This home was just gorgeous and I only wish we had stayed longer! The owners have thought of every little detail. It is comfortable yet very elegant. The location is perfect being in the heart of Bayeux. Very easy to walk to restaurants and other places and easy for tour guide and taxi drivers to pick up as well. The check in and check processes were smooth and painless. Would love to return. We especially enjoyed the garden for relaxing. Thank you for renovating this beautiful old madame into such a hotel!

Dear Aryn,
Thank you so much for your kind review. We are delighted that you enjoyed the comfort, elegance, and location of the house, and that everything from check-in to check-out went smoothly.
It means a lot to us that you appreciated the care that went into the renovation and enjoyed relaxing in the garden. Preserving the charm of this beautiful old lady while offering modern comfort has been a true passion project.
We would be thrilled to welcome you back to Bayeux anytime!
Warm regards,

Un séjour merveilleux à l'Hôtel d'Auxais. L'histoire de la maison et la rénovation spectaculaire étaient impressionnantes. La maison était très spacieuse pour notre groupe, composé de deux couples d'adultes. Nous avons vraiment apprécié passer du temps ensemble dans une maison aussi magnifique. Le salon/salle de séjour et la cuisine sont magnifiquement décorés, avec des meubles confortables et des appareils de haute qualité/ustensiles de cuisine dans la cuisine. Les chambres et les salles de bains étaient également décorées avec soin et très relaxantes après une longue journée. Avoir l'opportunité de séjourner dans une maison aussi historique et charmante en France a été une expérience unique et spéciale. Franck et son équipe ont été très réactifs tout au long de notre séjour, depuis la réservation, en passant par les diverses questions, jusqu'à leur accueil à la porte lors de notre arrivée et départ, et l'organisation du transport pour nous rendre à la gare et en revenir. Nous serions tous absolument ravis de séjourner ici à nouveau.
Un écrin hors du temps dans une région chargée d'histoire: expérience inoubliable!
Nous avons passé un séjour incroyable à l'Hôtel d'Auxais, qui a clairement dépassé toutes nos attentes.
Bayeux est une jolie ville et l'Hôtel est situé à proximité de nombreuses boutiques, pâtisseries, restaurants et musées. L'emplacement est parfait pour explorer les points forts de la Normandie, y compris les activités liées au D-Day et le Mont St-Michel.
L'Hôtel d'Auxais, écrin de raffinement, a tout ce dont vous pourriez avoir besoin et la cuisine est très bien équipée pour préparer tout mets de votre choix.
Cet endroit est un véritable bijou que j'aimerais garder pour moi, mais le faire vivre participe aussi à sa beauté, alors allez-y !
Merci encore à Franck - d'une diligence à toute épreuve -ainsi qu'à toute l'équipe.
We decided to restore the Auxais Mansion in Bayeux to welcome guests as we would wish to be welcomed—warmly, respectfully, and with attention to detail. We enjoy sharing the stories of this region and ensuring that your stay feels personal, memorable, and comfortable.
Why they chose this property
We chose Bayeux for its unique blend of history, beauty, and its meaningful place in the story of Normandy. Located in the very heart of the historical centre, just minutes from the D‑Day landing beaches, Bayeux is one of the few towns spared from total destruction during WWII. Walking its streets gives you a direct connection to the past—be it the Cathedral, the World‑Renowned Tapestry, or the surrounding Normandy countryside. It’s a place where heritage, culture, and nature combine in peaceful harmony
What makes this property unique
Auxais Mansion is a beautifully restored 18th‑century private mansion set in the centre of Bayeux. Its character blends historic charm—built on Gallo‑Roman remains and old castle ramparts—with modern luxuries: premium beds, multiple baths, private garden and courtyard, full amenities, free parking, and short distances to landmarks and transport. We offer not just a place to stay, but an experience of living history, comfort, and elegance in Normandy.
