"Solid location with great access to parts of France such as Mont Saint Michel and WWII history locations. Very walkable."

Churchill Hotel Bayeux Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The property is centrally located and is right adjacent to the main square and restaurants. Rooms were well appointed, modern and very clean. The morning buffet breakfast was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful."

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"
