We stayed with our 3 children in the Mel Smith family room. Short 45 minute drive from the tunnel so great for a short break to experience a traditional french town. Wonderful quirky hotel filled with charming brocante. A fun experience for us and the children, which we will never forget. Lovely drink at the bar before bed to soak... More

Our second visit to this unusual hotel. The decoration of the public rooms is hard to take in, there is so much to see. Would not like to be a cleaner employed there. It is a time warp of style and taste. The black and white lino on the stairs takes ones breath away as do some of the colour... More

Yes, it really is that bad. Having checked in and given attitude for having the audacity to have a delivery sent to us C/O the hotel we were shown our rooms. By the way this attitude permeated before we even arrived at the hotel, when we respectfully asked whether ‘it would be ok if’. This coupled with the fact that... More

Our one night stay was a 'holiday bonus' we were not expecting. Very unusual and fun ambience. Great welcome by the owners Patrick and Janie, good food and a... More

My wife and I called in to Montreuil sur mer on the last day of our trip to France and thought the walled town a gem, with plenty of hotels and restaurants to choose from and wonderful views from the ramparts. Whilst wandering around we came across the Hotel de France and looked into the courtyard which was a charm... More

This hotel has had a glorious past and a history to be proud of in the 18th and 19th Centuries but the accommadation appears to have been untouched since the 1960's at best. Expectations have moved forward, The Hotel de France has not. We had taken my daughter to buy some fizz from The Wine Society nearby for her 40th... More

I spent the weekend with friends at Hotel de France in the beautiful fortified bastide of Montreuil sur Mer. Janie and Patrick, our hosts, were fabulous and keen to ensure that we had a great time. I had the bedroom where Victor Hugo wrote Les Miserables complete with sloping floors. The service was great and I can thoroughly recommend the... More

Bouyant and friendly service from owners and staff. The Hotel de France is a remarkable find, and was the perfect last stop on a two week camping tour around france...memorable and fun. Will make...
