Best Western Hôtel Royal Picardie  

Internet service was terrible. Do not stay here if you really need access to internet.

Excellent location for visiting the Somme battlefields and the Circuit of Remembrance.

At 12 Euros breakfast is way overpriced. We payed extra for a superior room which was just the same size as all the others except it had a Queen sized bed. The bathroom is small. Considering this is a 3 star Hotel, there only ever seemed to be one member of staff on duty at a time to wait tables, serve in the bar and manage Reception etc.

Quiet, parking was easy. Relaxing bar area.

Internet wasn't working, furnishings a bit tired, breakfast expensive and ordinary.

When exploring the Somme battlefields, there are very few accommodation options. Bw Picardie suited us quite well. The rooms were clean and adequate, although a bit dated and more expensive than some nicer places we stayed elsewhere in France during our 3 weeks. The downstairs lounge was a wonderful place to catch up before dinner. Parking was very useful. Breakfast was a very large selection with good coffee.

24 hr front desk for late check-in convenient, free parking and internet was good.

Cleaning staff tried to access the room early in the morning without knocking while we were still there. Thankfully the chain was in place otherwise they would have just walked in.

We had our 11 year old grandson with us for a tour of the Somme Battlefields and as he is vegetarian they very kindly made an omelette for him and included it in the children's menu.

comfortable lounge, helpful staff and very good food. highly recommended

When we stayed there was a very noisy event taking place in the restaurant which continued until 1am!

The hotel was well located with good access to the town of Albert and the war memorials situated on the Somme.

There is no air-conditioning in the room itself but there is in the main areas.

Having to buy breakfast for 12 euro extra and not a lot of choice and a long way out of town centre.evening menu expensive and not a lot of choice if you wanted something light to eat

Staff were polite. Restaurant and public areas clean. Excellent car parking.Excellent location for WW1 Battlefields.

The hotel was expensive (to book). Meals were very expensive, we ate elsewhere. Albert offers very little facilites, I had a cup of coffee served in a saucepan!!. No decent restaurants or cafes.

we only staid one night, to sleep and to get an urly start next morning.

we astked for a wake-up call, but they forget it, and breakfast at 6 o clock was not ready!!!

Clean, crisp bed linen and good pillows. Clean fluffy towels in rooms. Nice and warm. We had a good bottle of wine here - but it was pricey.

The food was terrible. There was a buffet starter but it was very limited choice. Our vegetables and side dishes were cold, my fish tasted muddy and unclean. The cheese selection was limited and there were no biscuits or condiments to go with. The pastry desserts were dry. Four of us ate a four course menu and only one of us enjoyed the meal. Three of us were very disappointed. After this meal we decided not to have brekafast. The drinks were very expensive. The spirits they served were cheap and nasty tasting alternatives to what we asked for i.e Baileys was not a Baileys. The brandy tasted like paint stripper. Pints were ok but very expensive. The reading lamps in our bedroom did not work. There was no sugar in the complimentary tea and coffee tray in our room and very little milk, only enough for one cup. This hotel does not offer value for money. The quality of the food is poor, I will not recommend.
