“Total Quality”

The hotel is of the highest quality with a luxurious interior and has a beautiful loaction overlooking the Beach. The rooms are spacious with all the amentities you would expect from a hotel of this class. The team on site are professional and can not do enough for you. By far the best Casino in Europe is conveniently located right next door. The town of Deauville is relaxed and tranquill. Ideal hotel and location to spoil yourself. My only criticism is that the bar prices are extremely expensive.

“Luxury on the Northern Coast”

Beautiful hotel with all the amenities, the furniture (all matched and hand painted) was chipped and in need of a touch-up - this was the only disappointment from "one of the world's best hotels." The staff was friendly and very professional, the room was clean and there was appropriate housekeeping service (turn-down service, etc.). Did not use the pool, but it looked well maintained and is heated. The business center only has 2 computers, so expect to wait if you want to check email at a peak time (evenings).

“Will return”

Great hotel with great service and ambiance.

“staff were exceptional”

We were given a room with a balconey which would have been delightful to sit with breakfast but it was very cold in mid Oct although glorious blue skies! The staff at check in were very friendly and welcoming even though a very large group were checking in at the same time and they were at that time extremely busy. Expedia obviously have good relations with this hotel as we were treated with kid gloves. So we thank you Expedia! Every thing very expensive as this kind of hotel would dictate .. a small bottle of coke was seven Euros .. a bit of a suprise although really didn't mind we did not come to Deauville to pinch pennies and from the other reviews had expected this .. the staff were just lovely the car was picked up immediately and parked immediately room service was always polite and fast. The front desk everyone very helpful at all times. The only odd thing took place was in the casino where they were VERY reluctent to accept an American Express Euro travelers check! They said it was an 'exception' giving the impression they would NOT do it again! The front desk at the hotel had no such problems. We had a great time and hope to return in the spring.

“Beautiful Hotel”

This is one of my favorite hotels in the world. I've stayed here twice and it is always perfect.

“Nice Hotel, but not the Best Value for the Money”

The Royal Barriere Hotel was very nice. Our room was large and clean. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel had easy access to the beach, boardwalk, and casino. We enjoyed looking at pictures of famous peole that have stayed at the Royal Barriere - mostly for the American Film Festival. If we were traveling to Deauville again, we would probably stay somewhere different. There were many other hotels in the vicinity with easy access to the beach, boardwalk, and casino for better rates. If you don't want to feel like you have to dress up to walk around inside the hotel, this may not be the hotel for you.

“Good but very expensive for meals in-hotel expenditure”

We were very pleased with this hotel and the deal we got up front from Expedia on the room rates. However, any savings we made were quickly dissipated in the exhorbitant prices that the hotel charged for meals, room service and minibar contents. The room would have benefited from a touch of oil on all the hinges to stop the doors and cupboards squeaking every time. We were rather amused that the restaurant manager kept telling us that it was full for dinner, but he could just squeeze us into a table for two and then finding that it was more than half empty throughout the evening. If you want to be pampered in Deauville and can afford the extras, then you won't be disappointed.

“Grand Hotel”

It was a "Grand Hotel" in the old-world style and if you like massive grand hotels you will be satisfied. I prefer smaller more intimate hotels so I will probably look for a 30-60 room style hotel next time. Room was nice and we were right across the road from the beach.

“Friendly and Helpful”

Enjoyed stay.Our room had minor dents in woodwork from prior visitors.Awkward bathroom set up. Service was great.

“great hotel good location”

We stayed here for two nights in october 08. The hotel is perfectl;y located and extremely comfortable. The only comment I would make is that there is no air conditioning in the rooms. I think for a hotel of this standard 4star luxe There should be climate control at all times. Our bedroom was on the south side.It was a very warm sunny weekend and the room was intolerably hot. The staff brought in an electric fan which wasn't relly effective.I would dread to thinkhow uncomfortableit must be in the summer months.
