We have stayed here on several occasions and really enjoy it. The hosts are very welcoming and the rooms each have an identity which makes it more interesting than many chain-style hotels. Breakfast is very good with care paid to not creating lots of waste. There is parking nearby and it is a short walk into Calais town which has good restaurants. The Channell remains one of all time favourites but this stay we also enjoyed some of the best quality pizza at the Napoli. Calais works rerally hard to welcome visitors and the Opal Coast is stunning. We will be back!

Nothing

This is a family house of 19thC antiquity with much of the original decor and atmosphere - it feels of Northern France - a time capsule - nothing modern here but the plumbing. I think it has only a four bedrooms of which mine was spacious and had an on-suite bathroom and a separate toilet. My room was "Lady Hamilton" after Nelson's mistress who lived and died in misery in Calais - so I found out from coming here. I learned something new and that's what travelling is about. The host was charming as were his family. Breakfast was continental in that there was no burnt bacon or sausages but a wide range of cereals, breads, petits pains, juices, bref it was a complete european breakfast. It's close to the centre of Calais and public parking, free overnight is very close by if not in front.

It’s a small but interesting family run property. We loved the different rooms with their interesting decor. Our room had a separate seating area, shower and toilet. Our children were in a separate twin room dedicated to Bleriot. They liked the room and slept well. Our hosts were very friendly. Drinks were available and the breakfast was excellent.

In our room the bed was a standard double and was higher in the middle than the edge - so we both felt we were going to fall out of bed. Would be fine for one person but did mean we had a poor nights sleep.

We were warmly welcomed by our host and provided with guidance for our stay as well as choices for our al la Carte continental break. Parking was available directly outside the house and was free overnight from 6 pm, or if preferred a secure parking space could be arranged for a small fee, as long as you were driving a small to medium car. The house is quite old, it was charmingly and eccentrically decorated each bedroom having a theme, ours being aviation. The stairs were beautiful polished wood in a wonderful sweeping style to the bedroom floor. Although a bit early in the year we were able to sit out in the courtyard garden and enjoy a glass of wine. We had a very relaxing stay made all the better by charming hosts

Rather solid pillow but that’s more about my preferences.

The friendly owners were incredibly welcoming. Our room as tastefully decorated and really interesting. We enjoyed the historic theme of the room especially in the local context. The owners went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible given we were with a 2 year old. The cot was set up with a comfy duvet. That our daughter loved. Our departure meant that we would miss breakfast, so a prepared breakfast was arranged the night before. It was lovely. We were able to have this on the ferry on the way home. All in all, we would love to go back. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting Calais.

That we couldn’t take it with us….

The hotel was easy to locate, with on the street parking. The room was clean, comfy, and reasonably quiet, apart from the 5.30am train rattling past nearby. The host was polite and friendly.

The Breakfast basic, the host requested the guest should fill out a breakfast menu the previous evening. The home-made ginger cake was very heavy and under cooked, the slices of bread were thin and small, the hard boiled egg was fridge cold. There was a selection of jams placed on the table. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room...but only 1 tea bag and 1 coffee sachet provided, it would have been nice to have had and extra tea bag!!

The owners were very nice and very helpful, they kept in touch and gave us very useful info about the place and the town before check in. We loved the breakfast, the familial atmosphere of the place, and how well-kept it is, despite being an historical building. We also loved the history behind every room connected to the history of Calais. Our dog was very welcome to stay with us even in the breakfast room, which is something that cannot be taken from granted and we really appreciated. Perfect for a one night stay!

We ordered breakfast to suit us the night before. Breakfast was exceptional: we had freshly pressed orange juice, baguette and croissant with delicious jam, cheese or ham, followed by homemade yogurt. There was free street parking after 6pm. The house is full of interesting historical curiosities, put together lovingly by Nathalie. We had an afternoon to see Calais: the impressive Hotel de Ville, beach, and to watch the ferries. Our stay was for one night, coming home to UK. Leaving at 8am, we had a short, easy drive to Le Shuttle.

The location is fantastic as it is in the heart of Calais but not to the extent that one is disturbed at night. The food is also excellent as Laurent is a superb chef. Nathalie is a great hostess and we really enjoyed the various animals they have. Their two daughters were a joy to engage with. Overall I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We were in Calais for an inaugural cycling event and if it is to be held again next year, we know where we will be staying.

There was nothing that we did not like!

What an absolute gem! Such attention to detail in every aspect of our stay. A warm welcome from Laurent who showed us to our room. Such a cosy, comfortable, clean room; it is evident a great deal of thought has gone into ensuring total comfort and th needs of guest are met....or indeed exceeded! And breakfast the next day was a real treat...again, so much attention to detail, and thought. Everything was just perfect. Thank you so much. We would highly recommend and hope to be back on a future visit to Calais.

Could not find any fault - just perfect!
