I'll second that 
A good spot for an overnight stop, just to take a chunk out of France the evening before heading south or to break a journey heading north.
Sadly it's just a bit too far to be useful to me if I catch an evening train over, the damned lost hour (thank you Scotland) screwing it up, or I'd use it more.

Agreed its a good place to stop for a night and about 1.5 hours from the channel tunnel port maybe a bit less. Hotel is clean and tidy and has a lovely French vibe to it. Plus a few pubs in the main square about 200 metres away. Am staying there again in july.

That's useful to know. Away with my son next week for 10 days in France.We are always wondering where to stop the evening before catching the train back.
Le Florence is a regular first or last night stop for us. Brilliant value, parking and location

Thumbs up from me as well. Even let me park the RT under the courtyard archway as heavy rain was forecast when we stayed there last year. Loved the very french feel. Look for the ancient plate warming radiator in the breakfast room. If a light sleeper ask for a room at the back.

Excellent, stopped there last night another bite into France this time in my smart car, yes I like the plate warmer also.
From the number of posts from Tossers who stay there on a regular basis and who all recommend the place, perhaps the hotel should be awarded a "Friends of Tossers' and a "Highly recommended by Tossers".

La Troubadour seems highly rated on trip advisor and is just round the corner by the looks of it. Not sure the hotel does evening meals
Last year we ate at le Rouget Noir. The mrs had Steak Tartare and though it was really good if you are into that sort of thing.

I was there again a few weeks back
secure parking round the back (the hotel is deceptive large considering the front).
not sure why theyve put a giant sand pit in the square...

Whilst there are lots of reasonably priced restaurants up on the main square, I noticed that there is quite a good Italian restaurant built into the same block as the hotel.
It's bang on the corner, to the right of the hotel, when viewed from the front.
It was very busy last Saturday night, for sure. So, it might be worth booking a tabe if you have a larger group.
