Even for just 1 overnight stay en-route and at (as low as) £35.00 We will NOT use this hotel again. The lights in the room were not working. Electricity wiring looked a bit dodgy. Had to leave the window open because it felt unclean. It's on the noisy road with bars and pubs. Basically didn't sleep well. Shower was leaking. Overall rubbish.

Hotel er en overdrivelse
Hotellet er et do-it-your-self, uden personale. Det er ikke specielt dyrt, men dyrt i forhold til hvad man får.

Value for money
We had 3nights at Citadel, but we had 2nights in a double room and one night in a twin. Nice crisp white bed linen and towels. Twin room felt more spacious and as it had two windows. Nice accommodation for the price. Very central for Ferry port, and bars and restaurants. Very helpful staff.

patétique
arrivée et aucune indication pour s'enregistrer et récupérer le code et le passe de la chambre , merci au passant qui m'a indiquer qu'il fallait s'adresser dans un autre hôtel qui se situe à plus de 500 m . accueil du réceptionniste agréable, retour à l'hôtel et !!! oh surprise en découvrant une chambre d'environ 11 m2 , aucun rapport avec les photos mise sur le site, je ne vais pas tout détailler car il y aurait long a dire mais , après avoir eu trois passes dont deux défectueux , un accrochage avec le gérant de l'hôtel qui vous agresse alors que vous ne vous adressé pas a lui , un matelas et des oreillers tachés ++ , matelas qui date de Mathusalem , bref aucune recommandation pour cet hôtel . je tiens à remercier la jeune fille qui faisait le ménage tout les jours , serviable , et faisait son possible à satisfaire les demandes des clients .

I was scammed.
Hotel was locked up on arrival, it was pouring with rain. I tried the buttons no joy. I then noticed a piece of appear to call. Not mowing the local code I had to find that then call the number. Someone replied and said they would come. Someone did and we went inside. No booking on there system they said. Hotel full. Hotels.com no good they said. I was not happy. We have another hotel not far I you go there we have one room left. So in the pouring rain what else could I do. I was dire, filthy, old. No wifi, shower head broken off and a piece of cord for a shower. Bed was filthy. I eat tried to sleep, couldn't and left after 5am. Funny though that they said go to the room and I can pay when I come down, they they had taken payment by the time I came back so they found the booking. I was not pleased I was not in what I booked, as I had stayed there before with the BBC. This was a scam, total scam, never again will I be booking this way.

Decent out of the Calais Budget hotels.
I returned here, after trying out all the local lowest price hotels, that's 25-35 euro. I'd rate them in this order Belazur & Citadel - yes Beffroi, Pacific - no not unless others are booked out Marie Tudor - no don't even think about it. Citadel room, I've stayed in 3 of the 9, are fine for cleanliness. Hard to work out how to use the TVs, the water in the showers can be variable, but rooms renovated, warm, not damp smelly like Pacific and Marie Tudor. Worst part is having to go to Belazur to collect the key, that's a pain and should be clearly written on the adverts on hotels.com.

Outside was warmer than the hotel room
No heating when we told the reception he just shrugged it off with no attempt to rectify the problem and it was cold that night. Perfect for those who don't like heat or warmth !

Très mauvais
Très mauvais. Il n'y a pas de réception mais il n'y a pas non plus d'information pour savoir comment rentrer dans l'hôtel!. Par chance un autre couple allait dans cet hôtel et en arrivant l'après-midi n'ont pas pu rentrer. C'est en demandant autour qu'ils ont appris qu'il fallait aller à l'hôtel Azur pour récupérer les cartes de chambres. Ce couple (famille Mijatovic) a d'ailleurs annulé la réservation sur place car il y a des escaliers très très abrupts et ils avaient une personne âgée de 90 ans qui ne pouvait pas monter. Comme ils nous ont expliqué leur mésaventure et que nous étions sur la route, nous avons essayé d'appeler l’hôtel Citadel pour prévenir que nous n'arrivions que vers 22h30.. pendant plus de 2 heures nous avons essayé d'appeler au Citadel et même à l'hôtel Azur et personne n'a répondu!!! Arrivés vers 22h30 nous nous sommes donc dirigés à l'Azur et là autre surprise le veilleur de nuit nous dis qu'il n'a pas de cartes pour nous... Finalement il a passé plusieurs coup de fil et les cartes étaient bien là. Il nous a accompagné Citadel mais n'avait pas une des cartes de la chambre. Il nous a fait entrer avec son passe et promis de la ramener dans les 15 minutes. Ces 15 minutes se sont transformées en un tapage à la porte de la chambre à 1h30 du matin!!! et comme nous étions complètement endormi il a glissé la carte sous la porte. A rayer de vos hôtels!

Shockingly, the Citadel hotel, in Calais', was closed when I arrived: along with four others: some local 'scandal', involving the Police, according to locals. While trying to find somewhere else, I had my wallet pickpocketed, and I spent a rather 'purgatorial' night on a park bench. I'm currently trying to get my money back from Hotels.com. No 'accommodation' on that score either, as yet.

One night only
No lift but four flights, not all rooms have own toilet which is not mentioned in the ads, showers inadequate- too small and little pressure. Worst of all the reception only operates for one hour from 4pm - 5pm so it is almost impossible to get in touch with them (they pack the phone away and don't answer or have a message service)

AVOID THIS HOTEL.
We arrived at this hotel at approx 4pm on a November 2016 Saturday. The entrance door was closed; there were no lights visible inside the hotel and no sign of any Receptionist whatsoever - just an empty desk in the dark. There was no bell to ring and no instructions as to what to do. There was no apparent side entrance. I phoned the hotel telephone number in France mentioned on our booking confirmation (I speak French) but the person who answered the phone obviously had no connection with the hotel. I phoned venere.com on the number on our booking confirmation and correctly answered all the questions but operators were busy and after a few minutes I had to give up and seek an alternative solution as I knew that some other hotels were fully booked and I needed to find another hotel and not have to sleep in the car.

Cheap
For the price this is great stopover. I could not get in! Hotel is locked, small foyer with no receptionist. No notice on how to check in, went round to other hotels asking advice until someone who could tell me sister hotel for checking in. Otherwise cheaper than anywhere else, shower too small

A lovely stay.
I was very much impressed with my little room. It was just a simple, self contained room but it was lovely after a long day to have a space of my own to return to. I stayed for 5 nights, the room was always clean but the sheets were not cleaned for the entire stay. The staff were lovely. The bars across from the hotel were fantastic and cheap.

mauvais rapport qualité prix - hôtel inadapté
Arrivé à 20h45: accueil de l'hôtel fermé. Appel au N° indiqué sur la porte: je dois récupérer la carte d'accès de ma chambre dans un autre hôtel situé à 300 m et on me donne de mauvaises indications pour m'y rendre (10 bonnes min de marche à pied avec mes bagages). Je devais payer à l'hôtel: ma carte a déjà été débitée. Impossible d'avoir une facture: on me la promet pour le lendemain dans ma chambre. Le lendemain: pas de facture. A l'accueil de l'autre hôtel (l'accueil de l'hôtel CITADEL est constamment fermé lorsque je pars ou j'arrive) toujours impossible d'avoir la facture. Je dois retourner à l'accueil une 3e fois le surlendemain. Chambre correcte mais SDB yc WC d'environ 1 m2 avec un simple rideau circulaire pour la douche (demi-cercle de 50 cm de diamètre pour se doucher). Séjour inoubliable...

One night stay
The room was small but clean. The beds were comfortable and the shower and loo were clean and functioned well. This is a small hotel with only 9 rooms, all up steep stairs to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors. No lift, so not suitable for visitors with mobility difficulties. The young lady on reception duty was helpful. The rooms have little sound insulation so could be noisy. No public rooms, coffee shop or other facilities. All in all, fine for a brief stay, probably not for any length of time

Good location 5 mins walk to the beach (plaga)
Do not expect much from this hotel, we arrived at the hotel at 5pm. There no one to open the door as you needed a code to get in. There was a sign at the door to go to a near by hotel. We did and at the reception they took our details and gave us the key to the room,and code for the entrance door. The room was very tidy, the bathroom has no bath and is very small so if you think you are over weight that is definitely a bathroom you don't want to use. My room came with a balcony so that was a plus for me. The bed was comfortable but not good for action (noisy) The TV works but it says no signals when it comes on. Will I stay there again? I really don't know:)
