Excellent hotel
My family of four just spent one night here. The staff was very friendly. Our room was very spacious. We had one king bed and two twin beds. The room was very clean and the beds were so comfortable. The bathroom was new and very clean. The hotel was quiet. We had a wonderful sleep and really enjoyed our night there. The hotel is located in a great location. Close to the water and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed my stay in Caen: what a wonderful place to visit. And the Campanile Caen Centre - Gare hotel was a great place to stay. Although the room was small it was clean and comfortable, and the bathroom was lovely, recently renovated it seemed, with a generously sized shower. The staff were extremely helpful, and the hotel was an easy walk from the railway station and the centre of town.

Delightful hotel, walking distance from train station. Room was small, but spotless, well-planned, and with very comfortable beds and linens. Able to walk to nearby Sunday market, boulangerie next door. Breakfast was an excellent buffet. Would stay again…

Caen, Center of Many Sights
A very convenient location to explore Caen and Lower Normandy. We made several day trips out from St. Michel in the west to the D-Day beaches. Caen has a lot to offer from William the Conqueror's tomb to wonderful restaurants.
