The northern region of France is packed full of gorgeous towns, historical sites and cultural experiences that would make any national proud to be French. What it lacks in warm, sunny days by the beach, it more than makes up for in character. Finding a great place to stay in the region is easy with an abundance of great hotels to suit all budgets. Northern France hotels also offers several other options to add a sense of charm and sophistication to your stay. Several chateaus, cottages and gites are available for tourists to rent at reasonable prices.

Hotels

Anyone on nearly any budget can find a good, clean and comfortable place to stay in northern France. Everything from hostels to the most well-known luxury line of hotels are available to choose from. Prices and levels of amenities will vary according to season and company. However, families and singles will have no problem finding something suited to their needs.

Cottages

To add to the overall French experience, why not stay in one of the beautiful cottages that are open to tourists to rent. Throughout the northern France region there are thousands of options in all shapes and sizes. Cottages range from detached single dwellings to those featuring several rooms. Many have been restored to their former glory and have been in existence for over 300 years. Cottages are fully equipped with kitchen services to cut down on the costs of eating out and are generally rented on a week-to-week basis with discounts added in for longer stays.

Chateaus

For a taste of how the French aristocracy once lived, booking a stay in a French chateau can leave you feeling like royalty. Several options are available throughout the area with smaller chateaus of approximately 20 rooms for that quaint and charming touch. For those who want to experience the sheer splendor of how that level of society lived, there are large, grand chateaus available that have well over 100 rooms. Most chateaus are quite reasonably priced and prices are comparable to hotels in the moderate to high range.

Gites

A "gite" is a French term for a kind of "out" building. They are commonly found on old farmhouses and larger estates. Several gites have been converted into small gatehouses that are available to rent out. Services will vary but most will be fully self- catering with all the basic amenities.
