Nice breakfast and dinner was good. Overall property though is a bit tired and dated. Lift out of action. Outdoor pool closed despite stating it open in September. They insisted upon a 250 Euro deposit on check in despite me having already paid for the room and breakfast in full beforehand. Money was duly taken free my account but returned a day later but you should bear this in mind.

Used this Novotel as a stop over. Was clean, is in need of an update, stair wells filled with bed linen, lifts not working, bar/restaurant had inattentive staff, but all were very polite when you managed to get someone.
More of a 3 star, not a 4 like many other Novotels we have stayed in, however the price was still very reasonable.

Good location near to the race track. The lifts were broken when we were there so that meant carrying heavy luggage upstairs to our room. The family room was no bigger than a standard room. The twin sofa bed just about fit so we could all sleep but there wasn’t much room for moving around. The shower didn’t drain properly. The breakfast was decent with a good choice of food and drinks. Overall, it was acceptable but I’d imagine there were better hotels in the area for the price.
Great facilities and gentleman that checked us in was really nice. The power cut ruined our stay as we were all sat in bed for a family movie and the power was lost on the 3rd floor for just over an hour.

Hotel room contained items from previous guest including shower gels and jewellery (handed to receptionist). Bathroom clean and bed freshly made. No complaints there. Outside play area for children and outdoor pool free to use. Brasserie attached to the hotel very convenient for food and drinks. Play area for children indoors with games and books etc.

Novotel generally of d high standard with a pool and a good restaurant in a quiet area of south LeMans with private parking . However lift was out of order, stairwell was incredibly smelly and room was quite smelly. Breakfast service was a lower standard than usual with slow table clearing service even at the end of the breakfast period. There is an amazing bakery La Feuilette about half a mile from the hotel providing alternatives to the paid for breakfast. Novotels normally high standards were slipping a bit on this occasion, but on balance still a great stopover midway between southern France and Calais Eurotunnel.

Generally good. But the electric car charging facilities were very poor. Firstly they looked dangerous/ out of action and secondly they didn’t have commonly used plug sockets. The nearest alternative chargers are a long way away, which was extremely inconvenient. I won’t stay again unless they upgrade their electric chargers.

Don’t eat here if you have allergies
The worst place have ever eaten as a coeliac. Daughter was given ‘penne’ as a gluten free meal. It wasn’t a gluten free version. Some staff were doing their best to help and clearly hasn’t been given any training on allergies. One member of staff (and the allergen menu) said chips were gf, the next member of staff said they were not. Do not eat here if you have allergies. The staff were lovely and just doing their best.

Nice place for a stop on the way through France. Outdoor pool and play area was great for kids!
Seems everyone else had the same idea!
Restaurant gets booked up quickly and we struggled to eat due to delays getting to the hotel with the now inevitable immigration delays at Caen port. Uber Eats to the hotel was a saviour.
Breakfast on the other hand was utterly appalling. Came down at 0830 to find the buffet completely devoid of food and the staff very slow to react and stock up. Even then it was limited. Not sure what the issue was that a breakfast advertised to 10am was lacking 90 mins before that.
If they sorted out the food and drink issues at this hotel, it would be a much better experience for all guests.
