Easy to find in a small village on the outskirts of Bethune. We stayed here on our 1st and last nights our a recent trip. There is plenty of free car parking within the immaculate grounds. It s worth taking the time to have a little wander in the gardens. The rooms are very large, comfortable and well appointed. There are 3 restaurants to choose from on site.
We had been here at least twice before and had no problems. This time sadly it was very disappointing. On arrival the window was open in the room so of course being January it was very cold. We closed the window and stayed in bed until we could go out to eat. On return, the room was no warmer, and nothing we did would make the heating come on. There was an electric heater in the room and at first it did not seem to work either - we discovered in the morning, the thermostat had been turned to min. not max. We had tried phoning reception, she said something about adjusting from their end but I guess that was just to get us to leave her alone. In addition to the lack of heating the window even when closed, had cold air coming in around it (not very green!). No wonder the noise of kids revving motorbikes outside seemed so loud when we were trying to have an early night. I could also feel the draught in bed and had to sleep with clothing wrapped around my head. At breakfast when we went around 7.30 there were no spoons - not even teaspoons - and my husband was trying to eat stewed apple and yoghurt with a fork. Just as we were leaving they were putting them out. Please management, fix the window and heating in room 106! Even for an Ibis Budget this wouldn't have been good at all.
Stayed for one night on our way further south having wanted to avoid an overnight in Calais due to security concerns. It appears to be relatively new and this is reflected in the standard of the family room we booked. Though the room was fairly basic, everything was very modern and clean. The bathroom area was separate to the toilet and, rather strangely, privacy was maintained by a curtain rather than a door. However it worked without problems. There is a small bar but this seemed to close early and there was no sign of the vending machines you often get in French budget hotels. Breakfast was basic though reasonably priced and sufficient for our needs. Whilst there is no facility for evening dining, discounts were available at a number of local restaurants just ten minutes walk or five minutes by car. Would have no hesitation in using again.
Arrived from coming across on ferry so arrived after 9pm but checkin was very straight forward. Good breakfast and exceptional value for money. Perfect for one night stay
Our second stay here. So convenient to stop here after getting the Channel Tunnel, on our way to Disney. Far cheaper than staying in Dover. Basic, but clean and a warm welcome. So nice to have a meal in the restaurant and to get ready for the next day. Nice touch from the staff to bring us some snacks as we played a board game in the restaurant as we had some pre-dinner drinks. We’ll be back soon.
Excellent & spacious room! Stayed as a family of 4 & having the sofa bed and an extra bed was so nice to let the children spread out. Warm welcome, friendly staff & bar, very clean, modern & bright, very clean. Free parking nearby or private parking on site for €10! Such a great spot for arriving after a late channel crossing from the UK before driving onwards into France or at the end of a trip before an early crossing to get back home. Just 50 minutes to Le Shuttle. Will definitely stay again when visiting France or driving into Europe.
