I spent a night at the Logis Hotel Cottage on 23 April 2024 before my Eurotunnel journey from Calais to Folkestone. After a long and tiring drive on several autoroutes from Bordeaux in the Southwest of France, I received a warm welcome from Madame Mandy Caudrillier, the receptionist on duty, who quickly checked me into my room, which was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Customer service was also very good in the bar and restaurant where I enjoyed one of the three daily items on the Table d'Hote menu - a delicious casserole along with some very nice red wine. For the price that I paid, and especially the hotel's close location to the Eurotunnel check-in, I was more than satisfied with the Logis Hotel Cottage.

Dans une jolie maison, une chambre décorée avec soin, avec une mention pour la salle de bains. Bon accueil, la propriétaire fournit plein d'informations sur la ville et les environs. Très bon petit déjeuner servi autour d'une grande table. Facile de trouver une place de parking dans les rues avoisinantes, tout du moins en week-end.

What I liked: Good location: you can walk out, one minute and you're right near the intersection of the two main streets of Calais. You can walk to the main area of restaurants in about 8-10 minutes and see quite a bit along the way. The room was spacious. and clean and the front desk man was not only helpful but cheerful too. Also there is a bar at the hotel and breakfast area. I didn't have breakfast this time, but would probably do so next time. The aspects of the hotel I didn't like so much was the fact that the decor of the room is very bland. This probably doesn't matter much if you are just here for a night. Also with one window in the room (in the one I stayed in) there wasn't quite enough light. Depends on your point of view but at 72-75 euros per night I don't call this a 'budget' hotel as some others do. It's more of a mid-range. To me 'budget' means something more like the F1 or the Premiere Classe. A few other tips: Regarding the bar, if you want a 'flat white' or similar, don't make the mistake of ordering 'cafe au lait' as in Calais this actually means just an americano-style long cafe with some UHT milk on the side. What you want is a cafe creme. When I explained what I wanted, the barman/front desk man happily made an espresso coffe with steamed milk. Just around the corner to the left is Au Calice where you can sit outside with a coffee and watch the world go by. Which is always a good thing to do when you're in France. There is also a new 'cool' cafe called the Cafetoria right next to it.

We were travelling back to London from the Olympics and needed to stay in Calais to get Le Shuttle early the next day. We were worried about the lack of parking, and had put a note in the booking asking for a parking space. When we arrived we were told it was full, but when I gave my name they said that one of the spaces had been reserved for us (a €15 charge) - great :-). The room itself (216) was wonderful - it was on two levels with two single beds upstairs and a double bed / bathroom downstairs. Lots of windows and air conditioning too! Breakfast started at 6.00, which was great as we needed to leave at 6.30. A wonderful spread with an orange juice squeezing machine, a range of cheeses, pastries, breads, cereals, eggs to boil - a really good range. If our travel plans brought us to Calais again I'd book this hotel in a heartbeat.

We stayed one night after a late ferry crossing. Close to the port so it was very convenient as only a short drive. Clean and comfortable, just what we needed and a fair price. We had a nice beer on arrival. The breakfast buffet was fine but similar to another review the scrambled eggs ran out early!

#positive #I was happy with the Convenience of Transport, Bed Comfort Level, Location, Soundproofing, Hotel Smell, Nearby Activities; #GoodPraise# Satisfied with the convenience of transportation, comfort of bedding, location, sound insulation, hotel smell, and nearby activities

Very satisfied with the room, on the other hand the breakfast much less: service from 6:30 am (ok) to 9:30 am ??? It surprised me, why not until 10am? As we arrived around 9-9:10 there were no more paper napkins!?!? I thought it's annoying for tomorrow.... In short, rather disappointed with the breakfast service
