About this place Le Napoleon

Le Napoléon is a mid-range hotel on Place de la Gare, directly opposite Lille-Flandres station. It is a mainstream hotel listed as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. Google reviewers rate it 4.0 from about 1,800 reviews. Its main selling point is location if you arrive by train. Lille-Europe, for Eurostar and TGV services, is about five minutes away on foot. The Grand Place is around ten minutes' walk, and Vieux-Lille, where most of the city's gay bars are, is a little further. Rooms facing the square can get station noise.

The rooms are rather cramped and noisy. But hey, it's right next to the train station... Breakfast isn't great. There's what you need, but it's quite basic. The cheese portions are from the day before, the ham slices are still wrapped in cellophane... otherwise, it's not too bad. We had dinner there the night before: no complaints...

We were treated like princesses! The staff were exceptionally kind. The meal was adapted to my daughter's surgery two days prior (wisdom tooth removal), thanks to the thoughtful team who made an ice pack for her. The meal was delicious, the portions generous, and the service quick. The non-alcoholic piña colada and the tuna were absolutely excellent. A huge thank you to the tavern team. Don't change a thing. It's so lovely!

We went to the bar. We received a very warm welcome from Juju, the waiter, who was lovely. The cappuccino was delicious, all for a very reasonable price. We'll be back! 😊

I stopped to eat at this small brasserie upon arriving in Lille for a two-day trip and had a very bad experience. Served by Théo, I found the service inattentive: my order was taken quickly, my main course and drink were brought to me without any offer of dessert, and then I was charged immediately. I felt no interest whatsoever, and the friendliness was barely there. I even had to ask for my drink after my main course had been served. The response I received was, "Yes, it's coming, sir, just be patient." As for the Maroilles omelet, I highly doubt it was actually melted Maroilles. The taste and texture were more reminiscent of Raclette cheese. I do not recommend this establishment.
