A sea-facing terrace and regional cooking on the sea wall
Superb · 4283 reviews
About this stay
Hotel De La Plage faces the water directly on the Digue Gaston Berthe, the sea wall that runs behind the Calais beach, and the terrace is the reason to book it. The bar opens onto an outdoor terrace looking at the strait, the restaurant serves regional cooking, and a buffet breakfast is laid out each morning. Rooms carry a flat-screen television with satellite channels, a desk and a modern en suite bathroom with a bath or shower, and many look out to sea. Pets are accepted, family rooms are available and there are facilities for guests with reduced mobility. Eighty free private parking spaces sit on site, five of them adapted, and Calais Train Station is a five-minute drive inland. What separates this address from the hotels in the centre is what surrounds it: beachfront position, hiking, walking tours and bike tours all listed on site, and the coastal path west towards Cap Blanc-Nez and the Caps et Marais d'Opale starting from the same stretch of sand.
- Beachfront position with sea views
- Restaurant serving regional cooking
- Free private parking and adapted spaces
- Pets accepted and family rooms available
Our take
The sea is the reason to book the Hôtel De La Plage: it stands on the Digue Gaston Berthe in Calais, with sea-view rooms, a bar and a restaurant serving regional cooking. Eighty free private parking spaces and accepted pets make it easy for drivers and dog owners alike. The centre is a short drive away, and the score of 7.4 from over 4,200 reviews is fair. I would choose it for a seafront night with dinner on site.
- ✓Book a sea-view room rather than a rear one, the whole appeal of this address is the water in front of it.
- ✓Take dinner on the terrace facing the sea in summer, the restaurant serves regional cooking and the light lasts late here.
- ✓Set out west along the coast on foot or by bike in spring, walking and bike tours run from the hotel towards the Deux Caps.

Why guests love itFamilies who want the beach at the door get exactly that at the Hôtel De La Plage, which faces the sea from the Digue Gaston Berthe in Calais. Family rooms are available, some rooms look straight out to sea, and the restaurant serves regional cooking, so dinner needs no planning. Eighty free private parking spaces make arriving with bikes and luggage simple, and pets are accepted. The town centre and Calais station are about five minutes away by car.
