"Fine for a one-night stopover"
OK, here's the thing: Calais is a bit of a dump and most people are only there for ongoing sea or Eurotunnel connections. And this hotel is a 3 star so it's definitely not the Four Seasons. That being said though, the rooms are comfortable if a bit small, the staff exceedingly pleasant and helpful and the food at the restaurant really not bad. So, for […] a one night stop-over it's fine. It's in an odd location though, pretty much in the docks. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Beware they charge for breakfast!"
It was not clear that the breakfast was not included in the room rate and that we would be charged. In the US breakfast is provided by the hotel as part of the room. We were surprised at check out to have an additional 15 Euro per person charge. This adds up with a family of 4.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Calais Holiday Inn"
Great place to stay with excellent views of the harbor. Breakfast was large with lots to choose from. Recommended by this picky family!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Seaside location"
The hotel was very pleasant and right on the beach. When the beach is busy, it is a cheery and active area. It gets very quiet in the mornings. The city sights, such as the Hotel de Ville and the WWII museum were a manageable walk. If you like seafood or beach snacks, there are several options in the area, but otherwise the food is limited. The staff […] were helpful in either English or French. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Friendly Staff"
Great Staff who were very kind to the children. Room spotlessly clean but bathrooms getting dated. Ceiling must be very thin because we could clearly hear people using the toilet! Beds very comfortable with extra really nice pillows and blankets. Breakfast was fine and kids eat breakfast free. Would return as staff were very kind and friendly family […] orientated.

"looks can be deceiving"
We first drove up and from the exterior of the hotel, we thought " oh no!". But on entering the hotel we were greated wonderfully in lovely surroundings. Great for a small family especially with childrens meal dealGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient and value for money"
Whilst the rooms/bathrooms are in need of refurbishment, the hotel is well located, and it was generally quite clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"geat over night trip"
starting to show its age, but well maintained with an excellant location for the ferry. duvets were too smallGenuine Expedia guest review
"Okay hotel for Tunnel journey"
Hotel is okay for the price. It has a good location for the Channel Tunnel.Bar prices are extortinate @ 8Euro's for a beer.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good location near Tunnel, but average hotel."
Hotel is in a good location but is generally a very average hotel. Rooms are okay but bathrooms need attention. Bar price in hotel are extortionate with a large beer costing €8.10.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"great hotel for the rest before the more driving!"
Very helpful staff from the first moment ... room had a view of the water, which was a plus. We decided not to eat at the hotel and the staff suggested a great brasserie in the area .. kids enjoyed their stay, which made ours enjoyable too!! We will stay there again!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good clean hotle very close to port"
Great hotel with very nice tasty breakfast very close to ferry port. Nothing too fancy but we were happy with the room, internet and service!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"EXTREMELY GOOD FOR TRAVELLERS"
THE ROOM WAS CLEAN, COMFORTABLE AND OFFERED ALL REQUIRED AMENITIES. THE STAFF WERE FRIENDLY AND HELPFULGenuine Expedia guest review

Will definitely go back and spend more time in Calais. Spacious family room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
it was really nice, would stay again, the beds were so comfortable and clean, the staff very helpful. the view lovely. couldnt fault it. never tried food but would next time.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"CLEAN BUT BASIC"
We stayed overnight have stayed in Holiday Inns before and this was on the basic end of the scale Dont get me wrong there was nothing wrong with it but it was just a bit tired looking However it did have a happy hour 2 4 1 drinks between 5 and 7 and there where some very nice and inexpensive restaurants within walking distance so all in all a nice time […] was had Thanks Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice little hotel for a short stay"
A very warm welcome when we arrived. We were over 3 hours early but they allowed us to check in and they had a room for us ready and waiting. We were able to join their holiday Inn club and were given a complimentary bottle of wine whcih was greatly received! The rooms were basic but clean and well thought out. Linen was crisp and clean and the bed […] was very comfy. Lots of hanging space for clothes for those staying a while but not many toiletries available ( just a bar of soap if i remember right). They also could have done with a few more towels in the bathroom, the ones they had were quite small and we only had 2 between us and a couple of hand towels. The staff were very friendly and helpful and as between myself and my husband we could not speak a word of french, they were all very fluent in English ( shame on us). They told us where all the local shops and amenities were and all the information that we needed to know about the hotel and the sourrounding area. Only negative was that the walls were a little thin and you could hear people coming in and out of rooms but luckily for us the hotel was not very busy when we stayed. Overall a pleasant stay at this hotel in Calais Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Exactly what you would expect"
Good hotel. Helpful staff, clean efficient. Exactly what you would expect from Holiday InnGenuine Expedia guest review
"Convenient location, but in need of updating"
The hotel appeared a little outdated. The staff were helpful and appeared to be fluent English speakers. The car parking arrangements were quite complex as the hotel had several small car parks scattered around the neighbouring street. The front door step was difficult to access with luggage. There was only one trolley in the foyer for transporting […] luggage around. The breakfast was unappetising and the hot food was not particularly warm. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Convenient."
Convenient for beach, town, ferries and tunnel. Overall very good but staff could be a bit more friendly without too much effort.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Greate if you are getting an eairly farrie"
This hotel is OK, but is a greate place to stop over before catching an early ferry the next morning.Genuine Expedia guest review
"close to very attractive town centre"
This was just an overnight stop before travelling home but Calais is a real jewel that many people probably don't see, as they travel through. A good quality hotel that did the job we wanted.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"More than just a stop over"
Our only disappointment was that having stayed on the wrong side of Calais previously, we had no idea how lovely this part of Calais is, an we should have stayed 2 nights! The hotel is located a short walk from the beach, there was a fun fair near the hotel too much to the delight of my 3 year old. The meals were good, although breakfast is typically […] French with lots of packet foods and not so much fresh prepared and a little pricey at 15 euros per person although kids eat free. I would completely recommend this hotel, especially for families needing somewhere before getting the ferry, but make sure you leave some time to take in the sights!

"Convenient for euro tunnel"
Clean, comfortable room. Have had better breakfasts, coffee was luke warm otherwise no problems.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
nice stay, was comfortableGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"CLOSE TO FERRY PORT"
They tried to put us in a really run down room until I refused to stay in that room then they did upgrade us to a very nice room, but I would say that was still not worth the money we were charged for the night.The area is very run down and very dirty, everywhere you walk is covered in dog poo and dog ends and down and out homeless people. Never ag […] ain. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Expensive but ok"
The hotel is clean and has a modern feel on the inside. The staff were helpful. I did feel it was quite expensive for a fairly basic hotel, albeit a well presented one.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Review of Holiday Inn, Calais"
The room was very comfortable and the reception staff were very efficient and helpful and spoke excellent English, which was a help as we aren't fluent in French. The meal in the restaurant was overpriced and we had to wait 3/4 of an hour for it. A volleyball? team were staying at the hotel and they came into the restaurant just as we had ordered. […] Their buffet was laid out and they had practically eaten it before our meal arrived. The portions we were given were not in line with the price we paid for the meal. I would recommend the Holiday Inn, Calais but I think the restaurant staff could improve their service. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Highly recommended"
A really good hotel. Modern and very clean. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Bike friendly and secure parking was only €12. Twin rooms with double beds was a bonus. Ideally located as within close proximity of the ferry terminal, although it's a bit deceptive when you see it on a map. Extra bonus points for an excellent breakfast choice!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Dont choose Mystery Hotel if you want Coquelles"
Ok for a short stop over at Calais. Close to ferry port, beach, local restaurants. Free on street parking across the road from the hotel. Difficult to find if using hotel directions.Genuine Expedia guest review
"nice for a short stay"
nice hotel - good location - family friendly - decent priceGenuine Expedia guest review
"holiday in Calais"
Good friendly stop on way to holiday if you want to go through the tunnel than rest. My car broke down on route. Arrived a day late and the hotel moved my booking to the next day Free of charge when they were perfectly entitled to say no. How nice is that.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good standard hotel"
The Holiday Inn Calais is everything you would expect from a hotel that is part of an American chain. The room was pleasant and clean and with friendly English speaking staff. We parked (for free) on the road outside but it might be worth asking on booking for one of the secured parking spaces.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Holiday Inn Calais"
Perfect stop=over Hotel. Located close to m/ways and Tunnel. Despite delay and late arrival (0230 hrs) staff received us well. Family room with 2 beds was ideal. Didn't stay for b/fast. Parking on road outside seemed okay and was used by lots of other travellers.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great stop over"
Great family room with 2 double beds, comfortable and very nice breakfast. Thank you.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good place to stay"
The hotel didnt look like an ordinary Holiday Inn, it was quite an old building. However inside it was fine and the reception staff were very helpful. The room was ok, the bed warm and comfortable and the bathroom a bit tired looking but functional, no complaints. The hotel was within easy walking distance of shops restaurants and bars. We left the […] car parked in the road outside and were able to walk to the places in Calais we wanted to visit. It was pleasant to have a room overlooking the harbour. The hotel cannot be described as beachfront as it overlooks the port - and its near the ferry terminal. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great stay"
Really enjoyed the experience everything was great except for the cheese selection at 7.95 euro three small pieces of cheese and a lettuce leaf was laughable,but ut did not spoil my stay and would go againGenuine Expedia guest review
"holiday inn calais"
Very good This hotel is in Calais center Very secure parking when your car is so vunerable on passing through Northern FranceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Decent mid-range hotel with exceptional service"
This is a decent mid-range hotel, much like any other Holiday Inn or similar. But the staff were exceptional - friendly, helpful, professional, and attentive. Very highly recommendedGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"a welcome relief"
After days of camping in the rain, followed by payingexcessive euros the night before for a very mediocre hotel in Normandy, we were extremely impressed with this very comfortable, spacious and clean family room. The service was friendly and excellent, parking for our car and trailer secure, and the location adjacent to the ferry port on one side, with […] lots of restaurants on the other, just perfect. This was the best nights sleep we had had in a while and was excellent value for money. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
The staff was welcoming. It is in a good position for an overnight stay before travelling to the UK, easy to find and situated on the sea front!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient location, comfortable bed BUT..."
...this hotel is pretty tired, not up to the standard of some other Holiday Inns we've stayed in. If you just need somewhere to sleep before catching a ferry/tunnel, it is fine. Bed comfortable and pretty room clean, but you wouldn't want to stay for a nice break. Also breakfast expensive for what it is, better to go to one of the local cafes or pa […] tisseries.

Excellent for an overnight stay. Very comfortable but fairly expensive. Good breakfast and helpful staff but the plumbing could be better.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice for a short stay"
Stayed here about 8 yrs ago, not a lot changed. Nice to stay for a stopover. One downside was the fact that the fire alarm went off at 6.15am, false alarm however there was no explanation or apology and the evacuation was all a bit of a shambles, with no organisation or anyone taking charge from the hotel, thank goodness it wasn't a real fire! This […] unfortunately put a bit of a cloud over our last day as no chance of getting back to sleep after. Breakfast was nice though! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Lovely hotel, friendly staff, spacious rooms, convenient location for walking into town, would definietely use again. Recommended by Norfolk familyGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"TRES BON HOTEL"
Très bon acceuil et service, propreté impecable. Idéalement situé par rapport aux ferries pour l'angleterre, ce qui engendre une petite gène au niveau sonore due à ces mêmes ferries.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Week-end à Calais"
Hôtels très agréable avec vu sur le port et surtout de la place pour garer la voiture. Un ronronnement m'a dérangé une partie de la nuit mais j'ai été le seul à l’entendre... Très bel hôtel avec un bon petit déjeuné. Je recommande pour une famille avec deux enfants.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
