Rouen is a beautiful town and easy to walk around. The architecture is definitely the highlight from the churches to the half-timbered buildings.

5/5 - Excellent

My favorite city in France. Don't get me wrong, Paris is beautiful but Rouen is a city that offers old world charm and history with a dash of modern day. I will definitely return to Rouen and Hotel de Bourgtherould!
