A really super hotel for a stay in central Caen. Clean and comfortable with very friendly staff. Everything is in easy reach and a wealth of places to eat and drink are very close by.
The Hôtel La Fontaine is highly recommended. It is so tastefully decorated and very clean and quite. The customer service provided is above and beyond what we have typically experienced….perfect!
Mathieu and family made us feel very welcome in this lovely little hotel. The rooms are small and simple, but tastefully designed and very comfortable. It's a small hotel, so don't expect a huge buffet breakfast - just good bread, cheese, homemade yogurt and the local speciality teurgoule. The location is perfect, within walking distance of the castle and abbeys, and there are lots of buses and trams (get the Twisto app}.
I had a lovely stay in the Hotel Fontaine for the DDay commemorations. Secure underground car park very close by, a stroll to several good restaurants and the beautiful chateau.
Conveniently located in the shopping area with lots of restaurants nearby. Roomy, comfort and friendly staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very central location. They have 3 floors but no elevator, so that’s something to keep in mind. The stay was comfortable for a short two days. No complains.
This hotel is nice. Nice location which just take 5mins walk to the car park. Located in the city centre where you can walk everywhere within 15- 20mins.
The most important thing is the staff/owner ‘s family are superb nice.
Highly recommended ❤️
This is a lovely Hotel, right in the heart of Caen very charming and lovely welcoming staff

Disliked: Amenities
The location was very good , shops and restaurants nearby . Parking was 22 euro a day about a block away .
There is No Air conditioning in this Hotel ! Making it very uncomfortable in the humidity and heat . Also many steps and no elevator to get to the rooms .
Family run , very small rooms staff are eager to please , clean enough , free breakfast average .
Room was nicely decorated and very clean. But it was very small. Also no lift a four storey building so if you on top floor like us a lot of stairs to climb. Breakfast was very poor and could be improved. No eggs or yoghurt. No fresh milk only long life milk. Car parking at €22 per day is a bit stiff. Admittedly hotel doesn't own car park. But i think hotel should try and make alternative arrangements for clients. The two brothers who run it are very nice and helpful.
A couple of days exploring the area, Caen made a good base. This is a comfortable b&b (breakfast is extra) parking in place de la république is easy and 3 mins walk. No lift which made it a bit of a hassle with our luggage and no one there to check us in but info was sent via email.
