The Good & The Bad

  • +
    Breakfast is the star of the house, praised for pastries, fresh fruit, yoghurt, boiled eggs and especially the regional cheeses and cured meats, a generous start before walks along the coast.
  • +
    The beach and the digue, Wimereux's seafront promenade lined with Belle Époque villas, are around three to four hundred metres away, so a sea view walk is part of every morning.
  • +
    Rooms are spacious and comfortable for a seaside hotel, with high cleanliness scores near nine out of ten and some balconies overlooking the street and rooftops.
  • +
    The historic Art Deco character, with a building over a century old, gives more atmosphere than standard coastal hotels.
  • +
    The location is ideal for exploring the Grand Site des Deux Caps, Cap Gris Nez and Cap Blanc Nez, with their dramatic cliffs and views across the Channel to England.
  • -
    Parking in Wimereux is difficult, especially in summer and at weekends, and guests mention spending time searching for space.
  • -
    Some staff speak only French, and English communication can be limited.
  • -
    There is no restaurant for dinner, only snacks at the bar, so evening meals must be found in town.
