Chez Laurence du Tilly: Guest apartments in Caen

In Normandy, Chez Laurence du Tilly is a new concept of guest apartments tucked into a private mansion.

There’s no place like home

In the heart of Caen’s city centre, Chez Laurence du Tilly is an upscale accommodation with a hybrid concept subtly blending together hotel services, a guest house, and the independence of a furnished apartment.

Laurence du Tilly, the place’s owner is an Art de Vivre enthusiast and designer. She has transformed and converted this 18th-century mansion into a one-of-a-kind place where the idea is to feel at home, with particular emphasis on the decoration.

The mansion houses 3 distinctively styled guest apartments, each occupying a floor and connected by a stone staircase. The first two have a kitchen, a living room with a sofa bed, a fireplace, a dining area, and a bathroom with an Italian shower. On the 1st floor, “Le classique” has Haussmann-style accents with wood panelling and herringbone flooring. On the 2nd floor, “Le contemporain” has a more modern style with indirect lighting and hardwood flooring. As for the 3rd floor, “L’atypique”, located in the attic with its exposed wooden beams, is designed as a loft to have a furnished patio and a bathtub in the bedroom. Each and every room has its own timeless, personalized decor, mixing antiques with creations by famous names in design.

The ground floor hosts a common area with a cosy living room, library, fireplace, and an honesty bar. In the basement, a vaulted cellar has been converted into an extraordinary space for private events. Several tailor-made services are available; fresh bread deliveries in the morning, full breakfast, trays to taste, Italian dishes to put in the oven, bottles from the cellar, fireplace kits, picnic baskets, massages, and yoga classes.

Chez Laurence du Tilly offers you a break, an experience, and of course a moment to yourself.
