half that for motorbikes per night. Location wise it is good as it is in the centre of town right by the bridge and the food is good with friendly service staff. Nice bar and restaurant area for views and evening meals / breakfast. Breakfast is basic continental affair and they offer a half board with 3 course meal options…which we took and had carrot soup as an amuse bouche for the first 3 days! You can ask to go a la carte which offers a few other dishes. The middle aged lady on reception was reasonably unhelpful and couldn’t really be bothered to help - with any request greeted with a sigh like it was too much trouble - perhaps she should recognise she works in hospitality and perhaps try to help guests a bit harder? Apparently it’s a family run hotel and this is not my first time staying here. Overall it’s an ok place to stay if visiting Bouillon for a couple of days - but it also appears there is a new hotel being built almost next door due to open summer 2026 - I think we will look there in future! This is for the reasons outlined above - the rooms need an urgent upgrade to modern standards and the attitude of the front desk lady need to be more friendly and helpful. I’m paying a lot of money to stay here and felt like an unwanted guest.

The hotel is well situated by the river, and has great secure underground parking. We had a really dated room (not like the photos on here), which although looking quite old and tired, was clean and very comfortable with good water pressure in the shower. I can only think the hotel must be updating rooms over time, and we had one which hadn't been modified yet. The breakfast was ok (not great). We ate in the attached bar/restaurant outside - the food was tasty and the drinks were good.

My wife and I spent two nights at the Hotel De La Poste. Our room was comfortable, light and airy and had a lovely view over the river to the castle and hills beyond. An electric fan helped keep it cool in the very how weather. The staff were polite and helpful. The hotel’s location is very convenient being right in the town centre. There was ample parking in the underground car park, which was very useful. There were no tea/coffee making facilities in our room. We did not try breakfast as the charge was some 20 Euros per person. Instead, we ate breakfast at the tea room across the square for a quarter of the price! The main negative point was the constant thud, thud, thud of the base from the music in the ground floor bar, which made it much too noisy to have the windows open.

Nice building very well located. Lobby, bar and restaurant well decorated wirh a warm atmosphere. Rooms are quite comfortable but without possibilities to make coffee or tea . I recommand to stay at this hotel

Stayed here for one night en route to Aachen. Lovely older hotel situated in a beautiful location by the river. Room was old fashioned but comfortable and very clean with a view over the river and towards the castle. The retaurant looked amazing but we did not eat there. Had drinks at the outdoor bar and enjoyed the warm weather. Parking was available at a cost in the hotel's undergroud car park. Bouillon is a lovely little town with numerous restaurants / bars etc. It is a delightful place to explore.

It's a quite good hotel well located near the Semois. They managed to keep an historical atmosphere without being oldish. The Personnel is smiling and professional, especially at the restaurant. The gastronomic restaurant has a limited but qualitative menu. Taste, presentation and quantity guaranteed. The breakfast is large and extremely various. 2 little things to mention however: the lack of air-conditioning made the room quite hot under this Easter sun and the TV broadcasting was often interrupted making it difficult to follow any program. Nice place to spent a weekend.
