Eccentric and eclectic, marvellous!
Charming place with equally charming hosts - nothing was too much trouble. Excellent breakfast served in the beautiful garden. Eccentric and eclectic, marvellous building though the stairs are steep. Highly recommended for something a little different.

This boutique family-run hotel was amazing… the location, the hospitality, the quaintness, and the friendly service by Franc! And walking distance to the heart of Honfleur with many small shops and restaurants. The breakfast was the best we had on our entire trip throughout France. We would definitely stay here again.

Stayed in the Annex, an Old house beautifully restored with a great use of the layout and space, amazing windows, comfy bed and pillows, big and stylish suites, love it! Perfect location, close to everything. Delicious breakfast, homemade jam, freshly squeezed orange juice, a variety of just baked bread, very good cheese and charcuterie. Perfect in any ways.

The staff here, especially Frank, were absolutely lovely. Nothing was too much trouble and they were so kind. The breakfast was all homemade and was absolutely delicious. The rooms are all unique and it was an unusual and lovely place to stay. Very central to the town as well. Would definitely recommend this very special place to stay.

One-off accommodation!!
Quirky, one-off accommodation. Very different from boring, standard hotels. Need a sense of adventure & fun. Plus love of old uneven buildings. Friendly helpful staff.

Little gem in Honfleur
We were lucky to find such a great venue. It has a lovely feel about it, with tons of authentic character, owners and staff who bend over backwards to help with anything, and breakfasts to die for.Also, the location is perfect, being just a short walk into the heart of Honfleur.

Completely charming stay
Everything about A l'Ecole Buissonnière was so wonderfully charming! The owners of the B&B were extremely friendly and helpful in getting our parking situation figured out (the lot across the street was full and street parking is pretty scarce in that area, so they drove my husband to a private spot to park the car and brought him back). The decor is beautiful and rustic, there's a cute cat who lives there, and the breakfast provided was absolutely outstanding with tons of choices, including a bunch of delicious French pastries. I would absolutely stay there again if I'm back in Honfleur!

Convenience, character and a bit quirky
The staff was wonderful and very helpful! Breakfast was good with many choices including great coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice and fresh baked goods. Our room was comfortable once we got into it but it was accessible only by a narrow (somewhat wobbly) spiral staircase. We left our suitcases downstairs and only carried up what we needed. If we were here again we would request something on the ground floor.

Disliked: Room comfort
Our room really wasn’t functional. Ceilings slanted only giving an about a 4 foot path around room. I hit my head on beam above toilet I’m 5 ft 9. Bed set on floor, not real comforable, I had to crawl into bed not to hit my head. We had to go to the patio to get wifi, not very convenient when it was raining! We were on 3rd floor of a converted attic. My wife hit her head a few times and she is 5’4”. Room was very clean the staff was very nice, and they had agood breakfast. Our room had a very nice tub that did have adequate headroom.

Great hotel and staff
Really good location; very helpful staff, excellent breakfast, help with parking. The building dates from much earlier times but the rooms are spacious and quaint. Definitely worth staying there. Quiet and just a block or so from the huge crowds!

Old, old school converted into intimate hotel
We loved this quirky hotel with its old winding staircases and the architecturally interesting rooms. Our room was large and lovely and the location , right in the center of everything and walking distance to everything. We parked our car through the hotel and never saw it until we left. Father and grown son run this delightful inn with a lovely courtyard and intimate room for a delicious breakfast every morning. What a treat it was to stay here. If you are looking for a Hilton type experience this is not for you as it is small, warm, charming, intimate and lovely in its own way.

Charming hotel!
My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights in Oct. This hotel is so charming from its courtyard entrance to the cozy bedrooms with embroidered pillowcases. The complimentary breakfast was the best I had experienced in all of Normandy. A roaring fire greeted us in the breakfast room. The homemade crepes,jellies and spreads were excellent, as were the croissants and other pastries. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Excellent Choice B&B!!
This is a real authentic, perfect, Honfleur B&B. Everything was awe-inspiring. Each room feels like it’s own Pied-à-terre. There is no reception desk. The innkeepers expect your arrival through the door into a courtyard that has their charming little restaurant, a gift shop that sells their homemade products and through another door you can see their immaculate little kitchen where they make the most superb breakfast that we had in all of France. Do not miss this experience!

What a gem right in the heart of Honfleur
Couldn't fault this beautiful little place in the heart of Honfleur. The staff , very much especially the young guy from Ukraine ( apologies didn't catch his name ) were polite, extremely helpful and went the extra mile to make our stay very enjoyable Situated in a small quiet side street, a very short walk to port, 2 minutes from all the shops couldnt be better Would definitely stay here again 😃

Charming and unique small hotel close to everythin
My husband and I stayed at L'ecole bussionnière for three nights in early August. The staff was so kind, breakfast was amazing, and the room was large and comfortable with a lot of character. We stayed in L'etude, which is in the attic. There is air conditioning provided but we did not need it as it cooled down in the evening. We recommend that you enjoy some time relaxing in the courtyard as well as take the bikes for a ride around Honfleur.

Stay in Honfleur
Lots of character and a very charming and comfortable room in this 18th century building. Service was great overall, breakfast selection was excellent and the location unbeatable. We parked the car (10 Euros per night extra for an off-the-street spot) and explored everything on foot. One young kitchen helper wasn't friendly at all and the promised WIFI service was non-existent in our room (it did work in the dining room).

Great little hotel
Great place, very comfy, staff was very nice and male staffer (didn't get his name) was brilliant. We love everything about it except for one thing is that there are no little fridges in rooms. we travel a lot and love small boutique hotels like this one but a small fridge should be standard in rooms. Everything else was perfect, great stay and would recommend to everyone.
