Lille, Flanders & the Somme
Pass beneath a lobby chandelier made entirely of white feathers to reach this hotel's 25 uniquely decorated rooms, which sport 1960s-inspired furnishings and fabrics. Higher-priced rooms come with large windows overlooking the bay; street-facing rooms can be noisy due to the cobblestones. Breakfast (€11) includes fresh fruit and pastries. Family rooms sleep up to four; baby cots are available.
Its waterfront restaurant specialises in local produce.
