    Parking may have been tricky if we hadn’t arrived after 6.30 on a Saturday evening with parking free after that time and on Sunday but there are plenty of spaces in the square. The staff were OK, not overly helpful but fine.

    It’s location

    Good value for money, however check whether the bathroom has a door!

    This time (3rd stay within a month's time) there was no door between the room and the bathroom facilities. Just a curtain. One can imagine the smells and sounds! The outside restaurant tables cannot be booked in advance, not even for hotel guests. The only tables left were for 4 persons, whilst other groups of 4 sat at 2 x 2 person tables. We were not allowed a table for 4, so we decided to have dinner elsewhere on the market place. Although in average this hotel is good value for money, this time's experience makes us think twice before booking again. On nice summer days, the noise from the lively marketplace continues until deep in the night, so difficult to sleep with the windows open in a hot stuffy room.

    Centrally located on the historical market place opposite of the carpark entrance. Restaurant with nice terrace outside and a good choice of menus. Lift. During our first 2 stays we had a convenient room and bathroom. Ventilator to keep us as cool as possible.

    We're glad we weren't staying a few days earlier at the height of the heatwave as there is no air conditioning in the rooms.

    Great location on the Grande Place - plenty of places to eat and drink nearby. Although our room overlooked the square and it was Friday night, the noise wasn't enough to keep us awake. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was good and reasonably priced. There's an underground car park nearby. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, especially the guy on reception. We would stay again if in the area.

    Nothing.

    Breakfast was plentiful, and a great menu for evening meals in the restaurant. Front row seats for the Tour de France were a wonderful bonus.

    Everything was fine.

    This hotel is comfortable and very pleasantly situated on the main square in Bethune. The staff are super nice, friendly and helpful. Initial anxieties about the loud bells from the bell tower spoiling our sleep were allayed when we realised they do not chime in the night or early in the morning. There is a good restaurant downstairs with once again lovely helpful staff. We didn’t stay for Breakfast as we were en route to the tunnel which is just over an hour’s drive.

    The noise - they can't really do much about it, you're on the main town plazza... so don't expect a quiet night. The wifi still leaves a bit to desire and when my husband got on with his, it wasn't safe. My Apple devices simply refused to allow the connection.

    The welcome and service is always amazing; they make you feel at home. It's a very central location and this time we can at Xmas, with the market and therefore one of the busiest times of the year. The restaurant downstairs was packed, the staff were on their knees, but they had time for us and treated us well. The room met expectations - spacious and comfortable. Any additions we would need can be met given the location at the centre of the city.

    The restaurant found it difficult to offer allium free food .Otherwise it was excellent.

    Unusual to find a comfortable small family type hotel .Right on the towns main square ,but quiet during the night .Friendly helpful staff.Clean modern rooms and an excellent restaurant serving a great variety of dishes both traditional and modern .A real treat was breakfast was available until 10.a.m. We hope to return some day .

    Room smelt of old cigarette smoke and bathroom had terrible smell of drains. Very creaky floor! Terrible WiFi couldn’t get on the hotel network, used the town public free wifi that wasn’t bad

    Position. Lively restaurant. Good value food. Large room overlooking the main square. Parking nearby but expensive (over 20 euro for the night)

    Parking not free except overnight. However the receptionist explained that after 6pm no charge as a public car park. It wasn’t that expensive but in high season would be an issue. Woken by some ‘happy’ pub drinkers so had there been air con the window would have been closed.

    The location was good. Lovely view over the square. Good to have a lift. Bed very comfortable. Shower excellent. Restaurant great food and reasonable. Learned about ‘Welsh’ a local dish introduced by the Welsh. Reception excellent and helpful.
