The hotel has a nice bar and a restaurant. We enjoyed two pizzas and some wine in the restaurant that night. The pizzas were just ok but it was nice to have something warm and some tasty wine to wash it down with. The service was really great even though we were the only ones in the restaurant. They also have a room service menu. The room was a good size and we were able to comfortably stay with 4 people. The bathroom was a little bit dated but it was very clean and in good repair. Our room also overlooked the harbor which I thought was neat. We stayed on a Friday night. Be warned that few restaurants nearby are open for breakfast Saturday morning, however there was this awesome French market in the town square where we got a Nutella waffle. Otherwise you could do the hotel breakfast but that seemed a bit pricey to us. Overall this was a great spot to stop over in Calais and I would stay here again.

Holiday Inn Calais…read more Good, clean hotel right on the harbour front with views of the ferries. Very friendly welcome from the reception staff, who gave recommendations on where to park (quite a few unsavoury characters along the sea front so we were advised not to park on the street alongside the harbour out of sight of the hotel. We found a space directly opposite the hotel instead). The family room we had on the fourth floor was easily big enough for the four of us along with the hotel provided travel cot for our baby and the bathroom was equally larger than expected and clean. While Calais isn't exactly the sort of place I'd recommend for anything other than an overnight for ferry or tunnel services this hotel was a great example of a clean and modern Holiday Inn so wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
