What guests think
At Best Western Royal Hotel Caen, travellers consistently praise the very central location and helpful staff, while recurring reports of nighttime street noise and occasional air conditioning outages indicate some trade-offs to consider.
Rooms are generally clean and comfortable, with layouts ranging from compact to spacious and some bathrooms feeling tight or using shower-over-bath setups. Breakfast receives frequent compliments for quality and choice, though others find it pricey or limited, and a few note a cramped room or cutlery handling. Parking is straightforward in the public garage across the street, typically paid. Overall, expect a practical city base with strong convenience and some urban-center compromises.

Public underground parking across the street is convenient but paid, and some guests received tips or vouchers that helped. Several reviews reported air conditioning outages during stays; one noted a temporary elevator shutdown.

Air conditioning had not been working for days before my 24 hour cancellation window expired and didn’t say that the a/c wasn’t working, and wouldn’t be working the entire time we would be there. Discovered this when we got into our room and there was a letter in the bed stating it was not working, offered as much ice and water dispenser water that we wanted. I could have gone elsewhere if they had told me the situation. Had to sleep with the windows wide open and the noise outside and street lights of course led to not sleeping the entire stay! Don’t even offer a free breakfast or free parking to say sorry about the situation!

Expérience globalement très décevante. Dès l’arrivée, l’accueil était froid et peu engageant, sans aucun sens du service. L’établissement semble se réfugier derrière des arguments écologiques pour justifier des manquements basiques. Aucune bouteille d’eau n’est fournie, uniquement des carafes à remplir à l’entrée, sans bouchon ni moyen de transport, ce qui est peu pratique et franchement limite pour un hôtel. La climatisation était en panne, et malgré cela, aucune attention particulière n’a été portée au confort des clients. Même pas une bouteille d’eau dans la chambre, ce qui aurait pourtant semblé être un minimum en période de forte chaleur. La propreté des chambres était correcte, mais le ménage était clairement insuffisant. Seul le lit a été refait, rien d’autre n’a été nettoyé ou remis en ordre. L’hôtel n’a strictement aucun charme. La décoration est impersonnelle, la salle du petit déjeuner est triste et étouffante. On n’a qu’une envie : sortir prendre l’air. Le seul point positif reste sa localisation en centre-ville. Pour le reste, une expérience sans intérêt, sans confort, et sans attention. Nous ne reviendrons pas.

Muito bem localizado, confortável, com equipe atenciosa. Tem estacionamento, cobrado. Não usamos, porque estacionamos na rua, já que há um estacionamento na frente, com parquímetro. Em vez de pagar 19 euros, deixei na rua à noite, gratuitamente, e às 9 horas da manhã paguei o estacionamento público - 3,60 euros. Também não valia a pena o café da manhã - 21,00 euros por pessoa -, já que a duas ou três quadras do hotel há o bom “Columbus Café”, em que tomamos café da manhã por 15 euros os três - 5,00 por pessoa.

An underground car park is opposite the hotel at euro 19 for 24 hours so made it easy to get to the car during storms, although car spaces were tight and much manoeuvring required. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby.

This hotel is in a good location although if your room faces the square it's a bit noisy at night. This didn't matter to us as it was great for people-watching. The hotel is clean and bed was huge. The staff were very unwelcoming on our arrival, they offered no map or information about the City. We had to ask about breakfast, and places to eat for dinner. It wasn't explained to us that thete was a guest bar/lounge. Different staff member next morning, same unfriendly demeanour. Although we reported that pipe under our bathroom basin was leaking, it remained unfixed for our stay. The 2 women working in breakfast room were the only helpful people we encountered. However, taxi drivers in Caen were great!

Même pas une bouteille d’eau dans la chambre, ce qui aurait pourtant semblé être un minimum en période de forte chaleur. La propreté des chambres était correcte, mais le ménage était clairement insuffisant. Seul le lit a été refait, rien d’autre n’a été nettoyé ou remis en ordre. L’hôtel n’a strictement aucun charme. La décoration est impersonnelle, la salle du petit déjeuner est triste et étouffante. On n’a qu’une envie : sortir prendre l’air. Le seul point positif reste sa localisation en centre-ville. Pour le reste, une expérience sans intérêt, sans confort, et sans attention. Nous ne reviendrons pas.

Location
Exceptionally central and walkable, close to restaurants, shops, sights and public transport, making it a convenient base for Caen and Normandy. Several reviews caution about nighttime noise for rooms facing the square.

We were on the front of the property and it was quite noisy from the people in the Square well into the early hours.

It was a lovely hotel in the heart of the city. It was easy to walk everywhere and the hotel itself was very nice and clean. The room was exceptional, especially for the good price. We highly recommend it.

Room was smaller than expected, very tight to unload two suitcases, but I guess it is Europe. Beautiful view of court yard outside. Walkable to the old city, churches, and many restaurants

Great location, friendly staff, spacious comfy rooms and a car park just feet away. It was ideal of a one night stop over for us but would also be a good centre for a few days. Restaurants just a short walk away and a nice breakfast. Would have preferred non machine coffee but it was still good.

De lokatie is prima en het is netjes en schoon. De kamer is wat klein en het ontbijt heeft geen verse croissants e.d. van de bakker en het gekookt ei is ijskoud en dus duidelijk de dag ervoor gekookt. Er is geen versfruit. En dat voor ongeveer 18 euro pp is ronduit slecht.

Location was very good. Receptionists were very helpful, in particular one who was totally fluent in English. In the breakfast room I observed that the knives and forks were placed with the handles at the bottom of the containers with knives and forks. It means everybody will touch the part you put in your mouth when they pick up theirs. It is also a health code violation (at least in the US). When I took my concerns to the reception they said, actually some other guest pointed it out also, but I do not think they will change it while you are here! REALLY. S I did not take breakfast any more in the hotel..

Séjour en famille, la climatisation dans une des deux chambres ne fonctionnait pas, ainsi que la VMC de la salle de bain. Hôtel bruyant, mauvaise isolation des fenêtres, dommage. Petit déjeuner simple dans une salle de réunion étroite. Pour une nuit je conseil, mais pour plus non. Sinon l’hôtel est bien placé.

Muito bem localizado, confortável, com equipe atenciosa. Tem estacionamento, cobrado. Não usamos, porque estacionamos na rua, já que há um estacionamento na frente, com parquímetro. Em vez de pagar 19 euros, deixei na rua à noite, gratuitamente, e às 9 horas da manhã paguei o estacionamento público - 3,60 euros. Também não valia a pena o café da manhã - 21,00 euros por pessoa -, já que a duas ou três quadras do hotel há o bom “Columbus Café”, em que tomamos café da manhã por 15 euros os três - 5,00 por pessoa.

No ventilation in the bathroom/ loo, which is disgraceful in an en suite small bedroom. Told staff immediately but maintenance came after as 1 night stay. Breakfast was ok, hot was baked beans and scrambled or boiled your own egg. Ran out of croissants Reception staff friendly and really helpful . Bath with shower over too dangerous as no anti slip mat. Coffee tea in room abysmal, old looking instant sachets, no milk, cheap mugs no handles. Up your game

Location and property were perfect for exploring D-Day beaches and Caen. Staff was extremely helpful and rooms were clean …and what a beautiful view from our balcony. We requested close or connecting rooms and we received connecting rooms - this is such a struggle at many other hotels now. It was such an easy and memorable stay.
