La Table

The reception was super accommodating and helpful. We brought our baby and they set up a crib and got our room ready early so she could take her nap in the room. Breakfast and dinner were fantastic. There's an elevator that goes to the second floor so we could bring our stroller up easily. The carpet in the room is a bit old and needs a good clean, but this didn't impact our stay at all.

The staff was super professional, kind and helpful. When we asked to change our room, the receptionist kindly went out of her way to show us several. Location is great.||||However:tThis hotel is part of the Relais Chateaux collection. It is expensive. But so-called comfort rooms are definitely not comfortable. Ours was perched on the top floor of a “dependance”, and, to access it, one had to take a small elevator just next to a public toilet, go to the second floor, then climb a steep stair with very narrow steps. The room was okay, but with very low ceilings – a disappointment, having spent about 350 euros a night. Unfortunately, the other rooms shown to us by the very kind receptionist were not better – a possible sign the entire “comfort” category is overpriced and definitely not up to Relais Chateaux standards. Also, I asked for porridge for breakfast and got it – however, it was done in a microwave and as a result had the texture of a rubbery lump, again something surprising for a hotel at that level.||

We stayed at this hotel for a weekend trip to Lille and were very satisfied. The location is truly ideal: you can walk straight from the hotel into the lively shopping area, and restaurants and sights are all within walking distance. Perfect for a short city break when you want everything close by.

A few observations:||1. the breakfast service was rushed. Not sure why the server was in a hurry, but I felt pressured to make a choice quickly, even though it was only 9h30||2. The breakfast bread selection was OK, but not fantastic. A few of the items could have been fresher.||3. For the price you charge, I expect the omelette I requested to be a little more sophisticated than two eggs on a plate with nothing else||4. The garden is nice but the fake grass feels cheap for a hide end hotel||5. The constant background music all day and well into the night is highly distracting. It was too loud and it kept me awake in my room, which was right above the garden.

We stayed at the Clarance for one night on the way to a short break in Belgium. The hotel is lovely and our room was excellent. The hotel is situated in the heart of Lille so it is easy to reach any venue in the city. We stayed on a Sunday night and the restaurant was closed which was a shame. We came down just after 7am for breakfast - the breakfast itself was very good, but some of the items had not been put out when we arrived which was a little disappointing. Overall a great stay - we will aim to stay again on a day when the restaurant is available :)

Excellent staff, wonderfuul restaurant. Room was regularly hot and humid, curiously, although a simple opening of the windows remedied this. There was also an air conditioning unit that was made available, but which we did not use. Location is wonderful, beautiful buuilding that was decorated with taste.

We celebrated our wedding with friends and family and couldn’t be happier. The venue was beautiful, the food and wine were impeccable, and the staff were warm, professional, and never uptight. We truly loved our stay.

Terrible experience! Never coming back. This was our fourth visit in three years, and it will be the last. The change of chef is obvious — and not for the better. We ordered the monkfish tandoori: completely over-spiced, unpleasant, and not at all what you’d expect from La Table du Clarance. The dessert? Not even worth mentioning — a total disappointment. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this place.

Excellent place. Worth a visit. Perfect location and great welcoming staff. Beautifully decorated
