Normandy
You keep expecting Hercule Poirot to pop his mustachioed face around the corner of this charmingly old-world hotel. The simply finished rooms are accentuated by warm, pale and soft colours, with laminate floors; considering one without a sea view is a 'non'. The onsite restaurant specialises in hearty regional cuisine.
The hotels' weekday Formule de la Mer is €199, getting you a sea-view room, two glasses of champagne, a seafood meal for two and a brace of breakfasts.
