Kyriad - Le Havre Centre

For the upteenth time, I wish Tripadvisor had a ``good hotel in its class'' category. I'm not sure this Kyriad is ``very good'' but ``average'' would be a bit mean. The excellent and healthy breakfast buffet is what pushed me to rate it ``very good.'' My room was comfortable and adequate, nothing special. The staff was friendly. The hotel wouldn't win any design awards but it's not objectionable either. Staff is friendly; everything was clean. I had no complaints. I didn't try the restaurant. About the location: it's not in the ``center,'' which would be a 10-20 minute walk away depending what you mean by center. The hotel is about 5 minute walk behind the train station and a two minute walk to the docks that have been converted into a shopping center. So it's very convenient if arriving by train, and I presume by car. Yes, there is a McDo next door. I didn't notice much noise but it is just off a busy road.

I enjoyed a lot my stay here. People are very nice and friendly. The hotel has an excellent location. Modern installations. The frozen iogurt in the breakfast was delicious. I strongly recommend this hotel.

I stayed at this place for 3 nights. Front desk attendant was really helpful and although there were a few discrepancies with my booking, she handled it without causing a havoc. The staff was friendly. A decent breakfast and most importantly, excellent beds.

We stayed to break our journey from Calais to Finestere but to be honest Le Havre Centre is way too far from the motorway for a convenient overnight so we will probably continue to Honfleur another time. If you need to be in Le Havre Centre the staff here is friendly and the rooms are perfectly adequate for a good nights sleep.

Dont is the one word review I wanted to post for this place but this platform insists on further characters so here goes; We were attracted to this hotel by its listing on one of the most popular online hotel booking apps, the main photo appears to show a bright hotel looking out over the canal/dock area of le Havre, this disproves the "camera never lies" theory, on arrival at the hotel after a long drive we were concerned to find a McDonalds Restaurant located within what looks like the orginal car park area of the hotel, the remaing area of hotel car parking is not secure and between the front of the hotel and the harbour area is a substantially busy dual carriagway and a large concrete flyover to the south elevation of the property, we were concerned at the close proximity of the busy drive-thru restaurant in the car park of the hotel as the front facing rooms look directly on to the restaurant but we neednt have worried as we were allocated a room to the rear, what we had to endure was the railway marshelling yard located at the rear of the building and even with the small window in our wood-chipped room sleeping was almost impossible as the regular vibration and sounds of shunting and braking trains ensured a fairly disturbing wrestless night, the perfect insomniacs bedroom. Dissappointed in everything thus far we thought we would seek refreshment and our evening meal at the hotel restaurant, alarm bells started to ring louder when we were advised that the restaurant was open from 7pm to 10pm but would close earlier if there were not a lot of diners, the selection was from a severely limited menu written on a blackboard in French, whilst appreciating we were in France we had hoped the hotel would anticipate and indeed hope to attract visitors from outwith France (being a ferry destination from the UK an all), after being ignored for a good 15 minutes and being the only diners in at 7.15 we asked the waitress if she would be kind enough to translate the menu options from which we selected a steak with chips and my wife ordered the Turkey option, the steak was akin to a thigh muscle rather than any steak I have ever had in my life, by the time I had removed the fat and sinew from the steak there was little eating on what was left, the turkey was "interesting" completely brown and tepid in tempretaure two bites were taken and the dish returned uneaten, service was appaling and the restaurant and in fact the hotel in its entirity looks like a rejected 1970's travel lodge, the continental breakfast was much better as there was no service to cope with and the cheese, ham and bread were tasty as was the coffee, on returning to our small room after breakfast we decided we could not stay in this place another evening and even though the room fees were paid (a further 64 euro for our meals, insult to injury) we decided to flee to a hotel that was less troubled with traffic and trains and would hopefully provide a friendly level of service and an edible standard of food, none of which appear to be avaiulable at this hotel!!

This hotel is not in the center of Le Havre. It is near the railway station and you can easily walk to the station (10 minutes) and use smooth tramway to the central part or to the main beach. Building is ordinary glass box with good parking for cars near the entrance. You have decent breakfast and dinner. The place is good for individuals and not for groups bigger than 30 people. Some rooms are noisy – especially in ground floor near the drive in restaurant. Ask for a room in upper floor. Good for a night or two.

The staff at reception are very friendly. We had no wifi in the first room, but when we mentioned that at breakfast the next day they immediately offered another room with fine wifi reception. We had one dinner included in the package, but really, I think I'm a better cook myself than the chef in this restaurant! (In case of emergency, there's a McDonalds next to the restaurant) When you go here by car, put the address of the McDonalds in your navigation. The hotel parking is next to the one for the McDonalds and it means you don't have to go all the way around the block and wait for the hotel staff to open the barrier :-)

Nice hotel, good value for money. Very clean room with small but beautiful bathroom. Very comfortable bed and sheets. Great communication with the reception (fluent english). Hotel has poor location, it is close to the highway , so good for oversleep during a round trip, bud bad if you want to be close to the Le Havre center (however, Le Havre is not worth to visit anyway :D). Hotel is located behind the McDonalds restaurant, sharing the same parking lots... It is a bit difficult to find, you should better search for the McD, not the hotel itself :D

It's a decent hotel if you're on a road trip, looking for a fair value option to put your head down. The room is clean and decent sized for the price. It's an avarage, clean hotel. The bathroom was a bit odd-sized and defenitely designed for smaller people. We just used it as a stopover and it served the purpose as it is off the highway. It is located next to a bridge, which totally throws off the satnav. You should plan in some extra time as you will turn around quite some minutes until you find the right entry. There was sufficient parking available, but the barrier at the entrance was a bit of a joke, as it is a share entrance with the local McDonalds which is open have of the night. Also there's footpath from the bridge which directly leads to the Parking.
