I travel extensively and Very seldom have I ever left a bad review. This Hotel is really a boarding house with the name Hotel attached. I will be attaching photos. It's dirty and much mold in the shower. The carpet is almost non existent and worn down similar to felt and was like walking on concrete. We kept our socks on all the time because of the scrunchy carpet. The room was cold and finally I was able to explain we needed a heater. The toilet often took a couple flushes to work. Not sure what that was about. There is No common area to use to chat with friends or other guests. Just a tiny landing as you came into the door that was often filled with dirty laundry bags. We had a friend there also but we had to meet in our room. The dining area was so small and the house keeper kept coming through with laundry holding bags over our heads. We attempted to find other lodging immediately after seeing the hotel and our room but we were in Caeñ for 5 nights with a friend but no place was available for that long of a stay. Warning: I would not bring my children here. I don't know who the owner is but an inspection is needed.

Bien situé, hôtel d'une étoile qui en vaut 2 ou 3. Chambre bien équipée, calme, hôtel plein de charme.

Great room friendly staff and just a few minutes walk to everywhere in Caen

Chambre petite mais très bien entretenue

- Every thing is old, the restroom is as small as the ones on an airplane. + The staff member was lovely and helpful. - Lack of communication + convenient location

Great location, super cute hotel. Rooms are a little small, but that was expected. Loved our stay here!

nice space in a good part of town , but there are you g people living or staying up stairs that like to party so be warned

This was a lovely quaint hotel, nice room filled with character, no lift, ultra convenient location

wasn't aware I'd booked breakfast and was charged for it even though I didn't have any on the first morning . also there's road works being carried out around the hotel which isn't there fault but the temporary road covers make a load noise though the night

Breakfast was OUTSTANDING!!! The service was impeccable! Well done, An idle example :-D

Tout est ok charme à l'ancienne. Joli quartier historique. à recommander !

It's a lovely place to stay with lots of character.

Impossible de se laver dans lavabo car étagère trop grande du coup d'ouvrir la porte pour se pencher la figure au dessus , WC contre le lavabo donc gymnastique, tâche de coulure sur les murs, grand cheveux et autres déchet humains sous le drap, déjeuner compliqué car sur une table de huit personnes dans l'accueil j'ai était obligé de me lever et de sortir de ma place assise car le livreur de linge passé entre ma place et l'accueil pour déposer le propre et reprendre le salle ce qui n'empêche pas que ma housse de matelas était anormalement salle,de plus les chambres 11 et 10 ont un bruit strident au dessus du plafond dur dur pour dormir, il n'y a pas je répète pas de place de parking et donc il est très compliqué de se garer au plus près pour nous ont s'est garer a 500 m le premier soir puis à 100 le deuxième soir car il était 21 h et ont à tourner un peu comme le premier soir

The room was spacious enough with a kitchen and decent sized bathroom. The major drawback is that the room was located across the street from the checkin area. Access is poorly lit (lights are on a timer). The staircase to my room is steep and difficult to manage with luggage. The staff is friendly and the area around the hotel is safe and quiet.

Room was very small but still functional. Staff was great. We weren't used to limited check-in times, but thats ok.

The room was quaint, the staff wonderful. Great location, easy walking distance to everything.

A super-cute little hotel right on the edge of historic Caen. If Richard Curtis ever did a movie set in Normandy, you’d almost certainly end up bumping into Hugh Grant on the stairs here!

Would definitely come back. I stayed at a studio apartment across the street. It was wonderful. Parking is a challenge, but I was able to find a spot across the street. I did have to pay.

The St Etienne is charming, clean and comfortable. They serve a nice breakfast. Be aware, one cannot check in until after 5 pm, so plan accordingly. After check in you have a door code to go & go as you please. The staff is friendly & helpful! Old town Caen is a wonderful city with great town square, abbeys, Château & museums. Also a close jumping off point for Normandy area WW3 sights. Overall a great stay. Thanks!

An old property that is full of character, it's like stepping back in time. For some the basic amenitites would disappoint but for me it added to this hotels charscter and charm.
