11 of us stayed here for 6 nights from the 1st of July including children. When we arrived we went outside to the pool area for lunch. The childrens burgers were 24 euros each and inedible.We didnt sit at the pool because the beds were 20 euros each to rent.There were only 3 people sitting out. One night we ordered... more

The Royal Barriere is from a bygone era, and while it was fun to visit, I would have preferred it to have lived up to what it might have been in the past. We got a good rate through a reseller, about half again as much as we would have paid at the Mercure. We had a beautiful view from... more

This was a rally nice hotel. We were spending 2 nights in the Normandy region and I had to find a town and a hotel that would be suitable for our trip. After much research I decided upon the Royal Barriere and was not disappointed. The rooms were large and quaint at the same time. It felt clean but was... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for five nights in September of 2007 as part of a business retreat. We stayed in an ocean-front room that was gorgeous. The doors opened to an ocean breeze and could be open the entire week. The weather was gorgeous that time of year, with only sun and warm temperatures. The staff... more

Some of these other reviews on the royal barriere make me wonder whether there is another Royal in Deauville because the one i stayed in has to be by far the worst luxury hotel i have ever stayed in. Where do i start , the decor is stuck in the 20th century it is screaming out for a massive renovation,... more

We got a great deal through Expedia (three nights for the price of two) and loved it! Not a full sea-front view - but a "side-view" which in fact gave an excellent view of the sea, beach, coast line (for miles) and the hills behind. Excellent service - from arrival to departure. Eating and drinking in the hotel is expensive,... more

We stayed here for 4 nights in late August 2007. The hotel is well sitauted within a few minutes of the beach and a short walk to the main shopping and dining streets. Its also only 15 minutes to the racecourse which has regular meetings during August at least. Staff are friendly and helpful and generally speak good English. The... more

If you haven't been to Deauville before it's worth bearing in mind that this is where wealthy Parisians like to spend a long weekend and that is the town's (and all its hotels') core business. If you don't like that sort of thing try somewhere else. The main advantages are some fantastic bistros and places to eat plus designer shopping.... more

My wife and I stayed here overlooking the outdoor swimming pool for one night only. Was not our first choice of hotel but as it was a Saturday night most other hotels were full. Greeted by a very friendly receptionist who took us up to our room which was nothing special, despite the price, although the bed was huge. Bathroom... more
