Like other reviewers, we were on a tour of the Picardy battlefields. Although not absolutley central to the Somme area, Arras is a good base, as is the Hotel. It is more than basic - clean and comfortable with good amenities. Breakfast is ample: the usual continental favourites and one 'hot dish' which was scrambled eggs while we were there.... More

This hotel came as group tour package, but I did pre book the night before the tour commenced at $200 AUD for one night. I make my comments based on the value commensurate with cost. This hotel is an old building therefore I have made allowances in my comment for this but generally the service is quite poor. There's is... More

Arras makes a good base for visiting a number of important and interesting WW1 sites, and the Hotel Moderne provides a comfortable no-frills base. The room was bright and airy and bed and bathroom adequate and clean. Breakfast buffet was very good; cereals, fruit, juice,croissants etc. with hot drinks and and a hot dish available. Very good value for this... More

We had a spacious, comfortable room with wide-opening windows and a big bathroom. Everything worked well and was immaculately clean. We wondered if noise might be a problem as it's two minutes from the station and adjacent to several bars/restaurants. No problem whatsoever and we slept well. The staff we encountered were all friendly and helpful. The corridor outside the... More

We only stayed at Hotel Moderne for one or two nights (April 2010) on our tour of France. It's conveniently located across from the train station, which was great because we were on foot with all our luggage. The hotel seemed a little cramped, and it was honestly kind of like a maze..We were in the halls a bit trying... More
