Pretty sure this is a refurbished old station-type hotel - done well and with thought. Comfortable rooms, good beds and spacious. Rooms each are named! Breakfast good, wifi free and good, protected off-road parking.

A super place that was ideal for a stop over after a LONG drive. Easy to find, safe secure parking at a sensible price. A good meal is available 2 min walk away...lovely to go to a private business instead of a chain. Rooms are clean and fresh. As an animal lover a placid golden Lab and a talkative black... More

Excellent location for those of us who travel deeper into France. Two and a half hours from Dieppe on great roads. I managed to totally stuff up my prior reservations and caused some confusion on arrival, however the staff were great and found us a suitable room, the last available as it was. Location perfect and with clean and comfortable... More

We chose this hotel as an overnight stopover between Calais and Angouleme having read previous reviews. One of the attractions was the secure car park behind the hotel as we had an estate car full of high value items. The hotel is easy to find, being right in front of the gare SNCF but also very quiet. Rooms are clean... More

Excellent hotel in a very good location. Bright modern rooms with good bathrooms. Breakfast area were very nice. The staff were very friendly. Good secure parking. No restaurant in the hotel but the owner recommended a very good one just up the street. Hotel is very pet friendly.

This is a lovely small hotel conveniently situated just off the A28 mid-way between Calais and Bordeaux. Comfy bed in a large clean room (in the superior category) and a warm welcome from the owners. Reasonable room rates and a selection of good restaurants in the pleasant town of Alencon makes this an ideal place to stay on the way... More

I stayed in this hotel for one night with a friend as part of a longer trip. We found the hotel to be attractive (very last stages of some serious renovation I think). Still some lovely evidence of the original Art Deco architecture. The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming, as were their dog and cat who joined us whilst... More

Really lovely hotel with free secure private parking, clean rooms and good buffet breakfast...My brothers and I had booked here whilst in France for our fathers funeral and the owners went overboard to make our stay a good experience, even when we had to cancel some nights to get back to England earlier than expected, it was no trouble...and the...

We needed somewhere to stay half way to Calais from Bordeaux. Alencon with its Michelin one star rating was it. There was a lack of those brown signs you associate with French towns listing their hotels and giving directions. Man haired into the Information Centre before it closed and map in hand we headed to the station which is surrounded... More

As other reviewers have said it's really easy to find, right opposite the station and only a few minutes walk fr omthe centre of the town. Really nice hotel - looks like it has been refurbished recently and both... More
