Location is very nice, close to the casino. I am sure it was very nice once it was new (still it is not bad), now, it needs some refurbishment. Service is nice, breakfast is excellent.
Bed is extremely comfortable and curtain is good enough to make completely dark for the night. Room was silent, it is very positive.
All in all it a romantic place.

This weekend at the Normandy was a birthday present and we had an excellent time.
We came with our 3months old baby and we had everything sorted and ready for her.
Top service, extremely friendly and professional staff!
Check the wine list, amazing choice of Champagnes!

We had a brilliant long weekend having driven from the UK and despite the fact that it rained for almost 72 hours. It was a French Bank Holiday but still we managed to get an up grade to a double under the eaves and overlooking the tennis courts and wide sandy beach beyond. Not a large room and perhaps a little dated but immaculate and wonderfully comforable. It is a big hotel so if you want boutique/designer then perhaps not for you though I still think you would find charm in this quintessentially Victorian seaside hotel.

You can imaging generations of families decamping here from Paris and certainly there were some immaculately couiffered,coiffered lacoste wearing guests in residence. The hotel has a lovely rather 50 ish beach front brasserie which even in the rain had plenty of appeal. Parking was no trouble and the entrance on the back shares a garden square with an array of smart french boutiques leading on to streets of cafe's, brasseries and interior design boutiques.

The casino is pretty shabby and probably nothing like its former self. We missed the racing which has a big pull in these parts.

A few bonus points for Deauville is that you can stopped in Hon Fleur for lunch on the way down from the Eurotunnel and on the Sunday after checking out we heading for another outstanding lunch along side the market in Trouville (linked to Deauville)- think it was called Le Central. Here we sat under the awning, whilst it continued to rain, shoulder to shoulder with well heeled friend friends gossiping and enjoying layers of Fruits de Mer and wine. Excellent.

Le Normandy Barriere Hotel in Deauville
French arrogance at his best. Payed for a superior class room with a view of the pool, it was ground floor with view of the street, where is the pool? well we don't have any.
Came home to sleep at 11:30 pm our room door was locked No one could open it after several attempts they had to force it open, then they gave us a room that was not renovated in the old part of the hotel and no longer a connedting room with our friends, that we came to spend time with.. We were so upset, that our French friends told us we should have stayed at a cheaper hotel and have better service. By 1 pm we were able to settle in another room next to our friends after us ranting and raving. No it is not worth the 300 euro a night, beautiful hotel but very bad management.......
