Convenient hotel not too far from the train station. Very helpful gentleman at reception. Room was clean and decent. Only issue was that Caen had a hot spell when we were there and the room was noticeably warm despite opening the windows in full. We were facing a courtyard with little wind. Nighttime got cooler but not cold enough if room had AC. Other times of the year, this would not be a complaint so this hotel would be more than adequate. FYI, you can have a one free coffee and juice in the morning and also have some refreshments (drinks) available at reception when open. There's a bakery nearby to buy pastries for breakfast if necessary.

Cosy little hotel in central Caen

Mathieu and family made us feel very welcome in this lovely little hotel. The rooms are small and simple, but tastefully designed and very comfortable. It's a small hotel, so don't expect a huge buffet breakfast - just good bread, cheese, homemade yogurt and the local speciality teurgoule. The location is perfect, within walking distance of the castle and abbeys, and there are lots of buses and trams (get the Twisto app}.

8/10 Very good

A couple of days exploring the area, Caen made a good base. This is a comfortable b&b (breakfast is extra) parking in place de la république is easy and 3 mins walk. No lift which made it a bit of a hassle with our luggage and no one there to check us in but info was sent via email.
