"The staff at the hotel was lovely! The room was spacious and clean. The Hotel breakfast buffet was really nice. They had a lot of options to choose from. Locatio is very close to the train station which is very convenient, and it is also a short walk away from the city center. I recommend staying here!"

"It was a one night stay for us breaking a journey by car from north Italy to Calais. There is only parking for maybe two very small cars but we parked in a public car park “La Marie” which was a five minute walk and extremely reasonable at €2 overnight. Our room was ok and the little balcony with its cheery table and chairs was sweet. The public areas (staircase/tiny reception) are tired. Good location off one of the main shopping streets. "
