The room was small but perfectly adequate. The breakfast was excellent, best of all it was included in the rate. The hotel was well located, within easy walking distance of some interesting restaurants. On street parking was available but was limited to 5 hours at a time. Underground parking was available nearby but essentially it served the supermarket and restaurants located above. It proved to be expensive for overnight parking.

The Reception staff were excellent, as were the waiters at dinner. The restaurant was well laid out and the menu was excellent and reasonably priced. The waiter accidentally spilt some beer on me and was so apologetic we had to reassure him it was fine. When paying, we were told all our drinks were free because of the incident - a nice touch.

Surrounded by Normandy countryside, Caen is a proud city which pays poignant tribute to its past. It suffered greatly during World War II and although most damage has been carefully rebuilt, one monument remaining partly in ruins is Saint-Étienne-le-Vieux church.
It sits opposite a floral park overlooked by the stately 11th-century Abbaye aux Hommes, built by William the Conqueror, who is buried here. His wife is buried in the equally grand Abbaye aux Dames by an even larger park to the east. Between the 2 lies another of William’s creations – the remarkably intact 11th-century Norman castle which now houses museums of Normandy history and fine art.
Another unmissable museum is the Memorial for Peace, a sensitive portrayal of the horrors of war, with particular emphasis on the D-Day landings on beaches north of the city. One road leading there passes Pegasus Bridge and the large Caen-Ouistreham passenger ferry port. The city is also served by Carpiquet Airport and a train station.
The surrounding streets are lined with shops and restaurants, and there are a few half-timbered buildings dotted around. The bars on Rue Ecuyére offer some of the best nightlife and are popular with the large student population.
Booking.com’s range of Caen accommodation includes luxury hotels, cheap B&BS and apartments with parking.

The city is friendly and it is easy and cheap to get around using public transport. There are good restaurants, we can highly recommend Le Carlotta, great food, wine and a warm welcome.
Tips for visiting Normandy sites.
We used the 12 bus to visit Pegasus Bridge and Ranville Cemetery. Do not get on the 12 EX as this is the express bus and does not use the same route!
However, reaching the British Memorial at Ver-Sur-Mer from Caen in September proved impossible on public transport and a taxi was needed.

We mainly stayed in Caen for the Ferry crossing to the UK.
We mainly stayed in Caen for the Ferry crossing to the UK.
There are many places to visit and a short drive to
Ouistreham and the D Beaches, which we found very interesting to visit and a big part of history.
In Caen at the top to the right of the Chateau/castle there is a court place area of beautiful restaurants, a bit hidden away, worth finding.

It was an awesome place in the heart of the city with a lot of things to do and to explore around. We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was perfectly sized for a short trip, it was clean and well organized. The host provided all required information proactive and responded quickly to any questions we had.

There is enough to see an do for at least a good three/four day stay. Lots of great museums and churches to visit. We ate in the old part of the city which was lovely and the food and atmosphere were great. There seems to be great public transport and a free tourist bus. We were also lucky enough to catch the large Sunday market.

Caen has got everything. A racetrack, a canal with boats.
Caen has got everything. A racetrack, a canal with boats. The resting places of both William the conqueror and Maltide his wife. A museum that details the bombardment in World war two in photographs and objects is housed in the Hotel de Ville. It is a modest collection, but all the better for that. Caen was bombed extensively in the war, entirely by allied bombing. There is a city bus line 6a and 6b that takes you all around the city, in a circular route, so you can get everywhere easily.

Would have loved to spend more time wandering the streets,...
Would have loved to spend more time wandering the streets, as we only really had one full day to explore.
Loved the Abbey des Hommes where tomb of William the Conquerer is, could have spent more time exploring this site.
Seemed to be lots of inviting restaurants, so again if we'd stayed longer could have tried out a lot more of what was on offer.
The property was clean, comfortable and was easy to access. The shower was great. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfortable. My favorite feature was The views of the castle and old gothic church from the terrace. Lovely spot to have coffee in the mornings. The automatic shades on the windows were a wonderful touch. The parking pass was also a great. Lots of restaurants and bars close by. Our family of four enjoyed our stay. Caen is a great place to stay if visiting the Normandy area.
We have stayed at this hotel before and this visit was just as good as the last. The location is excellent right in the centre of historic Caen and everything is within walking distance.
The staff are friendly and efficient and our room was spotlessly clean and everything worked (internet, air-con etc), and the bed was one of the most comfortable I've slept in.
No complaints at all - we will definitely be coming back to Caen, and will definitely stay here again.
The room was small but perfectly adequate. The breakfast was excellent, best of all it was included in the rate. The hotel was well located, within easy walking distance of some interesting restaurants. On street parking was available but was limited to 5 hours at a time. Underground parking was available nearby but essentially it served the supermarket and restaurants located above. It proved to be expensive for overnight parking.
We stayed here with friends whilst visiting the D-Day landing sites. It was very clean and comfortable and the proprietors were helpful and friendly. We opted to take breakfast in the hotel which was an additional cost but at only €9 we thought this was very reasonable. Well placed to walk out into central Caen and easy access to restaurants etc. We ate at Gustave, recommended by the hotel, and it was very good!
The continental breakfast was excellent. Staff very helpful and would definitely recommend the hotel . It was very conveniently situated and we thought Caen was a great destination. The centre of Caen felt very safe, clean and a multitude of cafes and bars and a great vibe. Also for visiting Normandy beaches a great location.
Very nice hotel! The room was very clean and comfortable. Parking was on site and free, and we were within walking distance to the Caen memorial museum. Breakfast was 14 Euros, and was very good. Staff at the front desk were very nice and helpful. We enjoyed our stay!
If I could give this hotel a higher rating, I would. It was exceptional! It is very clean, the decor is beautiful, Claudette was very helpful, and the location was within walking distance of great historical sites and restaurants. We loved our stay.
This is a lovely place to stay , our room was a perfect size . Great views over the roof tops. Staff were some of the best I’ve ever come across during a lot of hotel stays . I cannot fault this place the proprietor thought of everything
The hotel is conveniently located opposite Caen train station.
It is a cheap, basic hotel and was acceptable for one night as we were passing through Caen.
We were leaving early and they were able to accomodate that for us.
Wonderful stay at Hotel La Fontaine Caen. It is well located near shops, cafes and restaurants. We were able to walk everywhere. The room was roomy, light-filled and quite comfortable.
Easy to find on the outskirts of Caen, secure parking as on a motorcycle. Near to a good restaurant as recommended by the hotel. Always the same good standard as others in the chain.
The hotel is very well located, right by Caen's city centre and commercial streets. While the room for three people was small and basic, it was pragmatic enough for a short stay
