Grand-Fort-Philippe Hotels

"This was a great stay that we would recommend. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Free parking. The room was spacious and well appointed with a kitchenette including microwave cooktop and fridge. Our room had great views over the harbour and the hotel was walking distance to C B D. There was also a games room. The breakfast was excellent!!"

"Breakfast had excellent choice- very fresh and clean - coffee great. Parking extremely safe as Gendarmes on mass park there - must be the safest car park in Calais. "

"Great stay and nice pool"

"When we arrived the property looked run down and in an isolated area. I should have known to have been concerned by the security precautions on reception/ The receptionist tried to be helpful but language was a barrier- only spoke French. The website advertised a restaurant - this is a lie. There is no restaurant for this accommodation. There is a best western across the road but this was out of our price range and there are no nearby shops at all. We had to order an expensive takeaway. The room was FILTHY DIRTY! There was a crusty dirty sock under one of the beds, the mattresses smelt dirty and stale, and the bathroom had PUBIC HAIR all over the floor, doors, and walls. The area felt unsafe for myself and my two children- the bolts on the doors would not lock as they had clearly been previously broken and I tried to stack our luggage in front of the door to feel safe. I was too worried to open the window at night so the room was too hot to sleep in, very smelly and none of us slept at all - not ideal for the 11 hour drive we had the next day. Appalling accommodation- would never stay at one of these ever again!"

"Good bed and room . Pleasant staff and very good evening meal"

"My wife and I came here as part of our anniversary celebration. We were looking forward to a comfortable, learning experience. This is our first time in this part of France but 2nd time in France. You would think that this hotel being in a worldwide historic destination(Dunkirk) that the hotel staff would at least think of visitors that maybe coming from other parts of the world. They failed. They did not accommodate our visit whatsoever. From the initial greeting, I sensed that we were intruding their hotel. There was no sense of welcoming... no sense of warmth that is usually present in places of hospitality. Our stay was anything but hospitable & enjoyable. We couldn't wait to leave. The French are known for their indifference, lack of warmth, and lack of civility... this French hotel staff succeeded in all three. Simple requests were met hesitation, indifference and rudeness. I could go on and on. I will never come back to this place and will advise those in my circle not to come here... or France for that matter as both of my visits to France were anything but enjoyable."

"Stayed for one night after travelling on le shuttle and before heading south. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable. Restaurant was a nice place to sit after the long journey. "

"perfect location for overnight stopover en route to & from south west France via Le Shuttle - staff always very friendly & accommodating."

"Room was in poor condition some items broken and I have used this hotel many times before but now you have to pay for parking (the only campanile that does charge for parking)"
