I travel a lot, but for the first time I saw such a sociable atmosphere in a beautiful country chateau with a great youth life and a light haze of the old days. A beautiful summer terrace, made in the style of the beginning of the last century, with a cozy pool for children and an excellent tennis court. Every morning I could walk with my dog ​​through the dense forest, which is a great rarity for France. My Russian greyhound could hunt for roe deer and feel the real smell of nature. The space and wealth of all the guests of the cities from Great Britain, Poland and Slovenia showed how friendly we all are, people, and ready for peace on the planet in the name of joint creation. This is the goal of my communication platform Repostage, which I have been doing for 6 years.

FAQs about hotels in Normandy

Remembering the Past, Relishing the Present

Bordered by the English Channel, Normandy is a sleepy French region that sees many visitors arrive via its major seaports – Cherbourg, Dieppe, Le Havre and Ouistreham.

Between these last 2 is Deauville, home to some of the most exclusive Normandy hotels by the beach. Its pristine sands and international film festival have secured its prestige for the glitterati. The surrounding region of Calvados is famous for its cider and brandy, and Normandy also home to camembert cheese.

Calvados was also the site of the Allied landings and Booking.com has a great range of B&Bs and hotels near D-Day beaches. Caen, the Normandy capital, is a lovely city that houses the Memorial for Peace, a museum detailing the effects of conflict, and World War II in particular. North of here in Bénouville is Pegasus Bridge, while the D-Day beaches span from Ouistreham to Arromanches, home to another of Normandy’s WWII museums.

Inland is the Bayeux tapestry, a huge, hand-stitched depiction of the Norman conquest of England. Off the region’s western shores are the Channel Islands, while at its south-west corner are Avranches and nearby Mont Saint-Michel, accessed via a causeway.

Other Normandy attractions include Rouen, a historic city with colourful, half-timbered houses and an archaeology museum housing finds from the Roman amphitheatre down the Seine River in Lillebonne.

    This place is amazing and is truly underrated (as per reviews). Location is simply wonderful. Houses are nice, cozy, two floors, close to the sea no matter in which building your room is (had garden house). Our room was very nice, good noise isolation, had terrace and bed was very comfortable. No issue there for us as there was no reception in the building we stayed as reception is easy to get to - it is short walking distance. When registering we were offered to have a booking at the restaurant- very thoughtful and nice. We also decided to extend our stay and we were very happy how the request was handled starting from very prompt communication and ending with our luggages being handled by a staff. Great service! Breakfast was good. The only thing I missed was hot meal option e.g., pancakes; scrambled eggs or similar but that could be more cultural thing so not much of a deal breaker. Coffee was very tasty and very tasty pastries. Of course, must try the restaurant! Great staff and very tasty food, good vibe!

Our breakfast was brought in a picknick basket to the room and prepared from a wide range of delicious things we could choose from for every taste. Everyone of the hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Many thanks!

    I was in Deauville for the Bridge Festival, so chose the location for that reason. However, I would say that some of the restaurants in Deauville are not great value or quality and prefer to eat in Trouville where there is better choice and value in my opinion. It is all down to personal taste, obviously many wealthy Parisians and foreign visitors like to be in Deauville, for the beach and top hotels. Relative to Trouville it is quite smart, but Trouville is more lively and overall more interesting. Next time, I will stay in Trouville although it is more of a walk to the casino.

    Beautiful town, great location to take a trip to Normandy beaches. The tapestries were moved to the UK and the Tapestry museum closed on Sept 1st for two years! Most restaurants were closed on Sunday and Monday and you definitely need a reservation for dinner if you want a good meal. some restaurants were closed on Tuesday too! If you take a full day tour of Normandy I would suggest staying the night at Bayeux because there is traffic at the end of the day heading back to Paris.

    We arrived in late afternoon at hotel and toured island first in evening hours - great idea as less crowded and still light enough to wander the streets and alleys. Toured the abbey the next morning - around 11. Already getting crowded - should have started earlier. But well organized and flows well within the Abbey. Well worth the visit to see this unique and historic structure - magical.

    Have been to Dieppe many times previously and love it. Lovely views, next to the harbour and sea, great choice of restaurants, although we are addicted to Le Tout Va Bien, which suits us perfectly. The only downside at the moment is that the main bridge for easy access to the sea front and harbour is closed. I gather work is 10 months behind schedule, and the tortuous diversion for motorists is very poorly signposted..:(

    Cherbourg is dominated by a huge harbour where your ferry comes in. The town itself is long from east to west, spreading out from the harbour. From north to south it is much smaller. The harbour area and the promenades are worth walking around and the central area at the Place Charles de Gaulle is the best area to relax in. It's also the ideal town from which to see other nearby attractions, such as a D-Day beach, the Bayeux Tapestry and Mont-St-Michel, all of which I visited. One word of warning - the French railway service isn't the best. The trains are subjected to many cancellations and delays and the ticket machines in the stations frequently refuse to give you a ticket! Railway problems aside, the town of Cherbourg and other parts of Normandy are worth a holiday and I'm so glad I went.
