ibis Caen Centre Hotel 3 stars

Super

The Ibis reception and restaurant were closd but used the Mercure.The Mercure bar was closed.

The staff at breakfast were inhospitable and rude.

That was open for few lost people in the Covid-19 period! Thank you very much. I'm really gratefully for your kindness and your hospitality!

Nice and comfortable, smiling people at reception and Bar.

Clean room, comfortable bed, nice breakfast, friendly staff.... thankyou very much.

We stayed here overnight to break up a journey from Folkestone to Quimper. There’s a small amount of parking nearby and a selection of great restaurants and cafes. We visited the small local market before we left on Sunday and picked up fine cheese and bread. The bar is great, very cosy and a good selection of wines available by the glass. The rooms are clean and quiet with a great shower. We ate breakfast, a good selection of hot items or continental style including cook your own boiled eggs or the option to have a fried egg cooked to order. The juice was fresh squeezed. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. We are breaking our journey here on the way back. It’s a convenient location for local sights (we loved William the Conqueror’s castle) and the Normandy beaches.

Evrey things were OK. But a too little dustbin near thé coffee machine near the reception desk. Sée others remarks un m'y réservation inquest. In instead of un. Bests regards. Stéphane C. scanov s. dit Steve Scanov. Sée m'y website : www.c2skame.com.( see and my instead of sée and m'y

Excellently located hotel, within easy walking distance of sights, shops and restaurants. We have visited previously and it was nice to return. We would have no hesitation in recommending the hotel to others.

Excellent place

Room basic but very clean and comfortable. Ideal for 1-night stay. Very close to all the amenities of Caen. Safe underground car parking with lift to Reception area in main building. No bar or restaurant, but could use facilities in Mercure Hotel adjoining.

This Ibis is next to the Mercure (easy to confuse with other Ibis located a few blocks away. At Harbor and easy walk to historic district, restaurants etc. Very comfortable rooms, bed very comfy and very clean bath. breakfast the next morning was excellent. Would recommend.

Ibis Caen is value for money. But the rooms are a bit depressing and in need of brightening up. The bed toppers where comfortable but kept slipping off. Excellent breakfasts. But unfortunately no restaurant.

I have used this hotel for visits to a family member living in Caen for over 10 years. It has always been well suited to our needs - until now. In the past the breakfast has been a highlight, especially when they introduced small home baked gluten free rolls. Not now! The run up to the D Day celebrations was not adequately prepared for, inspite of several pre-booked coach parties - including 'Beyond Band of Brothers' from Dallas. From 6:30am to 9:30am Breakfast was over run by crowds of Brothers and Sisters living out their 'America First' identity. There were no extra staff on duty, and the single helper was run off his feet. There was no manager present helping out with the exceptional and entirely predictable circumstances. As a result the juice ran out, the bacon and scrambled egg was cold and not replenished on time. The home baked GF rolls have been replaced by microwave rolls in cellophane, which are often under cooked and have a cold heart, etc etc I made a comprehensive complaint to the front desk manager (no catering manager available at breakfast time!)and they had the decency not to charge for the three rubbish breakfasts. There was one good news story for which I expressed my thanks: I couldn't sleep and ss there is no hot drinks kit in the room, I went down to the nightwatchman in the Adjacent Mercure at 4:30am and he kindly fetched me the double black expresso which kick starts the French work day! This was a management failing; I hope reinforcing troops will be recruited and trained before D-Dat.

No restaurant, no bar snacks only room service. Bar closes early each evening. Parking €12 a night. More if leave car over 24 hours. Reception not always staffed as this hotel part of the Mercure adjoining it.
