My parents spent the night of May 10th in this hotel. They were on an organized trip to several French cities. My father had an accident in the room, He suffered a deep cut in a leg after a fall. The reason for this review is to thank the staff for their help. I specially want to thank the girl who provided the first aid in a difficult situation. Sorry they don't remember your name, only that you speaks Spanish. Thanks also for all the support provided until the ambulance arrived.

On a travel trip with Gate 1 Travel recently. One of the hotels selected on our trip was Mercure Caen Centre in Caen, France. Not having been to this hotel before. I contacted the hotel by email asking if I could have a room on a higher floor. I sent the same request to the two other hotels we were staying at during our trip. The two other hotels honored my request. Upon arrival I was given keys to a room on first floor. The room was very dark. The room itself was below ground level and window which was small was on the floor level of ground. I went immediately to the front desk where the male desk clerk said he couldn’t help me. Luckily our tour guide had a copy of my email request that I had sent the hotel. Another clerk came in and she was able to provide me with a room on the 3rd floor. Which solved the problem. And I may add the female clerk was customer service friendly. If you are staying at this hotel in the future. I suggest that you make sure to avoid the rooms on lower floors and avoid rooms facing the busy streets. As many people on our trip had problems sleeping because of nightlife which the rooms face.

Clean/friendly & safe overall service- they do not provide full bathroom amenities such as hair shampoo/conditioner nor face towels. I was in with a group tour so there were about 35-40 people. They provided dinner which was served hot and table was decorated very lovely- the food was fine-basic average dinner. The bar and the bar maid were exceptionally helpful. She offered & introduced me to a local spirit cocktail & was pleasant to take my order! Breakfast was very minimal- as the table that I went to sit at had no coffee mugs or silverware- and none were at buffet table. The breakfast served its purpose and was ok. This hotel is so conveniently located to lovely eateries/shopping and entertainment- overall I would be very happy staying there again. The front desk service was also very helpful & offered any assistance possible.
