Works
After all these years we wanted change and novelties.
Our project started during the first confinement, the idea was to recreate a more modern and sober storefront.
Several ideas were proposed to us, but a choice had to be made. After long reflections, our choice is made and the adventure can begin.
The second confinement slowed down our project, but we were able to start the work.
In mid-May, we began the adventure by dismantling the canopies of the entire façade. Rather complicated, to go to the 4th floor. We used a nacelle to be able to dismantle everything.
Our project continued with the dismantling of the front door. Which has given way to an electric door for more comfort and to facilitate your arrival with your suitcases.
After all this dismantling, there was a need for new things. After validation with the city of Caen, a new, more modern and sober sign was installed.
This project was important to us, to create a facade in our image.
It's up to you to come and discover all its novelties, which we hope you will like.

Holidays in Normandy

we all have needs and desires to go out, to leave, to escape. And you, where do you want to go? You don't have an idea yet?
An idea for an outing and holiday desires after all that.
Caen is the perfect place to mix history with William the Conqueror and its castle and its abbeys, the memorial which is the peace museum, the landing beaches and its memories.
Its gastronomy with its great starred restaurants but also shopping with its national brands but also some streets with small craft shops.
By going 10 minutes from Caen, you can enjoy our beautiful beaches such as Cabourg, but also the gardens, such as the botanical garden of Bayeux, the bird hill park in Caen.
Without forgetting a moment of relaxation with the Festyland amusement park, but also the Z'enfants island for the little ones.
