    Friendly staff. Nice clean rooms. Good location to walk into old part of town. Terrace at the front to sit and have a beer.

    Small parking area which I didn’t realise you had to book a space. Had to put 4 motorcycles in the underground car park up the road a little way. Wasn’t to much of a problem apart from unloading and loading luggage.

    Good Position and good breakfast.

    No Air conditioning inside the rooms! Parking available just for a few cars! SPA area not available after 7pm . The lift floor is broken. Definitely not a 4 stars as supposed to be!!!

    Property response:

    Dear Antonio, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re pleased that you enjoyed our central location—ideal for accessing shops and services on foot—as well as our breakfast buffet, which is often highlighted by our guests for its variety and quality. Regarding your comments, we would like to clarify the following: Air conditioning: As mentioned on our website and partner platforms, our rooms are not equipped with air conditioning. Due to our location at high altitude in Briançon, temperatures remain naturally cool at night, even in summer. For added comfort, fans are provided in each room. Parking: As clearly stated on our official website and on Booking.com, our private parking is available by reservation only due to our central location and limited capacity. The availability and price are also indicated at the time of booking, so that you have all necessary information before confirming your stay. That said, as you noticed, several public parking options are available near the hotel. SPA: Our SPA is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., as noted on the welcome sheet you received upon arrival and on the door of the wellness area. This facility is offered free of charge for the comfort and relaxation of our guests. Elevator: We appreciate your feedback about the elevator floor. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience. Maintenance is already scheduled. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again and providing an even better experience.

    We had lot noise from outside on the first night. And since there is no AC, we suffered from the heat.

    Property response:

    Hello Jean-Laurent, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the accommodation clean — this is something we take great pride in. We’re sorry to learn that you were disturbed by outside noise and the heat during your first night. As mentioned on our website and partner platforms, our property is located right in the center of Briançon, close to shops and amenities. There can be some car traffic, but nothing like in big cities — Briançon is still a small mountain town, generally quiet and peaceful. Regarding air conditioning, we do not have any, as also stated in our listings. However, thanks to the altitude, temperatures naturally drop at night, which usually ensures a comfortable sleep. For our guests’ comfort, a fan is provided in each bedroom. Thank you again for your comments; they help us continually improve our guests’ experience. The Sowell Le Parc & Spa team, Briançon

    Dear Bronte, Thank you very much for your positive feedback! We’re delighted to hear you appreciated the room’s amenities — the coffee machine, refrigerator, towel heater, separate toilet room, and the fresh fruit provided upon your arrival. These little touches are designed to make your stay more comfortable, and we’re glad they met your expectations. The view of the Alps from the Briançon valley is indeed a highlight often mentioned by our guests, and we’re happy you enjoyed it as well. Our helpful staff is also one of the points frequently praised by our clients, and we’re very pleased to have had the opportunity to welcome you.

    City centre location made it easy to walk out in the evenings to find a nice restaurant nearby. I had an issue with my first room, and the staff changed this quickly and without hesitation, which was appreciated. The room I had was good. Breakfast was OK.

    The parking at the hotel was free, but it soon filled up with motorcyclists.

    Property response:

    Dear Lowe, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our central location and that you were able to explore the city easily. Indeed, we are located in the center of Briançon, so all shops and restaurants are easily accessible on foot from the hotel. It’s also great to know that our team could quickly assist with your room change and that you were satisfied with the room provided. Your kind words about our service are truly appreciated — we will pass your message on to our staff; they will be happy to hear it! Regarding the parking, we strongly recommend booking your parking space in advance, as being right in the city center, we have limited spots available. Indeed, the parking fills up very quickly, especially with motorcyclists during this time of year. However, we do our best to accommodate all our guests, so even without an advance reservation, we try to make sure that our clients can park in our lot whenever possible. We appreciate your understanding and are continuously looking for ways to improve this aspect of our service. Thank you once again for your review. We hope to welcome you back in the near future.

    Rooms slightly outdated and very small. Sigh...another hotel shower that gets the entire bathroom wet. Those little glass walls that only extend 1/3 of the length of the tub are mostly useless.

    Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was average.

    The bedroom was small and too dark even with all the lights on. The toilet was separate from the bathroom and this made both rooms tiny with no where to put anything. Also there was a door closing off the bedroom area from the entrance and bathroom so there were 4 doors in a very confined area which was ridiculous. This was definitely not worth 4 stars, and would hesitate before staying in another hotel of this chain.

    Property response:

    Dear Tony, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the friendliness and helpfulness of our reception staff. Regarding your remarks, we’d like to clarify that in France, one of the criteria for a 4-star hotel classification is having separate toilet and bathroom facilities. We understand that this layout can feel compact, but it is part of the national standards we follow. The additional door between the bedroom and entrance is designed to reduce noise coming from the corridor and provide a more restful environment. We appreciate your comment about the breakfast and will work on improving the offering to meet our guests’ expectations better. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and offer a more satisfying experience. Best regards, L'équipe Sowell Le Parc & Spa, Briançon

    Central location.

    Nothing felt 4-star. Tiny rooms with cheap design. Only one elevator. Unfriendly service. Very basic "spa". No parking except paid parking for 6 cars out of 69 rooms. If I were to guess I'd rate this as a 2-star hotel.

    Property response:

    Dear David, Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions following your recent stay with us. We’re pleased to hear that our central location met your expectations—it’s indeed something many of our guests appreciate for its convenience and proximity to the city’s main attractions. We are, however, sorry to learn that certain aspects of your stay did not fully meet your expectations. Your comments regarding the room size, spa, elevator, and parking have been carefully noted and will be shared with the relevant teams as part of our ongoing efforts to improve the guest experience. With regard to your observation about our hotel’s star rating, it’s worth clarifying that hotel classifications are based on regulated and objective criteria—mainly related to the facilities and services offered, such as 24-hour reception, elevator access, daily housekeeping, and more. We understand that these standards may not always align with personal expectations regarding design or comfort, and we appreciate your feedback on this point. As for your impression of our staff, we were particularly surprised and saddened to read your comment. The friendliness and professionalism of our team are frequently praised in other guest reviews, and this does not reflect the experience we strive to deliver every day. That said, we take your feedback seriously and will ensure our standards remain consistently high. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and provide you with a stay more in line with your expectations. The Sowell Le Parc & Spa team, Briançon
