Halfway between the beaches and the port in the heart of town, the Best Western Plus Hotel Cargo, Dunkerque, France, welcomes guests aboard for a stay combining charm and serenity, its rooms styled on the world of maritime navigation for a feeling of comfort and warmth, with a bright café overlooking the town. The hotel makes an ideal base for exploring the city, a hundred metres from the great s

Dunkirk is a proud port city on the Flanders coast, rebuilt after the war around the harbour and the wide beach of Malo-les-Bains, with its memories of the 1940 evacuation, the fortified town of Bergues just inland, and the long dunes toward Bray-Dunes and the Belgian border close by. Out past the breakwaters, the big ships come and go on the grey northern sea.

"April 2026 Trip of a Life Time"
dawnbW8869OY, 09 Mai 2026

This place and the Staff totally knocked my socks off. We were able to check in early - so very early no where in the US would allow us to do such a thing. The customer service here was the very best I have ever experienced. The breakfast was the very best ever. We even were told ways to get around the city of Dunkirk free by bus. The rooms were so very comfortable. The bed was dreamy comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and tidy. I would totally go back to this hotel.

"Great Hotel - just needs a better breakfast"
Ivan T, 08 Octobre 2025

This hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of all the main attractions in Dunkirk. Our room was clean and comfortable, with high-quality bathroom amenities, and we slept very well. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming - attentive to both French and international guests - and their fluent English made communication easy. Wi-Fi worked perfectly throughout our stay. The only real shortcoming was breakfast. For a four-star hotel, the selection was quite limited. With a more varied and higher-quality breakfast, this property could easily be the best in town.

"Exceeded expectations but avoid the scrambled egg!"
secondrow, 09 Mai 2025

This centrally located Hotel exceeded expectations. The rooms are a decent size, clean and appear to be recently refurbished. Bathroom was a decent size .Parking is available on the street or in the underground garage. It offers outstanding value for money for tourists and budget travelers. The staff were friendly and efficient. The breakfast was Ok with a reasonable selection with fresh bread, cheese, ham, jams etc. Its self service which worked well. The quality of the hot dishes on offer was however disappointing. The powdered scrambled egg brewed in the microwave was horrendous. Best avoided.

"Great Hotel, great location :)"
Janine B, 12 Juin 2024

Lovely few days in June with my Hubby & Mum & Dad, over the 80th Anniversary of the D Day landings, great hotel, fab brekkie, great location aswell. Thank you to Malik & his staff whom were very friendly and helpful- Malik saved us when trying to get a Taxi back from the Harbour & they only spoke French 😀! My French was somewhat rusty from school days but he sorted it all for us :) brilliant job. Would highly recommend 👌
