Mercure Caen Centre Port De Plaisance

Hotel on site Parking very easy to access and use even with a large estate car which was what I was looking for and is always important to me. The charges were very fair and the hotel let us leave the car whilst we had an interview after checking out. Much appreciated. The hotel has a nice luxury air with a wonderful atrium space used for meetings etc. It is clearly used by the local business community. There is a nice bar on site but no restaurant though there are plenty in the immediate vicinity. The room was typical with plenty of space and very clean. Colours used throughout are dark to give an air of opulence but some may find it not to their taste. There is a lot of nice artwork displayed. The buffet breakfast area is pleasant and the buffet itself of good quality apart from the coffee.

The coffee at breakfast. Not sure why but it was awful. Traditional mellita bean to cup machine so should have been ok but it was lukewarm and undrinkable. I did not raise it with the staff as I was rather preoccupied with my important rdv that day but there were plenty of staff on duty who were all friendly and they may have been able to make me some coffee had I asked! I understand why a hotel has showers over a bath but it feels old fashioned perhaps hotels could consider Italian shower or bath over shower like twin or double beds and offer clients a choice. But the shower functioned well.

Excellent location Almost everything close by,,

Kind staff,Location,,clean enough.I booked a suite And Double room,even though suite is smaller good enough for a day and night
