Hôtel d'Argouges

This is the perfect hotel in Bayeux. It is a short 10 minute walk to the Cathedral and downtown area. It has old world elegance downstairs with tapestries on the wall and chandeliers. The garden in the back is beautiful and relaxing. There is a full breakfast that we also enjoyed. The staff is all friendly and very helpful, including Gloria the dog. The room has a modern bathroom. It is an excellent value for the price.

Great location, friendly staff, spacious family apartment. Our room was right by the front door so it was a little loud at nigh. But otherwise it was great! Highly recommend.

This hotel breaks every notion of a bad experience in France. They have worked around our schedule, let us relax in the lobby after our stay was over, made dinner and cab reservations, tried to get the car rental company to do their job. Ive is a real go getter, never slows down, go go go. When Eva was not letting Gloria in and out, she ensured every guest who checked in was informed of all the services available. Breakfast, evening bar. Every one made an English only speaker like me feel right at home. We got in late the first night and Lisa pointed us to a late dinner at a wonderful place. I think I had one of the best gin and tonic ever. This place is the perfect place to visit Normandy from. We miss the famous tapestry (maybe come back to see it) it is in London on loan.

Would you stay in this room? Room 13 is suitable only for storage. It does not match the description or pictures on the website. Quite awful. Small, characterless, unromantic and via opaque windows your view is completely obscured by the back of a shed. No water, kettle or complimentary tray. Damp toilet paper. If you make a complaint, do it immediately. Otherwise the hotel will refuse to compensate you and will ignore subsequent correspondence. Don't book Hotel d'Argouges in Bayeaux. Your romantic stay may well be ruined.

We stayed at this hotel in October last year as part of our road trip to the Loire Valley. The property is truly stunning, resembling a small château discreetly tucked away from the main street in Bayeux. Rich in history, the hotel retains many beautiful period features, particularly in the guest rooms, which add greatly to its character. The rooms were very quiet, and we had a wonderful nights sleep. The hotel staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming, and communication was easy despite our limited French. Adding to the hotel’s charm was a delightful small dog who happily followed guests around. In the evening we went for a walk into the centre of Bayeux which was around a 10 minute walk where there were plenty of places to eat and drink if you wanted to go exploring into the town instead. Breakfast the following morning was thoroughly enjoyable, with a wide and varied selection available. As we were travelling in a classic car, we also greatly appreciated the secure off-road parking provided in the inner courtyard, which offered both convenience and peace of mind.
