Lovely overnight stay

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.

Liked: Amenities
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.

Séjour horrible au Moderna de Cherbourg

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.
