    • Quiet

    • Has restaurant.

    • Has bar/lounge.

  • If you have the energy, walk into town (15-20 mins; first few minutes no sidewalk but the rest does have sidewalk) or ask the hotel to arrange a ride.

    • Pub Fiction: beer, music, karaoke, apparently the staff and customers are super friendly.

    • Le Saint Jean: little hole in the wall, good pizzas, baked pastas, charcuterie & cheese boards. 3 mins walk from Pub Fiction. 

    • Oh LaLa: casual, burgers or meaty French dishes, modern and traditional at the same time. Also near Pub Fiction.


  • This might be an evening to eat at the hotel restaurant?

A WORD TO THE WISE: the Bayeux Tapestry, normally resident in its own museum in the city, has been removed to prepare it for a loan to the British Museum in London during your visit.
