Always a great stopover.
We stop regularly at this hotel when travelling from the UK to our home in France via Brittany Ferries service to Caen. This time, arriving at 22h45, our check-in was fast and welcoming, parking was easy, and our room spotless and newly refurbished. After a good night in the big comfortable bed, breakfast was ample and of good quality. We will be back!

Ideal stop off point for Carn ferry.
Booked on recommendation from a friend. Great welcome by staff very helpful & they spoke English. Used as a stop after travelling back from Spain very close to Caen to get ferry back to Portsmouth

Great location within walking distance of the town. Unfortunately there was a strong smell of stale cigarette smoke in all of the corridors and in my room.

Excellent hotel
Checked in late and was greeted by a charming Receptionist (who spoke good English). It is perfectly situated for anyone arriving from the Caen ferry and needs to travel south. The hotel is modern, functional and clean. I will certainly use it again.

This is a great hotel. Ibis seems to have tweaked its formula and now there are great common amenities like games (pool and pinball), lounges and a 24 hour bar. It is in a typical edge of town location, but, being a small town it’s definitely walkable to the centre. The staff were friendly and some spoke excellent English. The hotel was new and well maintained.

Excellent choice en route north to (Caen 50 Kms)?
We felt this hotel ticked all the boxes for an efficient and therefore relaxing overnight stay while travelling to the coast. The staff were superb - helpful and efficient. Lovely breakfast set us up for the remainder of the journey with an extensive food choice. Relaxing bar was pleasant for a nightcap. Parking at the hotel was very easy and seemed very safe and well lit in the hotel grounds. Just off the main route to Caen. It quiet and relaxed.

A comfortable and convenient nightstop
We stay regularly at this hotel on our way south from the ferry at Ouistreham. It is always a convenient and pleasant place to nightstop and is economical too. The only negatives are a) breakfast can be a bit haphazard and items are not always replenished promptly, or at all, and b) only 1 spare pillow is available in a double room, meaning that we always have to go and ask for an extra one. It makes more sense to have 2 spares, or none. Apart from those two minor grumbles we would highly recommend this hotel and Falaise is a very pleasant and interesting town to visit too.

Excellent place to stay
Excellent. Hotel has had a "makeover" since our last visit - not that it needed it - and the result is a lovely place to stay. Friendly staff, comfortable & well-appointed room. More than adequate breakfast. Only 45 minutes drive from ferry at Ouistreham. Would highly recommend.

Fab beds!
A very convenient, comfortable and economical place for an overnight stop en route through France. The newly refurbished rooms have very comfortable beds and pillows although rooms facing the Leclerc supermarket are noisier than those overlooking the car park at the back.

great stopover, just a few minutes from motorway
we stayed just one night 5 adults and 1 dog we had 3 rooms all rooms were ok not huge but ok for one night, bathrooms were clean, the only negative was all rooms had a stale smell of cigarette smoke also there was no tea/coffee facilities, But on the PLUS side the restaurant / bar area was really good stuff very helpful and friendly and food was really good, evening meal served quickly hot and tasty breakfast was the best we had had in several hotels in France, so just a pity about the stale smell in the rooms.

A quiet, comfortable stopover.
We regularly use this hotel as a night stop on our trips to France as it is 30 minutes from the Caen ferry and close to the motorway. The staff are efficient and welcoming even when we arrive very late and it is a very cost-effective place to stay.

Well located, large bedrooms
Large rooms, poorly equipped- no kettle, no water, no soaps or shampoos etc. Breakfast was an expensive mistake. Evening meal was the opposite, great and good value. Its an overnight stop hotel as opposed to a nice one. Good enough for 1 night. But get breakfast elsewhere - 300 yrds to the old city of Falaise and bars etc. Odd numbers noisy from traffic.

Perfect location just off motorway.
Had an overnight stay here on the way back to Caen. We needed a stop and this hotel perfectly fit the bill. The staff were very helpful and spoke super English. Would definitely recommend this place. The room was adeqate( no tea-making facilities ) for an overnight stay.

Hotel Falaise - excellent value
I have used this hotel several times as a base for exploring the D-Day Landing Beaches and as usual received the warm welcome and friendly service characteristic of Ibis Hotels. Can heartily recommend this hotel as incredible value for money. The spectacular view of William the Conqueror's Castle from my bedroom window was a bonus.

Convenient Location
This was an overnight stop on our way home from Brittany. It is a typical Ibis - clean, comfortable and efficient. It is outside Falaise and no choice of places to eat apart from the hotel restaurant, but the surroundings are open and quiet. There is a large supermarket just across the road.

COMFORTABLE HOTEL
I travel all over France with my work, this has been one of the best all round hotels I have stayed in. I took a gamble on others reviews as there was limited choice near my place of work which was an hours drive, I am so glad I have found this hotel as I will be using it again. The free wifi worked very well and the rooms were a reasonable comfortable size. good choice of breakfast and the evening restaurant food was very good. Restaurant was not open when I arrived on a Sunday but there is a McDonalds just up the road from the Hotel.

Convenient stop.
Staff were very welcoming, polite and helpful. Room was clean and a reasonable size. Convenient place to stay for ease of getting to car ferry at Caen, which is why we chose it. but a bit far from town (walking) centre and no easy alternative to eating at the hotel, as there were few restaurants to choose from in Falaise itself. Enjoyable stay and reasonable value for money.

Location near our point of interest
The staff was excellent but the beds were VERY hard and uncomfortable. There were very little English speaking assistance or information in English for an area of the world that has many English speaking people. Our families fought for this area, and many died here! Surely an English paper or English speaking member of staff is not asking a lot. Someone to give directions at least.
