Hotels Formule 1 France

I recently took a trip through France with my son; we took a ferry from Ireland landing in Cherbourg, and drove down through the centre of France on our way to visit Monte Carlo, then on to stay with my sister in Alicante…a last adventure in the old Landrover before he started college.

We had originally planned to do some camping, bought all camping equipment at a very reasonable price from Halford’s in Ireland, downloaded a great camping site app for the iPhone, and headed for Rosslare.

Unfortunately, the weather played against us on that first day, the heavens opened and we had torrential rain for the best part of three hours, it was obviously too wet to camp and so we decided to look for a hotel.

I had previously looked at the concept of Formule 1 hotels, writing a couple of posts for this blog, but I have never actually stayed in one.

I brought up Google maps on my iPhone, typed in “Formule 1 Hotel France” and was given 3 within easy driving distance.

I have to say that for the price, €29 on the first night, I found it to be clean, comfortable, convenient, and above all cheap.

You get the basics which is essentially a bed to sleep in, a wash basin in the corner, a television set, and a shared bathroom.

You can take advantage of a continental breakfast for €3 I think it was.

Suffice to say the camping took a back seat, after a day on the road there’s nothing like getting into a proper bed.

I would highly recommend Formule 1 hotels France to anyone who doesn’t mind not having all the bells and whistles, just a good night’s sleep.

Below is a list of all hotels Formule 1 France of which at the time of writing there are 278.
