Absolutely amazing stay. The location could not be better right in the centre of the old town area. The surrounding area had endless shops, cafes and restaurants in amazingly picturesque buildings. Victor could not do enough to ensure our stay was special. We had breakfast at the hotel and it was beautiful fresh local produce and bakery items. Victor also suggested some places for dinner and we were amazed at the quality of the food and the very reasonable prices at all of them. We would love to come again.

Quiet and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive. It’s good that they have their own car park, even though it is a five minute walk away. Breakfast was good and it was quiet at night. We would certainly return.

Wonderful stay in Honfleur! Victor at reception was so incredibly friendly and helpful with parking, dinner recommendations and information. He alone made it a great visit. Hotel and restaurant have different owners now and hotel is small but worth it on harbor and in the midst of old town.

After a delayed flight we almost arrived too late to check but the host at front desk called to check on our arrival then helpedwith our bags and even managed to get us the last table at the amazing restaurant next door for their last seating. Perfect location and loved walking and exploring the next morning. Would love to go back!
