Very Pleasant Stay

The lovely lady that checked us in was very helpful and welcoming. A continental breakfast was offered to us. The hotel and our room was very clean. It was an older hotel, but well cared for. I would definitely stay here again.

Summer stay

The two things that would make us hesitate to stay here again are the traffic and squeaky floor noises. The blinds shut out some, but not all, traffic noise. The road is the sea front major route through Chetbourg . When you walk across the floor it really .squeeks and comes from your and others rooms. Bad news if others go to bed or get up earlier than you, and if anyone gets up in the night for the loo. Shame because the room size and breakfast was amazing but I need a good and full night's sleep.

Good Booze Cruise Stay

This Hotel is not manned during the night and they don't open until 16.00 hrs. Bathrooms are very small. There are just 5 + 1 parking spaces opposite the Hotel and we were lucky enough to bag one. Receptionist was very pleasant and spoke good English. There is no English TV which is unusual for Cherbourg.

Fine hotel close to town and the marina

We had a perfectly fine standard room in this old hotel which has been rehabbed to modern standards. The shower was small but otherwise the room was very clean and perfectly comfortable. The staff gives you a door cod for after or between hours when there is no one at the desk.

Nice hotel shame about the receptionist

A comfortable stay reasonably priced, downside was a very small shower and the receptionist was a bit pushy looking for a tip, he immediately explained that he'd upgraded us (which he hadn't as I'd booked a sea view online for an extra couple of euros) and heavily hinted at a tip two or three times, he also showed us to our room we we didn't ask for and said we were OK to find it and then hung around in the room waiting for a tip. My tip to him would be "don't be pushy"

Great location

Quirky, clean, though slightly dated feel to the hotel. It's in a brilliantly central location and the staff are very friendly. We would recommend this hotel for a short stay only as we would look for a bit more comfort in the room for a longer stay.

Great for a cheap weekend

Stayed 2 nights with 3 children in a family room. Hotel staff very pleasant, room very tidy. Breakfast was great too. It's not the Ritz but if you want a great inexpensive getaway then this is a great place. I'll go back definitely!

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Poor value

The family room is on the busiest and misused corner of the hotel with translucent curtains. The room has no facilities for a family (e.g. Kettle) and the surrounding amenities are poor. Bizarre experience around their lousy breakfast, don't be fooled, ask of it is part of your rate. They claimed I ordered for my 10mth old child pain a chocolat and coffee. The juice machine was broken and we received a few bits of bread and some prune jam for the kids. The waiter was indignant that i ask to switch prune jam to something the children may eat. Don't make the mistake of picking hotel for ease once off the ferry. Drive, cycle or walk a few minutes and stay somewhere else.

Excellent all rounder!

The hotel was perfectly situated for all we wanted to do and see. It is in a convenient central location within easy walking distance of all the sights and services. The accommodation was clean, bright and spacious and suited our families needs. The staff were very welcoming and helpful and we recommend the hotel very highly. We stayed as foot passengers from the ferry for 2 nights and the hotel was easy to find and had wonderful sea views. 10/10.
