Château Saint Gilles

We arrived tired and stressed following a long journey from the South. Our greeting was welcoming and friendly. The place is serene and quiet. The rooms are lovely and face the garden. At dinner, we were taken care of by Violaine. She was professional and capable despite being the only waitress in the bar and dining room. Good breakfast, but we groaned at the self service coffee machine. Apart from that it was wonderful and we would stay again.

The Chateau was old world charming with all modern amenities. The service was amazing and the countryside is beautiful. The food was delicious. 10 min from Bayeux and WW2 tours.

When we sent photos of Chateau Saint-Gilles to our family, they asked what the tour was like? When we told them this was our home for our stay in Normandy they were shocked! That's how beautiful this amazing guest manor is, and we loved every detail! From the beautifully landscaped grounds, to the comfortable classic rooms- with every modern amenity. The restaurant is first class. The location, in a small village just outside of Bayeux, is incredibly peaceful. The Chateau is ideally located to venture out to every visitor's destination (Mont-Saint-Michel, WW2 sites, Bayeux tapestry, cider tastings). But I think among all of the great memories, the best takeaway was the amazing hospitality- Emerick and his staff do everything they can to make you feel at home. Absolutely first class accommodations!

This was absolutely wonderful! If I could give it 6 stars I would. Very peaceful, staff were attentive and so friendly. I’d go back for sure!

Outstanding place to stay! Great rooms and grounds and wonderful place to stay for doing day trips around the countryside! The food was outstanding at night. We had the beef for two and it was perfect! All local foods! We were never up early enough for breakfast. :-0. Service was the best! Would definitely come back!!!

Wonderful location , very pleasant staff A real gem spotlessly clean, great value Very relaxing great breakfast choice .

A first class experience from the start, from late off the ferry, to be greeted warmly, given guidance on the hotel and being showed to our lovely room. Breakfast first and subsequent mornings were first class, staff worked like clockwork without it feeling impersonal, good choice of hot and cold buffet foods, lots of local produce. Evening meal first night Tuesday 21st first class, again our waitress the same lady who greeted us the previous night, was friendly, very proud of explaining about the local produce from gardens and locally sourced. Excellent service. On our last night Wednesday 22nd we asked if our tour guide could join us, this was agreed, once again from the lady on reception arranging a taxi for our guest both to and from the chateau , excellent food, wine, cider and service. All the staff we met were friendly and professional. Rooms very clean and having a bath as well as shower was great. Beautiful grounds wish we had more time to explore, however we shall return. Likewise our tour guide, who was very impressed with everything about the chateau intends to recommend as a choice for his tours. He is the owner of the company, has stayed at many places over a number of years, and we all agreed, the attention to detail was superb. Many thanks

Stayed as a family of 4 at Ch St. Giles. It was a fabulous experience - a lovely property that exudes luxury coupled with friendly staff. Didn't eat breakfast, but it looked and smelled fantastic.

The Chateau Saint Gilles is a superb hotel, based on its staff, rooms, food, and location. First, the staff, Margaux, Violaine, and Barbara, are multi-lingual customer-facing professionals, who are charming, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile. The owners, Anne-Sophie & Emerick, are attentive, delightful, and hospitable. Second, the rooms are immaculate, well-provisioned, with very comfortable beds. Third, the food is first class. Cooked by consummate professionals, Frederic & cheery Francois, the variety, presentation, and taste are second to none. Lastly the location of the chateau is tremendous, as it sits centrally for the D-Day battlefields, and is surrounded by the main cultural and historical centres of Normandy. We stayed here for seven nights, and will now return next year.
