Reviews for Chenal Hotel
Review 1:I have no complaints.
Review 2:Have stayed here before and like its size and location as we are usually catching a train back to Paris. It has a good bar for that nightcap and breakfast is also good.
Review 3:There was no alarm clock and the room phone did not work, so I was totally reliant on my phone to get me up in time for my taxi to the airport.
Review 4:The place has a lot of character, is in a nice location, reasonable distance from the airport, the bulldog café is convenient and the breakfast good. A number of nice restaurants within walking distance. The staff really makes this place worth staying at - very helpful!
Review 5:Had to remind kitchen staff to bring more eggs on buffet and no tea/coffee service.Had to find lady in kitchen and ask her After 6pm bar/restaurant only offers croque monsieur ( cheese on tosat ) but good restaurant across the road.
Review 6:Good room and bathroom. Efficient wifi . Good receptionists , nice staff. Well soundproofed for road noise outside . Room very warm. Opposite station and near shuttle bus stop for airport
Review 7:Loved our stay.
Review 8:The staff were super friendly and helpful. Location to the centre is perfect. If catching a flight to Beauvais airport, there is an airport shuttle right beside the hotel that runs from 6.30 am until late. A taxi is also €20. The hotel start breakfast at 5.30 am.
Review 9:Hotel is right across from the train station and an easy walk to the cathedral. I was there on a Saturday and there is a night club right across the street that was a little noisey.
Review 10:1. Parking arrangements not at all as expected / described. 2. We left an item of clothing behind, telephoned the hotel to report the loss, they told us they'd found it and promised to post it back to us, but (3-4 weeks later) it has not arrived!
Review 11:1. Positive staff attitude! 2. Hotel ideally located for the rail station and within 10-15 mins easy walk of the cathedral. 3. Just opposite the hotel, there's a very convenient (independent) restaurant.
Review 12:The bedroom carpet not my taste
Review 13:Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly the kiosk near over the road was ideal for a coffee or evening meal and as it was run by the same team as the hotel service was second to none
Review 14:lots of street noise int he room, had to keep the window open because it was so hot.
Review 15:Staff was helpful but didn't speak any english. location was great near the train station and a bus dropped us very close format he airport.
Review 16:Too close to a main street and bar. It was very noisy sometimes.
Review 17:The staff was very proffesional and friendly. Bautiste checked consistently on our needs, and reassure our visit was pleasant.
Review 18:The WiFi was not good and the toilet smelled bad.
Review 19:The staff were very helpful and spoke good English. The room was large, clean and very comfortable. The fruit basket and bottles of water were a lovely touch.
Review 20:breakfast costs an extra 12 euros per person which is why I put a low score for facilities/value for money. This was the only down side of staying here.
Review 21:Everything else was suitable for our needs. The hotel was just over the road from the train station and close to the bus stop for the airport. It was only a short walk to the cathedral and shops.
Review 22:This hotel is in a good location but the room was very dated and sooundproofing from noise outside non existent. No aircon in room and no fridge supplied. Could do with a good clean up and coat of paint.
Review 23:Good size bathroom and shower.Staff very helpful.
Review 24:The room was next to the road junction which was a bit noisy once the traffic got going
Review 25:Free street parking immediately outside, friendly staff, value for money.
Review 26:As other reviewers have said the hallway can be dark but there are plenty of light switches outside the room doors so it's not a problem. The breakfast was perfectly good but a bit too expensive.
Review 27:This hotel is in an excellent location beside the train station and the bus stop for the airport. It is a nice small, clean hotel. I would have no hesitation staying here again.
Review 28:Heat was a bit strange to control and wireless kept dropping, especially when two were using.
Review 29:We were very please with the older but nice room and GREAT location. 5 minutes to the center of town. Right across from the train station into Gard du Nord for 14.5 Euro.
Review 30:the dinner at the hotel bar was abysmal.
Review 31:there is no shuttle from the hotel itself but there are two different buses that run from a stop nearby. It is literally acrid the street from the train station.
Review 32:kept having to reconnect to internet. bit annoying espec when in a hurry
Review 33:Amandine! the receptionist who was there when we arrived and then the next day. Just a lovely friendly kind good person very welcome for weary travellers having tearful airport farewell. other staff members and the boss also very nice helpful people and i liked the room decor and bar and it was so easy for getting to the airport and for bopping into paris on the train. Excellent experience!
Review 34:Excellent location - literally opposite the train station and 5 mins walk from the centre of town. Staff were friendly and helpful and there was a really relaxed air about the hotel. We were able to leave luggage for collection, after we'd checked out.
Review 35:No Tv at least it didnt work Not a lot of choice for the expensive breakfast toilet just next to the tap, very small bathroom
Review 36:Nice staff but I didnt have all informations foe exemple the price for the coatch to the airport as I didnt have any change and couldnt pay it. Just in front of the train station. Snooze
Review 37:Wifi is cumbersome and needs separate passwords for multiple devices. But overall can't complain - a simple nice hotel.
Review 38:Handy location just outside the train station. Very helpful staff - allowed me to print out boarding passes and gave directions. Room spacious, bed large, bath even larger. Water, some fruits and snacks in the room.
Review 39:basic, but clean hotel with kind staff. very convenient for travelling to the airport. at the reception you can book your taxi for the next morning which is also helpful
Review 40:No fridge
Review 41:Perfect location - a few steps to a bus stop to airport, the same to the train station. Big comfortable room (especially after Paris hotels) ;)
Review 42:Quite expensive for such a basic hotel.The breakfast was very simple and very overpriced
Review 43:Friendly service Opposite Beauvais station The room was basic, but the bed was comfortable and the bath was nice.
Review 44:Poor sound proof between the rooms, there is a noisy bar across the street working till late
Review 45:Friendly staff, private parking though it's quite tight there, railway station across the street if you arrive/leave by train
Review 46:The minuteries (on the 3rd floor) didn't have a little light so was hard to locate in the pitch dark of the corridor but they are located next to the door of each room.
Review 47:Location is good for train station, taxi rank* and buses (*beware, no taxis on a Sunday in Beauvais). Good to have a bar available for drinks - staff friendly. Good varied breakfast as well. Room was comfortable and plenty wall sockets for charging gadgets. Will stay here again.
Review 48:Short stay - would love to have stayed longer.
Review 49:The location of this quaint hotel was opposite a picturesque train station with a direct link to Paris and adjacent to a lovely park, complete with fountain and restaurant. Best of all, the airport bus (€4 return within 48 hours) dropped us practically outside the door. Friendly welcome from receptionist. Adequate sized double bedroom was clean and comfortable with complemetary water and fruit. Wall mounted tv that had a good selection of channels. Well-lit bathroom that featured a corner bath and portable shower. Hairdryer on wall above basin. Everything in the hotel was good and we would definitely return. Friendly staff, good facilities and good food. Great breakfast in the morning that included cereal, fruit, yoghourt, cooked breakfast and the usual tea, coffee and pastries. Dining area small and cosy. For a 3 star hotel, we give it the 'thumbs up'. Well worth a visit.
Review 50:- rooms and furniture totally worn out - noisy as the rooms are just above a traffic light
Review 51:- Convenient located opposite of the railway station with small park and restaurants in the area - cosy bar / restaurant in the hotel - friendly staff
Review 52:Friday, Saturday evenings and nights-to noisy café and restaurant clients..
Review 53:enough good location, not far from metro station. many café around hotel-no problems for breakfast or dinner. clean rooms, new bathrooms.
Review 54:Right across the street from the train station and bus stop for airport bus! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. And while I attempted to speak French, they successfully attempted to speak English. Wonderful experience!!!
Review 55:Staff very helpful infact excellent. Made us feel very welcome. Minded our cases for us when we where checking out because we had a late flight home. Excellent stay
Review 56:The breakfast was for 12 euro. It does not deserve this value. Not so many options. I would pay more for more option but there was no choice. It is only coffee, tea, egg and some simple stuff for the breakfast.
Review 57:The staff were cooperative and helpful.
Review 58:Location. Right outside the train station so 1 min the next morning to get the shuttle bus to Beauvais Airport. The room and bathroom were huge - especially after a box in Paris for 5 days! Staff were lovely, the hotel is dated but very clean and the breakfast good, everything fresh and freshly cooked.
Review 59:The hotel is very old and needs refurbishment. It is also close by a very loud bar that played music till the early morning hours. The bar food menu was extremly limited and not fresh food.
Review 60:Location to Airport and train Station. Staff very friendly and welcoming.
Review 61:Very little to dislike, clonky lift maybe, but only when using it. The lift was never heard in the room. The evening meal was one thing we had to go into the centre for, but we would have done this anyway to get a choice of eateries and food styles. Satnav kept taking us to the other end of the road the hotel was in, but aiming for the railway station made it easy once we knew it's location and then things were very simple to find, and get to in the evening.
Review 62:Always clean, staff generous in their help and close to centre of town. About 5-7 minutes walk for the centre, where most of the cafe's and bars were, serving food and drink into the evening. Being August, many bars and cafes were closed, but still enough remained open to have a reasonable choice of food. Nice touch with windows opening sideways and alternatively at the top for all-night ventilation in the hot weather.
Review 63:The bR might be a bit to slow on service...but cousy..
Review 64:Location. 10 mini Ute walk to the village centre. Cost is good..fair i would say. Personnel is friendly Great place at this lovely town
Review 65:LACK OF CLIMATE CONTROL, NO FANS AVAILABLE (LOUD RESTAURANT NEARBY IF WINDOWS OPENED) LIFT IS SCARY AND MADE FOR 1 PERSON NIGHT STAFF WAS NOT HELPFUL I was traveling with an elderly lady and small children, the lack of air conditioning or ventilation and the lack of response from the staff when I pointed this out makes me hesitate to give this hotel the rating it would have gotten had I not visited during the middle of summer.
Review 66:The hotel and the rooms were well maintained. The hotel would be a perfect hotel with some climate additions and a little more helpful staff. The day staff. Convenient to train and airport bus if you are heading to the Paris Beauvais airport.
Review 67:A few of the people on the trip found it quite noisy. La Kiosque bar over the road is great for food & drinks but not so great if you need windows open and want to sleep!
Review 68:Nice, clean hotel with nice, friendly and helpful staff right next to hotel. Lovely park opposite. Breakfast was expensive in comparison to other places but as we were group of 15 they agreed a discount and it was a reasonable spread
Review 69:It was a shame that the boiler had broken so when we arrived there was no hot water. We were told immediately and offered to go elsewhere or take a reduction in the cost of the room with a free breakfast.
