Normandy Barrière  

шикарный, старинный отель. стандартный номер совсем не маленький, как я прочмтал во многих отзывах. площадь 20 кв.м - для франции это очень хорошо. услугами парковки(30 евро в день) пользоваться не обязательно, так как на соседних улицах парковка вообще бесплатна. мы ставили машину самое дальнее 100 метров от отеля(а мы там остановливались на 9 ночей и каждый день ездили по побережью). бассейн маленький, в основном для детей. на счет дорогих завтраков(30 евро в день): в довилле есть много мест, где можно позавтракать не дорого.

Week end en amoureux. C'était super. Le personnel très compétent. Beaucoup de chaleur dans cet hotel. Très cosy. Chambre comme chez soi. Beaucoup d'intimité. Plateau de fruits de mer un régal. Le personnel à nos petits soins. Se rappelle de notre nom immédiatement. BRAVO.

It is a beautiful hotel, light green half-timbering makes it a wonderful example of Anglo-Norman architecture. Rooms are elegant, spacious enough, with abundance of closet space and comfortable beds. Location is superb. Some rooms have balconies facing the inside garden or water. Services of the business center are free. The beach is right near. There is paid parking in the hotel and if you prefer a free one, you may find it on the near by street - 3 min walk.

BREAKFAST:In my view, breakfast at the hotel was not good, because of the scares variety. I suggest ordering croissants and coffee in the lobby bar or taking a 3 mim walk to the near by Celebrity cafe or any other place, instead. The breakfast room and the outside seating provide for great ambiance, though. So do this at least once. Spa: Unfortunately, spa menu is in french only, and appointments could be scheduled via concierge only. Even though our concierge was very friendly, he had a difficult time translating treatment details, so we ended up going to a different place. Overall, we had a nice stay, but somehow you do not feel cared for enough for the price. So, this is a good place to stay for its historical value and beauty.

Position

No air conditioning Small room Very overpriced for the overall hotel and room standard

The location is wonderful and even better the hotel building. Truly a five star hotel.

The hotel design

The Normandy Barrièrre is a very exquisite and luxury hotel. As a guest you feel totally pampered. Our room was spacious, clean and beautiful. Nice view on Le Printemps and other shops. We were travelling with our baby of 3 months and the hotel staff made sure our room was well equipped: babybed, -bath and changing matras. We really liked the indoor pool, of which the glass roof could be opened on warm days. But all this luxury this doesn't come cheap...

Only "downside": the breakfast was very expensive (€ 30,-- pp). Same goes for the roomservice (€ 15,-- for coffee in your room). We missed a waterboiler and coffeemachine in our room and considering the above mentioned prices: ordering it was not really an option. But outside the hotel are many nice little restaurants and brasseries which offer very nice breakfast menus.

The breakfast was not good enough to warrant the high cost.

Liked the room and the staff. Liked the breakfast buffet. Liked proximity to ocean.

Didn't like being given an awful table next to the kitchen at dinner and being told the other tables were reserved when clearly they were not. We left as the restaurant was ending service- no late appearing reserved diners in evidence.We were a well dressed, French-speaking American couple. I can only assume it was because the hostess heard my accent. In a ace this touristy and expensive, that kind of attitude should no longer be an issue.

No air conditioning, the bed still had a winter duvet and the central heating was on 5.

Very beautiful hotel with fine service. A convenient arrangement, nearby a beach. Room is not so big, but very comfortable. Staff is very friendly. We have perfectly spent time.

The Hotel is very expensive and so ,all service ,Breakfast is much to expensive and as for cost vs facility , its does not value.

building outsides are fantastic

needs refurbishment. Old fashened
