Guest Reviews
- tushar (2/5): - I can't sleep 2 night because too much noise some times door is nocked. I Don't know what happened.. Its not a good hotel.. Avoid this.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Basique mais très propre et silencieux. - Peu de services ; pas de fontaine à eau, pas de climatisation ou même de ventilateur, pas d’ascenseur pour monter au étage. L’hôtel est propre mais pour le prix, il manque des services.
Si vous êtes véhiculé il peut être difficile de stationner à proximité.
Cependant il faut noter que l’hôtel est propre et confortable et plutôt silencieux.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - バイユーに行く為に泊まりました。駅近で便利です。
- Brendan (6/5): Room for 2 nights - Room clean. Across fro RxR tracks but no noise. Outside a little sketchy to the north is better.
- Jenny (6/5): - The bed was comfy and clean
Bathroom clean
Was extremely hot in the room no air conditioning or fan. Unable to open the window due to the Noise from the bar below till very late and there were early morning revellers at the bus terminal across the road at 4am
Location to the transport system was very good and easy walk into the centre
- Penny (8/5): - The location and hotel itself are great. Shower, beds and staff were good. However, my sister and I were traveling alone and there were a lot of young men hanging around surrounding businesses. They were loud and just hanging out until at least midnight or later. Felt a bit sketchy.
- Karen (4/5): - The room was fine, newly renovated, clean, but the rest if the place needs a good cleaning. The attendant was efficient and welcoming.
The neighborhood residents hung out, talking very loud most of the night. When we finally got to sleep, we were awakened by an ambulance attending to an OD below our window.
We selected this place because it appeared decent in the pictures, it was close to the car rental and we had an early morning train. Given the ease of the public transportation, my suggestion is to look elsewhere.
- Sid (8/5): - The location is in crowded and noisy people hanging around on front area.
- Mohamed-Amine (6/5): Convenable mais Peut mieux faire - Séjour convenable mais malheureusement pas de parking pour le véhicule ; pas de poubelle dans la chambre ; Nuit bruyante avec les personnes qui crient tard la nuit en face de la gare très dommage pour cela .
- Yuanchen (2/5): - Very dirty! Hair on the pillow, I had to cover the pillow with my own coat. Very very noisy around the hotel. ( I can’t believe this is a hotel!, I was expecting that, I was too tired, otherwise I won’t stay)
- Verified traveler (6/5): Hôtel correct mais environnement insécurité - L’hôtel est correct mais les alentours de l’hôtel sont plutôt malfamés .. surtout le soir
On se sent en insécurité.
- DROUHIN (8/5): - Compliqué pour se stationner à proximité
- Franck (10/5): - Bien
- John (8/5): Convenient location to the Caen rental car offices - If it's convenience to the train station and rental car offices you need, this could be the right place for you. It was easy to find and just a few doors down to all of the major car rental offices. It is practical and good for a one night stay. You can add a breakfast for a reasonable fee. The check-in host was fluent in both French and English.
- valerie (6/5): - la carte d'ouverture de la porte de chambre ne fonctionnait plus d'un jour à l'autre et mauvais WIFI
- Frankie (4/5): - No elevator
No air conditioning
No in room coffee or tea
No safety box
Front desk staff don't speak English
- Scott (8/5): - Great place to spend the night after arriving on the train. There were a lot of stairs to my room, and the room was a bit small, but otherwise a great place to stay.
- Gary (10/5): - It was the perfect landing spot to catch our train the next morning to Paris. Clean and comfortable and we found an awesome restaurant a few blocks away.
- JOEL (10/5): TRES BON ENDROIT - Le quartier n'est pas très avenant, ce n'est pas facile de trouver une place de stationnement avant l'arrivée du dernier train (vers 22h) mais en revanche très bon séjour avec un accueil sympathique, chambre fonctionnelle, literie très confortable, isolation phonique sur rue parfaite
- Lesley (10/5): Lovely Comfortable Night - Comfortable hotel. Clean room. Friendly staff.
- Julie (8/5): - Litt små rom, men greit til denne prisen. Brukte dette hotellet til å reise rundt i Normandie. Helt perfekt til det formålet, siden hotellet ligger rett ved togstasjonen. Ikke langt fra midten av sentrum heller, gangavstand til gode restauranter.
- Renato Roberto (6/5): Très déçu par cet hôtel - Un hôtel très très basique... Pas de réception, personne à l'entrée... même au petit déjeuner il n'y avait aucun service!
Par ailleurs, les chambres sont mal isolées et l'on entend les bruits des autres chambres !
Pour le prix que j'ai payé je m'attendait à mieux... Très déçu par ce séjour, j'ai même quitté l'Hôtel une nuit en avance et perdu ce que j'avais déjà réglé ! 😠😡
- marc (6/5): inadmissible . - Absolument inadmissible . Depuis plusieurs semaines , il y a un individu à la réception de l'hôtel , qui ne parle pas le français , qui ne s'occupe absolument pas du service ( que l'on est en attente de recevoir au vu du prix de la chambre ) , pas de petit déjeuné , réception fermée à 20 h . personne ( même après plusieurs coup de sonnette ) le matin ( sauf quand cette personne se déplace en pyjama ) . Pour ma part je ne reviendrais pas dans cet hôtel , pourtant cela fait 3 ans que j'y réside lors de mes fréquents passages à Caen . désolé .
- Billie (10/5): - close to train station
- Verified traveler (10/5): Hotel simple mais agréable - Chambre simple mais agréable et plutôt chaleureuse, propre, en bon état, accueil disponible et souple. Une de mes meilleures expériences pour un hôtel de cette catégorie!
- Martine (8/5): Moyen - Chambre et salle de bains toujours bien. Par contr le personnel a changé. A mon arrivée la personne à l'accueil ne parlait pas un mot de français. Au petit-déjeuner personne et il restait juste un morceau de pain et un croissant ! A 8h15 la même personne que la veille est arrivée en pyjama à l'accueil je lui ai expliqué en anglais qu'il me fallait une facture et normalement je devrais la recevoir par mail. Je pense que la prochaine fois je changerai d'hôtel car vraiment ce n'est plus comme avant.
- Benoit (4/5): - Hôtel propre, chambre rénovée, accueil sympa. Pour ce qui est du quartier fuyez, très mal fréquenté, avec en prime des sdf alcoolisés qui hurlent jusqu’à pas d’heure.
- Billie (10/5): - Great location Easy to get around by bys cab or train
- Martine (8/5): Bien - Hôtel près de la gare de Caen pratique mais environnement bruyant et insécurité. Personnel aimable.
- Bernard (8/5): sympa - Hôtel Très bien rénové et agréable.
On entend legérement les bruits extérieurs dehors.
Wifi lent le soir
Accueil très poli.
Le réceptionniste m' conseillé, fort judicieusement un restaurant
- Nicolas (6/5): - Traveling on business and stayed there as many of the hotels in town were fully booked.
You get what you pay for. It’s a small basic hotel that does the job for a quick overnight stay.
There wasn’t anyone at the counter when I came in so had to ring the bell. Someone eventually came to serve me and he was nice and quickly gave me my key to the room. Can’t say much more about the service as didn’t see anyone after that.
Pros
- room overall was clean
- bed was comfortable .
Cons
- bad area of the city. A lot of people hanging out and doing drugs around the hotel. Would avoid going out at night
- no AC
- no elevator
- foul odor coming from the bathroom
- Penny (6/5): - The hotel itself was clean and "satisfactory", but the area was not one I would want to be out in at night. I know it's near the train station, but it felt especially unsafe. The clerk running the front desk seemed "out of it". We asked for a fan, which he was happy to bring up to the room, but he LET HIMSELF IN to deliver it. As two women staying in the hotel alone, it felt VERY unsafe.
- James (10/5): Hotel formidable en face de la gare - Mon train en provenance de Paris ayant été retardé, je suis arrivé très tard à l'hôtel. Un coup de téléphone à la réception m'a permis de m'enregistrer rapidement. L'hôtel est idéalement situé en face de la gare. Les chambres sont modernes et confortables. Le petit déjeuner est copieux. Le personnel est aimable et serviable.
Je recommande vivement l'hôtel Mary's.
- Claude (10/5): - Very clean hotel with a lot of towels in bathroom.
Very well insulated from street noise.
I recommend it and I will stay again
- Stephen (10/5): - The concierge was particularly helpful when our ferry was late and we arrived after 11pm.
It's a perfect stopover hotel
- Patrick (6/5): - Hôtel difficile à trouver....situé dans un environnement désagréable face à une grande gare...un tabac ouvert tard le soir et de nombreux restos kebab etc...
Une quantité impressionnante de migrants...de dealers qui vous aborde près de l hotel...
Aucune place de stationnement a proximité.
Cerise sur le gâteau..des travaux dans l hôtel bruyants en après-midi.
Par contre tres propre...chambre petite mais confortable....et in petit déjeuner
- Dennis (10/5): - Clean and simple hotel. Good breakfast. Location is great
- Martine (10/5): Très bien - Toujours très bien j'ai l'habitude de me rendre dans cet hôtel et tout est parfait.
- marc (8/5): - Sejour d,une nuit pour le travail . Bien reçu, superbe chambre.
- Dominique (8/5): Bon séjour - Séjour " d'utilité " l'hôtel est très bien tenu, particulièrement propre dans un quartier qui l'est nettement moins le soir. Le patron est attentif et nous a aidé à monter nos valises assez lourdes. Les chambres sont biens insonorisées, très propres. Le coin salle d'eau est tres récent et bien entretenu
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Ligger perfekt utanför järnvägsstationen
- Paul (10/5): - The fellow at the desk was so helpful. The place was a good deal for the price. It was very clean. We were close to the bus station. Not much for close restaurants. The sushi place next door was good though.
- Bruno (10/5): Très bien - Un bon petit Hôtel, en face de la gare. Le personnel est très accueillant et serviable. Nous avons passés de bonnes nuits au calme, dans une chambre très propre. A noter, Petit déjeuner simple mais avec des vrais croissants (pas surgelés).
- isabelle (8/5): - L'accueil était très bien et rapide, le confort de la chambre suffisant pour une nuit, j'ai juste trouvé le petit déjeuner un peu cher (10€) par rapport au choix proposé qui est assez limité. Le croissant était top, dommage que l'on n'ait le droit de n'en prendre qu'un!
- david (10/5): Super hôtel - Excellent hôtel
Accueil et gentillesse de l’hôte
Très propre et très calme
Je recommande vraiment
- Martine (10/5): Très bien - Très bien comme d'habitude.
- Virginia (10/5): - Super clean and very helpful staff. All we needed for a short stay and very handy for public transport links. The area is a bit grubby like all stations but once inside you are safe and it’s very quiet. Extra points for the service which was over and above.
- P (10/5): Clean and comfortable hotel in Caen! - Stayed two nights at Hotel Mary’s. The staff were very helpful and willing to call taxis etc.
Although I travelled alone I booked a double room. It was quite small for two people, but fine for me. The room had good facilities with everything you could need. The bed was very comfortable and I slept very well on both nights.
Everything was extremely clean, especially the bathroom! Fantastic shower, powerful and hot!
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a reasonably priced hotel in Caen!
- Sam (10/5): - Mary's hotel is well located across the road from the train station and tram stop. The room was clean and well presented and the bed was comfortable. Mary the host, was very welcoming. We would stay here again.
- GREGORY (10/5): Mary is a Saint - Nice homey hotel.
A few hundred meters directly sycamore across from the Caen train station crosswalk.
- Food, shopping, walking near by
- Quiet and peaceful
- Fluent English and French spoken
This is an old-school, traditional French hotel, clean, friendly, with no elevator, AC, or bell hop.
Stayed during a record breaking heat wave and it was comfortable. Ask Mary for the local map and have her mark the train tracks and hotel.
- Cynthia (10/5): - Great breakfast. Friendly host!! Very clean.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Exceptionnel - Excellent accueil, personnel à l’écoute serviable magnifique ,chambre très correcte petit dejeuner sympathique.je reviendrai
- pamela (10/5): Helpful and accommodating staff - The woman who was running the hotel when we arrived was very nice, helpful and had a great sense of humor. She served a very nice continental breakfast which was so helpful as we were taking an early morning train.
- Caroline (10/5): - Mary the owner is a very dedicated , friendly host . Very clean , nice hotel .
- John (10/5): - Quaint, inexpensive hotel with superior service from the owner. I would definstely stsy again.
- Jacques (8/5): - séjour confortable et accueil avec petit accent québecquois très sympathique.
- colin (10/5): - mary was so helpful --lots of good suggestions, friendly and welcoming. very clean room in a convenient area--near trains, buses, light rail transit, but room was still quiet. hotel kept in excellent condition; good breakfast too!
- Kerry (10/5): - As an American tourist I felt safe. This is right across from the train station and several places to eat. It is in a busy enough area—yet quiet.
The owner, Mary, was the highlight as she was friendly, helpful, and social.
- jacqueline (10/5): A connaitre - Excellent accueil, chambre tres correcte petit dejeuner sympathique.je reviendrai
- Jiakai (10/5): Clean and helpful staff! - Our train was delayed but the receptionist (I assume Mary) was patiently waiting for us late time and helped us with our luggage. Clean room and everything was great at Hotel Mary Caen.
- Martin (10/5): - Hotel Mary is modern and classy. It is centrally located, literally right across from the main train station. Breakfast was excellent.
But, the best part of Hotel Mary is Mary herself. Friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Her pride is evident throughout the facility.
- Nick (10/5): - I arrived very late due to a delayed ferry crossing but that was no problem for the very friendly receptionist. She was very friendly and understanding.
- Gabriel (10/5): Safe and clean haven - Mary was so generous and welcoming. It’s obvious that this is her passion.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very comfortable and clean, perfectly situated for the station and trams, and an easy walk into the town centre. The decorators were working in the hallways as we left, and when I reported a non-functioning shaver socket Mary made a note straightaway to get it fixed. Mary was extremely helpful with recommending places to eat and visit. (No evening meals available in the dining room, but breakfast was good.)
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The most unique quality of this hotel has to be the service and sincere effort provided by the owner. She is without question the most efficient, knowledgeable and helpful hotel receptionist we have met in our many travels.
There is nothing of importance to be critical of. The only thing we can think of would be a small "stick-on" or suction shelf yo hold toiletries while showering.
- Rus (10/5): - After travelling for 7 weeks we stayed here the night before going to Paris, as it was across the road from the train station. The Owner Mary was an absolute delight and really made our stay! So friendly and helpful and the breakfast for €8 was perfect and great value. Very comfortable bed and the best pillows. One of our best finds with convenience and comfort. Easy 15 tram trip into the old town and to Abbaye aux Hommes. 25 min. walk back to the hotel. Lots of places to eat nearby.
- Eja (10/5): - Well designed property very handy to public transit. Owner operator was very welcoming and helpful in organizing our must see list.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The owner, Mary is a delight. Very helpful and attentive, I would definitely stay here again. Rooms are a bit small though, but the price was right.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Mary the hotel owner was exceptional and very helpful during our stay in Caen. Her breakfasts were Excellent with fresh pastries and delicious coffee along with attentive service. She was very kind ; loaned us an umbrella and phone charger during our stay. She works hard to provide guests a quality stay with her fine personal touch.
Sincerely Donna
- Dennis (10/5): - Mary was extremely gracious, and went out her way to be helpful to us. Bathroom was exceptionally nice. We heartily recommend this hotel. Dennis and Sue.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very helpful staff - she went to great lengths to recommend various restaurants to us and point out their locations/names on a map. She also took our bag up to our room. We were able to store our bags before check in and after check out with no concern.
Everything was clean, comfortable and modern. close to the train station, tram available right outside and walkable to the center of Caen.
- Andrew (8/5): Lovely hotel - Great location and staff were very helpful and friendly. Room was really nice and shower amazing. Parking was the only problem really
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Exceedingly friendly and helpful check in. Great recommendations on food. Right across from the train station. And a pleasant walk to the sites. Room is simple, but spotless. Bed was very comfortable. Plenty of hot water. At the price, well worth it.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was very clean and looked newly renovated. The manager was amazing and so helpful to us. She provided us feedback on places to go see in the area. It was close to the bus and train station so was somewhat loader. Also, it is right next to a bar that one evening was very loud and there was a ruckus that police came to attend to. We wish the location was better but it worked for the 2 days that we were there.
- Amber (10/5): Convenient and Comfortable - The room is very comfortable and the breakfast is great! It was a convenient location for us to arrive by train and depart by the airport bus to Charles de Gaulle.
- Annie/Steve (8/5): - We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Mary’s mainly because we just loved the owner. She could not have been nicer, very accommodating, very personable and very helpful as well as bilingual which helped us considerably. The property was perfectly situated to catch an early train back to Paris. We would definitely stay again. Thanks Again Mary !!!
- John (10/5): Home away from home. - We were immediately treated like valued guests.The owner was very helpful in all ways. She checked our bus times, recommended restaurants, gave directions, and generally made us welcome.We were so pleased we arranged to stay again on our way back through Caen. Thank you.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - This was perfect for us. It was a super clean room at a fair price with a bilingual Canadian proprietor who went out of her way to be helpful. Additionally the car rental agency was about 30 meters away and the train station was about 50 meters. Tip: take the breakfast, good food and lots of coffee. Negatives: the room is small and there is construction in the area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Boutigue hotel in an excellent location close to the major transportation hubs.
- Jacob (10/5): - The hotel reception staff was very kind and helpful, I highly recommend this hotel in Caen
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff speaks English very well . The owner is Canadian. They are very kind and helpful
- David (10/5): Nice stay near the train/bus station - Very nice hotel in close proximity to the train/bus station. Excellent service in orienting me to the area and providing maps, discount coupons, and restaurant guidance. The breakfast while simple is very good and includes excellent American coffee. If you like sushi, suggest dining at the next door restaurant. Overall an excellent value.
- Upsorn (8/5): Nice hotel in front of the train station - The hotel is just opposite the train and bus station. The room is clean and the hotel staff is very helpful. Breakfast is good too.
