Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is great for exploring the beautiful southern area of Bretagne, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. However, the room I stayed in had some issues, like a broken toilet flush and a high-up hairdryer. Additionally, the dining options could use some improvement.
The hotel had a great location near the river and was just a short walk from the beach, which I loved. The room had a lovely view of the estuary and a really comfortable large bed that made my stay quite pleasant. However, the service was outstanding, and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. On the downside, the dining options could be improved, as the breakfast selection was somewhat limited and the prices for snacks were a bit steep.
I had a comfortable stay at this hotel, with a spacious room featuring a King-sized bed. The location is great, right by the river and close to the beach, making it convenient for exploring the area. However, the room felt a bit outdated, and the dining options were not up to par, lacking fresh bread choices. The friendly staff certainly made up for some of these drawbacks, and overall, it's a decent value for the price.

The rooms were pretty spacious with a nice view of the harbour, but they could definitely use some fresh paint to liven things up. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, which really made a difference. On the downside, dining could be improved with more variety, and I found the prices a bit steep, especially for breakfast.

The dining options, while good, could use a little more variety at breakfast and the prices were a bit steep. Overall, it's in a great spot but could really improve in certain areas.

I had a nice stay at this hotel, which has friendly staff and it’s perfectly located near the water. However, the room was a bit cramped, and the dining prices were quite high for what was offered. Overall, it was a good value for money in some areas, but there’s room for improvement.
