Caen Hotel Guide - Hotels with WiFi Hotels in Caen, Calvados

This hotel was a real find. Large room (especially for Europe!), friendly service with most speaking fluent English (shout out to Quenton, who was the best!), good location (especially if coming by train), and free parking (lot was tight but they seemed to squeeze everybody in, including our oversized car). Internet was a bit spotty but they worked it out eventually. Good breakfast, and nice to have a bar for after the long days.

The Mercure was extremely well situated and convenient to all major attractions. We were very pleased with Ms Amy of the hotel staff. She was extremely helpful in getting us settled in our room as well as providing great information concerning local sights.

Great location, close to train station. Friendly staff and confortable bed

We are American, so we probably expect a little more out of our hotels. This hotel was a typical European hotel with small bedroom area and small bath. We didn't have A/C and we were in a room on the ground floor, so leaving the window open at night was a little dicey. Overall, this was a typical European hotel.

Great location in the centre of town, close to the Bouef & Cow restaurant where we choose to eat. Use the Republique underground carpark less than 100m away.

Walking distance from train station but I got lost and tripled my travel time. I had to lug my suitcase up four flights of stairs so if you don't want to do that, ask for a lower room. The rooms are no bigger than a postage stamp but I had a view (almost) of the water way--sail boats, barges and cafes spilling on to the cobble stones. The breakfast was copious. I enjoyed it. Centrally located near medieval neighbor with lots of restaurants and cafes.

The hotel's location was in a good place for our dive to Dieppe the next day. Cean isn't a pretty city

Exit train station doors and look across the street - Voila, Hotel La Consigne! Perfect location for me and my daughter arriving late in the evening. Last thing you want to do is have to look for your hotel in a strange city at night. We notified the staff in advance that we were arriving late from Bordeaux due to the train strike in France and they kindly waited up for us to give us our keys. The next two mornings we enjoyed the simple but tasty continental breakfast provided by the hotel in the café downstairs. For only 7 euros you get orange juice, coffee, yogurt a croissant and baguette with butter and jam. Across the street at the station you can catch a tram into the city center (about 5 minutes) or you can walk 15-20 minutes. Tip: take the shortcut through the train station and go downstairs and through the tunnel to get to the other side. The best part about the Hotel La Consigne is by far the staff. Julian speaks English well and he went out of his way to help us plan our visit to the Caen Memorial and Mont St. Michel. He gave us tips and advice and even booked our taxi to the Brittany Ferries for us on our last day.

I use this hotel when arriving at Caen/Ouistreham on the afternoon sailing. It's very easy to find; leave the périphérique west at the Caen Memorial and it's straight ahead on the second roundabout. Unlike many of the hotels, it is still staffed at that time of night. The staff are always very pleasant, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The ensuite facilities are quite adequate. There's plenty of safe parking. The breakfasts are basic but I'm not a big breakfast eater and there's plenty of what there is. This hotel is what it is; good value you for money. If you want 5⭐ luxury go elsewhere and pay for it. I've stayed here many times now and never been disappointed.

There is no elevator and room/bathroom were tiny. There was about 2 feet of space around the bed and a small table with the tv. We were only there over night so was doable. No room for suitcase! Staff friendly and helpful, great location, clean. They are building a new hotel on the property that will have an elevator and I expect larger rooms. Great stopping place from touring Normandy area. Had a great meal and loved the Cathedral in the middle of town.
