Hotels With bar in Normandy, France

Besides being a wonderful hotel, it is wonderfully maintained and maintained by wonderful people, we have taken care of us in an exceptional way and I can tell you that they are people who are really trained to their career As there are rarely in France, this hotel deserves five stars

The hotel is on a small hillside and you can see the magnificent English Channel, very beautiful! You have to take the stairs to enter the room, but the waiter will help with luggage. The room decoration is more retro and feels special. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to Elephant Trunk Hill Beach, which is very convenient. The seafood restaurant on the beach is very cost-effective and worth tasting.

It's conveniently located near the station, and the rooms are clean and spacious. Breakfast is included, making the price economical. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, offering a wide range of menu options. The staff are also friendly.

We were greeted courteously at reception, and our room was ready 1.5 hours before check-in. The hotel offers paid parking, but with a free EV charger. It's a very convenient 15-minute walk from the city center.

We booked this hotel because it was in a château and it looked romantic and unique .However there were many details lacking overall. Firstly avoid the restaurant at all costs even though the three course meal was only €29. The food preparation and quality was terrible. Please see attached photos. The salmon I had was overcooked from frozen salmon and the greens were likely frozen greens that were boiled to mush and no longer green. The risotto was just rice coated in some weird cream and had some tasteless pieces of chicken slapped on top. We did not finish the food. They clearly also need more staff as our receptionist was doubling up as a waitress, and we noticed that there were some waits and gaps in service. The room was compact and clean, but the details were lacking. For example, the fixtures and appliances were the cheapest variety possible and didn’t match the Luxe feel that the hotel is going for. The location is slightly out of town and a 20 minute walk to all the main sites in the old town. The grounds were tidy and very pretty in photos.

If you want to experience La vraie vie de chateau (a real life a a castle owner) this is your choice. Only 5 rooms available, very private, feels like you are in your own chateau… fabulous park and setting around the main building, was told there are other separate “mini” houses in the park , and you can go watch the horses…. And admire the view on the valley. Our room: we booked the round bedroom … the center bedroom on the 1st floor…. Fabulous place, need a bit of upgrade in the bathroom… if anything… but seriously felt like a châtelain… as we reached early, we were welcomed by one of the sons of the owners who took us around the private wing, “his house”, and told us everything about the mansion history as well as hotel business. A great interaction with a friendly castle owner and businessman. They also have a snooker, a gym and sauna…. I mean… what else do you want!!! We had to go out for dinner (at L’Hermitage) which the owner booked for us. Breakfastwas served in the salons…. Stylish French dépit déjeuner, served by a dynamic, friendly and frank lady. Just go. Dont hesitate.

Not much to say … only good stuff! Nice welcome at reception when we checked in earlier than planned. We got touristic advice to go around and they kept our big suitcases. We unfortunately didn’t get parking as they were full.. all reserved (NB: trip.com never discussed that we had to book the parking, this is something Accor and Trip.com should discuss about as this is now our 2nd encounter of this problem…. Coming from Malaysia and renting a car, this is not helping… we had no idea we had to reserve parking) The bedroom was very nice, pretty balcony but small bathroom… especially given the placement of the toilet…. lol. But never mind. Nice deck of the bedroom and the hotel too… themed on Christian Dior and fashion, we liked that ☺️ Last the breakfast and its location: beautiful. The view of the sea is really good, the furniture is nicely chosen, and the food is good. First time I see a « make your sunny side up eggs yourself » set in a hotel, which was cool.

Check-in was smooth, our room was available immediately at 3pm check-in time which was important as we had to rush for our abbey tour. Front desk staff can speak English and are helpful and friendly, offering to help us with our bags as our room was on the second floor and there are no lifts in the 2-level building. Room-wise is small and rather basic but clean and toilet is separate from shower which is good. Single beds are also small but okay for us. The location is its greatest plus point, with the shuttle bus stop just outside the hotel. Plenty of parking lots available. Good for a one night stay to visit MSM.

This time I chose to stay at the Auberge Saint Pierre Hotel. It is easy to find. Enter Mount Saint Michel and follow the main road to enter the city gate and walk to the storefront of 3-4. Outside the window is the mountain road that extends in all directions. The room is spacious and bright enough. The hot water for washing hands and the hot water for bathing in the bathroom are two pipes. The hot water for the shower is cold for 10 minutes, and the hot water for washing hands is second. Finally, you can wash your hair with the hot water of the wash basin. Then the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel was full of people. The fish and lamb chops we ordered were not as delicious as the waiter recommended, and there was some stomach trouble afterward. It was not recommended for eating.

We reached Erawan pretty late, at dark, in a snow day. Because communication channel with Trip.com did g allow the owner to reach us (phone nor email), we reached an empty, closed venue. Which I have to stay is pretty upsetting when it is -2 outside. However, after few phone calls, and relevant explanations, we got welcomed warmly by the owner and the neighbor business owner and we moved in accordingly. Thank you to the neighbor businessman to help us carry our heavy luggage till the 2nd floor!! Beautiful house and deco; beautiful bedroom BUT, extremely cold toilet and bathroom (supposed to be a hammam??? We never found the way to turn it into a hammam…. It is gorgeous…. But… damn cold!) Again, the house is very beautifully decorated which was so nice to experiment for breakfast. Do try this place which bedrooms names are themed on Thailand! :-)
