Best Hotels near Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus at Étaples, Etaples

Very comfortable and modern Very good price quality ratio I strongly recommend Near the shopping and center. Take the car for the beach in the rivers 10 mns Breakfast at €9 with no much salt is bad If the coffee is essential for you you will need to take it elsewhere

Conveniently situated a couple of km from the A16 this hotel had everything needed for an overnight stay and only 50min from the Eurotunnel. A great nights sleep and an amazing breakfast set us on our way the following morning. Can’t recommend enough. The evening before we even had time to check out the amazing beaches at Berke.

First the good news. Brand new hotel so everything is clean and fresh. Liked the fact that it was 30 mins walk/10 mins bike into town - it was quiet and peaceful. The pool was very nice as was the outdoor spa area. Rooms are on the small size (ask for one with a larger balcony - ours was tiny) but perfectly fine. The Cabana area was great - live music, food was good (pizzas, meat and cheese boards, snacks) and service from the charming Juliette especially was kind and smiling. Reception staff need better training - they aren’t particularly friendly and when we checked out no one even asked if we’d enjoyed our stay! I was also given the iron and ironing board if asked for whilst standing in reception so I had to carry it to the room myself rather than having it delivered - which was odd. But by far the biggest issue we had was the restaurant. It clearly sees itself as fine dining and had a price point to match. This is not matched by the quality. We paid €175 with wine for two, for which we’d expect something pretty good. Our ‘ceviche’ was nothing of the sort. Raw fish yes but should be bursting with citrus flavour. Remarkably it didn’t taste of anything at all. We added a ton of salt, pepper and lemon juice to try and kick it into life but it was pointless. The ‘chimichurri’ on top again was an insult to Latin America. It was basically a dry ratatouille with courgettes and red peppers - neither of which you’d EVER see in a chimichurri. It was horrible. The main course was tuna tataki which traditionally is laden with flavours of ginger and soy. It will come as no surprise that it featured neither, instead being overcooked tuna slicked with a weird orange sauce and some small random veg scattered around it. There was also a glob of what tasted like yellow bean hummus on the plate - just weird. Trying way too hard to be clever - if you can’t cook tataki, chimichurri or ceviche - which you can’t - then stick to what you know. We are out every other night which we wouldn’t have if the restaurant had been any good. It’s terrible. The best part was the bread basket. When we gave our critique at the time, the waitress didn’t particularly seem to care and same for when we checked out when we mentioned this disaster again. Save yourself the financial pain and the disappoin**ent of this kitchen’s inadequacy and if you stay in go for the less fancy, but much better, food on the terrace at the Cabana. And experience great service if people like Juliette who genuinely seem to care.

The hotel is a grand old hotel,but on a human scale - the hotel has been beautifully refurbished and no expense appears to have been spared. We had a superior room, which I think is the bottom category of room, but it didn’t disappoint- extremely well equipped and very comfortable. The public rooms were very comfortable, the staff helpful and very professional- nothing was too much trouble. If you go to Le Touquet, spoil yourself and stay here - it is well worth it.
