Castel Bayeux Guesthouse

Great hotel for the $.

Convenient to Tapestry museum and town. Short drive to D Day sights.

Spent 4 night to do tours and see Bayeux Tapestry. Lovely welcome.Very close to rail station town and Tapestry. Lots of lovely restaurants closeby. Make sure you are there by 7pm or most were fully booked. Lovely to hear cathedral bell ringing from our room. Room comfortable and breakfast nice. Enjoyed our stay at discounted price.

Needs upkeep in grounds and rooms. Our was smallest, in front open window on busy street. Beds were well used and needs replacement. Breakfast included but short on selections. Left a night early, although prepaid.

Hotel had time range that you were required to check in by. We arrived early, saw the note that they were not there and went on to see town. Came back with about an hour left on the check in time and still no one available. Called the phone number and left messages. By this time another couple was calling as well. About 30 min later, with about 30 min left on the check in window, a lady entered the property apologizing for being late. She unlocked the door and gave us a quick run down on the city which would have been great if we had not already taken a couple of hours to check it out for ourselves. She asked what time for breakfast and we offered 9 a.m. At 9 a.m. we came to the dinning room to find the table with dirty dishes. We sat down thinking someone would come soon to clear but they did not. I went to the kitchen and relayed several place settings had dishes needing removed. The brunett replied that the blonde lady would do. After several more minutes, I went back to the kitchen, no one there, and found a plate to help myself. Much had already been consumed. No one ever came back to check on the table. We decided we'd waited too late for breakfast. The next morning we arrived at 8 a.m. to find a nice table with an assortment of cold breakfast items and dishes cleared promptly. Perhaps it was just an off 24 hours but it was disappointing. We expected better service for the price. On good note, location is within walking distance to many attractions.
