Bayeux hotellit lähellä Museum of the Bayeux Tapestry

Plussat: Great hotel with great staff. Highly recommended as base for Normandy explorations

Plussat: We thoroughly enjoyed the apartment room (2 bedroom suite) it was clean, however it gets a bit noisy with the morning breakfast preparations.

Miinukset: The breakfast was lacking in flavor and variety, plus it was expensive

Plussat: Fantastic hotel with such lovely staff

Plussat: Location, Staff, room quality

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was perfect

Plussat: Main eating room and outdoor area was lovely.

Miinukset: the carpeting in the room was stained and the room itself was very "old". not appealing at all. The bathroom had been redone and was very nice.

Plussat: Beautiful hotel in town. The staff was friendly, charming, and so helpful. We would stay here again and have already recommended it to others.

Plussat: Attentive staff (though not enough of them). Nice salon - good spot to enjoy a drink. Large garage for bike parking.

Miinukset: Room very small and the decor very dated.

Plussat: Breakfast was great! And the coffee was also great. Being American, it was nice to have a large cup of coffee and more protein options (eggs) for breakfast. We liked the location and the availability of parking.

Miinukset: The only issue is there is not air conditioning. Air room was on the first level, and it was not possible to leave the window open for air. There would be no privacy.

Plussat: Beautiful place to stay. Very well located and very helpful staff. Good breakfast and lovely rooms.

Miinukset: I liked everything.

Plussat: The garden.

Miinukset: No tea or coffee making facilities. Lacking in bathroom amenities with a very poor hair dryer. Impossible to get boiling water to make tea.

Plussat: It was absolutely lovely and charming we were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived

Plussat: The hotel staff was super friendly and went out of their way to welcome us and make us comfortable. We met a smile at every turn while on the property!

Miinukset: Our room was in the attic making it a fairly good value. But unfortunately we arrived during a massive heat wave and the room was originally very warm with only one small fan to cool it off. The evening cooled quickly and our room became very comfortable.

Plussat: Our second stay here. Ideally placed to visit the DDay beaches and museums. Clean We stayed in the main building this time,if we go again ,we think the extra charge for the detached apartments is worth the money.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: This was an absolutely wonderful place to base our Normandy vacation. The huge Supermarket next door was so convenient for groceries & other needs. The location was also very central and convenient to everything we wanted to see. We would definitely stay there again.

Miinukset: There is nothing about this place to dislike. =)

Plussat: Location to the town centre, supermarket, beaches. Great to have an apartment.

Miinukset: Surprised to walk in to what is really an old folks home renting out empty apartments.

Plussat: Good secure parking. Nice quiet swimming pool

Miinukset: A bit far out of the centre. It is a senior living facility renting out spare apartments - this was a surprise but apartments are roomy and well equipped. 10 minute walk to U mart and bakery. Well placed for Battle of Normandy museum and Bayeux military cemetery.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: the balcony was thick with dirt. I asked for it to be cleaned , but nothing was done . also the balcony was from the bed room not the lounge , And it had only one chair. The dish cloth looked like it was 20 years old ? the wash sponge was too dirty to use . we had to wash every item in the kitchen before we could use them (ie the cutlery was so dull ) when washed it shined .

Plussat: Reasonably priced. Secure parking.

Miinukset: Having stayed at another Domitys in Abbeville, we were really disappointed with the one in Bayeux. This one really felt like a retirement home with staff wearing what looked like nurses uniforms and pigeon holes with patient notes behind reception. You can only have dinner up until 20.00hrs which is also when room service stops. The location isn't near the main town and although we new that begore booking, hadn't quite appreciated the 30 minute walk just to get into town.

Plussat: A very comfy stay in a great location

Plussat: Very roomy and very clean.

Miinukset: Front desk closes at 7 and doesn't open up until 8.

Plussat: Rauhallinen, ikäihmisiä pääsääntöisesti asukkaina. Palveluita emme käyttäneet, olivat todennäköisesti heidän tarpeita vastaaviksi suunniteltuja. Vähän kävelymatkaa keskustaan, hieno ostoskeskus ihan vieressä. Keittiövarustus sattui olemaan puutteellinen meidän huoneistossa. Menisimme uudelleen, hyvä hintalaatusuhde

Miinukset: Didn’t know it was also a retirement home

Plussat: So a friend and I booked this place without knowing it was elderly focused but the staff didn’t even mention it even on check in. We were an absolute oddity but the place is well equipped and the price was even better. So good we came back! The prices had risen but still, we were happy.

Plussat: Stayed here a a group of three motorcycle riders on tour in Normandy , didn’t arrive until 2100 hrs but still got checked in ok Apartment was spotless , staff were pleasant breakfast was standard french fare which was ample for us Would certainly stay again

Plussat: Marie was charming with a fantastic personality!

Plussat: It was close to downtown.

Miinukset: It was okay .

Plussat: We were met by friendly and helpful staff. The room was okay. The breakfast was very good

Miinukset: We were on the top floor so there were several flights of stairs which could trouble some guests,

Miinukset: Lovely hotel in a central location and beautiful rooms.

Plussat: The location and breakfast were great.

Miinukset: Not having someone there to speak with other than 5-8 during check-in. Not having coffee in our room the second morning when we had to leave by 5:30.

Plussat: Comfortable bed. Very nice staff. Mary was so patient with us. Friendly.

Miinukset: Few more options at breakfast.

Plussat: Breakfast was very good and the person serving was friendly and helpful

Miinukset: Check in was not good at all. When we arrived after 5pm the small lobby was full of people. The member of staff told us she would be one minute and she took 10 minutes. There should have been someone there to help with such a big group. She even left us and another couple in the lobby while she took the group outside!!! When she returned the other couple told her do deal with us first but she kept talking to them. She insisted on trying to hand us out tourist information when all we wanted to do was get to our room. This was really poor and was a really bad start. The guest housel is a lovely building in a great location but this spoilt our stay here and we would not recommend it. The shower in the room was also broken. Had we been staying more than one night we would have been really disappointed with our stay.

Plussat: Breakfast was great. Location perfect.

Miinukset: The shower had low water pressure. Small.

Plussat: The breakfast was very good, Marie was very helpful and pleasant

Plussat: Marie made the most wonderful breakfast every morning. Fresh baked pastries and tarts and croissants and fruit. Could not ask for anything better.

Miinukset: Since we were there during the heat wave in June/July 2019 it would have been nice if there was air conditioning. We were provided a fan though.

Plussat: Excellent location.

Plussat: Beautiful building, modern, clean interior, free wifi

Plussat: Beautiful hotel in a great location on the edge of town. They were very friendly and the room was great.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: The hotel was extremely quaint, maintained very well, and was an ideal location for exploring the several attractions in Bayeux. While Monique, the proprietor, doesn't not speak English, she communicates in a way that is very accessible (and I found this to be excellent French practice :)

Miinukset: No complaints.

Plussat: It's ok, nothing special. The house is really nice, but they make you use a side door, and except for breakfast, make it clear you are not welcome in the area.

Plussat: Location is great. Close to city center and we could see the beautiful chapel from our room. Price was pretty good and the continental breakfast was surprisingly good.

Miinukset: No internet service despite what the hotel staff said. It needed to be reset but the staff is not available after 10:00 pm.

Plussat: Immaculately clean room in a lovely house. Withing walking distance of Town. Free parking across the street.

Miinukset: No tea or coffee making facilities in room.

Plussat: Great location, close to train station and main attractions of Bayeux.

Miinukset: Very thin walls - was thankfully next to quiet couple, but wouldn't want to stay near honeymoon suite!

Plussat: A perfect place to stay -excellent location - only a few minutes walk from the town centre. Nice art deco/contemporary decor and a lovely smell in the stairways!

Miinukset: Could do with tea making facilities

Plussat: Loistava hotelli: erinomainen sijainti, persoonallinen julkisivu, siistit ja tyylikkäät huoneet, linnamainen tunnelma, hyvä aamupala ja kärsivällisesti englannin kieleen suhtautuva ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Plussat: The location was very good. The room was comfortable and quiet.

Miinukset: The desk staff were not extremely friendly, one more so than another, but overall ok.

Plussat: Location is excellent

Miinukset: Room was small but adequate en-suite shower room was also small

Plussat: The room was very nice and comfortable.

Miinukset: The breakfast wasn't very good in terms of quality, quantity, or value. The room rate at 250+ Euros/night was overpriced for a typical 3-star hotel. WiFi was spotty.

Plussat: We liked the quaintness of the hotel, old fashioned and charming. The rooms were small but that’s the case in much of Europe. The bed was very comfortable. The water was hot and good pressure and more secure WiFi than is sometimes offered. Very good location to town center and pedestrian area.

Miinukset: The breakfast wasn’t very good. There were No wash cloths as typical in Europe and we forgot to bring our own.

Plussat: The staff was lovely and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable.

Miinukset: It would be better if the restaurant was open for more than only breakfast and then perhaps longer than ending at 9am.

Plussat: The location was good for walking.

Miinukset: The parking was free, but quite far from the hotel.

Miinukset: No tea / coffee facilities in room

Plussat: This hotel is close to the train station. Walking distance to many shops and restaurants. It was nice to have breakfast right in the hotel. The staff was friendly. We were in the newer section. The room was large, clean and modern.

Miinukset: The hotel did not have an elevator. I don’t remember reading that in the accommodation. But the staff was able to help with our luggage.

Miinukset: I would like to express how displeased I am with this reservation and the horrible customer serviceI we received as guests. On the website Hotel Churchill claims to offer disabled access and "facilities for disabled guests" this is not the case. There was no elevator, my husband and I had a third floor room that we had to climb 34 stairs every time. I notified them about how I have a injured knee which makes it really difficult for me to climb stairs and they refused to change our room to the first floor even though we asked! People were checking in and out they could have easily put them in our room and moved us downstairs. My knee was further damaged so I had to see an orthopedic doctor and wear my knee brace the whole time in the hotel. We had 34 stairs to walk up and down every time we left the hotel. No air conditioning in the staircase. The hotel claims to offer a 24 hour front desk person and no one was at the desk or available after 11:00pm. Another thing, we had to leave our key hanging on a wall bookcase out in the open with our number on our key. This was every time we left our room. Their was also no toilet paper provided . No toiletries were provided just a soap dispenser over sink and in bathroom. I needed to iron and was told we had to reserve iron ahead of time or climb down 4 set of staircases to iron a blouse. Finally,because of all the stress to my knee injury due to walking up and down the stairs- my knee injury was worsened causing swelling and possibly caused me to develop water on the knee.

Plussat: Free shuttle to the airport.

Miinukset: We had to change rooms because the original room reeked of cigarettes.

Plussat: The friendly staff, authentic memorabilia, location, room

Plussat: Extra clean rooms, comfortable beds

Plussat: Very good duplex room for our needs as we were a family three. Wi Fi very good . Spectacular grounds and helpful, multilingual staff. Ample parking..

Miinukset: Hotel is 15-20 minutes walk from Bayeux including a few busy roads. Breakfast expensive.

Plussat: Grounds were really nice.

Plussat: The breakfast was a very nice European breakfast -but the equipment has seen better days (cracks and chips and unmatched flatware ,etc..) Very nice setting -relaxing and pleasant very convenient for exploring the area and the beaches Initial reception staff were professional and pleasant We stayed in the main house -not the new annex

Miinukset: Frankly I was expecting more of an upscale stay. Evening front desk staff (male )was sullen and lied about dinner times (we had been told when checking in that the restaurant was open until 9:30pm - at 8:45pm when arriving back the front desk person (male ) told us the restaurant was fully booked and was closing in 5 minutes -we checked with the manager in the morning and both were lies ) Drink items in room are very expensive for middling quality - The impression I had was an establishment that was unsure of what they were trying to be and who they were marketing towards . They seem to want to be upscale(the grounds, the advertising ,etc..) and then fail to live up to that - the damaged serving equipment and flat wares , The below average quality in room drinks -but charging expensive prices . The inconsistent staff training and quality .

Plussat: Excellent elegant

Miinukset: Dinner and breakfast was fair, service fair, recommend eating elsewhere

Plussat: Kaunis hotelli kävelymatkan (noin 15 minuuttia) päässä keskustasta. Huoneemme oli sivurakennuksessa. Siisti ja toimiva huone, viileä helteelläkin.

Plussat: This chateau was magical. A ten minute walk from the train station, one enters an idyllic, magical setting. It looks EXACTLY like the photos. It's an oasis. Plus it's only another 20 minutes to walk into the city.

Miinukset: It would be great if the staff spoke better English but you can't have everything and, after all, we're visiting their country. They certainly went out of their way to be accommodating.

Plussat: Everything was just perfect! From the bathrobes in the bathroom, the froi gras for dinner, there is not a single thing I didn’t like about our stay! Merci Beaucoup

Plussat: Beautiful hotel building, pretty moated garden.

Miinukset: Staff let the place down. Breakfast was 7-10. We turned up at 7:15 to be told very impolitely to go away for at least another 15 minutes as the breakfast lady had failed to show so things were late. This made us very late and there was no hint of apology. On turning up for breakfast again at 7:30 the hot food was not ready, just cereal or bread with tired looking fruit apparently from the day before. And there was no service whatsoever, not even a good morning. We left hungry. The rooms were small, it was easy to be disturbed by goings on in other rooms, the carpets were tired and marked (apparently by cigarettes) and the kitchen fans vented right outside my bedroom window. The hotel sits in-between a busy road and a railway line. Probably okay in winter when windows are shut but unpleasant in summer.

Plussat: The potential for it to be an outstanding hotel. The dessert menu was good and breakfast was ok.

Miinukset: The outside space needs maintaining. There was a court yard area at the back of our room, such a shame it was covered in weeds and overgrown. There is swan poo all over the front lawn which isn’t nice to walk through. The food was ok, but we didn’t think it was value for money. Small portions and no vegetables.

Plussat: I have stayed at the BellaFontaine previously and it has improved time on time. The grounds are kept to a high standard the facilities are in keeping with the price. I will return again as well as telling my friends to book there if they are staying in Bayeux.

Miinukset: The gravel drive is tricky if your on a motorbike. That said it’s a small point and you can’t please everyone one all the time. Excellent property

Plussat: The lake view and the room food excellent

Miinukset: Dogs allowed in restaurant and breakfast especially when they pee on the floor. Shower needs somewhere to rest shampoo. Children eating whilst playing on electronic devises. No coffee in room

Plussat: Location was great, stunning Chateaux

Miinukset: The management of the Chateaux needs to be improved. The facilities need upgrading. For instance two bathrooms in the "apartment" but upstairs apartment had no toilet which means guests upstairs have to go downstairs to use the toilet. The shower upstairs is in the bathtub which generally is not a problem but the shower head had no wall mounting resulting in "hand shower" situation.

Plussat: Breakfast was very good. Hotel was basic but it was fine for sleeping. Air conditioning worked okay.

Plussat: The photos don’t do the place enough justice, it’s presents as much better in person. I would suggest getting a decent photographer in! It was a great little find for the value compared to other places

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Clean, very friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: Quality of food was average and the wine selection minimal.

Plussat: 1. The location was excellent - surrounded by trees and a grass lawn. Huge car park. Within walking distance of Bayeux town centre - We had come to visit the Bayeux tapestry. The boys enjoyed the heated outside swimming pool. 2. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: Can't think of anything! We were very impressed.

Plussat: swimming pool and friendly staff

Plussat: Very good breakfast

Miinukset: Wi-Fi Internet signal was very weak and my connection was often lost. Difficulty in attaching even SMALL files to e-mail messages

Plussat: Nice location, ample parking, modern rooms, bar, very clean. Had the AC worked properly, I would've given it five stars. But with the inop AC, inop refrigerator, and BS answers from the front desk, then it's two stars.

Miinukset: We had three rooms and in all three the AC, which we could supposedly control, would shut down after about an hour. It'd display an error code, then we'd have to press the on off button again. Sometimes it'd restart, sometimes it wouldn't. The staff in the front desk said it was normal. Thumbs down. The front desk also said the room refrigerator is a minibar designed to keep your drinks at room temperature. It did just that. Go figure.

Plussat: Handy for the town. Comfortable. Warm pool.

Miinukset: Scrambled egg at breakfast was gloopy

Plussat: Having access to a pool was great. It was a little odd walking through the dining area to reach it though.

Plussat: Very comfortable bed. Very quiet room due to Double Door...great idea. Hotel had taken note of my request for room away fm lifts as I'm a light sleeper. 10/10

Miinukset: Overall very good for price paid and very content but I did notice that bar seating area was very small...and furniture seemed a bit old n shabby. Not terribly inviting space to relax

Plussat: Good location rooms spacious and nice pool

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The room was small, but suitable for 2 adults and 2 children. It is a small hotel, only three floors, maybe 50-75 rooms. There is a decent sized pool, with lounging chairs and also a shaded area a few steps away from the pool with comfortable outdoor seating. Restaurant onsite. It was about an 8 minute walk from the hotel to the nearest bakery, not too bad for a quick morning stroll. About a 30 minute walk from the train station to the hotel, through the quaint city center. The hotel staff was very helpful in arranging taxis for us as we had a larger group (10) heading to Omaha Beach, while private tours were very expensive, using taxis allowed us to take it all in at our own pace at about 35EUR each way per car and we were able to fit 5 people per car. City buses to the beaches are not particularly reliable or frequent. The bar/lounge was quite comfortable and able to accomodate informal gatherings for us with no issue. The children's area is conveniently adjacent to the lounge so the kids were able to play as we relaxed.

Miinukset: From a staffing perspective, this hotel seemed a little understaffed. The person checking us in was also responsible for the bar area across the lobby, so several times he had to pause our check in so he could make an espesso at the bar for another guest. Kind of weird. Typically in the evenings, the person tending bar was also a waiter in the restaurant. A little inconvenient. One other staff issue: our kids have nut allergies and we realize this is not very typical, but when we ordered some dessert (ice cream) for them as a treat at the end of a long day, the server understood our request (we have a note in French to indicate the allergies and also he acknowledged that he understood very clearly), but when he brought there dessert, the dishes were full of almond shavings! So then he says he will bring new ones, but comes back and says upon further review, the ice cream containers indicate that there may be nuts in the ice cream. So it seems our allergy alert was completely ignored. I know that is a very specific situation, but since we were clear in our request and he was clear in his understanding (because if there's ever any doubt, we steer clear), that was disappointing and dangerous. Finally, I didn't like that the laundry room door was open all the time and the laundry room itself was not very clean or organized, more scary and dingy. Maybe just keep the door shut?
