Novotel Lens Noyelles

We stayed here to break up a journey home to the UK from Southern France. We have stayed in a number of places for this purpose and this was by far and away the best. We usually have to find a supermarket to get something to eat and drink, but the restaurant for dinner was very good, the bar welcome. Parking easy and secure, car charger did the job, enough space for our dog to enjoy. Room spot on. But the lasting thought is how good and friendly the hotels people were, just wonderful!

Lovely hotel, friendly and helpful staff. Stayed here 2 nights, it's right next to a shopping mall. So great for shopping, although everything is shut on Sundays (except the restaurants). Although near busy roads very quiet in hotel. Room good, with a nice view over the hotel gardens. Beds OK, but not the most comfy, terrible pillows. Good bathroom with great toiletries. Had a meal here one night, which was very good, good food and good service.

We stopped for 1 night after watching Olympic basketball in Lille before heading to Paris. Great location off the road down to Paris but no noise from the road. Lovely hotel with outdoor pool, beautiful grounds, boules, ping pong, mini football pitch and kids area inside with a little library and table football. Restaurant looked and smelt great. Short 4 minute walk to a huge shopping centre with slides for kids. A big Auchun supermarket and climbing activities (extra charge). Other restaurants nearby and a petrol station. Would happily have stayed longer and return again. 2x electric charging points for cars, free cold water station which was very welcome, comfortable and quiet bed and room and WiFi throughout.

We stayed here on our journey home from Germany. It’s within easy distance of Calais and isn’t far from the autoroute. Our room was clean and comfortable. The hotel has an outdoor pool, but the weather wasn’t warm enough for us to consider using it. However, it was warm enough to sit out in the attractive grounds. We also sat out in the evening for a drink in the outdoor dining area, which is pleasant enough, but could do with a little attention to get rid of things such as the rusty edges to parasol bases. There is a huge shopping centre, including an Auchan supermarket just across the road from the hotel. This includes plenty of restaurants if you want something different from the hotel restaurant. We’d be happy to stay here again if we were travelling in that area.
