Reviews for Hotel Du Chateau

Review 1:Hotel owner was very friendly. Wonderful to be able to park in the hotel lot. Accommodation was basic but just fine for one night and we were a short walk from Versailles. Breakfast is super expensive so just get something from the neighborhood unless you really don't want to venture out.

Review 2:We knew where the hotel was, but how to get there with a complex roadpartly cut off and partly too complex to find need some specificdirections for those coming from abroad, especially in the dark of thenight. It took several tries to get into the property.

Review 3:Very good Continental breakfasts and very helpful staff. Made things aseasy as possible, especially as our French isn't really fluent.

Review 4:There was no wheelchair access into the hotel - there were quite steep steps. The toilet was cracked.

Review 5:The location was nice and central but quite hard to find by car.

Review 6:No wifi on the floor we stayed (4th floor). Had to go to the lounge (or breakfast room) on the ground floor to check my email, and the lounge was locked at night - no access. The hotel is old (so is the furniture in the room) and needs much renovation and updating. The bathroom is small and the door couldn't close.

Review 7:Excellent location

Review 8:Breakfast, a little disappointing. The addition of ham and cheese would have been appreciated for those that prefer savory..

Review 9:Location: Great bang in the city centre. Staff: Always polite, and helpful. Room clean and bed very comfortable (firm)

Review 10:Thought the breakfast was poor considering they charged 8 euros. It was basically some bread and jam with a yogurt and coffee.

Review 11:Location was good with off road parking for my motorbike. The room etc was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful at all times.

Review 12:Being on the fifth floor, with a very small lift that only went to the fourth floor. Saying that would go back .

Review 13:Lady at reception very nice and very welcoming with a nice smile, Young Man was very helpful too .

Review 14:WiFi was poor. No toilet paper on arrival. Door was left unlocked on our second day by the cleaner. We hadn't checked out yet but went for breakfast and on return to room found towels had already been taken away.

Review 15:The bed was comfortable. Shower was very good. Staff very friendly. Location was perfect

Review 16:Very "tired" inside, not clean, furniture resembles charity shop rejects

Review 17:Friendly staff, nice central location, close to everything you could want

Review 18:Looked like the sort of room that rented out by the hour. Small double sprung bed on metal legs. Stains on the carpet and very shabby furniture.

Review 19:Staff were friendly and let us park the car round the back

Review 20:We had no Wi Fi in our room, only in the first floor - our room was in the fifth. The staff could not fix it during our two days stay.

Review 21:Great location

Review 22:We had booked a twin and a triple room as we were a group of five men. On arrival, we were advised that they only had a triple reserved despite my confirmation to the contrary. There were no twins available so we were given two doubles, however, this meant that we had to pay for an additional room to what we expected.

Review 23:Friendly staff, great location and cheap

Review 24:very outdated, dirty stained initially cheap old carpet, noisy street, creepy stained peeling furniture, inadequately high price for the value, I wonder who ever made 7.8 rate I was fooled with. My worst and overpriced stay in years. I paid 110+tx for 2 adults 2 kids, later found room price tag on the room door inside (which is usually higher than at this site) was 90 for 4 adults! Very unpleased and dissatisfied. Stay away.

Review 25:location, however noisy, reception staff tries to be but stiff.

Review 26:Our room stunk of stale cigarette smoke. It was vile. The bed was really uncomfortable - roll together mattress. No kettle but didn't make a fuss as I had brought my own.

Review 27:Location perfetc, a stone's throw from the harbour. Staff very friendly.

Review 28:These are not dislikes but would have improved things overall. Rooms need updating a little and car parking a little awkward.

Review 29:Helpful,friendly staff. Room clean and cleaned daily. Good location and great wi fi

Review 30:Absolutely nothing to complain about.

Review 31:LARGE room, could spread out, make ourselves comfortable. Great Wi-Fi. Great location. Breakfast hard to beat. Great staff! Hey, we loved this place from the moment of arrival.

Review 32:Staff does not speak English, the breakfast is very limited (only sweet). One day we had to wait for 50min to have breakfast because number of places for breakfast is very limited so only few people can eat at the same time. Also the price for the breakfast is too high because if you walk just few meters you can eat great breakfast in the local bakeries for that price. The floor in the rooms is noisy and the facilities are very basic. Anyway I think it is a decent hotel for the price we paid.

Review 33:Location of the hotel is great! The parking was also ok, although they have very limited number of parking places we managed to get the parking spot. Staff is friendly but they do not speak English.

Review 34:Unfortunately people smoking out of their windows meant the smoke wafted into our room which was the only bad point to mention.

Review 35:The hotel was in a perfect location, near the chateau and close to lots of restaurants. We managed to be given a parking space behind the hotel and the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful.

Review 36:Right in the centre, many restaurants and bars close by, lovely warm welcome by the Owners, excellent WIFI, the room was huge although a little dated, represented great value. Easy parking in the street opposite....

Review 37:Only thing was that the shower only had the small light above the mirror and that's it, so a bit dark.

Review 38:Comfy beds, staff was very helpful, we asked for advil since we had a huge headache and got it. Also gave us 3 big mineral water for the road after breakfast!

Review 39:really in the city centre. nice guy who gave us plenty of information and advice and also some water in some bottle for the day. the room was big and clean =) we were all really happy !

Review 40:sound insulation is poor in the rooms, so I guess it depends on your neighbors

Review 41:for 37e I paid this is a gem. The location is ideal, parking is included so no headache there, monuments & restaurants at lazy-walking distance. There was no real problem with the room. Ok it was a bit old, but for the price this is expected. Instead temperature was nicely controlled, hot water in the shower, no noise, in general everything you need is there. The fellow at the entrance was very helpful and cheerful.

Review 42:Room in attic out of range of lift and poor heating.

Review 43:Hotel very central - within walking of historical sites and good shops and resturants. Very friendly helpful staff and parking facilities.

Review 44:Staff wonderful and very helpful. Very convenient as in town centre and private parking at rear of hotel. What more could you wish for with many restaurants within close walking distance. No need to use the car during our stay.

Review 45:The bathroom door didn't close properly, and neither did the window in the bathroom.

Review 46:The room was big and the wifi was great. The owner did not speak much english, but got along fabulously with my girlfriend who speaks french.

Review 47:Everything is pretty basic and dated but at the price, this is OK.

Review 48:Location (very central); large room and bathroom; easy parking nearby despite hotel being in pedestrian zone

Review 49:We arrived a day too early ! In August ! The manager was wonderful and arranged a room for four of us from the only ,small , spare room . Great service .We will return ( On the correct date this time !)

Review 50:Noisy - both location (drunks in street outside in the early hours of the morning) and guest entry (including door buzzer) was very noisy and again continued into the early hours of the morning. Could not shut bathroom door as it jammed and you could not get out, shower and main room light did not work. Lots of evidence of French laissez faire!

Review 51:Stand out point was location. Staff were friendly (though not English speaking) and breakfast was very basic but inexpensive.

Review 52:Our room smelt of smoke from a previous customer. The decor was tired.

Review 53:The reception staff were anxious to help in any way they could. The basic facilities were all there.

Review 54:If staying a few days there is no drawer space for clothes although there is a space for hanging clothes so it is quite difficult when looking for items in the luggage case.

Review 55:The central location of the hotel in Caen. The friendliness of the staff and owners. The owner invited me to garage my car every night which was very welcome.

Review 121:The hotel is a little bit old and this was obvious in the room(althought it was clean and the beds were fine). The bathroom doorcouldn't be closed, unless someone from outside pushed it toclose. It was more like a two-leaf wardrobe's door than abathroom's door. Breakfast isnot included in the prce.
