Mercure Caen Centre Port de Plaisance
Lovely hotel convenient for the centre of Caen, restuarants and transport links. Staff were really friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent. Our room was lovely and comfortable. Minor issue - the ambient lighting in the room was great but we could have done with some brighter lighting ...

Clean room and amazing venue- felt very special to stay in such a nice place. Was upgraded to famil apartment however this was looking old and tired, but very good space. Comfy bed and good heating. Nice to have a bath in room. Dinner was a let down- save your money and eat at the various places ...
