Jon
Really nice, family run hotel a few minutes from the village centre. The room was very clean and the food (breakfast) was very good. Very recommended for a family especially if you want a base to visit the D-Day beaches etc.
Sandra
Well placed for visiting the Normandy beaches area. Comfortable rooms. Clean. Good breakfast and parking. Helpful staff.
Gillian
Excellent little hotel. Recently refurbished. Good selection at breakfast and Damien was really helpful showing us to our rooms and sorting out the parking for us. The rooms were spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated and furnished. Would happily stay there again. Great location
Jason
Very cute property & room. Felt like home. I asked lot of questions because we are traveling with two babies and the hotel was more than helpful. The fridge wasn’t working in our room & the hotel changed it to another refrigerator promptly. Very friendly staffs.
George
Breakfast a bit lacking - would have liked a bowl of mixed fruit
linda
Lovely spacious room with shower room, all very clean and helpfully there was a fridge in the room. Very helpful staff on site, rooms face on to the car park motel style but it's quiet and pleasant.

Parking was great, right next to the hotel, We book a Triple room and this had loads of space. The breakfast was continental, plentiful and all fresh, very happy. We were over to explore the D Day beaches and this hotel was perfectly located for this and especially Gold beach.
David
Stay at Arromanches.
Great hotel ideally placed for a stay in Arromanches. Plenty of space in the room and 2-minute walk to the beach.
Amanda
Extremely comfortable, great location
Very comfortable, welcoming, pleasant hotel in a great location.
We had a warm, friendly welcome at L’Ideal Mountbatten.
The hotel is small and unassuming but the rooms are lovely and comfortable.
It’s a great base for Arromanches-les-Bains and Normandy in general, including the D-Day beaches.
We would like to have stayed longer - highly recommend. Good value too!

Charming!
What a charming little hotel! The bed was very comfortable and the service was excellent! A nice buffet breakfast. Very clean. Good water pressure for the shower.
Kevin
Check in was smooth, efficient, friendly reception. Room was comfortable and spacious, minor criticism, bathroom did have several noticeable stains around grouting areas. Only 5 min walk to town/beach area, parking a freebie as a VIP member
Samantha
This is a fantastic little hotel and spot less. It great for getting out and about and in walking distance of lovely bars and restaurants. We shell be returning to this wonderful hotel.
James
Charming little place
Our family of four had a wonderful stay in Arromanches. Best breakfast on our whole tour through Europe. This charming town is probably a 10 minute drive from Bayeux.
Karen
Great location, comfortable and clean room, friendly staff.
Lela
We really enjoyed our stay here at this hotel. Although it’s not accessible by public transport, we got information on a taxi driver from the front desk employee and used him for our trip (we did not have a car rented). It’s really walkable to the beach and street with food/shopping. Employees were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and spacious, plus the view from the window at sunset was just beautiful. Would recommend this hotel!

Cute boutique hotel with great decor!! Loved room 12.
Carole
Excellent stay. Excellent location to visit all of the D Day beaches and areas. Great breakfast and the whole place is extremely clean. We even extended our stay. Shower is quite small but that is typical of Europe. Place looks like it has been renovated very recently. Parking right outside the door and only 5 minutes walk to all the restaurants and war museum.

Lovely family run hotel. We had a family room which was amazing with our own little private out door seating area. Very clean and tidy too. Breakfast could do with more choices as we found it very limited.
Verified traveler
Perfect for our short stop over

Steve

Lynda
Central location with parking on site
Very comfortable spacious room, fan which was very welcome due to the hot weather. Buffet breakfast was good and comfortable bed.
Benoit
Perfect stay !!
Stephanie
Very convenient and comfortable little hotel where you can park the car (if you reserve a spot) and go explore the D Day museum and harbor. The staff was super welcoming! Breakfast onsite is convenient. The rooms had different configurations for our group, 3 single beds for me and the kids, and a double bed for my parents. Perfect!
Scot
Nice
Nice hotel located just two blocks from ocean at Gold Beach, Normandy. Perfect for exploring WWII sites and Cider Route.
Andrew
We had a two night stop over on our way to Bordeaux immediately before the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings so the on site parking was very useful. The hotel was ideally located in a quieter area which was an easy and very short walk to the town centre and beaches. The rooms were very comfortable and well presented and the breakfast area similarly well set out and and convenient. Would have preferred a more powerful shower in the room but overall a very enjoyable stay.
Verna
Beautiful location. Very nice manager. Wonderful updated, large room. Breakfast has many choices and delicious French custom in a nice white linen dining room. Close to visit all of the D Day beaches. Make sure to reserve a parking space. You will need it.
NIGEL
Very good LROUND THANKYOU
DEBORAH

What a lovely spot to stay! We spent 3 nights in a 2 bedroom unit (2 adult, 2 teens) with a bonus outdoor space. Breakfast was delicious. Very quick walk to the shops and the water front. Don’t forget to book a parking space.
Shaun
It was an ideal place for visiting the Normandy sites. Right in town, has parking, good breakfast. Comfortable beds even if it’s not fancy.

neil
A superb hotel.
An excellent location being only a couple of minutes walk to the sea front.
The couple who run the hotel are ultra helpful and available 24/7.
We stayed there for a week as Arowmanches was a perfect location from where to tour the D-Day Beaches etc.
Have already recommended to some friends who are thinking of travelling to the D-Day Beaches next year.

Goede ontvangst. Kamer was netjes. Alles volgens de regels van corona. Ontbijt was zeer verzorgd. Dus aangenaam verblijf.
Rafael
Friendly host but both rooms were poor
Hotel is near the beach. Nice breakfast and very friendly host. Rooms are not airconditioned and not ventilated so humidity to high.
Shower to small to turn around. Equipment in bathroom not mounted well and outdated . Beds to small and not comfortable and matras and deck felt wet.

This is a little gem of a hotel located minutes walk away from the beach and center of town. The breakfast which was included in my price was surprisingly good. If it wasn’t included in the price, I wouldn’t have minded paying the 12.50 Euros they were charging. There is laundry service not self service though. We paid 10 Euros to have them do a load of our dirty laundry. The room definitely needs upgrading and if they did upgrade, they would definitely be justified charging so much more because of the location. I would definitely stay here again if I were to return.
Trevor
Great stay.
Great location for what l was there for. Lovely stylish room with comfortable bed and off road parking, could not fault it nor the staff.
PWB
Charge 3EUR day for parking, and 11.50 for breakfast.
Traveler
Perfect location for exploring the d day sites. Arromanches is a lovely little sea side town. The staff was very pleasant but their English was very limited. We had trouble figuring out the shower controls, very European I guess. Breakfast was delicious and served in a bright, cheery room.
Nick
Our room was exceptionally large and the breakfast was very reasonably priced. Breakfast provided a wide variety of options. The owners were very helpful.
MARY

Hotel L'Ideal Arromanches
Lovely spacious room, only down side was that if could quite noisy during the day until early evening. The luxury double room was above the hotels kitchen and laundry. Also looked out onto busy road.

Great location!
This was an excellent little hotel in a cute little village close to all the Normandy sites! It was very clean and modern. Breakfast was very good as well. Highly recommend this place!

Visit
We arrived after dark and had a hard time finding the hotel. The street signs refer to Hotel Mountbatten but on the front window of the hotel it says Ideal in oddly placed letters which is very misleading. The owner wasn't there when we arrived but left the keys on the door and I was able o talk to her about this the next morning but she was clearly unsympathetic which I think is unfortunate because our room itself was excellent - the best room in any of the places we stayed in during our visit to France.

Stopover in Arromanches
Stayed here with a group of 5 as a stopover for one night on way back from a trip further south.

Nice hotel, 2 min walk to beach and D Day museum
Very clean, great location for D Day history and 10 min car journey to see the Bayeux tapestry. Stroll to the beach and a choice of restaurants.
There’s a hotel car park, but it does have a height restriction. We have an x5 with bikes on the roof and couldn’t get under. But there’s a free car park literally opposite. In my opinion I would say this is more of a motel rather than a hotel... and reception is not open 24 hours. We booked a 2 bed suite. It’s been great. Super clean, lovely bathroom and bedrooms etc. I would definitely recommend this place and would definitely come back if we were passing through again.

Lovely break
Fantastic stay in Arromaches with handily positioned and very clean hotel as base. Easily able to access all Normandy landing sites from this central spot.
Friendly hosts and overall highly recommended.

Very nice Hotel, in the center of the village. Several good restaurants, a few hundreds yards from the beach.
Rooms are nice, regular european size so not huge ( same for the shower). Main piece of equipment lacking for US customers: A/C so you must keep the window open eventually.
Very quite: no door or neighbor noises in the middle of the night.

High Hidden Fees & Missing Amenities
I will first start out by saying this hotel is in an amazing location, which is why there are a lot of hidden fees. I say hidden because the breakdown of the total cost was very odd. My nightly rate was $143.47, which did not include $38.93 in other service fees. My total was $182.40 excluding the 3.30 Euros in city tax that is normal. My rate included breakfast yet when I checked in, the front desk clerk said my rate didn't include it even after she \"looked up\" my reservation. The # 1 reason we selected the hotel was, because under main amenities they had \"Self-Service Laundry\" listed. My wife was happy, because we could wash our 14-month old's clothes midway through our road trip. I looked all over the property and there was not a laundry. The next morning the owner said the machines were in the garage. He directed me to bring my clothes down and he would do my 2 loads. Upon checkout, I saw a charge of 24 Euros in laundry fees. I told the lady at the desk I refused to pay that as Hotels.com listed \"Self-Service Laundry as a main amenity. She said that was a mistake and it was not her fault how it was listed. After having me wait for almost an hour while on the phone she took the charges off. That same morning, I showed the owner that my reservation included breakfast and again there was conversation on the phone. This hotel is great for its location and they helped us with freezing & heating my son’s food, but when it came to money their attitude completely changed.

Adorable hotel in quiet city. Perfect.

Not up to standard
I was very surprised to find 2 sets of ear plugs in the room, on my first night I found out why they were there. This is the noisiest room I have ever stayed in, every noise from other rooms could be heard and loudly!
When the room was cleaned the next morning the cake of soap was still on the floor of the shower when I returned.
WiFi was very fragile.

Good location
Great hotel for families but they do not supply bath towels so be prepared.

Last minute
Really is a motel, two stories with outside entrance. Difficult to carry 2 large suitcases up the stairs. Mostly unilingual staff but expected. Room was large, clean but motel like. Bit noisy to exterior cars, they provided ear plugs. Breakfast ok, European like. This was a last minute one night stay with not a lot of choice in a small village so my complaints are few. It was a large room that was very clean and cared by a family like owners.

Good facilities let down by poor standards
Good family facilities and room but very poor service. Room not cleaned. Breakfast poor with overripe fruit reappearing the next day. Could be so much better.

Parfait!
Exceptionally clean, very comfortable and nice modern interiors. The perfect place to stay to explore the beaches of the Normandy landings (we went for D-Day and it was ace!) as its in a central position. Easy walking distance (3-5mins) to shops, bars, restaurants and the beach. Fab continental breakfast, accommodating hosts, on-site car parking. Its hard to find a single fault...
Highly recommended.
Highly recommended.

Perfect location for exploring Arromanches-les-Bai
Front desk staff are very friendly and helpful even with our language barrier. I would stay here again.

Great hotel if you are driving.
Free parking. Rooms large and clean. Good idea to bring your own shampoo, conditioner, and bar soap if you don't care for liquid soap dispensers. Also, no Kleenex tissues provided. Man on duty every morning was always happy and smiling. No one speaks English but we managed.
After morning check out, office closes and does not reopen till 4 pm. We booked two rooms. Breakfast was included in price of first room. To get breakfast for second room was substantially more Euros. Never figured that one out. Hotel doesn't have a view but beds were very comfortable and rooms quiet. Just a short walk to cafes, restaurants, and Museum . Grocery store across street opens at 9:30 am.

NICE HOTEL WELL PLACED FOR VISITING THE D-DAY BEAC
Nice hotel/motel very well placed for touring the D-Day Beaches. It's only a very short walk to the town centre shops and restaurants. The car park is very small with very little space to maneuver into the narrow parking bays yet you will be charged to park your car there. We used the free car park on the other side of the road.

Centrally located within walking distance of town
This is your typical motel. Everything was very clean, but the floors are all tile, which can be cold and slippery depending on the weather. It's right on the edge of the town, and you can walk to all the shops and restaurants. The breakfast was decent.
