From check-in to check-out the Matelote excelled. Easy to find and with pre booked parking we were in our room within minutes. The check-in clerk was professionalism personified and he arranged for a colleague to open up the garage and escort us back to our room. The room overlooked the main road outside NAUSICAÄ, Sea Experience Centre but we did... more

We stayed as a family of 4 over a long weekend at half term. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotel was in a good location, although on the main road.

My husband, two children and I had an excellent overnight stay en route from Calais and would not hesitate to return. We... more
