Hotels in Hauts-de-France, France

Hauts-de-France is the northernmost region of France, known for its WWI battlefields like the Somme and the towering Gothic cathedral in Amiens. Summers are mild and sunny, ideal for hiking the white cliffs of the Opal Coast or cycling through the Flemish countryside, while winters are cool and damp, perfect for exploring Lille's covered markets and tasting local maroilles cheese in cozy brasseries. If you visit spring or fall, you'll find fewer crowds at the Vimy Memorial and cheaper train fares from Paris.
