Château de Bellefontaine

We choose this hotel as it provided parking, something we found difficult to get elsewhere. Our inital interaction with staff was very positive, then some not so positive (it happens everywhere). In the end, the staff saved us by arranging transportation to Paris when all the trains were booked. We were initially given a nice room on the top floor that had a tub but no shower. I have difficulty getting in and out of a tub, so the staff not only found us a different room, they moved our luggage. Breakfast seemed a little over priced for what was provided. Location was great and after returning the car, we found we could walked from the center of Bayeux to the hotel in about 20 minutes.

My stay at Château de la Fontaine was absolutely wonderful. The property is stunning—peaceful, elegant, and full of character. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. The rooms were spacious, beautifully furnished, and offered a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort.

Breakfast was cold - cold scrambled eggs and cold poached eggs are not nice!

My wife and I travelled to Bayeux with our 23kg dog and we stayed in the hotel/chateau for two nights while exploring the town and the greater D-Day area. The chateau is very beautiful and hosts a couple buildings, tennis courts, a small river, and plenty of grassy areas with tall trees. The grounds are well maintained and it is very peaceful. Our room was on the top floor, but they did have an elevator, so that made it very convenient. Our room was very nice and had plenty of space, including an extra bed, so even our dog could have slept like royalty. The staff were all very friendly and welcomed us (and our dog) warmly. The breakfast had a good spread, but it does appear to be a recurring problem that the selection is not readily refreshed, so you may wait awhile before new (eggs, potatoes, etc.) are re-filled. The restaurant for dinner is fantastic and very affordable. My wife and I both really enjoyed our meal there and were disappointed we could only eat there once - the restaurant already being fully booked on our first night.

The room was very nice with lovely bedding. A shower would have been easier for us as the tub was hard to get up from and there was no way to hang the hand held shower.
