Great location and the rooms were clean, good breakfast offered.
Pros:

The location was perfect. We walked from the train station to the hotel. We arrived early and they were able to store our luggage while we went to our tour location for Normandy. We all loved the surrounding area, stopping to have coffee and pastries right down the street. Our rooms were comfortable and clean. breakfast was delicious and many choices were offered. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

Bonnie Bayeux
Pros:

The location of the hotel is excellent being right in the centre with lovely restaurants, bars and shops. You are also by the cathedral which is about a 5 minutes walk away There is heating and air con in the room. There is also a nice shower.

Cons:

The staff were rather brisk and cold. The room was small. The view from our window was non-existent, being onto wire mesh on their roof and air con outlets: not very nice. Bath wash was not replenished for two people over a two night stay.There was an idiot in the room above us who decided to stomp and bang items around from 10.30pm for a good 30 minutes on our last night there. We appreciate that this was not the hotel's fault. But they were not proactive in ensuring the comfort of the other guests.

Excellent hotel to Explore Bayeux and Use as Base To Visit D-Day Beaches and Museums
Pros:

Very welcoming staff. Very nice suite in the annex. (Stay in annex!) Very good/popular outdoor/indoor restaurant at the hotel. Centrally located to explore Bayeux, visit D-Day landing beaches and museums, and Mont St.-Michel. Tours to the D-Day beaches and Mont St. Michel very conveniently leave right behind the hotel.

Cons:

No parking at the hotel. Parking is very tight in Bayeux. But able to find lots around the hotel to park the car. Have to walk up indoor stairs to suite, but not a big deal. For luggage, the very nice staff helped to carry up the luggage.

Highly recommend!
Pros:

Located in a beautiful part of Bayeux, it’s a short walk to several eating places in all directions. The Cathedral is very close and beautiful. Just step to the general meeting place for D-Day and St Michelle tours. Highly recommend.

Cons:

Our room was directly above the restaurant. The noise wasn’t too bad, it shuts down about 9:00. Funny thing, the awning motors were on our exterior wall and were a bit annoying being deployed about 7:00 each morning.

Pros:

Loved our room even though it was NOT the room we had originally booked. We had booked the room with the kitchenette so that we could eat in after a long day of touring. By the time I found my paperwork to confirm our initial booking, we decided to remain in our room which was very nice.

Great Location in Bayeux!
Pros:

Excellent location for the Normandy tours and reasonably close to the train station. The rooms are small, but comfortable. Be prepared to climb narrow stairs. The restaurant is very good, but the waitress we had did not like speaking English!

Cons:

Staff (some, not all) were not terribly friendly.
