Heerlijk hotel in het centrum van Arras. Helaas is er wel een beperkt aantal parkeerplaatsen maar in de directe omgeving kun je prima parkeren.

Served its purpose as a one night stopover during our WW1 history trip.
Pros:

Great location for visiting Arras and nice to have parking option as well. Bed comfortable

Cons:

Rooms and venue a bit dated and could do with a refresh and tidy up. Bar was unattended and we had to find staff to help us and wine options extremely limited as didnt have some of them. Coffee ran out in breakfast and we had to go out and use the one in the lobby. Nothing major at all but have stayed in better hotels

Great value hotel for a one night stopover in Arras
Pros:

Very quiet, comfortable big bed, friendly staff and nice location. Great value for money

Cons:

It's a bit tired, there's was a bit of a smell in the bathroom and they only gave us one bath towel! We didn't say anything because it was too late by the time we realised! I'm sure this was just an oversight. It was such great value.

Wobble 2026
Pros:

We have stayed here 3 times before. It's got safe parking out of site ( but was very full ) .it's just a few minutes walk from the square .it a good price too .nice comfy rooms and a good size breakfast .

Cons:

Our motorcycles were blocked in by a car .we did manage to all get out but it was difficult .
Breakfast has allways been good here but I was disappointed this time .there was a continental breakfast selection ,only hot food was scrambled egg .we asked if there would be sausages and bacon but were told that the cooker had broken .to me it's not acceptable when you have a full hotel .there should be an alternative way to cook .one lady had to run reception and the bar .maybe it's new owners but service does seem to be going backwards .such a shame
