Hotelf1 Calais Coquelles

we stayed one night having arrived by ferry the hotel is well located just of the autoroute the welcome was warm with helpful staff the hotel is clean – the room was very small however en suite breakfast is adequate however neither cornflakes nor croissants are available – generally as you would expect at the price on site parking is available we ate at the Au Calais restaurant open till 10 00 ( located as part of Auchan hypermarket ) 5 minutes walk – an excellent meal at a reasonable price would consider using again

Compared to other 'one-night-stay motels' we've stayed at in France, this one is by far the worst. in all these places the rooms are compact, but this took that idea to a whole new level. it was difficult to walk round the bed and impossible to bend down in the en suite shower without having both the shower door and the door into the bedroom open. The bed was uncomfortable and in the shower the only soap was in the shower cubicle, meaning you had to reach in there when washing your hands. The breakfast was scanty to say the least and there were nowhere near as many tables and chairs as there were people staying there on the morning of our departure. Despite having paid for two breakfasts, we gave up and left without having anything to eat or drink. It was clean, at least but, if you include breakfast, scarcely cheaper than nearby alternatives. We will certainly not stay there again on our next trip to France.

I'd say you get what you pay for, but we stayed in a Premiere Inn in Dover on the way out for the same price, and the differences were vast. The beds were clean, but the whole hotel had a very overwhelming, unpleasant smell and the sink smelt every time the tap was run, giving the impression that the hotel was unclean. Staff were helpful. Suffice to say, we wouldn't stay again.

Very basic but clean, warm and comfortable. Hadn't clocked that the loo and shower are not ensuite

Firstly I let the hotel know about the delay in getting to hotel, after 9pm, they sent a code to me and my room number. A guest at the hotel helped me get in, code wasn't being accepted, this may have been my fault, then he proceeds to stalk me and knock on my door "to talk" I explained I was driving to Spain and need my sleep but he persisted on knocking on the door, this went on til well after 3am!!!!! I certainly did not feel safe after that. Lone females should not stay here

The gentleman at the reception was so friendly and helpful. However, I had no idea about the hotel's concept that No bath or toilet in the rooms, even No towel, even No soap in the shared toilets! The reception closes at night and I was terrified to go out for the WC till the morning as a group of people were chatting and passing from time to time in the night! Also the hotel is not 10 minutes from the ferry or terminal as advertised, so I took a taxi. The concept is not for me, never again.
