Everything went according to plan the room was spacious very clean. Staff appear to be friendly. The room was somewhat noisy as it was on the main road but we managed to get a good night sleep. Double glazing didn’t seem to block the noise as much as I thought I might.

Great location especially for the beach. Fantastic restaurant, best food in town I'd say. Breakfast was expensive for a continental buffet. Unfortunately there were no foreign TV channels and the air conditioning was noisy, apart from that a very pleasant stay.

Hotel was convenient and clean. Staff could not have been more helpful. Very convenient for return trip from Calais to Folkestone. Car parking was booked in advance and very secure. Area is ok but not the best . We stayed on a Monday and most eateries were closed. In summary I would stay there again but as a convenient stop off for Le Shuttle. Staff were great!

The room was spacious enough, comfortable and equipped with a kettle and mini-bar fridge. Decor is smart, clean bourgeois. Service at the bar, restaurant and breakfast room was excellent, as was the food in the restaurant. Though quite expensive, it was a memorable evening meal and we were very glad to have had the chance to eat there - worth the price!

Charm

This is a rather old fashioned hotel but not without charm or character. The superior room was fine but the shower was designed to flow away and not into the bathroom, which it did not which meant tiled floor was very slippy. The shower robes were very useful on route to jacuzzi and back. The jacuzzi was a lovely free extra. But one thing was very worrying on our last day up and ready to shower and depart the fire alarm went off. This was probably set of by a customer smoking in their room but the staff response was shockingly bad and we, and one French woman, appeared to be the only guests to have evacuated. She used the lift! We came in from outside to be told nonchalantly that it was a false alarm. This was really very worrying if it had been a real fire.

Monsieur sympathique a l’accueil, décoration chambre vieillotte. La Clim était fonctionnelle. Petite salle de bain malgré une chambre supérieure. Parking (box fermé) payant et parking public à côté (bord de plage) complet la journée.
