CHATEAU D AUDRIEU

We (wife and I with our 3 children) recently stayed at Chateau d'Audrieu for one night en-route to Cherbourg after a holiday in France. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. The staff are all amazingly helpful and polite. Little touches like cuddly toy donkeys for the kids went down very well. If you want modern, shiny bling-bling then don't go but if you want a wonderful old Chateau with excellent service in a beautiful location then d'Audrieu is a brilliant choice. We stayed in another supposedly 5* hotel for a few nights before here and it didn't compare. Chateau d'Audrieu just do everything right and it waqs the perfect place to finsh a holiday. We wish we'd spent more time here and will definitely go back.

I reserved a table at Château d’Audrieu a few days ago to celebrate my friend's expatriation. We requested a 5-course menu and, on-site, a wine pairing. We had an extraordinary time! The service and the cuisine match the setting perfectly. The team in the dining area was attentive, pleasant, responsive to our needs, and anticipated our expectations. The wine pairing was perfect. And the cuisine, what can I say… it was on par with a Michelin-starred restaurant. We will never forget this moment, and I will gladly return. My compliments to the teams.

Chef Samuel Gaspar is a star on the rise. It won’t be long before Le Seran is recognized by Michelin. He also presides over a diverse menu in the bistro that offers simpler popular options. As we stayed for over a week, Chef Gaspar offered to make us bespoke dinners, which we planned with him in advance. His dinners were amazing, a welcome finale to long days out enjoying Normandy. The dining rooms and bar are tranquil, comfortable and well-spaced for privacy. Service throughout the hotel was attentive, responsive, warm and friendly with excellent English spoken by everyone. We had two suites that were spacious and well-equipped and accessorized. Perhaps the lighting could be improved and the coaches updated. The location is very convenient for the Normandy beaches, Bayeux and Caen. It’s a bit further to Mont St Michel and Honfleur. It’s best to stop in Rouen on the drive from Paris to see the Cathedral. Our only disappointment was the gym, which is an area that needs attention. As we were staying for over a week, we found a Planet Fitness about 15 minutes drive that was great for those who are serious about exercising. We highly recommend Chateau d’Audrieu as your home-away-from-home for your Normandy visit. We
