    As the trip planner for our group, I wanted to mark the occasion with something special, so I…read morebooked our first ever Michelin star dining experience. After a full day touring the D-Day sites, we were ready for a memorable dinner. The location was easy to find and the exterior was inviting. Staff were attentive, fluent in English, and great at walking us through the menu. On that note, so was every other guest in the restaurant. Literally every table appeared to be American, including a fairly boisterous group seated right next to us. It was a jarring contrast to the quieter, more intimate French restaurants we'd visited earlier in the trip. The food was a mixed bag. The turbot fillet was outstanding, easily among the best fish I've ever had, and the mango and passion fruit rice pudding was a wonderful finish. The rest of the meal, though, didn't leave much of an impression for the price. Speaking of price, come prepared for a steep bill. And if the Michelin star draws you in hoping for an authentic French atmosphere, you may leave a little underwhelmed. On our walk home we passed a charming local spot and all quietly wished we'd eaten there instead.

    We originally booked a table at a restaurant nearby but found it overrun with a tour group. Another…read morewas fully booked. We saw a sign for this place off the main drag and looked about. There were a few recognizable recommendations including Michelin so we popped in and were surprised that we were cheerfully seated, though we had no reservation. After ordering a nice bottle of wine, we ordered from the prefix menus. Prior to being served our starters, we were given a sampling of arancini. It looked similar to what we have had in Italy only here instead of Mazzarella cheese it was made with a local cheese. And boy was it really good! The fish soup was very tasty and the turbot entree was among the best fish dishes I've ever had. The fish was served over leeks in a white lightly creamy sauce with a delicious cheese flavor. The cod entree was also quite good. Our deserts, the apple tart with ice cream and the cheese board were well worth the calories. The local cheeses were amazing and even the crackers were special with lots of grains and flavor. The one issue I frequently have doing yelp reviews is that you are limited to whole stars. In this particular instance, given the excellent food, friendly and prompt service in the nicely restored old structure that made for a comfortable dining experience, I would give five stars. However, one of the soups and one of the entrées had to be sent back because they arrived lukewarm. Thus, I would offer up 4 1/2 stars. Given my dilemma, and the fact that the dishes temperature were easy to rectify, five stars it is.

    Our tour group had stopped briefly in Honfleur and we were only across the road from Les Maisons de…read moreLea. It is a hotel and a spa. It was an awful day in terms of the weather, cold and damp and we needed to reenergize. Several of us went in to get a snack and to use the loo. We were seated and given menus. Most of us got coffee and a sweet to eat. We were not going to be guests here and after our snack, we had to get going on the next leg of the tour. The cake, hot chocolate and coffee were good and gave us the much needed energy to continue on. It was a pleasant break, the waitress accommodating [despite the fact we did not speak French and she did not speak English] and I would encourage you to try it if you are in Honfleur.

    It would be very easy to drop a point off for the room amenities, such as the shower, and separate…read moretoilet facilities that we encountered in the rooms, but, and a BIG BUT, you have to understand the age of the building, and what the owners had to work with and work around without affecting the structure. I am not going to dwell on this any further, just be prepared and understand these constraints. This also needs to be clearly explained when travelling with very discerning children who are used to more modern amenities. Unfortunately, we didn't sample the evening food, but other residents we met were complimentary, with the caveat that the prices were top end. However, breakfast was varied. Cold meats, and as you would expect, very continental. Facility to cook your own boiled egg. A machine in the bar area to get freshly squeezed orange juice. I cannot remember the price for the breakfast as the booking was done by friends, I would guess in the region of 15 Euros. We enjoyed the use of secure parking, but away from the hotel. It did require two of us to put in the code whilst the other drove the car into the area before the gates closed. We had two cars in the party. The staff were extremely pleasant. The thing I encountered generally on my travels in Spanish and French hotels was getting the use of an iron and ironing board. I requested one here, and they had difficulty in providing one to our room, but they offered to iron the clothes. Which to my mind was even better, and at no extra cost. We would stay here again. It is set close to the town and harbour restaurants. FRENCH: Il serait très facile de laisser tomber un point départ pour les équipements des chambres , comme la douche et des toilettes séparées que nous avons rencontrés dans les chambres , mais , et un grand mais , vous devez comprendre l'âge de l'immeuble , et ce les propriétaires ont dû travailler avec et contourner sans affecter la structure. Je ne vais pas insister sur ce plus loin, juste être prêt et de comprendre ces contraintes. Ce doit également être clairement expliqué lorsque vous voyagez avec des enfants très exigeants qui sont utilisés pour des équipements plus modernes. Malheureusement, nous ne l'avons pas testé les repas du soir, mais d'autres habitants que nous avons rencontrés étaient complémentaires, avec l'avertissement que les prix étaient extrémité supérieure. Cependant, le petit déjeuner était varié. Viandes froides, et comme on peut s'y attendre, très continental. Facilité à cuisiner votre propre œuf à la coque. Une machine dans la zone du bar pour obtenir jus d'orange frais. Je ne me souviens pas le prix pour le petit déjeuner que la réservation a été faite par des amis, je dirais dans la région de 15 Euros. Nous avons apprécié l'utilisation du parking sécurisé, mais loin de l'hôtel. Il a besoin de deux d'entre nous de mettre dans le code tandis que l'autre conduisait la voiture dans la zone devant les portes fermées. Nous avions deux voitures dans le parti. Le personnel était extrêmement agréable. La chose que je rencontrais généralement sur mes voyages dans des hôtels espagnols et français devenait l'utilisation d'un fer et une planche à repasser. Je demande un ici, et ils ont eu des difficultés à fournir un à notre chambre, mais ils nous ont proposé de repasser les vêtements. Qui à mon esprit était encore mieux, et sans frais supplémentaires. Nous reviendrions ici. Il est situé près de la ville et du port restaurants.
