ibis Albert Pays de Somme

Fantastic position. Very easy to find. Food very good. Lovely bar/eating area. Great outdoor terrace space. Excellent ‘jumping off’ position for touring around. More umbrellas would have helped in sun. I would be more than happy to stay again.

Very good hotel. Stayed 3 nights whilst on a self guided battlefield tour. Check in very easy. I like to speak French when visiting France but the staff here speak English so no problems if you get stuck with French. I was first floor at the rear of the hotel in a nice big room with tv, comfortable bed and en suite with good shower. The room was quiet apart from the usual noisy guest that finds it necessary to slam doors and stamp about, obviously this issue beyond the hotels control. Good size free car park. Very good restaurant and reasonably priced. Good continental breakfast but also had boiled eggs, scrambled eggs and bacon, plenty of choice. The reception has some armchairs to sit with a drink from the bar and a pool table, also some tables and chairs outside. It’s about 30 minutes to walk into Albert where there are numerous restaurants but most don’t open until 6pm so best to check timings. Good bakery 5 minute walk away next to a McDonalds if that suits you. I’d return here to stay.

We wanted a hotel close to Albert town centre and within the Somme battlefields. The Hotel was everything we needed. Situated on the deg of town and within 2 minutes of the battlefields and cemeteries, a walk into town can be taken in half an hour but Albert has plenty of free parking so after a day wandering the sights we chose to drive in. there is a large supermarket very close. Breakfast is a buffet style, and very nice. Dinner from a menu is also very good and well served with pleasant staff

Paid for breakfast. Very good selection. Parking was good. There seemed to be a skeleton staff but they were fantastic. Had dinner and that was lovely. Had a problem with one of the party being locked in the bathroom but staff came immediately to sort the problem. Offered a different room but could not be guaranteed air conditioning which was already on in the room and had cooled it. Can't believe the small number of staff managed to be everywhere and doing everything. Can't talk highly enough of them.

The conveince of location, it was ideal for a 2 night stay on our return to the U.K. and visit the various war graves. The staff were friendly, especially in the dining area. Tea and coffee was available during the day, also a bar in the evening. Our room was clean and tidy, the shower was a good size, the bed was comfortable.
