Gare Hotels, Calais

"A very pleasant stay. Old world French charm with friendly staff. The nights were a little warm without air conditioning, but the price was very fair being so close to downtown."

"Always nice to stay here this was our 4th stay."

"I have stayed in this Hotel many times now, with my wife, my children and alone - it is the first place past the tunnel and does not look appealing from the outside. In fact it looks like something from the 1970s - but do not let that put you off - The staff, the flexibility make up for the look. The staff are what makes it- want a drink at 1am, no problem, want a pizza for the kids, no problem - want to practice some French- they will speak French even though their English is probably better than your own- -- and the French CRS Police use is it for their meetings and training sessions - it is probably the safest place in Europe- these guys are smart, polite and always around doing whatever it is they do - and I have never felt as safe in a hotel. These guys are fit, armed and look like they mean business. And they are always in this hotel. They do not interact, other than a friendly hello, but you feel very safe. I love this hotel - it may not look pretty, but the staff are excellent and the food, while not fancy is very good value for money. - I have paid a lot more in the UK and France and got a lot less, _ I will stay here again,"

"This property was perfect for my needs. I had come off a ferry at Dunkerque after midnight and didn’t want to be driving during the night. The hotel is only five minutes away. It was clean and quiet and breakfast was available in the morning. "

"Very nice hotel "

"Due to our vehicle breaking down we needed a place to stay while the vehicle was fixed. From the moment we arrived the staff couldn't have been more helpful, helping us source a garage, making us feel comfortable and welcome the whole time. We found that local buses are free, so we still had opportunities to explore the area, though we loved the walking too. We would highly recommend this hotel. "

"Nice clean property which is modern and well equipped. "

"Great location for the shuttle. Easy check and check - huge Auchan almost next door. Decent value for money."

"As usual the holiday inn calais served us well. It may just be the area as it was quite loud with traffic. We always request a sea view room so again, we should be used to the noise by now!"
