The continental breakfast spread includes chocolate chip cakes and St. Michel biscuits alongside the usual suspects.

This strikingly traditional former hunting lodge is surrounded by the Andaine Forest (hello, tranquil views).

Comfy lodgings in a quiet area, but perfectly located for storming the beaches or the cafés.

Heated seasonal pool is covered so you can go sunscreen free(!). Plan to check out the Caen Memorial, or hit Festyland theme park.

Located in the heart of the CITIS biz district, just a short ride to the centre and minutes from the D-Day Beaches.

Perfect for golf and history buffs, hotel sits on a golf course and minutes from Omaha Beach.

Minimalist-chic meets mid-century style vibe throughout is on-point.

WWII history buffs, rejoice. This is a dream-stay for the D-Day beaches obsessed. (You’ll sleep well in that bed tonight.)

Pleasant stay in the heart of Caen. Steps from the tramway and a train station, you're well positioned for seeing the city.

Pet-friendly, with free WiFi? Bring that furry fella along. You can watch movies together, or check the weather to see if you need one of those dog-sweaters.

Tasty food and drinks are at the ready at onsite GourmetBar.

Well-placed in the centre, near the beach – with an onsite snack bar, plus a shared coffeemaker, fridge and microwave.

Free Internet for those who get itchy at the thought of going WiFi-less.

Tranquil setting along the Touque, with Deauville beaches just 4km away. (PS: D-Day sights are a must.)

Rustic-luxe rooms blend quaint country comfort with an upscale feel.

Well-located spot 1km from the centre and 2 from the SNCF train station. Juuust far enough out of the bustle to be nice and quiet.
