    A perfect place to stay when visiting Bayeaux !

    Laurent was the perfect host and our stay at Camelia was delightful. The location was ideal for accessing the town on foot and it was a fairly easy walk from the train station. The accomodations were very comfortable and the shower had plenty of hot water. Laurent ensured that we had super-fresh baked goods to go with a simple but delicious breakfast every morning, including our departure day where he served us breakfast very early in the morning to ensure that we were well fed before our trip. He thoughtfully recommended some excellent restaurants and was cheerful and helpoful throughout our stay.

    Our stay was superb. If we were to be pernickety, then the only thing to improve it would be some English Breakfast tea (there was a good selection of flavoured teas and Earl Grey), and some coffee pods for the coffee maker in the room. But that is very minor criticism.

    We had Omaha Room, which was well decorated and spotlessly clean. The bedroom had two windows and the bathroom had another. The bed was at least king sized and was very comfortable, with good pillows and crisp white linen. There was also a small table and two chairs. The bathroom was well equipped and looked quite new. The shower was excellent. The location was brilliant for many great restaurants, the Bayeux Tapestry and the cathedral. Parking was free on the street. Breakfast was continental style and we even had enough to take some French bread, meat and cheese for our lunch. Laurent, the owner, is a gentleman and a very good host.

    There are lots of steep stairs which could be a hindrance if there are mobility issues.

    Camélia is located on a quiet street just a 2 minute walk to the Bayeux Tapestry museum. It’s a charming BnB, well appointed and the owner, Laurent made it even more charming. What a wonderful, warm person. We would be glad to come back and stay with Laurent again.

    We were not aware of the spiral staircase to get to the bedroom. It was a minor inconvenience but Laurent helped us with our luggage. Perhaps this could be mentioned in the listing.

    Laurent was a gracious host and was very helpful during our stay. The house and our room were spotless and very comfortable. Our breakfast was delicious and on time allowing us to get to our scheduled tour in plenty of time.

    This stay deserved a 10! We were accommodated every step of our journey. The breakfast was prepared right before our day of exploration began. It was delicious, one of the highlights of our stay. The bed was comfy, coffee delicious, room was tastefully decorated, & water pressure was nice. Location was perfect. Our host was kind & accommodating.

    There is no designated parking. It’s street parking, which was one night easy and one night difficult to find. Looking out on the street, though truly charming, also came with the problem that the bar down the street was loud until late at night.  The windows were relatively soundproof, but we like to sleep with fresh air and were not able to do this. 

    The proprietor is very nice and helpful. The room is nicely appointed with good linens, comfortable bed, two sitting chairs with tea kettle, and a really nice bathroom with a full tub, towel heater that worked, and a large sink. The location is charming, as it looks out over the old, narrow city streets. We enjoyed opening our windows to the flower boxes and the fresh air in the morning.

    The room and bath are small but for us it was not an issue.

    The location was perfect for us. Down the street there is a nice bakery and restaurant. We also did several tours and the pick up location is just a few minutes walk as well. The staff is nice and welcomed us at our desired time. The room was clean and comfortable. The fresh flowers were a nice touch.

    My only regret is that I would have liked to have spent more time in this lovely hotel and also in Bayeux

    Very cozy hotel. Beautiful, clean, with very good energy. Very hospitable host. Many thanks for his hospitality. A hotel in the heart of the breathtakingly beautiful city of Bayeux. The room was big enough for a couple. We were staying with a great view of the street. The hotel looks very clean and charming. Nice furniture, plumbing, fresh flowers. Fresh linen, new plumbing. Everything is made with the soul of its owner. Each room has its own name. We had Chambre Gold Beach. The breakfast was very good. Continental. Fresh coffee, croissants, fruits, cheeses. Bayeux Cathedral is just a 2 min by walk from the hotel. The Carpet Museum is just a 1 min walk away. We liked everything in the hotel and in the city.
