France Travel Lodge??

Hi
Anyone got any ideas about places to stay along the motorways in france? Especially between Calais and Lille/Paris.
Any useful websites would be appreciated too

Has anyone driven from Calais to the South of France?
If so, whats the journey like? How long etc.

Thanks

Re: France Travel Lodge??

i drive france 3 times a year normally and stay in reasonable priced hotels off the motorways situated at nearly every major town........
www.fasthotel.com and www.villages-hotel.com are two types of great accomodation for about £20 - £25 quid a night
try www.accorhotels.com as well because they do all the full range of hotel rooms from £10 a night to about £75 a night..all excellent
all in all roadside hotels put ours to shame in all ways (apart from full english brekky)
if you have time take the Route Nationales rather than the motorways , apart from the fact they are free , they are more scenic.
the drive is long but great.....avoid the peripherique on a friday or saturday morning apart from that the roads are bliss all the way through france

Re: France Travel Lodge??

just got back from france agree with atomic 22 avoid the peripherique around paris. But would add most days at rush hour, look at expedia .com for suitable hotels/motels

Formula 1 hotels are normally quite cheap and easy to find off main roads...
