Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Really enjoyed the stay here. Walking distance to all the shops and cafes my only gripe was the noise from the sea gulls at two in the morning but once asleep you asleep oh and the bed was so comfy
Lovely overnight stay. Small room and en-suite but fine for one night. Good buffet breakfast had everything we needed. Good location for bars, shops and restaurants but not noisy. We didn’t have a car, but the public car park was 5 minutes away. We will stay there again.
Comfortable rooms, could be air conditioned for warm nights. Showers are way too small.

Cheap hotel for an overnight stay. Needs a bit of modernisation ironically given the name!
Lots of mould in the bathroom.
Wouldn't want to stay again.

The room had been renovated beautifully. Fully rewired with usb charging points and a plethora of lighting options.
The bed was very comfortable with a bolster, two pillows and a decorative cushion per person, the most pillows we've ever encountered in France!
Despite Cherbourg undergoing significant utility and road revamping, it made little impact in the hotel. Free parking was easily available within a few minutes walk 😀

Not happy, the hotel states free parking, there is
Hotel advertises free parking
But when you get there you discover its a car park that is down the road and around a corner, that is only free after a certain time and if you get there after this time, you have very little hope if finding any parking.

Accueil simple et urbain.
Organisation accueillante et pratique.
Petit-déjeuner proche de l’exceptionnel !
(Seule critique, pour en faire une : la salle à manger mériterait un arrangement plus esthétique et chaleureux… mais avec un tel buffet maison, on risquerait d’y rester la journée !)
Hôtel agréable, Chambres cosys mais très mauvaise expérience tout de même une fois arrivée dans la chambre… (arrivée tardive)
Que dire du ménage ??
la salle de bains, avec de longs cheveux dans la douche ainsi que sur les murs qui on du être frotté avec une serviette sale .. sans vous parler des poils !!! (Voir photo)
Dans la chambre, La poussière et encore des cheveux jusqu’à la lampe de bureau (voir photo)
Bref, au prix de la chambre, c’est triste…
Une très mauvaise expérience
J’y venais de temps en temps.
Dommage 😅
Séjour très désagréable à l'hôtel Moderna. Pas de parking et chambre au troisième. Personne pour vous aider à porter les bagages (j'avais trois bagages dont une valise la personne de l'accueil m'a regardé monté sans aucune remarque). Salle de bain très vieillote, lunette des WC à moitié défaire...

Peu fidèle à l’annonce
Pas d’incident majeur, mais globalement en dessous des standards de l’hôtellerie pour un 3*, autant pour l’aménagement du lieu que le service du personnel. Peu fidèle à la description : un accès aux chambres extérieur façon motel américain où les fenêtres donnent sur une coursive. Propreté impeccable, à part un cendrier avec un mégo sous ma fenêtre.

Très bon accueil, hôtel bien placé dans le centre ville
Chambre assez petite, salle de bain très petite , cabine de douche exiguë avec variation de température inopinée…
Insonorisation moyenne (planchers bois)
Petit déjeuner très bon et varié
Hôtel très bien situé pour visiter Cherbourg à pieds. Places de parking gratuites à proximité. Hôtel très propre (y compris chambre et sdb). Et personnels très sympathiques.
Das Frühstück ist nicht zu empfehlen. Man sollte besser in der Stadt frühstücken gehen.

Sans commentaires 😩
Chambre en pré paiement avec un courant d’air important car porte principal face au lit ne fermait pas correctement. Demande de changement de chambre et oui possible si surcharge de 10€ 😳 pas le choix ! No comment !
