Fully renovated, the Sure Hotel by Best Western Caen Memorial stands a one-minute walk from the Memorial de Caen, the city's landmark museum of the Second World War and a moving introduction to the story of Normandy.
The three-star hotel keeps a strong set of amenities for an easy stay: free private parking, air conditioning, a swimming pool, a fitness room, a restaurant, and free Wi-Fi, a comfortable, well-equipped base whether the trip is for remembrance, business, or a coastal holiday.
From the door, the Memorial and its gardens are steps away, with central Caen and William the Conqueror's castle close, and the D-Day landing beaches, the American cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, the Arromanches Harbor, and the Bayeux Tapestry all within an easy drive. For travelers tracing the history of the Normandy campaign, the hotel makes a fitting and well-placed home base, steps from where the story is told.
