WE en Normandie
Pros:

L''accueil est excellent, l'emplacement correspondait à nos attentes. Literie excellente. Nous en avons profité pour dîner sur place, le restaurant est au top et l'équipe très aimable et professionnelle, le restaurateur mérite amplement son étoile 🌟. Bravo M. Vautier.

Cons:

L'hôtel est un peu vieillissant. Mérite actuellement 3 étoiles et non plus 5. Nous voulions faire un SPA mais malheureusement, l'espace est fermé.

At best, this hotel would qualify as a three- to four-star property. It is nowhere near the standard one would expect fr
Pros:

One of the best restaurants I’ve ever dined at.

Cons:

Small room with a sloped ceiling and outdated furnishings. The bathroom facilities were below expectations for a five-star hotel.

Wellness hotel zonder wellness
Pros:

Dit hotel is goed gelegen en heeft een privé parking.

Cons:

We hadden het hotel geboekt omdat het een wellness had, maar bij aankomst bleek deze in renovatie te zijn. Dit was ons niet gemeld door het hotel en ook niet door Booking.com. Verder is alles nogal donker en heeft het hotel een opfrisbeurt nodig om echt 5* te behouden. Ook het 1* Michlin restaurant was gesloten. Hadden we dit allemaal geweten we hadden een ander wellness hotel geboekt

Disappointing.
Pros:

We had a one-night stay booked, with dinner in the restaurant. Smooth check-in, very helpful staff, and no problem parking. We turned on the TV, but not many channels were available, and we had a problem getting into the wi-fi, so we tried to phone reception to ask why, but found the room telephone was not working. My husband went down to reception, and the very nice chap there came up and removed the phone. This was around 4pm, and the phone was not replaced until after we had returned from dinner - around 10pm. Still no YouTube or many channels on the TV - but the following morning the lady on reception told us that there is a wi-fi problem in the area - so the hotel are aware of this, but still advertise a service which does not work properly. This was not a 5-star service by any means. On a positive note the room was very nice, and spacious, as was the bathroom.
