La Basilique

Lille, Flanders & the Somme


In the heart of Albert, right across the square from the basilica, this well-kept hotel has 10 neat rooms with French windows, bright bathrooms and richly patterned feature walls. The in-house restaurant specialises in cuisine du terroir (regional specialities made with quality local ingredients) such as duck breast with sour-cherry sauce (two-/three-course menus €18/22). Breakfast costs €10.
