Overall Ratings & Reviews ibis Caen Porte d'Angleterre

Friendly, helpful and very accommodating front staff. Breakfast was great - lots of options - especially like the variety of breads, jams and eggs. Beds were very comfy. After a long and busy day at the sights and museum in Caen, we arrived about 7 pm expecting to have a nice dinner and a glass of wine. Unfortunately the dining room was closed because they were hosting a bus tour group. Ugh!! rather disappointing - the staff suggested several local restaurants or take out. So we decided on a pizza take-out and when I went back down to the desk to have them help me order, the kitchen staff took pity on a little old lady and made us a very nice meal with salad - and a big glass of wine. That was a sign of "above and beyond" and very much appreciated. A suggestion would be have a portion of the restaurant partitioned off for guests who are not on a tour - even just a portable type screen. Interestingly enough we were from Canada and we could hear the people in the tour group talking about "back home in Canada" The dining room is beautifully appointed - outdoor patio looked very inviting - just that the weather didn't cooperate. Liked the parking lot - felt safe leaving the car overnight - rather than in a public parking lot or on the street. Very quiet - had a great sleep Would definitely stay again - and recommend it to others.

Excellent location for the ferry. Very clean. Excellent meal in the evening.

Good location for ferry. Friendly helpful staff. Clean room and fresh linen and towels.

It was a quick book-in, room lovely. Lovely outlook into trees so very quiet and not overlooked. Just stayed for the night but 15 minutes traffic-free drive to the ouistreham ferry.

Hotel staff were helpful and friendly. Room was comfortable. Local area very quiet. Breakfast plentiful and tasty,

Very pleasant staff. Comfortable room. Good breakfast. Safe parking.

The hotel was perfect for what we wanted as it was close to ferry port. We were able to drive to local places but also a short walk from the hotel and you can get a tram into Caen which also has a train station if needed. The breakfast was lovely and the room was basic but clean.

Paid extra for a renovated room but didn’t get one

Paid extra for a renovated room but didn’t get one , bed not as good (we stayed in a renovated room last time) On the whole it’s a good stay

Clean, modern, comfortable.

Quiet, clean and decent breakfast selection.

Quick stop over after coming off the ferry. All good. Great secure parking and easy route in and out from main routes. Staff were excellent. Good breakfast.

We had a family room which had 2 bedrooms and slept 5, the room was large enough and well laid out for a family. We only stayed one night prior to catching the Ferry the following morning, which was convenient being only a 15min drive and easy to navigate.

We have arrived late at night as came from night time ferry, the potter who welcomed us was very friendly. Room was nice and had separate bedroom for kids. It was a very modern and clean room, although beds could be more comfortable as they seemed to be on a quite firm side. Very powerful shower was great, and really needed after a hot day out. Despite very hot weather room was kept cool at nice temperature. Breakfast was very nice, and had a lot of choice, so even our fussy little man found something to have. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Set in a residential area but very comfortable with a fantastic breakfast. Highly recommend!

The hotel was old with small rooms, which was expected being an Ibis. However, the area is awfully. Kids riding motorcycles, no helmets and balaclavas pulling wheelies in the street and on footpaths. The area is not pleasant and I would say to be avoided especially at night.

we arrived on motorcycles and had booked this hotel because it had a restaurant as there are no other places within walking distance....however the restaurant was SHUT...so we had to resort to a very expensive pizza delivery...there was no indication on the booking that there was no food available

The staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a good variety, the dinner menu was. Little light for choice but the food was good. Room was clean, bathroom felt a bit tired.

Clean and comfortable stay with decent facilities.

Lovely family room with two inner rooms. Simple, small and functional.
