High-end hotel located in the heart of Bayeux with an excellent breakfast.
Pros:

The hotel was impressive and the rooms expansive and well-equipped. The location was excellent for our trips to all of the D-Day beaches and museums, and a short walk netted us many places for dinner. The breakfast was fantastic including your typical European breakfast and other additional items such as Quiche Lorraine and a variety of fresh fruits.

Cons:

However, we found the headboards were not attached to the bed and banged against the wall every time I, or my wife turned over. In addition, my wife found the bed too hard, but Villa Lara supplied additional bedding that made the bed tolerable for her. In addition, we were "shooed" away from the outdoor setting areas while enjoying a local favorite - Calvados - because we hadn't purchased it through the hotel. The initial reasoning was licensing, and had her explanation stopped there, we would not have questioned the interaction. However, she went on to say that if we became so inebriated that an ambulance was necessary (that has NEVER happened to me or my wife in our lifetimes), they needed to know EXACTLY what and how much we had imbibed, then went on to say that they would refuse serving us if we appeared too inebriated. This explanation defies reasoning as how would they react if they found us unconscious in the hallway? Would they refuse to call an ambulance because they don't know what, or how much, we had drunk? This was a totally unnecessary interaction to this degree, and could have been handled by simply stating it was a licensing issue (which I highly doubt as we did the same thing at other hotels we stayed at in France).

Villa Lara is perfect!
Pros:

Villa Lara was a wonderful choice for our brief stay in Bayeux. The hotel staff was absolutely wonderful, especially Mariel, the concierge. We arrived late, so we ate the buffet dinner at the hotel. It was perfect, so much so that we ate there again the second night. The staff contacted us when we left an item of clothing behind; so kind and efficient!

Cons:

There is nothing that could be improved at this hotel.

Pros:

The staff was incredible in every way! Room, shower, location all outstanding! Best shower I have ever had in Europe, over 100 stays.

Cons:

Have a wall dispenser for all the products in the shower, not just the wash.

Exceptional hotel to thoughtfully elevate your visit without pretentiousness.
Pros:

Staff was exceptional from first greeting to loading our rental car and saying goodbye. They anticipated our needs and acted quickly while being very friendly.
Room was large, elegant, and tastefully decorated. Bed and bedding was comfortable. Breakfast was delicious.
The location was also perfect as the guided tours for DDay picked up across the lawn from the lobby. We travel a lot and we will stay here again.

Cons:

Nothing
