Description

About 15 kilometers from the centre of Saint-Etienne and its Geoffroy-Guichard stadium, the Best Western Saint-Etienne Porte du Forez, Andrezieux-Boutheon, France, makes an easy choice for business or leisure, set in the Loire Forez business park with a swimming pool and a restaurant with a terrace in leafy surroundings. With meeting rooms totaling more than 350 square metres for training days and seminars of up to a hundred and eighty, and free secure parking, the hotel is well set up for events as well as a quiet stay. The green setting keeps things calm just outside the city. The Forez plain rolls out between the Loire and the volcanic hills of the Monts du Forez, with the working city of Saint-Etienne, its design museum, and the surrounding countryside of medieval villages and priories all close. Beyond the business park, the green Forez hills rise quietly to the west.

"Super lunch plenty of choice"
Sharon H, 19 Avril 2026

We really enjoyed our choice of food this Sunday afternoon. Waiting staff are super friendly and our food was really delicious. My husband ordered the chicken dish and I opted for a burger medium to well. Both cooked to perfection. You don't need to be staying at this hotel to dine here. So if you are passing on your way to the south why not choose to have lunch / diner at the hotels restaurant.

"Hotel a home from home"
Richard G, 15 Septembre 2024

I often stay at this hotel for business. It's like a 'home from home' friendly, welcoming staff. Great room with a funky shower and cool coffee machine. The breakfasts are healthy and there's lots of choice and it' nice to eat it at the tables by the outdoor swimming pool. Recommend.

"3 night stay."
K4777GVmartins, 11 Mars 2023

Generally good. Wouldn't class as a 4 star. 3 night stay while working in Veauche. Rooms comfortable and clean. Restaurant reasonable. Good Breakfast choice from an English person's perspective. Staff helpful, especially as my French is schoolboy French from 40 years ago.

Owner Response, 11 Mars 2023

Dear K4777GVmartins, We thank you for your feedback and are delighted that our establishment lived up to your expectations (even though you were there for work). What are we missing to get a 5/5? We look forward to seeing you again! Best Regards,

"Super hospitalilty"
mrozer, 07 Août 2022

When you are traveling you get tired. When you get tired and hungry you need a nice and clean place to stay. We found it all at this hotel, but furthermore the workers in the hotel (all of them) were so nice and helpful that it made us write this here and now. So thank you HOTEL BY GEORGETTE - BEST WESTERN

Owner Response, 07 Août 2022

Cher Mrozer, C'est avec une immense joie que nous lisons votre commentaire et nous sommes ravis que votre séjour chez nous vous ait plus ! Au plaisir de vous revoir ! L'équipe By Georgette

"St Just best western"
petervacher, 18 Septembre 2018

Good service, friendly staff, great food. I would recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the region for either business or pleasure. The outside setting is perfect with a small basic pool and many relaxing chairs with tables for dining. In addition the road network is great.

Dear Sir, We thank you for having to put down your comment on the internet. It is a pleasure to read your opinion about the hotel staff. Best regards. Marlène Caporusso, Directrice

"Worse westeren - No air conditioning"
265farhanm, 08 Juillet 2018

No airco in room. rooms are boiling like sauna and temp outside is better then in room's. At nighs i have to open window,but cant sleep with open window as it sounds like lying next to F1 track. We had 5 rooms in 2 floors all same. Breakfast is very basic and not included in price. Overall its 2 star hotel.Simply don't waste time and money.

Owner Response, 08 Juillet 2018

Dear Sir, We thank you for the comment you have left on Tripadvisor. We are really sorry to learn about your disappointment regarding the air conditioning. The whole building is equipped with air conditioning but unfortunately we can not adjust it in the rooms. Regarding breakfast, please note that we also have offers including it in the rate on our website Bestwestern.com Kind regards, Marlène Caporusso, General Manager

"Wonderfully surprising hotel"
GillF76, 04 Juin 2018

Definitely a case of first impressions DON'T count. Upon arrival, you drive through a industrial area, but once you pass through the gates, it really is a delightful surprise. Plenty parking, a wonderful welcome from a very organised reception and very spacious rooms. Although the showers have great water pressure, they're a little difficult to position, but some patience and you'll manage just fine. The food was really impressive. We had a lovely dinner, followed by one of the better breakfast buffets we've seen in France. In all, a highly recommended option.

Owner Response, 04 Juin 2018

Dear Sir, We thank you for the comment left on tripadvisor. We are really happy to see that your stay has met your expectations. We hope to see you soon again. King Regards, Marlène Caporusso, Manager

"Ok rooms a bit basic but good restaurant"
Paul s, 24 Février 2018

Rooms a bit basic and shabby but the restaurant was quite good and a reasonable price with the meal option as part of the room package. OK for a short overnight stay and good transport links . She wifi was a pain however as you constantly need to re-enter your login details

Owner Response, 24 Février 2018

Dear Sir, We thank you for having to put down your comment on the internet. We are happy to read that the restaurant is ok for you but we do apologize for the problem with the internet access. Best regards. Marlène Caporusso, Manager.

"Good hotel for business"
simon s, 13 Mai 2016

Spent three nights here while on business, found the hotel clean today and very friendly.the restaurant was good as we ate in every night. The breakfast is excellent and set you up for the day. Personally I didn't sleep well for no apparent reason.

"O.K. - but expect more from Best Bestern"
lulmex, 20 Février 2016

hotel is outside of town: no public transport. Taxi is 30euros to the city centre. Employees dont speak english, but friendly. food is ok (nothing special) - breakfast buffet as well. building is not looking nice and modern, the toilet is a seperate room, tight and without a window. rooms are very spacious would book it again, but only when i need to go to saint etienne aeroport (which is more an airfield) and only when i'm by car

"A good hotel"
Groovemasterjay, 10 Juillet 2015

A good hotel but getting old. Rooms are clean and wide enough for a solo, no special design but practical. The restaurant is ok, not the greatest food, but the menu is wide enough to pick something every night without getting bored. Personnel is efficient and pleasant. Swimming pool is nice and very well appreciated during summer. Wifi in the room is fast and stable.

Owner Response, 11 Juillet 2015

Cher client, Merci d'avoir pris le temps de déposer votre commentaire, nous sommes ravis que votre séjour se soit bien déroulé. A bientôt. Alexandra Bertolini Directrice

"Handy Hotel for Airport"
LYNEMIKE, 28 Mai 2015

Ideal when using cheap flights instead of flying into Lyons Airport. Standard Hotel with pool. Rooms satisfactory and breakfast buffet typical of hotels in France. Have stayed here a few times on business.

"The best hotel ... around"
Groovemasterjay, 30 Mars 2015

In comparison to the surroundings, it is the best hotel. Even better than the Mercure in St Etienne. However, compared to regular standards, this hotel is getting old, in the design and the furniture. However, it is clean, wifi is stable and fast enough. Just avoid eating at the restaurant if you are a group of more than 6 persons. The service may be very slow. But personnel is nice and efficient. And the ratio price/quality is ok.

Owner Response, 30 Mars 2015

Thank you for your comment, we are happy to notice that cleanliness and welcome were as you expected. Concerning your remark on the slowness of the staff of restaurant, we are very sorry and we do apologize for this inconvenience but it remains an exception. Your satisfaction is really important for us.

"Worthy"
Jonathan F, 10 Mars 2015

As airport hotels go this one has several advantages. To start with it is not on an airport and the airport referred to doesn't seem to have any flights. All of which should make for a quiet night. Unfortunately they negate these advantages by having an unstoppable forced ventilation system next to the bed. For those of us unused to sleeping inside a vacuum cleaner, earplugs are essential. However the room is a good size and the staff are polite. All of this is combined with the charm of a 1990s Novotel, ok if you're a business traveller working nearby but I don't think I'll be coming here for my holidays

Owner Response, 10 Mars 2015

We do apologize and we are very sorry about the inconvenience engendered by the unstoppable forced ventilation which makes noise. We gave the instruction to the technical staff which will do what's necessary to improve the system. In the future we will try not to disappoint you anymore and we hope to welcome you again in our establishment.

"Would be back for sure!"
Ahmad M, 06 Septembre 2014

Me & my mom come oftenly to the hotel as its on of the best in the area and we liked everything food room service and they took good care of us as a regulars with such vip service. As a best western property that we strongly recommend that you should be Muslim Friendly putting signs with Halal food and marking pork food...etc Would come back!
