I have led student Battlefields tours to Europe & have stayed at the Churchill with groups as large as 45 and I have no hesitation in stating that this is 'the best Hotel in Normandy'! In fact it is the only hotel worthy my "Battlefields business". The service is 5-Star; the staff sets a high standard for accomodation; Rima & Jacques Hebert care deeply about getting the full
' Norman experience' while there, and (for Canadians) this is a wonderful location for your study of Juno Beach & the other Normandy beaches, centred as it is in Bayeux. While not the closest to the Caen/Courseulles/Bernieres for Canadians, Bayeux is the most evocative location for Battlefield interpreters and ideally situated for Canadians to access the WWII cemetaries as well. If your intention is to visit the Canadian Juno Beach Centre in Courseulles, then begin& end your stay at the Churchill.
Furthermore, on our most recent tour (in November 2011) we had several health-related incidents and the Churchill staff could not have been more helpful - the hospital in Bayeux is only 1km away. My wife & I stay exclusively at the Churchill when we travel to Normandy and I continue to recommend it to any-everyone who wishes to visit the area. You will not be disappointed
