The Originals Boutique, Hôtel Ô Gayot, Bagnoles-de-l'Orne

Lovely boutique hotel - great value, perfect location, no onsite parking, but lots of free parking adjacent to the hotel. The town is beautiful - like a perfect Wes Anderson backdrop, the buildings are simply stunning, so if you love architecture, you’ll love this place. We ate in the hotel on 2 evenings and the meals were very good - in particular, the Normandy Steak was exceptional. In the bar (very nice) also try a Normandie, with calvados and whipped cream…. we will miss those, but we did bring a bottle of Calvados home with us so will be trying to re-create it, albeit the setting won’t be quite the same!!|

Such a quaint hotel. The staff were so attentative and kind. We had a lovely room which was very comfortable. We had both dinner and breakfast and both were delicious. We stayed here as a stop off on our way to the Loire Valley from Cherbourg. Will be back for sure!

Stayed at Hotel in past and found standards had dropped. Hotel needs updating and communications were poor

Rooms and food good. Staff were friendly and helpful. When we arrived (cycling the veloscenie) soaking wet to find our luggage hadn’t arrived yet the receptionist rang our tour operator to chase them up without us even asking her to. Many thanks!

My wife and i have visited this Hotel on two previous occasions. It is situated in the middle of a small and classy spa town within easy reach of the attractions,and within easy reach of lovely countryside.|| The Hotel itself has a lift,therefore providing easy access to all rooms for the disabled..|| The bedrooms are very clean and comfortable,and the Restaurant inside,and outside the premises provide good food at reasonable prices. The service provided,is excellent and professional. Nothing is too much trouble.|| The is no private parking. This is not a criticism. The situation of the building does not provide for it.|| However there is ample public parking,which is free,on the street exactly outside the Hotel. You just have to plan your arrival. Lunchtime can be busy.

A nine day driving tour of Normandie and Brittany that involved 4 en- route hotels on the way to our Morbihon AirBnb. ||This Hotel scored top points in location, reception, room quality, huge bathroom, amazing restaurant, and overall welcome.

The service was not very good and they were struggling to cope obviously. My starter and main course looked good but were bland as if the chef forgot to use seasoning. The desert was exceptionally good as was the wine. I know Sunday lunchtimes are busy but they should be better organised to cope. We were never asked if we were happy with our food. Waiter attention is important and expected in an establishment like this one. At 27 euros for a 3 course lunch, this was poor value for money.

Arrived to find room not made up as a twin. Taken to a room with smaller bed made up as twins so narrow hard to sleep. Nothing in room in the way of refreshment not even a bottle of water and the room was hot - couldn't open window as too much noise from road outside. Looks nice on website but actually bit tatty and dated. Towels need replacing they are so old. Restaurant nicely decorated and furnished and food good so disappointing to find hotel not to same standard. Have eaten in the hotel many times over many years and always fancied staying - would not do so again. Charged same for smaller room which was not good but lack of interest in addressing this.

I had a pleasant lunch here with some friends. They had the daily special, a grilled salmon pavè and I opted for the steak tartare. The steak tartare was a bit surprising in that it seemed a bit coarsely chopped but it was perfectly tender. The salmon pleased as well. While I wasn't particularly turned on by the menu when I read it on the street it did seem to offer just the right combination of plates to get us in the door. Nice decor, pleasant service, a decent wine list that included very reasonable carafes. While I wouldn't go out of my way to get here it's a good stop in town.

Excellent restaurant with a lovely patio perfect for a sunny Sunday. The staff is kind and they speak enough English to get you by. Try the chef's special, won't disappoint!
