Très bon séjour de 2 semaines !

J'ai été très bien accueilli et ai passé un excellent séjour. La chambre est très spacieuse, avec un coin canapé et table de salon, un bureau, un frigidaire. Je m'y suis toujours bien senti. La climatisation a permis de passer très confortablement les jours de canicule. Les patrons sont très bienvenants. Le petit-déjeuner était copieux et amplement suffisant. L'hôtel se trouve à 300 m environ de la plage. En 10 minutes on est à la plage. A vélo en même pas 2 minutes. Je précise que je n'ai aucun lien de parenté avec qui que ce soit de l'hôtel. Je connais l'Hotel de la Mer depuis plus de 40 ans. 😊 A recommander.

Agréable séjour à l'Hôtel de le Mer

J'étais réticente après avoir lu certains avis. Mais j'ai été agréablement surprise : rien à redire aussi bien accueil que prestation. Tout était parfait. N'étant restée que 2 nuits, je n'ai pas eu le temps de profiter de la piscine qui est un plus. Etant en famille séjournant au camping juste en face, la situation de l'hôtel était un avantage. Je reviendrai volontiers !!!

Déçu par cet hôtel ! Il a été refait parait-il en 2021 mais depuis il n'y pas eu beaucoup d'entretien intérieur et extérieur. De plus bruit de la ventilation de la Salle de douche qui résonne en bruit de casserole dans la chambre, lit très très moyen, il y aurait tellement à dire ... Dommage !

Hôtel très moyen

hôtel situé à côté de la fête foraine et d'un bar bruyant. Le petit déjeuner prix excessif vu la qualité de la prestation, en prime avec le son d'une radio commerciale dans les oreilles. la réception n'est pas au top de l’accueil et de l'écoute. Le wc dans la chambre est très très exigu.Pas d'ascenseur pour personne handicapé ou vieillissante.
