It's worth staying here for the restaurant alone- traditional, elegant and v civilised! An intimate setting with flawless yet friendly service. Fab wine list too- not overpriced.

Over Easter, thanks to a recommendation by our hotel (La Ramade), we ended up having dinner at La Croix d'Or to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We were totally blown away by how nice this restaurant was - great food, welcoming setting and impeccable service. Thanks for a most memorable night out.

Our tour guide, Mathias from DDay Guided Tours (highly recommend him!) brought us to La Croix d'Or after we told him we wanted a traditional French meal -- this was after spending what seemed like 24 hours getting from Ohio to Normandy -- before heading to Mont St. Michel.
