Villa Lara Hotel
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book it if you want the top-rated hotel in Bayeux, a 5-star address 3 minutes from the cathedral with gated parking, and the price is not a problem. If you just need a clean, central bed, our Best Value pick costs less than half as much.

Villa Lara Hotel is our Luxury pick for Bayeux. It suits couples on a special trip, drivers who want secure parking in the centre, and families, as family rooms are listed. It also tags itself as pet friendly.
It is not for tight budgets. At more than twice the price of our Best Value pick, you pay mainly for the 5-star standard, the score and the location. Guests who care a lot about breakfast should note the comments on variety and noise.
Location and getting around
The address is 6, Place du Québec, and the location score is a perfect 10. Guests describe a central spot near the cathedral, with gated parking.
Walking times are straight-line estimates. Bayeux Cathedral is 0.2 km away, about 3 minutes. Mondaye Abbey is 7.7 km away, around 96 minutes on foot, which is far, so plan on a car, public transport or a taxi for that one.
What guests say
The score is 9.5 out of 10 from 160 reviews. That is a very high score, though from a modest number of reviews.
Guests praise a professional team that gives helpful recommendations and attentive service. The location near the cathedral and the gated parking are the other repeated positives.
Breakfast draws the main criticism. Options are fresh, but some guests mention limited variety and noise in the dining area.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
The reference price was €328.40 per night, seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov) for 2 adults in one room, about €656.80 in total. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, Ibis Budget Bayeux, was €54.45 per night with an 8.1 score and 2 stars. Our Best Value pick, Churchill Hotel Bayeux Centre, was €140.70 per night with an 8.7 score and 3 stars. Villa Lara costs far more than either, and the reward is the highest guest score and location score of the three.
Listed facilities include free parking, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, family rooms, a garden and a terrace. Breakfast styles listed are vegetarian, gluten-free and buffet. Whether breakfast is included in your rate is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
