Caen Hotel Guide - Romantic Hotels in Caen, France

Our stay was good, The staff was quite helpful and the meal was excellent.

It it easy to walk into Caen centre, or there is a regular bus service, nearby.

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.

We were visiting friends so we needed a hotel in the centre of the city. The hotel was very good value and had good facilities. The hotel was manned over night so we were able to return late after a party.

Very convenient location. Very helpful and friendly staff. Very comfortable rooms. Will certainly stay here again if I get the opportunity.

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.

Good to have a lift to our floor. My wife has mobility problems. Nice to be able to make coffee in the mornings!!! Over all good place to stay.

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.

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.
