I was in Caen on a study-/businesstrip, and I stayed at hotel L'Univers for two weeks. This is a simple hotel with no extras, but if you really get what you pay for; the location is very good, the rooms ok and clean, and the staff are very helpful and nice and welcoming people. I will really recomend it -... More

As in many other cities in France, the service in the hotel makes you forgive them some other things. Nikolas advised us everything we need and even exceeded our expectations in his hospitality and willing to communicate in good English. Seems we had the smallest room (203 if I am not mistaken), but with biggest bathroom (we've rechecked on evacuation... More

We were quite satisfied with Hotel L'Univers. Typically small room, of course, but the bathroom was bigger than I expected (still small, but not terribly so), and quite modern and clean. Good friendly and helpful service at the front desk. Excellent location downtown. Recommended! More

The owner of this hotel is absolutely terrific. He goes out of his way to do anything he can to make your stay a positive experience. He recommends restaurants in the area and the location is centrally located to all attractions. Our only complaint was our room was over a Irish Pub & thus was very noisy until closing. The... More

Our room clearly a recent refurb to a high standard. Hotel recently under new management (excellent English spoken) who are trying very hard. Breakfast is no-frills but perfectly adequate. Free parking overnight in the adjacent town square. We had a room on the corner of the building which gave a lovely view down the harbourside. But - the hotel is... More

I reserved a couple of months in advance, and although they asked for my credit card number, they advised me that they wouldn't charge a deposit. I just had to pay when I got there, and 57 euro for a room with a queen bed, bathroom with a nice tub and a great view of the port, is a pretty... More

Great location. We were there a week. No elevator, and we were on the fifth floor at first, but the landlord moved us to 2nd floor. First room had only a plastic curtain between the bedroom and the WC. Our second room had separate shower and toilet - handy. M. Malherbe the landlord did not speak English but was friendly... More

The room was in the midst of renovations most of which were done by the time I stayed there. The bathroom was all that was left. The toilet and shower were in separate areas-- good for friends travelling together. The decor was mod. The best part was the amazing view of the port. Imagine sunsets in France looking at a... More
