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.

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 hotel was in excellent order. The lounge wasn’t welcoming, nor were the receptionists, apart from one particular gentleman. The breakfast wasn’t v good. The lift only went up one flight after which we had to struggle up two flights of stairs carrying a heavy suitcase… a problem for the elderly. It took three calls to have a faulty light bulb fixed.

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.

The hotel itself is great, the room comfortable and the parking is extremely useful and secure. However, it's some way from the centre and, at least on a Tuesday, the hotel's restaurant is really the only place within sensible night-time walking distance. The restaurant is fine, but not great, and is significantly overpriced for what it is. I don't object to 70Euros a head, but I do expect the food and wine to be much better for that price.

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!

Poor experience

Long wait at checkin and the restaurant is not value for money, in fact for what it is, it could only be described as mediocre... example would be the cheese board, 3 1/2 euros extra than dessert (7 in total) for 3 small cheeses of which nothing special could be said of them... all in all a poor experience

The hotel has good sea views, the staff were very helpful.

I did not like the price of the breakfast. 17 Euros for a mediocre buffet breakfast is exorbitant.
Likewise the hotel bar is prohibitively expensive, which is probably why it was always empty.

Good, but not great on this occasion

Good location on the beach, directly opposite Europe's largest aquarium, but a good 15 minute walk form the town centre in a largely residential area. Tight but secure parking for an extra 35 euros (free on street). Couldn't fault the generous and comfortable room, and great help from the concierge on check-in also. Had made a prior reservation at the restaurant, from a previous experience, hence choosing this hotel to stay at. Went for the degustation menu and the kitchen and chef knocked themselves out delivering superb food, but after initially attentive waiting staff, they simply all disappeared, leaving us and the all the other tables in the main restaurant waiting for nearly an hour, so having not even been asked for coffee or a digestif left sadly disappointed having previously visited and always having experienced exceptional service and food. Allowance made as it was Bastille Day the day before, still good but not great this time.

Bon hôtel avec un bon rapport qualité / prix, bien situé en face de la plage et du superbe aquarium, un peu loin du centre-ville par contre. Le personnel est accueillant et serviable, j’ai apprécié le parking fermé derrière l’hôtel. La chambre bien chauffée pour l’hiver a tout ce qu’il faut, notamment une baignoire, il lui manque juste une télévision plus grande et moderne avec internet et les applications comme Netflix, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime,… Cependant l’hôtel mériterait d’être rénové, au minimum les moquettes vraiment vieillissantes. Le sauna, le hammam et la piscine intérieure sont un vrai plus, même si le sol est trop glissant avec toute l’eau, il faudrait absolument installer des tapis en caoutchouc pour circuler sans glisser, c’est très dangereux, j’ai vu des personnes tomber et qui auraient pu se faire très mal. Il y a plusieurs restaurants a proximité ce qui est pratique lorsque le restaurant de l’hôtel ferme fin décembre / début janvier. Comme dans presque tous les hôtels aujourd’hui, les petits déjeuners sont beaucoup trop chers (le prix d’un restaurant !) heureusement on peut ne pas les prendre. En conclusion, c’est un hôtel que je conseillerais pour rester une ou deux nuits.
