The public areas were recently renovated and they look they look nice and up to date. Otherwise it is a standard Novotel business hotel.

Great it had an open Resturant but the staff was pushed as only one, so service good but very slow. Would definitely go back having said that.

Couldn’t have been easier….

Simple, easy check in. Towels for the pool great, quiet room. Fantastic shower and toiletries. Great family stay as a stopover.

Great facilities and gentleman that checked us in was really nice. The power cut ruined our stay as we were all sat in bed for a family movie and the power was lost on the 3rd floor for just over an hour.

Novotel generally of d high standard with a pool and a good restaurant in a quiet area of south LeMans with private parking . However lift was out of order, stairwell was incredibly smelly and room was quite smelly. Breakfast service was a lower standard than usual with slow table clearing service even at the end of the breakfast period. There is an amazing bakery La Feuilette about half a mile from the hotel providing alternatives to the paid for breakfast. Novotels normally high standards were slipping a bit on this occasion, but on balance still a great stopover midway between southern France and Calais Eurotunnel.

Unfortunately despite us having paid in full for half board for a family of 4 prior to arrival, the arrival staff had been misinformed and were only expecting a meal booking for one adult. The staff did rectify this but it was an unnecessary stress after an 11 hour drive.

Don’t eat here if you have allergies

The worst place have ever eaten as a coeliac. Daughter was given ‘penne’ as a gluten free meal. It wasn’t a gluten free version. Some staff were doing their best to help and clearly hasn’t been given any training on allergies. One member of staff (and the allergen menu) said chips were gf, the next member of staff said they were not. Do not eat here if you have allergies. The staff were lovely and just doing their best.

Nice place for a stop on the way through France. Outdoor pool and play area was great for kids! Seems everyone else had the same idea! Restaurant gets booked up quickly and we struggled to eat due to delays getting to the hotel with the now inevitable immigration delays at Caen port. Uber Eats to the hotel was a saviour. Breakfast on the other hand was utterly appalling. Came down at 0830 to find the buffet completely devoid of food and the staff very slow to react and stock up. Even then it was limited. Not sure what the issue was that a breakfast advertised to 10am was lacking 90 mins before that. If they sorted out the food and drink issues at this hotel, it would be a much better experience for all guests.

Hygiène douteuse pour un établissement de cette catégorie. Coussins de canapé tachés. Impossible de s'asseoir sur le fauteuil tellement il est sale. Du coup un gros doute sur les propreté de la moquette de la chambre. Très décevant.

Dålig service!

Bra rum med skön säng. Bra att det finns restaurang men tyvärr ingen vidare klass på maten. Frukosten mindre bra, saknade kokade ägg och bad om det. Men ingen i köket kunde ordna det. Aldrig bott på hotel som inte serverar ägg på frukosten. Personalen inte bra på engelska alls!!

There was an issue with the booking, I had booked for 3 nights, but they only had 2 nights booked on their system. Also their system was showing different prices, to the booking prices, so I had to agrue with them about the cost of each night. Lastly the aircon was not working in the bedroom, so we had to move rooms after the first night.

Hotel heeft in meerdere opzichte. Een update nodig

Het gevoel dat de 3 receptie medewerkers niet het gewenste niveau hadden. Veel onderlinge geïrriteerde discussies achter balie en dan nog niet de kamerpasjes goed voorzien van een code, zodat we weer terug moeten lopen naar de receptie. Kamers mogen een update, maar schoon en prima bedden.

A fuir ou à rénover d’urgence

L’essayer une fois … et ne pas y retourner avant la rénovation majeure que l’on espère prochaine pour les asthmatiques. Le seul point positif de cet hôtel est le veilleur de nuit
Aurélien, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

C'est très loin d'être un 4 étoiles peut-être tout juste au-dessus d' un hôtel formule 1. Je ne sais pas comment sont attribuées les étoiles mais je pense qu' il y a peut-être des dessous de table quand on s'appelle Accor. Il y a juste le prix qui correspond à cette classification. Quand au restaurant on est sur la même lignée.

Gedateerd hotel, simpele kamers voor relatief veel geld.Douchen in een soort bad. Heel jong personeel, een drankje duurt lang en tappen of mixen was niet goed. In het restaurant geen tafelwater en geen brood, simpele en normale zaken.
