We had a lovely stay at the hotel. Special thanks to Aurelie. She made the extra effort to help my wife who did not feel well when we arrived at the hotel. Thank you so much Aurelie.

The hotel was ideally located in the centre of Caen. Caen is very nice, with plenty of restaurants and shops. Driving in the region is good, with little traffic if you are exploring the D-Day beaches. The hotel was very clean and the staff very friendly and helpful. I arrived early morning from the overnight ferry and they allowed me to use the bathroom to get washed ahead of my afternoon check in.

Surrounded by the countryside of Normandy, Caen is a proud city which pays poignant tribute to its past. It suffered greatly during World War II and although most of the structures have been carefully restored, one monument remaining partly in ruins is Saint-Étienne-le-Vieux church.
The church is across from a floral park overlooked by the stately 11th-century Abbaye aux Hommes, built by William the Conqueror, who is also buried there. His wife is buried in the equally grand Abbaye aux Dames by an even larger park to the east. Between the 2 lies another of William’s creations, the remarkably intact 11th-century Norman castle which now houses museums of Normandy history and fine art.
Another unmissable museum is the Memorial for Peace, a sensitive portrayal of the horrors of war, with particular emphasis on the D-Day landings on beaches north of the city. One road leading there passes Pegasus Bridge and the large Caen-Ouistreham passenger ferry port. The city is also served by Carpiquet Airport and a train station.
The surrounding streets are lined with shops and restaurants, and there are a few half-timbered buildings dotted around. The bars on Rue Ecuyére offer some of the best nightlife and are popular with the large student population.
Booking.com’s range of Caen accommodations includes luxury hotels, cheap B&Bs and apartments with parking.

The city is friendly and it is easy and cheap to get around using public transport. There are good restaurants, we can highly recommend Le Carlotta, great food, wine and a warm welcome.
Tips for visiting Normandy sites.
We used the 12 bus to visit Pegasus Bridge and Ranville Cemetery. Do not get on the 12 EX as this is the express bus and does not use the same route!
However, reaching the British Memorial at Ver-Sur-Mer from Caen in September proved impossible on public transport and a taxi was needed.

We mainly stayed in Caen for the Ferry crossing to the UK.
We mainly stayed in Caen for the Ferry crossing to the UK.
There are many places to visit and a short drive to
Ouistreham and the D Beaches, which we found very interesting to visit and a big part of history.
In Caen at the top to the right of the Chateau/castle there is a court place area of beautiful restaurants, a bit hidden away, worth finding.

It was an awesome place in the heart of the city with a lot of things to do and to explore around. We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was perfectly sized for a short trip, it was clean and well organized. The host provided all required information proactive and responded quickly to any questions we had.

There is enough to see an do for at least a good three/four day stay. Lots of great museums and churches to visit. We ate in the old part of the city which was lovely and the food and atmosphere were great. There seems to be great public transport and a free tourist bus. We were also lucky enough to catch the large Sunday market.

Caen has got everything. A racetrack, a canal with boats.
Caen has got everything. A racetrack, a canal with boats. The resting places of both William the conqueror and Maltide his wife. A museum that details the bombardment in World war two in photographs and objects is housed in the Hotel de Ville. It is a modest collection, but all the better for that. Caen was bombed extensively in the war, entirely by allied bombing. There is a city bus line 6a and 6b that takes you all around the city, in a circular route, so you can get everywhere easily.

Would have loved to spend more time wandering the streets,...
Would have loved to spend more time wandering the streets, as we only really had one full day to explore.
Loved the Abbey des Hommes where tomb of William the Conquerer is, could have spent more time exploring this site.
Seemed to be lots of inviting restaurants, so again if we'd stayed longer could have tried out a lot more of what was on offer.
Caen is a delightful city. The hotel is right at the center, with commerce, shopping and eateries at walking distance.
Good, safe parking around the corner.
We made driving trips to Omaha Beach and Bayeux and they were very closeby.
Varied cuisine around the area.
We must comment on the staff: simply exceptional. One staff member made suggestions for stops on the rest of our trip, and they were right on! We were on our way to Mont Dt Michel and she suggested stops on the coast along the way. They were truly memorable!
The staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel was on the edge of a nice neighborhood about a 30 minute walk to the center of town. The restaurant at the hotel had wonderful food. We also tried the Pizza Bus just across the street for a lighter meal and a few smaller grocery stores within a 10 minute walk to get a sandwich or snack. Plenty of free parking spaces and spots to charge electric cars too. We stayed here 4 nights as a base to explore Normandy and it was perfect for that.
Wonderful boutique hotel in the center of Caen. Each room is individually styled. The decoration and general ensemble of the room we had was incredibly tasteful and gave a cozy and romantic feeling. It's the kind of place where you wish to linger and not just use it as a room with a bed for the night. The hotel is basically a renovated historical building and the owners did a very good job in keeping up the vibe, without losing comfort and a certain feeling of luxury.
Nice hotel in a rather quiet business area, plenty of parking space. Within a driving distance to Caen city center, excellent location for motorized travelers. Rooms are good and all the staff very helpful and professional. Swimming pool is slightly cold, but good for swimming, which is a really nice after a long day of walking/exploring. We also enjoyed their restaurant, which serves very good food. Book a table for dinner in the morning to get a seat.
The staff were very helpful. We had assumed that we would be able to park at the hotel but as we had not booked this in advance the parking was full. Fortunately as it was a Sunday the receptionist helpfully advised us that we could park for free nearby. As we were leaving the following morning this suited us. The same helpful receptionist gave us a good recommendation for dining out as we wanted to explore Caen a little. The breakfast was very good.
The location is the best thing about this hotel. It's right in the centre of town. What's more, there are restaurants and a carrefour just next door. The bus/train station is a 15-minute walk away. The room itself seemed newly refurbished and very simply decorated, nothing spectacular. The bathroom is a tad small but not at all uncomfortable. Fortunately we were on the second floor so climbing the stairs wasn't too difficult.
The hotel is a little far out from places it’s in the middle of a being built new area, the area itself doesn’t have much to do bar going shopping at a supermarket. But I’m sure once they build it up more there will be more to do? It was two bus rides from the ferry port to get to, but a comfortable walking distance to Caen owning that Sunday buses are every three hours!
Fabulous. Loved the place. Large comfortable room. Spotlessly clean. Great bathroom and facilities. Tasty breakfast with lots of choice, all fresh. On site parking. Helpful friendly staff. Loved all modern style of hotel, different but it certainly works! Short drive to fantastic Caen and it's restaurants and sites. Would most definitely stay again!
Clean, must be very new since nothing is broken or damaged, friendly staff, microwave and refrigerator in the room, walking distance to the Caen memorial museum, big and free parking, nearby restaurants and grocery store.
Room is as big as one would expect from this type of budget hotels. A proper Vale for money.
The hotel's location is marvelous for those traveling by train - only 2 blocks from the entrance to the main train station in Caen. Our room was reasonably large and very well maintained. We loved the buffet breakfast - there were many choices of food and everything we tried was fresh and tasty.
The hotel is conveniently located opposite Caen train station.
It is a cheap, basic hotel and was acceptable for one night as we were passing through Caen.
We were leaving early and they were able to accomodate that for us.
Easy to find on the outskirts of Caen, secure parking as on a motorcycle. Near to a good restaurant as recommended by the hotel. Always the same good standard as others in the chain.
Prime location, close to everything we needed, including the tram network. Tram connection to the train station was easy, from the hotel. The hotel staff was helpful, and friendly.
Nice location, very nice owner. Towels are home washed, so they smell good. Coffee was available until 22:00, in other hotels only available during breakfast.
Location in the center of Caen. Very clean and big room for very small pirce. Now im staying in the Mercure hotel and, really, dont see big difference.
