Welcoming reception. Lovely bright bar area, comfortable chairs. Room very modern, bright and clean, same for the shower room. Comfortable bed . Only downside were the European pillows. Need a choice of either European or English pillows.
Really nice welcome and very comfortable and convenient. Top marks to the restaurant also on the same site (though might be independent of the hotel) which made for a nice evening meal.
Excellent for a short stay, one to three nights probably ideal. Good location to visit local sights. The Bayeux tapestry, the D Day beaches and the pretty town of Honfleur. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Simple and tasty breakfast. Everything very clean. Lovely pool. Easy parking. Perfect for transfer to the ferry.
Excellent pre-ferry stopover.
It would be useful to know in advance that the parking is secure AND yhe hotel serves substantial snacks AND there is a restaurant next door owned by the same people. The shower room was quite small
Very friendly staff, good room. Lovely location very short drive to ferry terminal. Lovely stay thank you

Very good/perfect location
Perfectly ok and well situated for Brittany ferries.
Very friendly helpful staff.
Only downside was that the restaurant was fully booked and I was unable to eat there.
Great location and easy to find, very clean and modern, friendly staff who were incredibly helpful. Good parking and locking the car park at midnight made it feel safe.
A good choice as an overnight stay before taking the ferry. Walking distance to the town and shops nearby. The adjoining restaurant was very good. Secure parking.
We had a fantastic stay. Room was spacious and comfy. Constructive critisim would be when cleaning don't forget the shower seals as this was quite grimey. An under counter fridge would have been a fantastic touch as we went to the shop each night to buy tea due to food intolerance. I did report the bathroom door also as being difficult to open and close. I did get stuck in there one evening so luckily husband was there to let me out lol.
Nice property with good facilities and the staff and owner so friendly and helpful throughout. It is walkable from the ferry port, although, from a personal point of view I would suggest using a taxi in hindsight.
The staff were really helpful and made a noteworthy positive contribution to my stay. The facilities were clean and well maintained and overall , although only one night, I cannot fault the hotel. Perfect (Well except that I think I may have paid a bit much for my room, but that's my fault).
