Honfleur escaped the bombings of the 2nd worldwar and thanks to that the village looks still as a real port city from the 17th century. The old "bassin" with next to it historical buildings of the former mayors' residence. It still looks like a painting, certainly in this period of the year with no tourists. The view on the village is beautiful entering from the Pont de l'Atlantique, but don't look to the other side as the view will be "destroyed" by the giant oil tanks of Le Havre port.
Finding the hotel is quite difficult, when following the corniche towards Deauville, but at the end we found it covered by the trees in the garden. I will be back here in May as the view of the apple blossoms during that period is overwhelming.
