We had a room with a balcony facing the water and it did it all! Lovely to doze with the doors open and hear the waves crashing.
The city is cozy, although not huge. The beach is long and beautiful. As we had slightly worse weather, it was also wonderfully deserted.

Upon arrival at the hotel we were told that Expedia was trying to reach us however we did not receive an email or voicemail. The hotel said they were calling because the large room with a balcony that we reserved had an issue with the plumbing and they could not put us in this room and needed to downgrade us to a smaller room without a balcony. We had no choice in the matter. I found it strange that Expedia was trying to call us when it was an hotel issue. The hotel said they would give us a free breakfast for the inconvenience but that I had to call Expedia to get a credit on the downsizing. When back in the states, I emailed Expedia asking for a credit for the difference in the rooms, which is what I was instructed to do by the hotel, but Expedia explained they cannot do this, rather their process is to contact the hotel and see if the hotel would be willing to give us a credit. After some back-and-forth and waiting a couple days, the outcome per Expedia was that the hotel denied any credit to us. So basically the hotel lied to us and blew us off by telling us to deal with the fact that we paid for an expensive room but didn’t get it after we had already left the country. Pretty low of them to do.

The staff at this hotel are amazing. I had an incident during my visit to Etretat and the desk team went above and beyond to help me through it. I want to thank them for all of their help and kindness. Everyone was so kind and helpful. The property is perfectly located on the ocean front. We ate at the restaurant several times and the food was fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel while visiting the area.

Friendly and quick check in, comfy bed, nice upgrade to sea view as we visited in off season. Appreciated the jetted tub and robes. Room was cozy and warm. The bar is a bit expensive but I guess it comes with the location.

Étretat is a pleasant seaside resort with pebble beach and stunning white cliffs
The hotel is right on the front but you pay premium prices for this convenience.in my opinion there are better value hotels just behind the sea front. Even the up market Dormy House Hotel has cheaper rooms than Rayon Vert. Our room, 27 was approached by steep spiral staircases to the second floor overlooking the town. - no lift. Very basic but acceptable small room
No lounge space and a very modest breakfast at €14 - better value in town.
Parking is available close by but difficult to find at busy times(as with most seaside resorts) particularly weekends.
Some good restaurants close by. We like Le Galion

Unfortunately we picked a very busy weekend and traffic was blocked off to the hotel. We luckily had a local assist us to get into the village. Once there the check in was smooth and we had a room on the top floor. No elevator so it was an interesting trek up the spiral staircase. The reward was the view. The room was good and the bathroom looked recently renovated. Overall it was good, car parking is in the street though.

I booked this hotel online and paid in full at the time of booking. Shortly thereafter, I was informed by a call from the hotel staff that this hotel was closed but that they (the staff person) would simply transfer my booking to a room at a nearby, comparable hotel. No big deal. Except the online price for the hotel in which I was redirected to stay in (and did stay in) was actually cheaper than this one. And I was not refunded the excess money I paid to the Hotel Le Rayon Vert.

Cosy little hotel, right on the sea front. Fabulous sea view from our bedroom, plus a small balcony which we sat out on even though the weather was terrible. Decent bathroom with rather impressive bubble making device too. The hotel was 2 minutes walk from the bus stop and easy to find. It’s situated right by the beach and a couple of minutes from the famous cliffs on each side. Near a load of great cafes and restaurants. Most of all, the service was excellent. Couldn’t recommend it more!

The view and location were great. The hotel was old and worn. Not terribly clean and bathroom door would not close due to broken door handle

You could walk out the front door and be on the beach. The beach itself was pebbles, but the white cliffs on either side were gorgeous. And the walkway along the beach was lovely for a stroll.
Our room had an awesome Jacuzzi bathtub. No shower unfortunately, but the tub was so fun that it didn't matter.

Great hotel looking out on the sea. Lovely clean room with sea view and modern furniture.
8.0
Location is lovely and easy to park and get around city. Hotel is old and has a lot of wear and tear but the staff is friendly and helpful . No elevator and very narrow, old steps to get up to room which can be difficult with luggage that we did not want to leave in the car after we parked.
8.0
This hotel has lots of charme. It is located in a quiet and nice neighborhood, directly at the beach and in the middle of the amazing natural coastline of Normandie. You can explore either the beautiful town of Etretat or go for endless walks along this wild and stunning coastline. Either way, you will love this facility.
Only drawbacks: be prepared to climb stairs as there is no elevator in the hotel as well as to pay an additional € 8 daily for parking fees. You have to park in public facilities which can be away from 1 minute up to 15 minutes of the hotel - depending on availability.

We stayed in the amazing town of Etretat. The hotel was directly on the beach and our hotel room was simply beatiful. The bed was fantastic. Our balcony opened up with a view on the ocean and amazing view of the white cliffs of Etretat
5.0
The location is fantastic. This is probably the reason why it is so difficult to find a parking lot. Our room was small but with a nice bathroom. What surprises me in French hotels is a bathtub instead of the shower... You can get good coffee nearby in Auberge Express but be prepared to pay 5 Euro per a cup of coffee. The only flip side was bouncy bed and noisy street.
2.0
Helpful staff, great location next to Esplanade and beach. Classic quaint guest rooms- beware, the cheapest rooms are on the highest floor, overlooking the village- so the more you pay, the less climbing you will need to do with your luggage (no lift).

Great location and views from our bacony! My only recommendation would be a shower curtain in the bathtub. If you took a bath in the jacuzzi was fine but it was a mess to take a regular shower. It also needed a brighter light for in the room.

The only item I was concerned about was the jacuzzi tub has a cleaning cycle that was rather loud.... outside that ... awesome place

The hotel is just across the street from the beach. The staff were very welcoming and spoke English. We enjoyed watching other tourists, especially the crazy ones who stripped down to enjoy the sun when it came out! The town is very interesting, with some buildings of medieval style, and storyboards describe historical events in some buildings. it was a lovely town to visit, and the hotel was as expected. Most rooms face the sea.
5.0
Very happy with our stay. Etretat is an absolute gem. No wonder Monet loved to paint here. The hotel staff couldn't have been more helpful and the breakfast arrangements and food very nice. Great location for coastal walks, swimming and waterfronts. Recommend visit to Benedictine distillery in Fecamp.

This is a charming old hotel right on the water front in the fabulous sea side village of Etretat.This makes it both good and bad.We were in a room on the first floor facing the town. We had to have the windows open as it was so hot. The room is very small. With the windows open there is much noise from the streets below as well as roosting seagulls which charming and romantic at first becomes quite tiresome as it goes on ALL night.The staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was great.

Checked in late after watching sunset on the cliffs surrounding the town - perfect seaside location. Offsite parking was close once secured in a busy lot. Lots of great restaurants close by for a nice dinner. All hotel staff were friendly and accommodating. The guest room was clean , comfortable bed with quality linens and pillows, WIFI worked, lots of hot water for the morning shower in an immaculate bathroom. A little warm at night but opened windows for fresh air...nice! Breakfast was of good quality ( breads, fresh juice, coffee) - suggest offering a healthier selection alternative i.e. fruit,yogurt...to be more contemporary. While the hotel had an expected rustic feel, I even liked the string light "chandelier" - I felt the old furniture & cot in the public areas took away from the charm and made it all feel a bit trashy...overall though a very nice experience.
