A bit like a car hotel. It is very convenient to stay. Not far from a large supermarket. There is also a Chinese buffet nearby. But the only inconvenience to drive is that the second-class needs to take the stairs. It is not convenient to drag the luggage. There is no elevator.

Our hotel rooms are getting smaller as we travel out of Paris. This was a nice place, clean, and right next to the motorway with no visual restaurants nearby. Looked to be sandwiched between the motorway and the residential area. We did have an included dinner with our tour and the meal was so so. We then had a nice breakfast the next morning. Nothing too elaborate but enough to get you going for the day of travel.

Pros Good stopover hotel, we have stayed several times and rooms are now being refurbished to a good standard for this type of chain. Although on an industrial estate it’s quiet. Plenty of casual seating space although it does get busy when coach parties arrive. Good parking which is said to be secure although on our latest visit the gate was left open all day, on previous visits we needed a code to leave, not this time. Restaurant food is good, service ok. Cons Bar management is rude and impolite, and seems to be independent of the hotel and it was odd to be offered a “special price” for food items on the bar menu. Overall a good stay with minor areas of improvement needed.

Now let’s be honest, this is a budget hotel with 2 stars, so there are things that you won’t get here that you will with a 3 or 4 star, such as tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms, a smaller shower cubicle, a restaurant. However, as a hotel that provides, exceedingly clean rooms, and bathrooms, has a very decent breakfast room with a very acceptable petit dejeuner, lovely coffee and the most friendly and helpful staff such as Cedric on the reception. This really is a top rated lovely little hotel. It’s in a convenient area for restaurants and shops, and the centre, it has excellent parking which is very safe and a very nice outside seating area, where we had a bottle of champagne and soaked up the sun. Whilst the hotel does not have a restaurant, it is able to provide pizzas and which we partook of when we couldn’t be bothered to walk up to the restaurants. Cedric provided this, which was probably microwaved, but it was hot and crispy (no soggy bottoms here) and delicious. He also, upon noticing we had brought a bottle of wine, provided, without being asked, 2 wine glasses. The free Wi-Fi, in this hotel is the best we have experienced in any hotel, no glitches. Only a 10 mile drive from Ouistreham for the ferry back to Portsmouth, absolutely ideal location for doing a bit of sightseeing before going home. We were here for 2 nights and will be booking this hotel again for our next trip to France.

This hotel was exactly what we wanted! It was welcoming, friendly, efficient and clean. The rooms were plenty large and clean, and newly decorated. The breakfast was great - plenty of variety and choice, all great quality. We had dinner in the hotel for 3 nights. It was freshly cooked, tasty and reasonably priced. Stefan served us and made us very welcome. All staff were friendly and very competent. Its location was perfect for us. Easy from the port. The tram is very close for getting into Caen so you don’t need to drive. Close to the roads to visit the D-day beaches and other historic sites. We had no complaints and would return

Hotel in a quiet area, very decent bedding, possibility of making a small coffee or small kitchen. We appreciated the small terrace for the rooms on the ground floor. A little far from the city center of Caen, especially when you have walked a lot during the day, we advise you to park at the marina where there are many parking spaces. Excellent restaurant in the Vaugueux district: avenue 21. In the evening, numerous bars on rue Ecuyere and place Saint Sauveur. Lively town center, numerous shops.

My son booked 2 rooms 1 superior room and 1 double. Arrived could not get in. Finally someone opened the door, then we found envelopes with keys left on the side. Not a great start. Went up to the room and the room next to us had at least 12 people in shouting and screaming, however onwards in to the room. The smell as we entered was of urine, it stunk, the toilet was leaking, the balcony was disgusting and also stunk of urine. The arguing next door was getting worse, I opened the door and there was 2 men fighting, it was now feeling very unsafe we decided to just leave. It actually looked like a immigration centre , there were cars in the car park with various men in who were clearly selling stuff by the amount of people coming out of the immigration centre to go to them. Not a safe feeling for my family. The photos on the internet have clearly been photo shopped as they don’t give a true reflection of the actual rooms. Would not recommend to my worst enemy. Booked another hotel in Caen the Ibis at an extra cost of £350.00 but what the hell, at least we was safe

I liked this small, friendly hotel. The rooms had been refurbished and on arrival, were clean and welcoming and amply big enough for short stays. There was a pleasing variety of food on the Continental breakfast and I can recommend the delicious scrambled egg! The evening meal always featured a cold buffet which was a useful addition to the set menu. I found the choice of dishes to be adequate, and the meals were well cooked. I was particularly impressed that, when our Coach party left round 5 am, there was breakfast laid out for us, same as any other day. Full marks to the hotel for this. Facilities to make tea would have been welcome as I’m not a coffee-drinker and wished I had taken my travel kettle and maybe another shelf space for clothes? I stayed three days and enjoyed my stay. Full marks to the helpful, pleasant staff.

Located in the center of Caen, very clean and quiet
