Hotel Recour

Spacious comfortable rooms - very good food

Seems to fall short of its upmarket aims - some outstanding maintenance needed in room - not good value when compared to all other stops on this trip

I liked the hospitality and friendliness

The location of this hotel is great, and we were welcomed very politely by the young man on reception and his younger sister showed us to our room as he had broken his leg so was in plaster! We had booked one of the more expensive rooms in the old building and although the suite was sprawling it was apparent that it could do with a bit of maintenance. The mosaic tiles were starting to come off the shower floor (the shower head and pressure were brilliant) and the jets in the hydro bath didn't work. The breakfast selection was massive, and there was definitely something for everyone. We were offered breakfast on our terrace one morning due to the low occupancy of the hotel (Sunday night), and we had a huge trolley of food brought to us which we thoroughly enjoyed. The location of the hotel allowed us to walk the two minutes into the town square where there are plenty of restaurants to enjoy, if you don't eat at the hotel.

Good although a couple of lights didn’t work and because the restaurant wasn’t open then there were no other facilities

Das Hotel ist schön gelegen und gemütlich. Corona-Pandemie Maßnahmen werden sehr gut befolgt und man fühlt sich sicher. Auch das Personal ist freundlich. Der Zustand der Zimmerausstattung könnte verbessert werden (Heizung im Badezimmer, Dampfbad, Hauptwasserzufluss in der Badewanne, einige Steckdosen funktionierten alle nicht). Trotzdem ein schönes Hotel.

Hôtel à la hauteur de mes attentes

Was a very big, clean room with a massive shower & bath. However, it wasn’t made clear that the room I booked would be out in a separate building. I was a little disappointed as I was hoping to stay in the quaint hotel building. Apart from that, nice place.

Warm welcome and fab room (No 6) on the top floor (which we requested) with oak cruck beams & exposed brickwork plus large bathroom with roll-top bath and separate shower. This surpassed our expectations. The dining experience overall was not so good, although the food itself was very good, but hugely overpriced. The (female) maitre d' had a bossy, superior manner which grated on us. The cheapest wine was a mediocre Shiraz at 30E. The restaurant was in three classically elegant rooms, but we were led through two superior-looking ones into what seemed like an overflow room with a big empty table in the middle and no atmosphere. Only another English couple and a young Belgian (we think) couple were in there. Even though we had ordered at 8pm for our booking at 8.30, it was 9pm when we were sent (not taken) to our table and service was so slow we left at 10.45, having only had two courses. She then insisted we pay (169E for two courses) before leaving, even though we were resident.- no charging to the room. Breakfast was in a modern, self-service cafeteria in an adjacent building, and was an ok cold buffet, but not worth 17E We would not return or reccomend Hotel Recour.

A very charming small hotel in the lovely town of Poperinge. Our room was olde world yet modern with all the mod cons including air con and jacuzzi bath plus super king size four poster bed- very comfortable.

Checking in was a little haphazard but once we made contact staff were helpful. The building is seventeenth century and the room was delightfully furnished to reflect its age though the adjoining door to the ensuite bathroom was flimsy. Breakfast was very good. The restaurant is separately run and therefore the evening meal should be paid for at the time.
