Château Saint Gilles

My wife and I feel we need some superlatives to describe this place. We booked in for 3 nights, en route to the ferry at Ouistreham, after visiting family in Brittany. We wanted to see the nearby Bayeux tapestry (and did - amazing) and also have a few days of rest and relaxation. On approach, the building is impressive, handsome, set in extensive gardens, of blossom and mature trees. We received a warm welcome, and our luggage was portered to our rooms. Our suite was wonderful, tastefully furnished rooms of good proportions, with large comfortable bed. In fact, a bedroom, a sitting room, an internal hallway, bathroom and separate toilet, all with air con. The grounds comprised several acres, a mix of lawns, flower beds, woodland and greenhouse. There is an area with wooden equipment for keep-fit enthusiasts. The outdoor pool proved to be beautifully warm, and there is a sauna, jacuzzi, and similar. The staff were faultless - professional, engaging but not intrusive, and friendly. The restaurant menu covered beef, fish, chicken and vegetarian, and there were salads, burgers, etc. If staying more than 3 or 4 nights, or if one has dislike of various dishes, this menu might be somewhat limiting. But the food was excellent. Tasty. Building work to extend the restaurant area and accommodation (I believe) was not too intrusive, and almost complete. This chateau is a quality establishment. My wife and I would like to return again, for a night or two, or if the menu was more extensive, or changed from night to night, for longer. We wholeheartedly recommend Chateau Saint-Gilles.

Not enough good things to say about this hotel. The rooms are large and well appointed, the food is excellent, and the service is attentive and friendly. I stayed here for three nights with a group and I liked the location so much I would definitely come back

Lovely small hotel close to Bayeux, great location for the Normandy beaches. Friendly staff, and a great restaurant. Also, free parking onsite.

This hotel is beautifully appointed in stunning grounds approximately 4km from Bayeaux. The spacious rooms are well appointed and air conditioned, and the restaurant serves up wonderful meals in an intimate atmosphere. There’s also a heated outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna. We visited for three nights as part of a cycling tour and the staff gained rave reviews from everyone in our group.

We had a fantastic stay in Chateau Saint Gilles. Staff was friendly and our room was wonderful. It felt like the chateau was exclusive for us.

The chateau has been beautifully remodeled and is impeccable. The breakfast was very good and served buffet style. The dinner choices were excellent. It was a wonderful experience!
