Hôtel Akena Caudry Cambrai

Avoid unless desperate !

Waited 20 mins for reception to open then another 20 mins fir the staff to actually give me a room key as on phone and drinking coffee! Room was dated needed a good clean spiders and cobwebs in corners Carpet needed replaced

Affordable and overall clean, beds and shower were all clean.

I prefer hotels with staff at the desk, the check-in was a bit stressful. Also, the carpet floors in the bedroom were filthy. Mostly stains, but still very dirty. The air conditioning didn’t work so we had to open the window and couldn’t close the curtain with the window open, so felt a bit exposed to the outside.

They had parking and it was a good place for me to start my Paris to Roubaix bike ride.

My room smelled like cigarette smoke. Particularly the bath room. I complained to the front desk within 10 minutes of check in and they said they were full and had no rooms to switch me too.

Early entry and exit with breakfast - all very good

Clean and efficient - great friendly check in

I’d have liked some bacon with breakfast! But not usual in France so a small thing.

It was a reasonably priced transit hotel that with a Buffalo Grill next door for food. We had plenty of secure parking for our group of motorcycles. Overall it was reasonable value for money.

The hotel was very basic. Breakfast was limited choice and basic choice.

Handy for what I needed, a couple of hours and easy reach for Calais, close to get on the main route to Calais, good parking, quiet place, with a few options to eat close by for my last stop before home, room was ok, roomy, air conditioning, comfortable bed, clean bedding, good shower, bathroom nice and clean, would stay again for a stop before heading home,

Sink was blocked took ages for water to drain away, carpet could have done with a good clean and hover, breakfast is not worth paying for really disappointed, very very basic and not good

Restaurant opposite Buffalo grill

No.tea making equipment in room bed was.to low down and a bit smelly not nice smell

Comfortable placeGood breakfastNot far from the city center, nearby restaurants and shopping centerBig free car park

Wi-Fi not always working properlyFew bathroom stuffs (shampoo, shower gel, etc.)Air-conditioning not so performantA little pricey (but in this area hotels are anyway a little expensive)

Staff very nice and helpful. Good budget end hotel. Room inc bathroom was good. No internet.Breakfast and eating facilities fine.

Nothing really.

Clean and tidy. Staff very helpful. Plenty of parking.It's OK for a one night stop over but not advised for longer stay. Not many places to eat near by. Only a buffalo grill, but the food here was great.

Not really anything I didn't like.

Pleasant, clean room of reasonable size with adequate furnishings Automated exterior blackout shutters very useful - pitch black and silentHuge carpark

No tea/coffee making facilities Rather basic beds, very short, with tiny pillows though they were quite comfortable Shower needed new sealant and door that fitted but rest of bathroom fineLots more electrical sockets required We paid extra for breakfast but it wasn’t worth it - very minimal - would have been better to go to neighbouring MacDonalds

Good price clean

WiFi and coffee machine not working

Location was good and staff was friendly

Breakfast wasn't that great

As a regular visitor the reason I keep coming back is that location, price and quality fit my purpose in an excellent manner. Staff is very supportive, also after formal,closing of reception.

After closing of reception tickets are to be obtained via a dispenser at the entrance. In theory this works beautifully. However, when booking two rooms I have experienced that one time the machine gave out two tickets but only one key, and last time the machine gave out two keys, but no tickets. Therefore I had no clue what roomnumbers the keys were for. Luckily the night porter responded directly to my call and sorted things out within minutes.

Accommodation was the usual high standard, we have stayed here before. The rooms are comfortable. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast.

The hotel met our needs, thank you. I think the car park gate was not closed at night - perhaps it was not working. But it seems to be a secure area.

You have place to sleep.

Breakfast was terrible. No emtpy plate, not filled food (need to wait or request). Options very poor.Personel does not speak any word in english and is not able to issue correct invoice.

I use this as my last stop before getting ferry, it’s very convenient to get on the road and a couple of hours away, it’s in a nice pleasant area with eating places near by and petrol station and a few shops, , hotel has plenty of safe parking, staff are pleasant and helpful , hotel is clean & tidy, rooms are clean & tidy , bed was very comfortable, bathroom was clean & tidy with nice shower, breakfast was extra and very basic and minimal, but a nice hotel to stay just before going home.

Carpet in hallways could do with cleaning, and breakfast could do with revamping very basic and minimal

Easy to findCheapNext to a Buffalo Grill restaurant

understaffed, reception desk only opens at 5pm, no staff at night. There is only one man doing everything (when he is present)Location without any charm at all in the middle of a business zone.

Perfect location for my meeting the next day. Friendly receptionist, reasonably clean room. Quiet. The bed was perfect. No problem that I brought my dog along. A great asset is the location of a Steak and a fastfood restaurant next door.

I should have asked for the WiFi code because it was not given automatically. I didn’t really trust the available open network. The bathroom area is small and getting a bit old. Clean enough but it is beginning to show.
