Hôtel L'Arbre Voyageur

Top choice in Lille


Behind a fretted glass-and-steel facade in the former Polish Consulate's post-Soviet building, the 2016-opened Hôtel L'Arbre Voyageur has 48 stylised rooms (including four suites) with custom-made furniture and minibars stocked with free soft drinks, and a bamboo- and palm-filled courtyard. Green initiatives span solar panels to a free drink for guests who don't want their linen changed every day.

Along with two restaurants (one serving cocktails and small sharing plates, the other local organic specialities), there's an on-site deli/bakery stocking wine, Champagne and snacks. Breakfast costs €16. Family rooms sleep up to four; baby cots, babysitting and bottle warmers can be arranged.
