Lovely place
Lovely room and easy walking distance from the train station (15 min.) Lots of restaurants in the area, including a FABULOUS Indian place about 8 min away.
The only thing we weren’t thrilled with was the pillows on the bed. They were very lumpy and uncomfortable. I ended up folding the extra blanket up to use as a pillow.

The staff were excellent! Very friendly and helpful. The room was small but ok but could have done with a fan or some air con as quite warm. Good choice at breakfast and good location for getting around.

We had two sleepless nights. The very loud outside noise only finished near to 4am on one night and 5am the next. After the first night we asked for a room move to the rear and were told we would be charged more. I would avoid this hotel. The only redeeming feature was the parking.

Nice hotel on a quiet street. Beds comfy and breakfast really good with a great selection.
A short walk to the main part of Caen, with great restaurants and bars.
Also not too far from public transport hubs and car hire.
One minor gripe. The toilet/shower room door was opaque glass that if you are not a couple can cause embarrassment!

Room was very small and dated but clean. Staff was friendly and polite. Location was excellent (close to the train station and transit). A fan in the room would have been nice to help cool it down.

After a horrendous journey from CDG to Cannes, I was too late to check-in to the hotel, so slept overnight in the car. Reception opened at 7 am & they were very sympathetic & I checked-in straight away. Room was fine, although curtains would have been preferable to the voiles on the windows. Too much light & flashing blue lights outside didn't help. Breakfast was very good. Staff excellent.

Bathroom drain smelled terrible. Hotel was aware because they had room window open to try to address.
Had to sleep four nights with the window wide open.
Noise from night club across the street every night until 6am.

This hotel was ideally positioned near the river and a short walk from the Castle. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The rooms were compact but included everything we needed. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel for a stay in Caen.
