Benifontaine Hotel Guide - Hotels in Lens, Benifontaine, France

"Fantastic stopover before getting the ferry home (just an hour from Dunkirk) Four to a room was a little cosy but the pull out double sofa bed (actually two single beds) was brilliant for the children. Lovely breakfast, super clean rooms, just over the road from a huge mall where we ate dinner. Didn’t use the pool but looked inviting. Very helpful staff. Nice touches like free water refills (still and sparkling) TV that you can cast from phone (we watched a movie from our Disney plus subscription) "

"We were travelling from Switzerland to Calais and back to uk. Needed somewhere inbetween to rest. Had good reviews so booked this place and also had free parking. The checkin is only open from 1600-2000. We were running late and therefore had to contact reception. The lady who assisted us was wonderful and organised out of hours check in The parking is on street parking and depends on availability of space and therefore free parking is not necessary available. The room was not clean. It smelt foul. There was mould on the sponge on the sink. One of the beds smelt like a drunk homeless man had slept on it. Had stains on the sheets. Could not sleep on that at all! The other bed had small bits on it. We slept with our clothes and for the minimum necessary to recuperate and be on our way The window opens directly onto the street where there is a bar and was noisy all night (it was a Friday night) I am surprised that it has 9/10 rating! Would definitely not rate it at all "

"A fantastic modern hotel just a short walk from the museum, which is well worth a visit. The quietest air conditioning I have ever experienced! Ideal location for the football stadium too, which is 10-15 minutes walk. The town centre is a further 5-10 minutes away, but has very little to offer."

"Perfect stop, one hour south of Calais before the long drive to Italy !!"

"For us it was a good central location for day trips in Hauts-de-France. Lots of parking and shopping across the street. Rooms look over or open to a garden. Weirdly situated in an industrial area. Onsite restaurant is excellent. While somewhat dated, the rooms are very clean and well maintained. Staff speaks some Engish and are very hospitable."

"Older style rooms very cool. Located right on corner across from train station. Convienent. Staff not always present there was a bell to ring them. Sometimes it work other times not but very helpful when they answered bell. "

"Excellent position for overnight stop en route from French alps to Eurotunnel. Discount at nearby restaurant and a bakery nearby for breakfast goods"

"Très bien "

"We arrived late and so an email with clear instructions for access was sent. Very pleasant breakfast service."
