I do stay here 3 times a year but it’s busy. I don’t expect to be remembered but I was and that is welcoming. Particularly good as a solo traveller. I feel looked after in le phare. Plus I enjoy the atmosphere and location when having supper. The rooms are very clean.

We stayed the night before a ferry crossing. Very convenient location, clean room and had everything you needed for a short stay. Not luxury, but perfectly sufficient

The receptionist on Saturday night was brilliant.
I wanted to make another reservation for August and immediately he took care of it
Food in the reception is very good and the beer ( Afligem) tasted even better after arriving from Tours. Very close to the D day beaches and Pegasus bridge

Best hotel in area - close to ferry terminal, easy parking, good food and service, comfortable rooms, reasonable price. Have stayed in other much more expensive hotels in area and found that their service and food was poor.
