I have to be in Lille next week for 2 nights. Wondering if there's anywhere good to say. What do you think FlyerTalk.

I think that this question is more suitable for the FT France Forum.

Why exactly? I'm looking for a luxury hotel in Lille. How does that not belong in the luxury hotel forum?

He also stayed at a sofitel in NYC, I pick my hotels based on criteria other than attractiveness of the prostitutes/maids. ;)

The Carlton is a four star hotel, old and living on its name (and name was quite trashed a few weeks ago..). Do avoid the Barriere (crappy neighborhood) and the most suited hotel would be, and its still quite far from this forum standarts, le couvent des minimes (my father has been there twice on business and told me that it was, despite its traditionnal and historic feel, really suited for travelers on business).
Lille is a beautiful city and people living in the north of France are among the friendliest !

my wife and i stayed at the carelton a number of times. still the same blue interior on the rooms. it was the most expensive hotel we used. Carlton bathroom and tub (no shower)were bigger than most of the rooms in europe. the restaurants were excellent, but expensive, as the belgians would come down to eat in france.
room was ff equivalent of $32 us. would have been around 1975.
we preferred to stay a bit out of lille in one of the chateaux. rooms were magnificient as were the chateaux, but not much heat.
