Les Jardins de Coppélia

Guests admire the immaculate, spacious rooms and attentive staff. The spa center, pool, and personalized service are highly praised. However, some may find the decor slightly repetitive.

—＞ The restaurant is very exclusive, as in not available We had booked this hotel because it had a restaurant. We were here for 4 nights but the restaurant was closed for 2 nights, the third night it was fully booked (because there was not enough staff) and on the fourth night there was a BBQ for 75 Euro pp. So we could not access the restaurant and had to look for alternatives. There is not much spontaneous help from the people at the reception. When we asked for an alternative we got one (1) recommendation for a beach bar, but it was closed as well. Finding a restaurant in Honfleur is a challenge. But we have found several good ones that can be an alternative: L’Envie, L’Endroit, L’escale, and L’ecailleur. There is a bar where you can have some bites, but that does not replace a full meal. —＞ The pool The swimming pool is great but there are not enough chairs so you need to hurry to occupy seats in the morning, which is not very peaceful. The chairs are very heavy lounge chairs with pillows. We doubt the hygiene as people are lying directly on them, even with their feet on the head pillows. We had to clean the crisps that were still on the chairs when we arrived. The drinks at the cocktail bar near the pool are of various quality and quantity. 16 Euro for a small Mojito in a small plastic cup is for sure exaggerated. 8 Euro for a Coke as well. The personnel at the pool bar is very helpful. When the sunscreens were blown away they came to the rescue. —＞ The breakfast The breakfast is abundant. You can enjoy it on the terrace. —＞ Not for children The hotel is not suited for small children. There is nothing to do for them. I would recommend the hotel to either invest in a children’s corner / swimming pool or adopt an adults only policy. The sounds of playing children is not a problem, but crying babies can be annoying. If you want to find some quiet, you should go to the garden, where you can find few chairs. —＞ The rooms The rooms are spacious and provide the necessary comfort. There is however no airconditioning. On a hot day the heat was overwhelming. The staff was kind enough to provide a cooling fan. —＞ Conclusion A beautiful place that needs to step up its service model The hotel is in a beautiful place, in a beautiful garden. It is beautifully decorated and it has everything to be the luxury place the price would suggest it to be. If only they could make sure their guests can eat at the restaurant and can enjoy the facilities. Hotel management should never forget that for 400 Euros per night, one could expect a full service, not one that is convenient for the hotel.
