La Barre-en-Ouche Castle Hotels

"Very nice and convenient stopover hotel. It may feel slightly tired at first glance, but rooms are practical and clean. Bathroom is small but well designed for the space. Water pressure in the shower is adequate, Front-desk service is excellent and swift; we arrived late in the evening with several suitcases, and we were immediately offered a ground floor room instead of our originally assigned room on a higher floor to accommodate us (without us even asking) which was extremely thoughtful. There is a wide parking area at the front of the hotel (shared with a restaurant next door) and the hotel is close to Bernay town centre which has plenty of food outlets and retail shops. We have rarely seen this level of service for the price of the room and can only encourage other travellers to use it."

"Beautiful place with large rooms and private parking. The restaurant was closed but the owner recommended Le Carpe Diem nearby which was excellent."

"Easy walk from the train station. Elevator! Comfortable room and bed. The staff were super-friendly and accommodating. One of the receptionists changed my life by telling me how to get an inexpensive yeSim card so I’d have cellular service everywhere. (US travelers: Verizon service stinks in France.) Bonus: Discounts at some of the excellent nearby restaurants. On Saturdays the center of town, including the hotel, is inaccessible by car due to a lively street market."

"We had a lovely time here. The gîte is set in a green valley on a quiet country road, but is only a 5 minute drive from Bernay (and the Intermarché).Sylvie and Hubert were very friendly and helpful - recommending a local restaurant for a celebration and even booking it for us!The swimming pool arrangement suited us fine and we could choose what time to use it each day.We had a relaxing 10 days here and would recommend!"

"The villa is in a small community of homes with enough privacy to think you were completely alone. The pool and gardens are beautiful and our children thoroughly enjoyed this aspect, both very well kept.Inside the villa you have two rooms upstairs with a bathroom with bath and a library on the landing overlooking downstairs, all very clean. Downstairs you have another 2 bedrooms (one with a TV and sofa bed) and a further bathroom with shower. Again all very clean and tidy. The living room space and dining area are much bigger than the photos so this was a nice surprise with a large fire in the centre (we didn't use this as we visited at the end of July) the villa also had aircon in the living area. The kitchen came fully equipt with lots of utensils and pots and there is a large fridge, three drawer freezer, dishwasher and microwave to use. The kitchen is quite small so preparing dinner was a little challenging when cooking for seven of us. The only negative is that the kitchen cupboards and the wardrobes in the rooms had a fair bit of clutter so I had to move some things in the kitchen and couldn't really hang anything in the wardrobes, this is such a minor thing though.The host Frédéric was amazing from start to finish, answered emails quickly, answered lots of my questions and gave us lots of details for check in. You won't be disappointed if you stay here."

"Just perfect "

"This has become a regular stop for us on the way to Le Mans from Calais. It's perfect for our needs and ideally situated once you've got past Rouen. Easy Parking, good Pizza and Beer in the evening when we turn up, and a reasonable breakfast selection in the morning. Rooms are large, clean and comfortable. Couldn't ask for more."
