Facilities ok. Good bed. Really needs air con on a hot night. No fans either. Access was automated but worked ok. Room was over hotel restaurant so we heard the fan and dishes clanging until it closed. Easy street parking nearby and short walk to town and 15min walk to Dunkirk war museum.

We Would Book Again.

Excellent location. The room was very comfortable, and the hotel was in good order. The automated check in worked better than expected. Pull the door dont push it as we did. We didnt have breakfast, but the restaurant looked good.

The hotel was really nice. The bed was very comfortable and the room was very clean. The automated check in was a little weird but worked easily; however, not having a desk attendant is problematic if there are issues. We couldn't get our heat or a/c to work, so it was a bit warm in the hotel. It was pretty convenient to walk to things. Overall it was nice, but a little different from a traditional hotel or airbnb.

We were very shocked by this property. I was not expecting much and it was one of the best properties that we have stayed in. We were lucky we came in the morning and they were serving breakfast as I would not have been able to figure out check in otherwise. And the key replacement system did not work for us. But because we came in the morning we were lucky and had people check us in. But back to the main point - our room was wonderful and isnt that what you want

No reception staff but a nice room

Our first impression of this hotel was unfortunately not a good one. We arrived at 4:00. The restaurant was closed and there was an automated system to get our room key. It asked for my last name but would not work on my repeated attempts. I did not have a phone to call anyone. Luckily another new guest arrived and called the hotel co tact for us. They had entered the wrong name and that is why it would not work. We missed going to the museum as we wasted time trying to sort this all out. The room however was very nice, clean and had a nice shower. It was also quiet. There was no room to store our bikes so we had to carry them up the stairs to our room. Would we stay again? Probably not. It’s not a cycle friendly hotel and having no reception does not work well for us.

The hotel was in a great location on the quai. The room was very well-appointed and spacious. The only downside was there was no one to help us in person; check-in was completely automated. There was no indication who to speak to if you needed anything (like toilet paper :)

Great location, very comfortable bed, loved the enclosed shower. Quiet room (courtyard view), though not much breeze and so the room was quite warm during the day since there was no A/C; opting for a harbor view would like invite a better breeze. Cleanliness could have been improved - the floors had not been swept, as was evident by the dirty floors, which included lots of long hair...

Our two nights stay was very pleasant. Excellent location. The room was superb, very clean and very well provided with more items that you could think of! Breakfast was in our view overpriced. We would have liked to be offered a second cup of tea/coffee. Our main issue is that it is an hotel without staff. Upon arrival we could not get access to inside the hotel then to our room (similarly to another gentleman who had arrived a few minutes before us) due to a software problem. The gentleman had already called for help which arrived within a couple of minutes and all was resolved extremely swiftly. However it does make you think why would a hotel not have a reception, when they also run a well thought off restaurant with an excellent menu on the same premises.
