Etap is a European chain of basic-service budget hotels owned by the Accor Group. There are several branches in major cities and close to transport hubs like the Eurotunnel terminal in Coquelles. The chain competes with chains like Holiday Inn Express and Travelodge in Europe and the UK. Etap will be rebranded "Ibis Budget" beginning in 2011 with completion by 2013.

The rooms are simply furnished and in most cases the walls are whitewashed. Rooms typically contain amenities such as a small desk, television (sometimes with cable/international channels, depending on the location), a double bed or a double with a bunk bed, a shower, a basin and a toilet. In some locations the rooms and entrance have coded locks. Some rooms may also have Wi-Fi. A towel and a bar of soap come as standard, with other toiletries for purchase at the reception. Items such as ironing boards and irons are normally available for hire.

All Etap hotels have a breakfast area, a reception (manned 24 hours a day in the UK, however elsewhere this varies) and, at some locations, an automatic reception for out of hours check-ins.
