Novotel Thalassa Le Touquet

I stayed in two separate rooms in Novotel. Parking-view rooms are smaller and has a window that is slightly bigger than the size of a prison cell window. As soon as they have an availability on a sea-view room we switched. With floor-to-ceiling windows these rooms are like a sun parlor and are awesome to watch sunset. Sea-view rooms also have private balcony with chairs and a table. Having access to a balcony helps drying your beach stuff. Breakfast is served in the restaurant which has this great view of the Atlantic beach. Breakfast time falls on the low tide times and there are many people (and pets) enjoying a stroll. I loved sipping my coffee while watching this scene.

Parking/dune view rooms are not as pleasant. These rooms also provide no means to dry up your bathing suit, towels and anything wet, which is pretty common after a beach visit.

The location was amazing probably the best I have seen from a hotel room, stunning! The pool was quiet and refreshing. The food in the restaurant was great service incredible, breakfast is superb! The beach was so clean and accessible even for my disabled wife so impressed. The room was clean yet a little small for 3 of us. Overall we had a great few days away and would not hesitate to return or recommend. What a lovely location!

The room size for 2 adults and a 15 yr old is to small. Also no door to the shower room which meant we had to go on to the balcony while the 15 yr old could shower which was not a big deal as it was a beautiful view, but could be inconvenient if the weather is poor.

Swimming pool was lovely and a nice warm temperature. I expected more than just a steam room for the hammam but the mint aroma was nice. Good selection of towels! Views from room were lovely. Breakfast buffet had a good selection. The yogurts, fruits and purées were delicious and you could make your own boiled eggs which was fun. Free water bottles and refill stations were great also

Staff were sometimes a little rude. One lady in particular at breakfast. Some spoke good English but others didn’t speak any.

Location on beach, stunning views beachside Lots of seating areas to relax inside and seating outside Fantastic pool salt water / steam room and gym Beautifully furnished light and airy decor Good access for those with restricted mobility

Breakfast a little expensive Sat outside on terrace one night and when bar closed no way to get back into hotel , all the outside lights switched off had to walk along the beach pass both hotels and around to the front of the hotel Need to have rear access to hotel and perhaps make a real feature of terrace at night , heaters blankets on the chairs Hotels took substantial preauthorisation 500€ on checking in

The location is fantastic! Breakfast was also very nice, but we could not eat outside, which was disappointing.

I booked "dune view" and we looked into a concrete wall and the parking lot. The window hardly opened and the A/C didn't work. The staff were not very accommodating when we asked to pay more to upgrade. Early in the morning, we were brutally woken up by a beeping truck outside the window. Not very nice.

The hotel was stunning. It was on the beach, with bit of private beach overlooking the sea with tables, chairs and sun loungers directly outside the bar. We were given a free room upgrade so our room over looked the sea too. The room was very clean, had air conditioning and a fridge and it was very quiet. The indoor pool looked great but we didn't have time to try it

We were only there for one night, could've stayed longer.

Fantastic location right on the beach, the hotel decor was great, the pool a very nice surprise! We had dinner with a view (gorgeous sunset) and the food was really good.

Not impressed with the bar: the service was extremely slow and the staff very unfriendly which is such a shame because it’s a lovely setting. They could sell more drinks if they could be arsed!! In my opinion it lets the hotel down completely.

The seaview rooms with balcony, and the terraces on the beach are unique. The reception manpower is very friendly, the do their best to solve problems and to answer questions. Chapeau. nice people.

There is nationwide a logistic problem to find manpower. We know. But the restaurant was, in the 5 days that we stayed in the hotel, not available for us. Every question for a reservation for diner, everyday, was answered in an arrogant en not friendly way. problem.

Lovely staff, helpful and professional. Smooth check in. Great facilities, the pool is very useful considering we had bad weather so was a daily option. Restaurant was very good, we ate breakfast and there was good choice, great service and everything was clean and well presented. The hotel has been refurbished to a high standard, there is lots of natural light and it feels open and welcoming. The room was a little on the small side but we did not spend a great deal of time in there so it wasn't a problem.

The view from our room was outstanding. Situated right on the beach we had an uninterrupted view of beach, sea, sky. The breakfast was excellent and even accommodated my wife who requires a gluten free diet.

Not really anything could be improved, although on one night we did get a rowdy party that continued on until midnight in one of the rooms within close proximity. Not too sure the hotel could do anymore than ask them to quieten down, and that did seem to work.
