Très bien
Pros:

L’emplacement, le cadre

Cons:

Rien mais pour Saint Malo , l’organisation lors du festival un enfer pour venir de la gare et repartir. . Aucun taxi , tous les numéros indiqués refusaient de venir. L’hôtel doit organiser service de navette.

Ein ganz besonderes Hotel mit viel Charme!
Pros:

Wow, was für ein tolles Hotel! Man fühlt sich sofort sehr wohl, weil die Ausstattung und das Flair dieses Hotels den Urlaub richtig rund machen! Wir haben leider nur eine Nacht dort verbracht, kommen aber auf alle Fälle für länger wieder! Wer ein besonderes Hotel sucht, sollte unbedingt hier übernachten! Blick aufs Meer, Stadtmauer und Riesenrad und dazu ein helles, sauberes, modernes Zimmer mit großem bequemen Bett! Was will man mehr!

The hotel is a personal favourite of mine, built up over many years..
Pros:

Its position is perfect, within the Intra Muros of St Malo, and the historic centre. Elegant buildings, easy walking distance to smart shops, ramparts and gates, cathedral, and many bars, cafés and restaurants, a wide choice of superb fresh seafood and top quality French cuisine, but also good value alternatives. Well placed for easy access to international ferry terminals and Brittany Ferries link to Portsmouth. Reception staff at the hotel are professional, helpful and friendly whether in French or English.

Cons:

Nothing!

Nothing wrong with this lovely old hotel that some modernisation couldn’t put right.
Pros:

Staff great. Location great. Beds very comfortable and room spacious.

Cons:

We booked this hotel as it advertised parking but on arrival were told no spaces available . High cost of parking nearby. No air conditioning in hotel. Given room at front so had to open windows- extremely noisy in square below until early hours and many flies got in room. Low level hand held shower which flooded bathroom and prehistoric hairdryer.

Super Lage
Pros:

Die Lage, Zimmer und das Restaurant Brauerei im Haus.

Cons:

Bessere Hinweise, das man zum parkieren vors Hotel fahren soll, ganz rechte Einfahrt beim Kreisel mit Signalisierung verbotene Einfahrt, Ausnahme mit Bewilligung. Beim Check-In bekommt man eine Parkkarte für das 200m entfernte Parkhaus, wenn man einen Parkplatz reserviert hat. Bei uns war es 18 Euro pro Nacht.
Ohne Hotelparkkarte kosten 24 Std. im Parkhaus über 40 Euro.
Bevor wir diese Karte bekamen, parkten wir zwangsläufig in der Tiefgarage vor dem Einchecken. Danach ein Spiesrutenlauf um unser Parkticket zu annullieren. Hat nicht geklappt, dann mussten wir aus dem Parking fahren, selbst bezahlen und dann mit der Hotelparkkarte wieder ins Parking. Hoffe, diese Angaben, ersparen Anderen Gästen unsere Unannehmlichkeiten. Uns wurde via E-Mail nur mitgeteilt, dass wir einen Zugang zum Parking bekommen werden aber nicht erklärt, wie das abläuft.
