Delightful hotel and great value!
Pros:

Its location. It was really good value for money. Our room was tiny but really comfortable- we both slept really well. The receptionist was lovely.

Cons:

The restaurant. The food wasn’t great - I couldn’t actually cut my steak to eat it- and the staff were less friendly.

Should we make a return visit in the future, would absolutely return to stay at this hotel
Pros:

The entire staff at the hotel and restaurant were extremely nice and helpful. A big plus on the location and restaurant on site. The hotel is literally in the middle of all the action in town. Easy to get to all the Normandy D-Day sites and other cultural activities. There is also a laundromat a short distance away.

Cons:

The only negatives are the lack of parking near the hotel. They do not have any dedicated parking spaces but there are pay sites via meters. This was not a major issue but something they might want to consider working with the town in the future.

Wonderful!
Pros:

The staff was amazing and the rooms/bed were very comfortable. The room was super cozy.

Cons:

The ONLY thing I did not like was the fact that there was no elevator. Originally I was given a room on the 3rd floor. The lady at the front desk which was a sweetheart, was able to move me to the 1st floor.

Lovely time in Bayeaux, quaint little city, easy access to all the Normandy memorials and museums.
Pros:

The location was perfect, within easy walking distance to Cathedral & downtown. Finding parking for our vehicle was a bit difficult, luckily the Labor Day Holiday helped us out in that it was free to park in the pay lot. The room was a bit small, the shower tiny, but all in all a great value. Entire hotel, restaurant and patio were very clean, staff was quite helpful.

Cons:

Didn't realize that the holiday meant just about everything was closed, including most restaurants and shops.

Genoten in een heerlijk hotelletje in een sfeervolle omgeving
Pros:

Het hotel ligt zeer centraal in Bayeux met uitzicht vanaf het gezellige terras op de kathedraal. Zeer vriendelijke medewerkers in het hotel en in het restaurant/terras en er heerst een gemoedelijke sfeer. Het ontbijt is goed met een ruime keuze. Wij hebben genoten van de 2 dagen en hadden graag langer gebleven.

Cons:

N.v.t.
