Spacious room, very comfortable. Quiet at night. Terrific blackout shutters. Steps from the basilica and the Alliance Française. Just a short stroll on the curving old rues and you’re among the shops and restaurants and squares. A classic port hotel that reminded me of hotels of the 1980s, which is a good thing. 🙂 I’ll stay there again.

This is not a critique so much as something people should know that I didn’t see on booking.com: Not only is the check-in time 4 p.m. but the hotel is closed from midday until then, so don’t arrive early hoping to store luggage there.

Location - awesome. Staff - really lovely, and super helpful. Room was basic, but huge! Breakfast was basic - but very good. Getting to the hotel and parking was challenging due to the roadworks which are going on for some time - but the car park just the other side of the church - outside the town hall - is safe and cheap, and only 2 mins walk away. Loads of food options. Wonderful bakeries a short walk away, and if you've time before your ferry - a walk through the small botanic gardens is lovely. Oh and the cat! There's a really lovely hotel cat!

Parking on arrival at the end of a long journey. Not the hotel's fault - roadworks started the day we arrived and sat nav lost the plot. But once settled, and the lovely hostess had reassured us where we had parked was really the best option - everything settled down for us, and was great.

Hotel is in the centre of the town near all the waterfront resturants. Plenty of free parking nearby and the hotel provide their own secure parking at a small extra cost (book in advance). Staff very friendly (and English speaking). Continental breakfast is freshly prepared and served to table. No traffic noise so a good night's sleep was had. I'd be happy to recommend this place.

The bedroom floor creaked! Ha, Ha.

Large airy room. Spotlessly clean. The hotel room was very comfortable. The hotel would benefit from a lick of paint throughout but it was clean and comfortable. The lady on the reception was extremely helpful. Excellent garage parking attached to the hotel for our motorbike.

Everything was fine.

We chose the Renaissance Hotel for it's location close to the ferry terminal and various restaurants and were very pleased with the comfort and cleanliness of the room and the warmth of the staff. The breakfast was very good and overall the hotel is value for money.

A perfect stay in a very traditional small city centre hotel. The proprietor was very welcoming and helpful, the breakfast was very good, the room and bathroom were spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable. A great find.

Would be quite difficult to find without SatNav

Clean comfortable good location. Lots of shops restaurants and the port nearby. Perfect for the ferry. Breakfast basic but good. Choice of 2 cereals orange and apple juice breads meats cheese. All breads meats and cheese served to table along with yogart tea coffee and hot choclate and bread.

Bit noisy but it is near the port shopping and restaurant center of cherbourg so that's to be expected.

Friendly staff at check-in, decent bathroom, relatively spacious room. Stayed only for one night, so cannot say very much beyond that, but was perfectly fine from my perspective The location is pretty close to the sea (it's a bit of a walk - about 15 minutes - to the train station, which is fine and more so from the ferry terminal, which isn't super convenient, but the area is much nicer than what I saw at the ferry terminal and it's still manageable on foot - maybe 30 minutes)

Comfortable hotel, very nicely decorated and good breakfast for 8 euros. Lady checking in was fast efficient and helpful and spoke good English

Roadworks in front road of hotel so found it hard to locate with satnav as many roads closed Eventually parked car in church st car park (free over night) and walked there with the help of a French lady

I arrived late (11pm) and staff sent me the front door code and left the room key for me in a box. Didnt have to check in and pay until following morning. Very convenient. Excellent central location. Close to ferry and restaurants. Very short walk to the train station. Would stay again!
