Cheap hotel for an overnight stay. Needs a bit of modernisation ironically given the name! Lots of mould in the bathroom. Wouldn't want to stay again.

Lovely overnight stay

Lovely overnight stay. Small room and en-suite but fine for one night. Good buffet breakfast had everything we needed. Good location for bars, shops and restaurants but not noisy. We didn’t have a car, but the public car park was 5 minutes away. We will stay there again.

Not happy, the hotel states free parking, there is

Hotel advertises free parking But when you get there you discover its a car park that is down the road and around a corner, that is only free after a certain time and if you get there after this time, you have very little hope if finding any parking.

The room had been renovated beautifully. Fully rewired with usb charging points and a plethora of lighting options. The bed was very comfortable with a bolster, two pillows and a decorative cushion per person, the most pillows we've ever encountered in France! Despite Cherbourg undergoing significant utility and road revamping, it made little impact in the hotel. Free parking was easily available within a few minutes walk 😀

Quiet hotel in Cherbourg town centre

Pleasent little hotel in a back street in Cherbourg town centre. The hotel is in a charming old building and my room overlooked a quiet courtyard out the back. Service was great and the room was clean and comfortable... but quite small. Absolutely fine for a single person for 1 night. But might be a bit cramped if you are sharing or staying a bit longer. I imagine they have bigger rooms available too though. I would happily stay here again.
