Beach Hotels in Normandy, France

We stayed here as part of a group tour. I would never stay here again. Let’s start with the good: Excellent view of Mont St-Michel. About a 25 minutes walk to the base from the hotel. The food at supper was excellent. The choices for the continental breakfast were good. The rooms are very large. The bad: the staff was downright rude. They treated our tour director very badly and were impolite. The weather was very bad and my mom decided not to stay at Mont St-Michel and came back to the hotel around 1:30 pm. She asked if she could have her room earlier than 4 pm. They said hers wasn’t scheduled to be cleaned for a while so she would have to wait. She ended up getting her room at 5 pm, later than many people on our coach! If you have one person in a group tour requesting an early check-in, can’t you just ask your cleaning staff to start with that room??? The cleanliness of the hotel was just passable. Filthy windows in the dining area, bathrooms need help, towels so thin you would have needed 2 to dry off. The tables in the dining room were basically sheets of plywood screwed to table legs. They were so wobbly whenever anyone got up or moved their chairs all the glasses spilt everywhere. The staff was working really hard to serve the food. I felt sorry for them and tried to be patient but you could tell they were disorganized. This hotel was definitely not worth the price they charge. I would stay somewhere else unless they really change the management.

Fantastic place directly next to Mont Saint Michel. We brought our bikes with us and enjoyed biking a round the area and biking directly to the Mont Saint Michel avoiding the long shuttle bus queues. Very friendly and helpful hotel staff and good restaurant. The only small problem we had was getting through the entry gate to the area. There was a long queue of cars and almost everyone struggled getting through. When it was our turn we realized that we needed a code. A quick call to the hotel, who provided us the code, and problem solved.

Standard cheap hotel, suitable for one night overnight. One kilometer from the city, surrounded by fast food restaurants, restaurants and supermarkets, more convenient. Due to the order, a single person still needs to pay the residence tax for two people.

After an early morning departure from London, a 6 hour ferry ride, and another nearly 2 hours of bus from Caen, we arrived at Grandcamp-Maisy quite tired. Our tour director had our room keys available and we headed to find our rooms. It was worth the search. Very large apartment-style room with a modern kitchen, living-room, separate bedroom, and slightly larger than normal bathroom. Very comfortable and attractive. The separate bedroom was a bit small; very little room to maneuver around the bed, but comfortable and manageable for a single occupant. Just a five minute walk to the beach. The Maisy battery, if you're interested in WWII sites, is not too far away, either. Breakfast was the usual buffet-style offerings, but there were plenty of options and all the food was fresh. There was a minimal staff in January, but we managed to do just fine. A very nice place.

Welcomed by a lovely lady whose English was better than my French. Easy check in and room was clean and well laid out. Room cleaned every day and fresh towels supplied If you are on a budget this is the place and add to that secure parking, we rode down on Harleys so secure parking is a must, it was a great hotel. Right next door to McDonalds and Buffalo Grill so easy to get fed and watered Close by os petrol stations

The hotel is located on a large street passing by the tram right in front of the hotel. The hotel itself is very clean and the staff very welcome. The room was perfect, the comfortable litter with many takes including usb. There is also a table with the necessary to make tea, we enjoyed. The hotel has a very good breakfast, very well decorated and very comfortable rooms. We will be happy to return to the hotel during a next screening competition, ideally located in the Haver screen.

Clean and tidy hotel and good value. My only criticism would be the lack of choice for breakfast, just a very basic continental breakfast but they didn’t even have jam or marmalade available. But the venue is next to the courtesy bus to Mount-St-Michel which is very good.

The hotel is in the scenic area, about 20 minutes walk from Mont Saint-Michel Castle. There is also a free shuttle bus to and from Mont Saint-Michel. The room we have has a balcony overlooking Mont Saint-Michel. The hotel does not have a lift and the luggage must be picked up by the guest. There is a parking lot in front of and around the hotel, and the parking fee is charged by the entrance of the scenic spot, 4 Euro per day. There is a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, and there are many restaurants around, which is convenient.

A pleasant hotel with swimming pool

My husband and I began our road trip by sailing over from the UK to Cherborug. We found this beauty of a hotel, as our first stop. A 2 hour drive from Cherbourg, we were greeted by friendly reception staff, who helped us park in their secure car park. The hotel had reserved us a space ready. (Cost €24 per day). They were very speedy on replying to messages. The hotel itself is beautiful. We got a room with a terrace, overlooking the gardens. A 5 minute walk to restaurants & bars. Great atmosphere and was lovely to sit near the water fountain with a drink and dinner. We also walked to the beach front (bar de Soleil was fabulous) which took us about 10-15 minutes. Hotel very clean and quiet. Bed comfortable - we both slept great! A lovey touch with complimentary water, juice & fizzy drink in our mini fridge. A perfect start to our holiday. Just gutted we didn’t stay another night! Would highly recommend. Thank you!

We loved this boutique hotel, a former manor house! There is so much history to the original building, and it is beautifully restored. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Our room had all the modern conveniences (except a mini fridge, which would have been helpful), while retaining old world charm. The hotel is convenient walking distance to several downtown restaurants. Mont St Michel is only a few miles away. Breakfast was mostly continental, but they do offer scrambled eggs and European bacon, and there are many other selections to choose from. Be sure to check out the courtyard, it is charming!

The lady at the reception finally was very nice and friendly after I booked via the website as in the morning a telephonic reservation was impossible as before 12am nobody answered the phone. Room was ok with direct access to the pool although in detail the hotel needs some renovation like e.g. the broken fences and the missing cover at the sink. From restaurant there is a very nice view on the Le Havre Port. A small menue was promising but there was some only one waitor and restaurant full an the menue list got smaller while waiting to be served. The starters were nice the Caesar salad not , as too cold and the popcorn coating like little stones , unfortunately nobody wanted a feedback, so we skipped breakfast next morning. Maybe we had a unlucky day.

We have stayed with my husband for one night. The room is really basic, lacking any nice touch and amenities, there is actually nothing there. The paper cups in the bathroom , plastic flower, hairdryer is attached to the wall like in the 90s. More cons: the room isolation is really bad, you can hear someone is going to the toilet next to you :)) For the advantages: Good bed with the perfect mattress Location, it’s 5 min to the beach Very clean

Firstly, we found the staff to be pleasant however this is a very poor 3 star hotel. It needs modernisation. The location is not great if you are a tourist who wants to explore the local area of Deauville because you will need your car for this. However, if your business is horses then you are right in the middle of this farming industry.

We could not be more disappointed in the hotel. The room is tiny as is the bathroom. We are in one of their nicest rooms. I would had to see a standard room. The front desk staff was professional and nice but it stopped there. The concierge was grumpy and acted like he was doing me a favor. We had a snack and drink in the bar which is a nice spot. Also, the hotel is not on the beach as advertised. We would never stay here again.

Welcome, location, hotel rooms are very satisfactory. Good mattress, bathtub overlooking the not very busy passage. There is nothing to say compared to what was announced, we had a very good night, quiet. The downside is the waiter’s breakfast. Although it was pleasant and tried to finish it as quickly as possible, there was only one person in the restaurant. We entered the second scheduled time around 9:15 in the morning, and there was no more scrambled eggs or hot milk, etc. The quality of the cold cuts is not very high, the bread seems to be from the day before.

We enjoyed our stay at this Mercure hotel. Our smallish, weirdly designed room had a nice balcony overlooking the city and the ocean. We were also visited each day twice by our favored, big seagull. Given that the site for the hotel is located on a tall cliff, the guestrooms, hallways, small breakfast restaurant and mainly the impossible parking garage (super tight, be careful!) all appear cramped and tight. The staff is hardworking, especially during breakfast hours. We enjoyed the direct private access to the beach promenade. A short walk from the hotel you reach the superb Christian Dior estate and gardens. Not to be missed.

We stayed in room 308, views from both our windows were INCREDIBLE! We got the evening shuttle bus, which wasn’t too bad. It was full but not overpacked like during the day. The tourist office was east to find who had our key, spoke English so winner. It was very difficult to find out annexe . It was pouring with rain and with two kids in tow and still very busy on the streets , my husband left us in a doorway whilst he went to seek it out. Low and behold he found it and it was not where you think it would be!! Needs better signs 100%. Anyway once we were inside, I mean it’s a very basic , small room. Bathroom is teeny & there’s not enough space to swing a cat however for us it was ideal as all we needed was a bed to sleep in for the night. It was clean , and although it’s pricey it’s definitely not a 5star hotel quality , that was the only downside but most of the hotels seem the higher price on st michel. It was incredibly busy around 5pm so I dread to think what it would be like during the day. But the best time to go is in the evening. The crowds had gone and it was magical. We explored the grounds , had some food at auberge Saint Pierre (it was gross & staff were rude) got some beautiful pictures , and took it all in. We heard what I assume was the nuns singing in the evening and then got woken up at 8am by the bells ringing . Breakfast at the hotel was good, it was all a bit mish mash and seemed disorganised but we got the hang of it in the end and really enjoyed it

We had the most perfect stay here! We booked a ”Bay View Logis” room, which entails walking a ways uphill and up stairs from the hotel itself, which is fairly close to the entrance to the island. They were very open about this on their website so we were expecting it. It was very much worth the walk! The bay view room actually had a large patio, which was so unbelievably special to have. We could look out over the city and watch the tide come in and out. When we look at photos of Mont St-Michel, we can easily spot our patio. The room was quite small but worth it for the patio. There is no air conditioning, which for us meant leaving the windows open at night, which meant being kept up by the incessant squawking of all the gulls. But it was all well worth it to be on Mont St-Michel, and a wonderful experience overall. They will even bring breakfast to your room, which was quite thoughtful considering what a hike it was from the restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful.
