A wonderful stay in the centre of Caen. The hotel is quaint clean and the room was spacious and lovely. We had a good fan, a welcome addition during the heatwave. A lovely view into Caen and close to restaurants and touristic attractions. We highly recommend!
This hotel is great! Only one thing I want to mention is the shower booth that the bottom of the glass door’s packing is off, as a result almost of the water from shower leak to the bathroom floor.
The room was very big nice and clean.
A small cooker for making tea and coffee would be perfect but just a small enhancement.
Parking is a bit cumbersome as you have to park in the street
Overall a pleasant experience. The room is spacious and has a nice character. The location is great, just few steps from the pedestrian city centre area.
Overall the room was clean but not spotless clean ( I made the mistake to put my bag over the wardrobe…. And lots of dust came down). In general I would say great value for money

My wife was having some medical issues and it was really difficult for her to climbed three flights of stairs. After explaining my situation to the manager he was unwilling to give us a room on the bottom floor. Parking is really difficult to find if you get back late.
Hotel tres bien situé à 2 pas du chateau. La chambre sur la cour interieure etait bien, la salle de bain un peu petite mais fonctionnelle. Bon rapprt qualite / prix.
Très bon hôtel, super accueil, chambre spacieuse et secteur proche de tout, je recommande vivement cet hôtel !

Peut mieux faire
Il n'y a rien a dire sur la propreté. Le bémol est plutôt axé sur l'aspect pratique : l'hotel n'est pas équipé de clim mais le ventilateur ne peu pas être branché ailleur qu'au près du lit, de plus j'aurais aimé dormir avec les fenêtres grandes ouvertes mais du coup je ne pouvais pas fermer les rideaux.
L'espace des sanitaires est un peu limité notamment pour l'usage des wc.
Le choix des denrées salées pour le petit déjeuner est à mon goût un peu limité : jambon blanc industriel, une seule sorte de fromage, pas d'oeuf.
El cecepcionista muy hamable y cordial, hablaba español. Enseguida nos facilito un plano de la ciudad y mos señalo los sitiosas emblemáticos para visitar.
perfectamente.
La estancia de tres noches fué perfecta, aunque solo ibamos a dormir. Nos gustaria volver.
Très bonne literie, chambre bien conçue, personnels accueillant, serviable et à l'écoute. c'est le point fort de l'hôtel ainsi que le prix !
merci à vous
Deux inconvénients, la sonorisation de l'hotel, parois très fine, on attend très bien les conversations des voisins ainsi que les ronflements. dalles en bois ?
l'absence de parking à l'hotel est aussi un inconvénient
Un accueil bienveillant et personnalisé ! Aux petits soins pour ma fille étudiante qui passait ses partiels juste à côté. Idéalement situé entre le centre ville, la fac et le tram. Elle y retourne pour les prochains examens, c’est sûr !
