Maison Mathilde is a pearl in the city of Valenciennes. It is an oase of peace, tranquility and luxury in this old North-France city. A major asset to the hotel is Mme Ludivine, who takes care of reception, welcoming, breakfast. Her spirit breaths Maison Mathilde. The overall decoration of the shared functions and the private rooms are beautifully, contemporary designed. We felt very welcome, safe and at home, far away from home.

I can't find anything to improve. The only minor comment would be to have a more flexible check-in time, as now it is limited from 17:30 to 19:30, but again that's not a big deal at all.

Maison Mathilde is in the class of fine boutique hotels, but is a B&B. The breakfast is excellent, the rooms exceed any expectation. We had one called "Jeff", forty square meters with a tub, nice shower and good furniture. King size bed with a perfect mattress. With a free-standing tub in the room itself (no separate bathroom), of course you have to be good friends to share the room with someone, but it is a cool decor. The house is an old mansion with a big park right outside the large breakfast room and lobby.

Actually we almost gave up on finding Maison Mathilde and lodge somewhere else. Because of roadwork, the gps couldn't lead us to the right address, and it was really difficult to find. I think Maison Mathilde might improve the service by informing arriving guests about that and make sure they can actually find their way to this truly wonderful B&R

Beautiful property & large luxurious room. Nice breakfast. Beautiful large private garden.

As there were no other guests is seemed a bit soulless. Difficult to get information regarding local restaurants. Seemed a bit strange with drying laundry hanging on the balustrade during evening. Were told there was no parking available but after paying for overnight public parking discovered there was space on site for several vehicles

Maison Mathilde is nicely restored in a modern yet rustic look. The room was comfortable and clean with all needed facilities. The breakfast was excellent and plenty. Coffee and omelet made freshly for us. Pastry and bread was of a high quality. I recommend Maison Mathilde highly.

A little wonderland in the middle of Valencienne. Spacious rooms with interesting details (huge kitchen counter, cealing beams in the sleeping room, freestanding bath) attached to an old, very well restored mansion with a beautiful garden. From the terrace, which is very well furnished you have a beautiful overview. The beds are very comfortable and the location was very quiet. Easy parking directly at the mansion.

Nothing

Superb location, private and quiet, amazing decor.

Overhead rain shower needed repair, and milk and spoon in room would have been nice to go with the coffee.

The breakfast was wonderful. Freshly squeezed orange juice, fresh croissant and pain au chocolat, eggs and lots more..... very friendly and devoted hosts.

The jacuzzi in the room made som noice during the night, but other wise perfect stay.

Fab rooms and house with floodlit gardens and secure parking. Breakfast was superb.

No need to have the garden floodlights on all night!

The view of the garden, the quietness of the room, the friendly staff member, a very good breakfast.

Check in time 17h30 is quite late. We arrived at 14h30, and had to amuse ourselves for 3 hours before we were allowed onto the premises. Also, could muesli be added to the breakfast menu?

The breakfast was sober but fresh and good.

I missed some eggs. Music was not my kind of morning music
