“Holiday Inn Calais-Centre makes a solid base for families headed to or from the ferry; its location near the port and the beach works well. I think the hotel is ideal for short stays, especially with the kids-eat-free deal, which is always a win. While some rooms could use a refresh, the staff seems eager to please, and that makes a difference.”

This hotel is very close to restaurants. I found the location convenient with easy parking near the hotel. The room proved clean, and the beds offered excellent comfort. The staff presented themselves as friendly and always ready to assist with any needs.

The absence of tea bags and milk in the room was a slight oversight, especially after a long day. I also noticed loud music continued until late at night. It impacted rest and relaxation.
