A great couple of days

Excellent location. Beautiful town with numerous shops, bars and restaurants. Hotel is beautifully decorated and is swell preserved piece of history. Breakfast was an issue though…. Served from 7am to 10am, yet when we arrived for breakfast at 8:50 all the hot food was finished. This matter was resolved with a refund but was very disappointing.

The bedroom was comfortable, the bed faced the french windows which opened up to a view of the ramparts and the sea. The bed was very comfortable and there was an ensuite. Hotel located centrally in the heart of one of the main squares, convient for shops, accessing the ranparts and the port. It has a wonderful restaurant attached.

Un très bel endroit avec beaucoup de charme

Déco des espaces communs, salles de restaurant et chambre très appréciées. Un site historique bien modernisé. Emplacement de l’hotel parfait. Petit bemol sur la viennoiserie et le pain du petit déjeuner, bon mais il y a mieux. Serveur de la brasserie pour dîner, très courtois et sympathique. Merci à lui. A défaut de vue mer, Chambre sur ville parfaite: vue sur château exceptionnelle. On reviendra

We stayed at the hotel during Bastille Day. The location was absolutely perfect — right in the heart of it all. We enjoyed wonderful live entertainment in the restaurant downstairs, delicious food and drinks, and then strolled along the ocean walk to watch the spectacular fireworks display celebrating France’s national day. An unforgettable experience. Our room had a lovely view of the beach and a small fortress out in the sea. The room itself was in great condition with a very comfortable bed. The staff were both friendly and accommodating. On top of that, the hotel interior was stylish — above average, for sure. Highly recommended! Note: If you’re arriving by car, be aware that the streets are narrow, it can be crowded, and parking is limited. However, there’s an underground parking facility just nearby.

A let down

Amazing location but that’s about it. St Malo is a lovely place, highly recommended. But choose a different hotel. We arrived at check in time but our room was not ready. We were told someone would bring us our keys in 15 minutes and asked to wait. The sofa we waited on was very broken. After 20 minutes no one had come over to us, so I rejoined the check in queue. We were “upgraded” to a junior suite. The room was very stuffy, the carpet and walls stained. The bed was 2 singles out together but with a very hard big lump between the 2 mattresses. There was a thermostat and air con unit on the wall but when turning this on it came up with an error message. I went to reception to tell them and ask if they could fix it, but the answer was that the room we have does not have air con. I was able to get a small desk fan from them thankfully. The shower is over the middle of the bath at waist height, so not over head without holding it yourself. Furniture also stained & old. Rooms in much need of an upgrade. For £250 on our wedding anniversary it was quite disappointing for the hotel.
