Guest Reviews

• Fabrice (4/5): - Quel genre d'hôtel vous vertit des horaires de sa réception plus d'un mois après la réservation - le jour de votre arrivée ? Quel hôtel délocalise son petit déjeuner ailleurs (la photo est celle d'un autre établissement, il n'y aucune salle dans l'Hôtel de France !!!) Enfin ça aurait pu passer avec un peu d'eau chaude...
• Jasmine (8/5): - Clean room, no kettle or iron in the room though. Clean bathroom. The hotel is in a great location and staff were friendly. Paid breakfast was available.
• Sophie (8/5): Bon sejour en famille. - Manque un peu de rénovations, en effet les chambre sont assez "vieillotte". Cepandant les chambres sont propres et salle de bain aussi. Il manquerai juste une petite table pour poser ses affaires. Les petits déjeuners sont copieux et il y du choix (sucrée/salées), par contre ils se prennent dans l'autre hotel.
• BEATRICE (10/5): génial - on a passer de bonne vacances a refaire
• Daniel (4/5): - The check in was actually at a different hotel across the road (and a much nicer one at that). My room was basic, though clean and the bed was comfortable. The problem was that the building was very old and had no soundproofing. I was on the 1st floor, so I could hear every noise (including all movement, etc.) from the upper room, which was very disturbing for my sleep. It also sounded structurally unsafe due to the creaky floorboards (even though it was probably fine
• Arlette (8/5): - Le séjour a été convenable c'est l'annexe d'un autre hôtel 3 étoiles il faudrait le préciser sur l annonce
• Beverley (10/5): Visiting Mont Saint-Michel - Great location for train connections and bus to Mont Saint-Michel. Great range of bars and restaurants with in easy walking distance?
• Martine (10/5): Revenir, - Qualité de l'accueil, adaptation à la situation, confort de la chambre
• Verified traveler (2/5): Non conforme à la description - Pas d’accueil il faut aller à un autre hôtel à 500m pas prévenu à l’avance c’est la surprise en arrivant pas de parking comme prévu à la réservation pas de wifi non plus alors que ces services sont payés chambre dans les combles avec un fort bruit de vmc qui vous empêche de dormir tache de sang sur le dessus de lit appliques cassés porte serviette qui tombe impossible d’y poser les serviettes et enfin au moment de la douche la porte en verre met tombé sur le pied de plus c’est pas la chambre réservée puisque la facture ne correspond pas au prix payé cette chambre est à 10€ de moins
• Richard (2/5): - DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. Arrived to find the building looking near derelict with paper stuck over the inside of the ground floor windows, no pavement outside the reception door (just mud), the reception door was locked but with a notice saying that reception was at a different hotel. This hotel was just around the corner but only found that out after putting the address into my sat nav. Went to this other hotel where they eventually confirmed our booking and told us our room was in the Hotel de France but parking and restaurant was at this hotel. We were given a key and a code to enter the building. After dragging our cases from one place to the other and through the mud, got into the building. The reception desk was there but the place was deserted and did not appear to have any staff present at all. The room had no heating and the hot tap and shower had to be run for a good 10 minutes before the water started to get warm. I appreciate that hotels usually fit a mattress protector to the beds but this one felt like it was made from a creased plastic sheet so sleeping on it was like sleeping on an uninflated air bad. The following morning was awoken by the sound of construction machinery and upon attempting to exit the building found workmen digging up the kerbstones and the remains of the mud outside the only exit door. This hotel should not be taking bookings while in this state and, with the complete lack of any staff on site, I suspect it may even be illegal.
• andrew (4/5): - Outside looked like an abandoned property Parking was in one place reception in another, When I arrived asked to see property to see if it really was a hotel. Inside was ok, no shower curtain still under a state of remodel. Wouldn’t recommend or stay here again
• jedrzej (10/5): - Staff was super kind, gave restaurant recommendations, room was clean and as expected.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Hotel de france was under renovation. We were given a room in Hotel Arina. Good size room for family, clean and spacious. There was no aircondition in the room. It was a very warm day. It was noisy when the window was open. There is a rail track runing next to the hotel. There was no walkin shower, but shower handle in the bath tub but with no atrached shower curtain to the bath tub. It is more of a traditional home style rather than a modern hotel.
• guillaume (6/5): - Hôtel différent pour le petit déjeuner surprenant !!!
• Gabriel (10/5): - convenable pour un court sejour en famille. 4 adultes et 1 enfant. Peu de places mais suffisante malgre tout. Une des pieces de la suite familiale ( Mezzanine) est mansardée . Les seules fenetres sont de de toit . Local avec décoration ancienne. Buffet petit dej suffisant. Localisation tout a fait interessante // mont st michel. Accueil tres sympathique .
• Mounir (6/5): - A l'arrivé pas de réception il faut aller a l'hôtel à coté de l'autre coté de la voie ferré wifi très faible voir inexistant Télévision fonctionne très mal ( TNT) bruyant pas d'ascenseur , pas compatible avec des personnes âgées ou handicapés. Parking de la gare est la seule offre gratuite.
• Michael (10/5): Great hotel in charming French town - We had an amazing time at this comfortable hotel. We traveled as family four, the space was clean and well maintained. We appreciated the two spacious bedrooms, and spacious living areas. We would stay here again, one block away were tons of restaurants and a grocery. The breakfast served at the hotel was delicious.
• Clara (10/5): - Extremely helpful staff.
• Kenneth (4/5): - Zum Glück haben wir nur für 1 Nacht auf der Durchreise gebucht. Die Einrichtung unseres 4-Bett Zimmers war alt und verbraucht/teilweise kaputt, dazu auch nicht sauber (z.B. Haare auf der Bettdecke). An den Wänden und im Badezimmer gab es Schimmel und einen sehr unangenehmen Geruch! Im Obergeschoss an den Betten der Kinder waren die Lese-Lampen mit Klebeband befestigt und die Stromkabel lagen offen. Positiv: das Personal ist nett und das Frühstück im benachbarten/zugehörigen Hotel Ariane war gut!
• giovanni (2/5): - Struttura in pessime condizioni,muffa ovunque, sulle pareti, sui letti...puzza nauseabonda proveniente dal bagno..lenzuola sporche e ammuffite.. ragni sul letto. Insomma la struttura è abbandonata a se stessa. Vi consiglio di starne lontano. Pessima.
• NICOLAS (4/5): - Nous sommes étonnés de tous les avis positifs publiés sur Hôtels.com. Cet hôtel est l'annexe d'un autre établissement et la décoration de l'hôtel s'est arrêtée dans les années 70. A conseiller uniquement pour les fans de Derrick. Chambre minuscule, moquette d'époque partout, pas d'accueil et porte d'entrée à code qui ne ferme pas. A 20 m de la voie ferrée (heureusement peu utilisée je pense).
• Carlo (4/5): - E' vero che costa poco, ma e' veramente scarsa!!!
• Juan Manuel (2/5): - Vi bare sovet, men det var barr eg som dusjet der pga det var svart veggene, våt toalett papir og det lukte veldig dårlig. Eg kunme ikkje hvile denne natt, men det er som det var. Første og siste gang der.😡😡😡
• Laiza (8/5): - The staff was accommodating to our needs.
• howard (10/5): - Actually stated in the hotek you check in with and it was great undercover parking forvuur motocycles
• Wajdi (8/5): - C'est excellent par rapport un hôtel 2 étoiles
• Jose (10/5): Séjour - Bien Juste manque de pression dans la douche
• Verified traveler (6/5): Nuisance sonore - Établissement situé à proximité de la voie ferrée et d'une rue passante donc nuisance sonore dû au passage des voitures sur la voie ferrée surtout en été lorsque l'on est obligé de garder la fenêtre ouverte Pas de chambre côté jardin
• Christoph (10/5): - Netter Empfang, ruhiges Zimmer, bequemes Bett, schönes Bad mit Wanne. Bahnhofsnah mit Bus nach Mont Sant Michele.
• Lassaad (10/5): - We had a very nice stay.
• Linda (6/5): - It was all about location for us. Unfortunately, the hotel is located right by the train tracks. It was okay for noise until about five in the morning. The biggest issue was the bathroom smelled horrible. Musty and moldy, we had to go out and buy air freshener and a candle to kill the smell.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - I booked for De France and and checked in in Ariana Hotel. I guessed they own both. Only thing is 1 min walk to Pontorson- Mont St michel train station
• BELLET (10/5): mont st michel - visite en baie du mont st michel excellent voyage romantique a refaire des que possible
• JOSIANE (4/5): - Les chambres ont besoin d'une bonne renovation. Pour ne citer que cela, l'état de la moquette laisse à désirer
• Roland (8/5): - We opted for this particular property for our overnight stay, which met our expectations. Our room spanned two floors, with the second floor featuring two beds, but just one bed would have given us more space, which would have been perfect for our needs. The convenience, cleanliness, and normal-equipped amenities made our stay enjoyable. We were particularly impressed with the friendly and helpful staff. The property's location was near various restaurants and charming neighbouring buildings. Additionally, it was only a swift 2-minute walk from the train station, and the 30-minute bus ride (3E20) to Mt. St Michel made it an ideal choice for travellers on a budget. Considering all these factors, the pricing was just right for our budget-conscious journey. We had a wonderful experience here and would highly recommend it to fellow travellers.
• Maud (10/5): - L'accueil et le service de l'hotelier était parfait
• Lucia (8/5): - Posizione comoda , vicino alla stazione e vicino all'autobus che porta a Mont Saint Michel ( non più di 200 metri). Il check-in si fa in un altro hotel quasi di fronte all'hotel de France.Sono stati molto gentili, siamo arrivati in anticipo e ci hanno permesso di lasciare i bagagli. La stanza era molto pulita, non c'è l'ascensore(può essere un problema per salire i bagagli). L'aspetto della struttura e della camera è migliore rispetto alle foto.
• Elena (8/5): Correcto. - Buen alojamiento relacion calidad precio. Cerca pata visitar el Monte Saint Michel.
• Fabio (4/5): Struttura molto datata - É una dependance dell’hotel Ariane. La struttura è veramente molto datata e sarebbe da ristrutturare, pulizia discreta, facilità di parcheggio.
• Eva (8/5): Bon rapport qualité prix - Bon rapport qualité prix / chambre sous les toits / petite et confortable .. cet hôtel est l annexe de l hôtel Ariane et n a pas de réception ..du coup on se sent un peu seul …mais aucun problème !
• Maria Del Rosario (10/5): Muy buen lugar - Muy buen lugar, limpio y agradable, a 2 min del tren y cerca de tiendas para comprar y comer
• Maggie (10/5): - Excellent location. Quaint hotel and excellent value for money.
• Alberto (6/5): - Oldish hotel with no frills. Reception not on site but at a nearby hotel.
• Shukdeb (6/5): - Location is safe and close to the railway station. The owner is a nice person. One problem I encounter during my stay at this hotel was no hot water for shower. Please fix this problem. Thanks
• Jean (8/5): - Séjour convenable. La proximité de la gare est pour nous un plus, du fait que nous voyageons en train. Les petits déjeuners sont très corrects.
• Camryn (8/5): - Location is great because it is by the train. No shower curtain so get water everywhere and my clothes got wet
• Verified traveler (10/5): Remarque sans trop importance - Excellent séjour, l ensemble très bien, sauf il se trouve à côté le chemin de fer avec le bruit de voitures qui passent.
• James (10/5): - Great place to stay for Mont St Michel visit. Fridge would have been nice but quiet and comfortable.
• colin (8/5): - helpful staff; this hotel is adjacent to hotel ariane, and same staff run both, so i was actually put in a bigger room in hotel ariane (upgrade)
• Paul (10/5): Excellent Location and very nice rooms - Although we booked the Hotel De France, the Hotel owner asked us to stay at the Hotel Ariane just around the corner which seemed a better prospect at the same price. The bath was small but the room was very cosy and very nice. We had an excellent stay and the Hotel is in an excellent location for the Mont St Michel and the village facilities. We thought that the Continental breakfast was expensive but otherwise a very good place to stay.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - There was no AC - but it is understandable since it gets cold during the night. However, I had to leave the window open but it was quite noisy. There was a huge spider in the room, and I killed it myself but it was a bit traumatic since it was founded on my pillow. The service was nice.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - location is good and very closed to train station, where the bus to saint michel waiting/stop. a short walk to main street to find restaurants/stores. room is small and basic but clean. check it/out at other hotel but very close and staffs are helpful
• Verified traveler (8/5): - A little concerning when it looks run down from the outside and no lights on . The note on the door with where to go and the friendly guy that set us up was great
• Verified traveler (6/5): convenient location - convenient location to railway station, room itself is reasonable but had very loud noises through the ceiling when people moved around upstairs, which went late into the night and disturbed my sleep!
• Jill (6/5): - Very convenient to the train station. The trains run very seldom ( none overnight) so no noise). The walls must be very thin in the hotel as you can hear everything from all netghbouring rooms and the hallway. Lack of privacy because others can hear you too. There is no reception desk at all at the hotel (no staff on site). You have to go to the nearby Hotel Adriane to check in or for any needs.
• Jennifer (8/5): Nice, small room in quiet town near Mont St Michel - Nice little place in Pontorson. Super easy to get to Mont St Michel by bus 2 blocks from the hotel (at the train station - 2.60 Euro/Person each way). The reception staff is extremely kind, allowing us to leave bags early and late. The room is small, but we had a lovely roof window. In many ways, you get what you pay for. This is an inexpensive room, so there should be no surprise that it is small (European standard), and that the hotel is a little older and showing some wear. Things were clean and appointed as advertised.
