Rooms
Each room at the hotel is individually decorated in one of a variety of styles, from a subtle nautical theme in the Captain rooms to muted florals in the Romance rooms. The contemporary minimalism of the Jardin rooms is tempered by direct access to the hotel's hanging garden. A natural theme has been chosen for the luxurious suites, which are named after plants and spices such as bergamot or cannelle (cinnamon). The suites all have their own separate lounge area and some feature open fireplaces or whirlpool baths. All rooms are quite spacious and feature free Wi-Fi and flat-screen televisions.
Location
Les Maisons de L茅a is just steps from the impressive 15th-century half-timbered Saint-Catherine鈥檚 Church in the heart of Honfleur. The Vieux Bassin (old port) is also just a short walk away, where you can stroll along the waterfront with brightly painted fishing boats bobbing in the water on one side and a long line of seafood restaurants on the other. Bayeux and the D-Day beaches are approximately an hour and half away by car.
Food and drink
A continental breakfast with homemade jams, pastries and freshly made juices can be enjoyed either in your room, in the hotel鈥檚 Restaurant de Charme or, weather permitting, outdoors on the terrace with views of the half-timbered church. In the afternoon and evening, the restaurant offers a set menu as well as an 脿 la carte menu featuring a range of regional dishes.
Facilities and activities
