Ibis Hotels in Sausheim

Great hotel close to border of France, Germany and Swisse. Perfect rooms for families, nice and clean. I stayed with 2 kids and had pleanty of room perfect bed and bathroom. Restaurant, swimpool and bistro are nice to stay.

Not sure what people expect for their money these days but overall we had a good stay. We paid last minute €103 euros for 2 adults and 2 children with access to a swimming pool. Pros *Good quiet location (we used as a stopover to Switzerland) *Okay swimming pool for the kids to take a quick dip. Sunloungers available. *Games such as ping pong, large connect 4, footballs, badminton, boules etc and a nice green area next to the pool to play. We had great fun with the kids. *Toddler corner with large lego bricks, books and games near the bar area (great for watching the kids while enjoying a drink) *nice breakfast - (but not sure it’s worth the €15 price tag). Xx an air in or outdoors *nice outdoor seating in garden area *ice cold water dispenser to fill water bottles Cons *No air con. We stayed when it was 30degrees with only 1 small fan. *Could only open window a little as we were on ground floor with small children. Needless to say we didn’t sleep well. *Food in main restaurant wasn’t great and around €18/€23 per person. Limited menu for dinner - steak tartare, burger, steak, sausage & mash, swordfish, a salad. I had the burger and my partner had the steak. My burger was tasteless. Didn’t rate the steak - so they not season their food here? *kids menu is €13 and consists of a main and dessert. Again, not great quality for the price. Moral of the story here - try and eat before you arrive or check out the local Italian restaurants nearby. *drinks are EXPENSIVE! €9/10 a pint and €4.5 for a Coca Cola! Rooms: *are designed in a ‘retro’ style but I must say our room was really clean, 8” *no chipped furniture, no stains on carpets or walls etc. *Fluffy towels and clean bedding *kettle and some hot beverages available in room but no tea. *Bathroom looked new (although in a dated style) so no complaints here really. *Bed was comfy enough for 1 night. Check in is very Informal, it’s a laptop at a desk in the foyer - this seems to bother some people?! All in all the main thing that let it down for me was the main meal, not good quality and overpriced. It’s too hot during summer months so take an extra fan or your own air con unit.

Our experience at Roi Soleil Mulhouse was unfortunately not ideal, but this was only partially the hotel’s fault. The non working AC unit in our room on an unseasonably warn fall night was definitely an issue that kept us from getting a good nights sleep, but equally important was our failure to recognize a double bed was not going to work for a couple who usually use a king size. A twin room ( assuming a queen was not possible) would have been a better option; lesson learned from our perspective. Our room was small, but clean and the bed was reasonably comfortable, especially in light of the very reasonable room rate. I don’t think we’d stay there again, but for the budget traveller,it’s a decent option.
