Yes, this is a 2-star hotel but the location is fabulous, just 2 minutes from the ferry port. The staff are very friendly, the room was comfortable and clean and breakfast was good value for money. I would definitely stay again when I travel to Caen.
This Best Western is located in Ouistreham, 2 km from the ferry terminal and 7 km from Normandy's famous landing beaches. Guests can enjoy the outdoor heated pool.

I'm sure IF the checking in system worked and IF the numbering system for door entry worked (Thanks you to Clementine, receptionist fofsorting out the system,) my stay would have been very good..

It is a lovely place to discover, beautiful walkways along the the marina, the historic center is pretty. The big problem is the presence of the africans,, all young men with Iphones and trendy clothing, certainly not refugees, lurking around everywhere, day and night, breaking into UK cars, if they are big enough to try to get to England. They are squatting around every corner, littering , urinating etc. Really it is a shame.

We were getting there to eat at "La moulerie" in front of the Casino (for sea food) and get to the "Criée" early in the morning to buy fish and sea food. We managed to get everything done properly.

I really wasn't there long enough to say anything about Ouistreham itself - I stopped briefly in Caen on the way and I certainly enjoyed the old half-timbered houses in the centre. The Castle will be a must see on my next visit, as will the beautiful old Norman/Romanesque churches and the nearby coastline, such as nearby-Dives-sur-Mer, where I stayed on a previous trip to Normandy and I can certainly recommend with its ancient church. Falaise Castle, said to be the castle of William the Conqueror, is the far side of Caen.

We have been here 20+ times as it is our twin town.
We have been here 20+ times as it is our twin town. The beach is lovely, the town is pleasant and we always have a good time. We stayed here in the hotel for one night after a trip further south and chose the Hotel du Phare because of its position. It is a typical, old style French hotel. The drains smell was off putting: the breakfast was good and the staff excellent.

Be prepared to walk a lot, so comfy shoes a must, I did find out on my last day that you can hire push bikes at the beach per hour, which is great because Ouistreham and it’s surrounding are quite big, the beaches are spotless and very impressive as is the history surrounding the area, I would say the area is very geared up for French tourism, so a basic grasp of French is a good idea, as most menus, and staff only speak French, having said that, there are plenty of English speaking people around in case your struggling !!

The resort was a surprise, because we expected just the port, but when we went for a wander around after driving up from Guidel Plages we found the enormous long sandy beach and all the amenities. It’s obviously hugely popular on warm days and stretches for miles. Many of the 2nd WW beaches are within easy reach. This might not be the prettiest place, but it has a lot more going for it than we had expected.
Location for the ferry port is excellent and yet is close to bars and restaurants.
The reception was extremely friendly and helpful (Julien) and although hotel reception is only manned for a couple of hours in the afternoon, Julien had made every effort to ensure that we knew how to access our room, with email and text instructions.
The rooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean.
The apartment is really amazing, very clean and we loved all the retro furnishings.
The maniquin was a little bit creepy at first but we soon got used to him, I named him Joe 😁
The location was great for us, 2 minutes from the ferry port. I parked just round the corner from the apartment, loads of parking!
Shops right on the doorstep 😀
Really loved this apartment!
It was very quiet and clean, we relaxed a lot in the pools and me and mg mother enjoyed the different treatments. I really loved the relaxing massage although it’s only 25 minutes. The hotel is located in front of a big beach which allows for long and nice walks. Breakfast was really good with lots of choice.
The dinner menu is wonderful! Great selection and full flavor. The breakfast menu leaves much to be desired, but considering the room rate, it is definitely worth it. The hotel is older, but clean. If you can’t climb stairs, you need to skip this gem. And it is a gem.
The hotel is situated within a short distance of the ferry port and has a private car park behind the building. I find this preferable to having to park in a public car park open to people walking past. The access door was very useful as I was leaving very early.
This hotel is an ideal location for catchig the early morning ferry and they suppy breakfast starting at 6.30. The Ferry port is just 2 minutes away. The restaurant had the one menu but this was fine and a Monday night when eveywhere else seemed closed.
The room was beautiful and clean. There is a real family-business sense about the place and service was good and was very personalised. The hotel was full of charm and I would definitely recommend on balance. Very relaxed but attentive customer service.
Although it's pretty basic, this hotel is well designed and had anything we needed for our 4 days stay near Caen. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice shower with good pression and breakfast included. Wifi worked very well and they offer free parking.
Nothing. It was so horrendous that we stayed for about half an hour before deciding the situation was unsalvagable, and we left and got a room at a nearby hotel. This us a terrible accomodation for someone who's got to catch an early ferry.
Didn't have breakfast had early ferry to catch could start earlier but set up looked really good. Location perfect for bars, restaurants, boulanger, beach and ferry port. Staff very welcoming and lovely quintessential period hotel.
Easy to find when coming off the ferry in the evening. Reception was open and easy to deal with.
Breakfast had a great choice of cereal, toast, croissants, yoghurts,ham and cheese and ham. All staff were pleasant and welcoming.
Convenient location ; hotel management demonstrating great sense of humour (british?) by calling the rooms "cabins" due to their size. Bathroom OK. Appreciated always-on power socket that can be used for electric cooler.
We arrived in Caen very late from the ferries and a member of staff contacted me to give me the code to get in to the hotel and left the keys with my name and instructions. I really appreciate it that.
