Great location
Small hotel located close to the ramparts and easy access to the beaches and promenade.
Also close to old town centre for restaurants and bars.
A little tied, but clean.
Air conditioning not working during our stay but allegedly being upgraded.
Would stay here again .

It’s a great location within the walls. The rooms are a good size and well eqipped, the staff very friendly (and speak some English), the parking is limited but there is a car park next door and it isn’t too pricey, and there are many great restaurants and shops nearby. The walls surround you.

Lovely stay in St Malo. Hotel well located but relatively quiet. A couple of issues concerning noise outside late at night - bottles being dumped in the bin (against the law at that hour) and loud chatting by those dumping the bottles. Not the hotel’s fault bur needs to be kept in mind when choosing a room with a sea view.

We loved this hotel intramuros. Easy walking throughout the old city.
Driving through the narrow streets could be a little bit of a challenge, as well as finding a place to park, but this is no fault of the hotel. The breakfast buffet was fabulous.
We LOVED our stay.

Great place, with some noise.
Great place to stay to visit the old town of St Malo. The main inconvenient is that there is a glass recycling container located nearby and people in the neighborhood come to dump their bottles day and night, making noise.

Short break
We were upgraded to a larger room as I am currently in a wheelchair. It was large airy and very comfortable with modern furnishings. The hotel was ideally placed for exploring. We managed to park right outside (although parking is very very expensive). We really enjoyed our time here
