“Disappointing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2009

On arrival we booked in to the Hotel and were shown to two double rooms, one for my husband and myself the other for our daughter and her 2 year old son. We asked if it was possible for one of the rooms to be a twin but was told no. The rooms were clean, if rather dated, one in particular was dingy and in need of decoration. Carpets would have been nice.
The breakfast was Continental and as expected. However there was only ever one member of staff trying to look after several couples, he did very well making coffee, tea clearing tables and doing the washing up.
The bar was very limited, on our first evening we ordered wine but there wasn't any so they had to go to the Supermarket across the road to buy some. Out of the four nights of our stay the bar was only open once on our return from having supper.

“Good location, priced right, easy parking, everything as advertised”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2009

We stayed here in early July, and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the room. The bed was comfortable, everything worked well, and the room was clean. A little hard to find, although it is on one of the main roads. Park across the street in the market parking lot until you register, you can use their parking lot afterwards, as the rooms are at the back of the reception area, and the driveway provides easy access. A very nice setting, the courtyard is alive with flowers. Reception was a little slow though, but check-out was very efficient (different person). We did not eat at the hotel, as we find it cheaper to find a small bakery in the morning. Most hotels breakfasts in France are overpriced, so, unless you're stuck in a remote location, or are a big eater, avoid paying the 8 to 18 Euros they expect. The hotel is just a short walk from the harbour, which is very pretty, and full of dockside restaurants and shops. A very nice stay.

“Don't book this room”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 September 2008

person found this review helpful

Having stayed at the hotel 2 years ago we were expecting a decent stay. We had booked a 4 bedded room, as we have 2 young children, and were offered a superior 4 bedded room. On turning up at the hotel we were taken to their anex rooms which were across the road, away from main hotel, and led up a three flights of stairs, with loose banisters and broken windows on the landings. On entering the room, whilst looking recently decorated and with new flat screen TV, there was strong smell of drains and paint. In the bathroom a brick had been removed from the bath panel. No fore alarm, smoke alarms or fire escape and staff rooms all round.
On check out complaint was met with rudeness and the comment that the hotel was full and it was upto them if any compensation was to be offered for our terrible stay. Reception person begrudgingly offered a paltry 10euro discount, no appology.
Anyone booking the 4 bedded superior room - Don't do it.

“Good location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 July 2008

We stayed here for two nights in June, and the hotel itself is a small courtyard surrounded by rooms on two floors. The rooms are clean and tidy and our bed was very comfortable, but the decorator seems to have a liking for the colour pink. The staff are very friendly and there's a small bar which also has an entrance from the street, so you get a few locals in there adding to the atmoshpere. The very best thing about this place is it's location. It's a little more than five minutes walk to the harbour, so it's perfect for reaching the restaurants and bars which are plentiful. Would stay here again.

“good stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 April 2008

person found this review helpful

We stayed for 2 nights at Easter. Hotel room good - spacious
with a recently refurbished bathroom. Parking was a nightmare -
no chance on site so we were forced to park a few streets
away and walk.A real mismatch of decor/surroundings-
some still vaguely french intermixed with oriental -thai??.
However this did not spoil our stay - location was excellent
an easy walk to Honfleurs lovely bars and restaurants.
We would return should we revisit Honfleur.
