What an amazing hotel, the rooms were massive with mini fridge and coffee and tea facilities. The staff were amazing and the evening meal even though it was a set three course was priced incredibly reasonably and the food was absolutely amazing. Couldn’t recommend it any more.

Location workef great and comfortable rooms. Strange layouts with tri-level floors. Bed and toilet on first floor, shower/sinks on second, and other bed on third. We didnt use restaurant so can't comment. For basic needs and location it worked for us, but wouldn't consider a 4 star hotel.

A Castle with a view

La Bellefontaine is a beautiful castle in walking distance to Bayeaux. We got room number one and what a room. Very nice. Missed the garden view but then go one stair down and you are in the park. Nice service, exelent breakfast, and with a chill rose in the glass La Bellefontaine is one of a kind. We loved it. PS: The restaturant were closed most of the time caused to wedding etc...but there are good restaurants in Bayeux inclusive a Michelin coming up. Remeber reservation. Angelo Denmark

Pretty, handy and spacious

We had a family room in the separate building, which had a good separation across three floors (although the bathroom and upper floor were more like mezzanines). The sofa was made as a bed but was on the top floor, which might be a bit strange if we didn’t have it as a bed. Sone of the (floating) stairs wobbled and creaked. The room was clean and well presented. It was spacious enough, although I can imagine it getting a little tight for a family of four. The grounds of the hotel are beautiful, with a sweet little play area for children, open grassy space too as well as numerous places to sit and enjoy the grounds. The restaurant was not open so I cannot comment on that or the interior of the main building. The location is very handy: it is an easy 15 minute walk right into the centre of Bayeux.

The surroudings are very nice and it was quiet.
Akihito, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel was very quiet and lacked atmosphere. Nowhere to really to sit comfortably for a drink. Breakfast was supervised by a single member of staff. There was a wide choice of food but again atmosphere poor. The member of staff had obviously set up and was not around when we came down. Some tables needed cleared so we just found a seat ourselves. She then appeared and started to clear tables. She never spoke to anyone and it was a bit awkward. I think it has a lot of positives but lack of staff and atmosphere lets it down.

A great find in Bayeux

A classic French hotel with a wonderful restaurant, this was a great place to stay in Bayeux. The garden and grounds on a summer evening could not have been more enjoyable. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the room was comfortable.

Beautiful grounds and setting. Room comfortable and large. Staff not very friendly.
Paul, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a lovely hotel. The rooms were great, breakfast was delicious and the property is picturesque. The only room for improvement is with the staff that seemed to be in short supply. They were long delayed (past 24 hours Expedia promises) in responding to email and failed to provide info on basic questions

Great place to stay in Bayeux

Great place to stay - remarkably cheap too. We had a duplex family room in the annex next to the main building, but was very large, very well decorated and would have slept 5, with two bathrooms. You could walk into Bayeux if you wanted but it’s easier to drive into the city (5 mins max). Only point to note is that despite what it says on the hotels.com listing, there is definitely no swimming pool!

Wonderful Stay

This is a really nice chateau. The road leading up to the parking is a bit bumpy, but manageable. The hotel is really clean and beautiful. The staff were very nice as well. We enjoyed our room. It was spacious and comfortable. We loved there was a fan in our room and the soaker tub was really nice. We stayed two nights and we thought it was a really great place to stay. It was in a quiet area which we very much appreciated. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant one night. We both ordered the sea bass with mashed potatoes. The food was good, but it wasn’t memorable. The escargot was very good though, we enjoyed that the most. Overall we highly recommend this hotel. It’s in a great location to explore the area.

The property is very pretty and peaceful. It is clean and well maintained. I think they are understaff since same person serving is the receptionist. Overall will come back again.
Almer, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall lovely place to stay. Staff was great, breakfast good. Had dinner one night and it was good. Would be nice for family as there is a nice area for play. Also tennis court on the property. Not good if you want a lot of restaurants and shops close by. We were on the top floor and it was slightly musty smelling. The room and bathroom were quite large and comfortable.
Karen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Inez on reception was very helpful . If we had known that the restaurant was closed for dinner on both nights we would have booked somewhere else. Suggest breakfast window is narrowed so that it can be managed better as on second morning both orange juice machines were not working and the pastries tray was virtually empty. Would have preferred a bathroom with a walk in shower.
Antony, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff at the chateau were accommodating and helpful. It did appear that they were understaffed in that the same young woman working the dining room was also responsible for front desk responsibilities. The main building is beautiful with an elegant sitting room, dining room, and breakfast area. The outer building room where we stayed, accommodating four adults was clean and comfortable. I will say that room 22 could use a bigger sink and a vanity. There is plenty of room for it. In all it was a clean, comfortable, safe place to spend a few nights while in Bayeux. Although appearing to be in the countryside, it is an easy walk to the beautiful town center and its many shops and restaurants.
Michael, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The chateau is very old. Our room was on floor one and stairs lean a bit to one side. No air conditioning which would be a problem with any heat as they have moats of swampy water next to hotel so imagine insects would be an issue. We did not feel comfortable leaving window open and room was hot while sleeping . Our mattress was too soft leaning to one side so old. Room was not great and small! Stayed 3 nights worst stay of trip but still average and rate was good. Skipped breakfast as it looked bad for the expense. Did not eat dinner at chateau just walked 20 min to dining options. Parking was great to have but would not stay there again! Staff was nice
Richard, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

With a few little tweaks this idyllic chateau could be truly top-notch. It's quirky, but elegant. Pros: Beautiful grounds, tennis courts, little bistro tables scattered about. Friendly staff. Bathroom on #14 was large and the hot towel rack was so luxurious. Quiet. Beds and linens very comfortable. Housekeeping did a nice job refreshing the room when we wanted, but left us alone when we didn't. Cons: Sometimes there's a language barrier. The restaurant service was stellar and the setting was gorgeous, but the food was average. We had beef carpaccio, salad with bacon, steamed salmon and steamed sea bass and a brownie with caramel sauce. It's a decent option if you don't want to walk 18 minutes into town. The room had 4 packets of tea and it would be 50 cents per package after that. Seems petty and nit-picky. The larger garbage can was for paper, while the small bathroom can was for everything else. Again, odd. There's an elegant water dispenser in the reception area flanked by a cabinet with European adapters and knick knacks. It all sounds trivial, but it detracts from the potential upscale experience. There are updated lighting options, plugs, entry locks, shower fixtures then there's a seat cushion hole in the elegant lounge. Details matter. The stairway is gorgeous, but the elevator makes the upper floors accessible with luggage. If you're walking from the train (< 20 min) you will have to carry your bags down the gravel driveway. Lovely stay, but could be stellar!
