Across many reviews, ibis Caen Porte d’Angleterre is praised for friendly, helpful staff, generally clean rooms, good breakfasts, and secure on‑site parking, with a convenient location for Caen and the ferry, plus practical family rooms.

Common downsides include limited or closed restaurant service at times, occasionally prioritizing coach groups, and few nearby dining options.

Close to ferry port which made it perfect for a night following a late crossing. Easy and plentiful on-site parking is great when arriving late. Great room for family of 5! Essentially one double room and a triple for the kids within one unit was ideal. Very good breakfast and friendly staff is always a big bonus. Will definitely stay here again.

Hôtel clairement vieillissant avec la chambre et salle de bain petites. La baignoire était très élevée avec des rideaux, meubles vieillissants, une moquette horrible et il n'y avait même pas de bouilloire ou sèche cheveux disponible... Le parking privé était complètement plein pendant la nuit et on a eu de la chance de ne pas arriver trop tard et de prendre une des dernières places. Honnêtement je n'aime pas des hôtels chers et dans cette voyage j'ai choisi plusieurs hôtels 1 étoile qui coûtaient 1/3 du prix de cet hôtel (qui est supposé être "3 étoiles"), et les autres hôtels moins chers étaient meilleurs que celui-ci, ce qui était très décevant... Je suis déjà resté à plusieurs autres Ibis et ils étaient moins chers et de meilleure qualité. Celui est le pire que j'ai déjà vu...

It was perfect for what we wanted. Family room was great - 2 room apartment basically but the kids couldn't go anywhere without going past us. Car park seemed safe and secure. Only thing to make it a perfect score would be a kettle in the room and air conditioning. There are no shops/resturants nearby so eating/drinking is in the dining room or travelling out. .

The hotel boasts a restaurant but we were told at reception it was unavailable on the night of our stay, meaning we had to go into town to eat. Getting back we found it full, a coach party being given priority over the other guests. On leaving they could find no trace of us paying our local tax althogh we'd paid in cash the day before. All a bit shabby really and how the hotel is ranked 3 stars is a mystery. Would not stay again.

We have arrived late at night as came from night time ferry, the potter who welcomed us was very friendly. Room was nice and had separate bedroom for kids. It was a very modern and clean room, although beds could be more comfortable as they seemed to be on a quite firm side. Very powerful shower was great, and really needed after a hot day out. Despite very hot weather room was kept cool at nice temperature. Breakfast was very nice, and had a lot of choice, so even our fussy little man found something to have. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Friendly, helpful and very accommodating front staff. Breakfast was great - lots of options - especially like the variety of breads, jams and eggs. Beds were very comfy. After a long and busy day at the sights and museum in Caen, we arrived about 7 pm expecting to have a nice dinner and a glass of wine. Unfortunately the dining room was closed because they were hosting a bus tour group. Ugh!! rather disappointing - the staff suggested several local restaurants or take out. So we decided on a pizza take-out and when I went back down to the desk to have them help me order, the kitchen staff took pity on a little old lady and made us a very nice meal with salad - and a big glass of wine. That was a sign of "above and beyond" and very much appreciated. A suggestion would be have a portion of the restaurant partitioned off for guests who are not on a tour - even just a portable type screen. Interestingly enough we were from Canada and we could hear the people in the tour group talking about "back home in Canada" The dining room is beautifully appointed - outdoor patio looked very inviting - just that the weather didn't cooperate. Liked the parking lot - felt safe leaving the car overnight - rather than in a public parking lot or on the street. Very quiet - had a great sleep Would definitely stay again - and recommend it to others.

Hotel was ok, in dodgy area but quiet enough. No restaurant on as it was bank holiday in France, staff felt like they didn't want to be there and were really not bothered. Room was ok, basic, no tea/coffee you had to go to reception and it was not a comfortable experience. We left early and didn't try food.

The hotel was old with small rooms, which was expected being an Ibis. However, the area is awfully. Kids riding motorcycles, no helmets and balaclavas pulling wheelies in the street and on footpaths. The area is not pleasant and I would say to be avoided especially at night.
