"Our party of 8 travelers enjoyed our stay at this home. Philippe is a great host, and the property is lovely. We enjoyed the spacious rooms and modern amenities. We hired a private chef to prepare our dinners, and he found the kitchen fine for his needs, and he was able to access the property while we were gone with no issues. We loved our time at La Villa Escuris and recommend this without hesitation."

Top Caen Hotel Reviews

Séjours & Affaires Caen Le Clos Beaumois

8/10 Good

"Clean and easily got to, it's a bit a cheap and cheerful but it does do the job if you're just looking for somewhere to bed down for the night. I couldn't imagine staying there much longer than a few days - just because it's quite empty in the room."

Hotel Crocus Caen Memorial

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay nearby Caen Memorial museum. Staffs were super nice and helpful with suggestions."

Best Western Plus Le Moderne

10/10 Excellent

"Bon hôtel"

Sure Hotel by Best Western Caen Mémorial

8/10 Good

"A warm reception from the staff, good English which always makes me feel guilty! Clean, comfortable and well maintained with every staff member engaging, helpful and professional. Rooms were comfy, food although a limited choice, was well prepared and tasty. Breakfast though was a little light on choice, but was ok. It has a small gym and a heated pool. My one little criticism is if it's raining there is nowhere outside that is covered. What i mean is there are no overhanging shelters of any kind. So if you are a smoker then rain will mean you need an umbrella. Other than that, plenty of parking, good location close to the memorial museum and only 30 mins from the ferry"

Campanile PRIME - Caen Centre Gare

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very helpful!! The room was efficient and clean! The Breakfast was excellent, great variety and quality. Very close to the train station."

Kyriad - Caen Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was truly a hidden gem. We discovered it on Orbitz after a very disappointing experience at the Ibis Budget, and we could not have been happier with our choice.The rooms were comfortable and well-maintained, with fans and windows that opened, providing plenty of fresh air, which made a big difference. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, going out of their way to ensure we had a great stay. They also recommended a fantastic local restaurant for dinner, which turned out to be one of the highlights of our visit we went there twice. If you're visiting Caen and looking for a welcoming, comfortable place to stay, I would highly recommend this hotel."
