Camping de Châlons-en-Champagne

The staff were very friendly. They also speak German! The sanitary facilities in some areas were dirty.

Never again! Don't know how this site got the stars. According to the ADAC app, the site has a swimming pool, I didn't see one, also no discount with the ADAC Campcard. The site seems poorly maintained.

The place is easy to reach, the space assignment is quick and uncomplicated, and the spots are shady. We were only guests here for a stopover on our journey.

The place is actually very nicely designed with the trees and hedges. However, it is a bit aged. This is especially true for the sanitary facilities. Old, scruffy, and despite the cleaning, not really clean and inviting. The food in the snack bar is good. It was quiet for us too. The seasonal workers probably haven't come yet. I absolutely cannot understand the 4 stars or flowers and the recommendation as a super place. For a night as a stopover it's just okay, but unfortunately not more.

We were at this place last night too. I can only agree with the previous reviews. The operator should decide whether to make his money with harvest workers or campers. Both cannot go on like this! The sanitary facilities were underground poorly and not equipped to handle the influx of at least 300 workers. The 4 stars at the entrance were probably awarded 35 years ago. The food at the kiosk was also inedible and completely overpriced.

Sanitary facilities are completely rundown. The facilities are not designed for the number of harvest helpers. The sinks are black, not from dirt, but from age and wear. There was also no warm water for rinsing. There was a smell of feces in the air the whole time, from 4:00 PM until 7:00 AM this morning. An inexplicable power outage had no consequences for us, as we wanted to leave very early after the night with the dirty toilets.

I can only agree with the last review. Harvest workers who are accommodated here, with the accompanying noise in the evening, are unable to use the sanitary facilities because by 6 PM the harvest workers occupied everything. An estimated 200-300 people. In the morning, it became very loud again starting at 5 AM. The large buses kept their engines running and loudly the harvest workers went back for pickup. They also walked past the campsite sniffling and spitting and shouting, even though they were accommodated in a completely different corner. It is currently just after 6 AM. No sleep since 5 AM, and I only fell asleep after midnight yesterday and today still have a few hundred kilometers ahead of us. This was not the point of this overnight stay. Never again.

We had booked the place for a stopover. When we arrived with our motorhome, we were informed that it could get noisy at the site because many seasonal workers who were harvesting the champagne grapes would be staying there. We agreed because there was no alternative place in the village. Where were we supposed to go? It was very loud! Loud music, talking, shouting, noise until late into the night! The sanitary facilities were completely overwhelmed by this influx. This is not how we pictured our last vacation evening! If we had been informed about this at the time of booking, we certainly would not have booked this site. Fortunately, our ordeal was over after one night! Never again!
