Enjoyed Bayeux and would come again and more than likely stay in same hotel
Pros:

Room size was acceptable, bed was very comfortable, bathroom was of acceptable size and was clean. Breakfast was very good.
Location was great close to shops and restaurants. Hotel was very easy to find. Parking locally was easy (hotel parking see below} and was free from 7pm till 9am the following morning, and free on sundays.

Cons:

No parking at the hotel, but that was our choice. Local parking was easy to find and was close by.

Amazing, spectacular, loved it!
Pros:

I booked based on reviews and was NOT disappointed. We arrived around 9ish pm and was ordering an uber when we stepped outside train station and the hotel had a shuttle to pick us up. Pleasantly surprised. The restaurant at hotel was closed for the night and one of the servers walked across the street to a kebob restaurant to ensure they were still open and could service us which they did. Food was amazing. The front desk person walked us to our room and showed us where to place room key, a/c unit, etc. the best customer service we’ve ever experienced in a hotel.

Cons:

Not a thing!

Cosy spot in central Bayeux
Pros:

Great location, easy parking nearby (payable except on Sundays), shower and toilet were separate within the room. View of the Bayeux Cathedral from the sun window. A table and a chair to work or do travel admin. Sufficient space to open up two luggages on the floor. There is a wonderful breakfast cafe around the corner called Bisette serving waffles, breakfast rolls, and the best-frothed cafe latte we’ve had in France.

Cons:

An additional side table to place the coffee machine would have been better. A small rack to hang wet towels and clothes would have been helpful too. We had the “attic” room, so you need to watch your head, but it was charming.

Really disappointing
Pros:

We could check in at 3pm, some hotels like you later
We liked the gesture of body wash and moisturiser

Cons:

The hotel are aware and yet did nothing to help. We were really unhappy with the location of the room we were given, it was right by the front door and so very noisy with other guests coming and going. The phone in the room has a fault and kept going off all night with no one there until unplugged. The worst part was the air freshener in the room coming from either the air conditioning unit or vents, it was a sickly smell and very unpleasant, they were obviously trying to hide a smell, possibly damp we think.
I spoke to Tristan on reception that morning to explain our awful night, he was very defensive. I said we were not people who liked to leave bad reviews anywhere so would he give the message to Anne-Claire, the Manager and we will wait for her response first to give the hotel the right to answer. Nothing has been forthcoming but then again I didn't think it would. Avoid room 21 if you stay and check your room first before accepting it - we heard from another couple they were unhappy with their room.
