Don’t hesitate to stay on the Mont! Really special experience.
Pros:

The location was amazing, what an experience before and after the crowds! Breakfast was fabulous.

Cons:

There was no aircon but there was a fan. No fly screens but it wasn’t a major issue as the weather was perfect.

Ein unglaublich bewegender Ort, charmantes, sauberes Hotel, gutes Frühstück, freundliches Personal
Pros:

Das Hotel l'Érmitage liegt idyllisch in einer ruhigen Gasse. Unser Zimmer bot einen erhebenden Blick auf die Abtei. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und gepflegt. Das gute Frühstück wurde in der l'Auberge la Mère Poulard serviert. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das überaus freundliche Personal.

Mont saint michel indimenticabile.
Pros:

Posizione perfetta .
L' albergo ha mantenuto i connotati di una suggestiva locanda che ben si coniuga con il luogo.

Cons:

Inammissibile per il prezzo pagato avere il materasso con "la buca" e la ventola del bagno rumorosa che non si spegne per tutta la notte.

Lovely location, so glad we came.
Pros:

The staff was excellent and kind, the location was great, and the peace and quiet was lovely after the crowds of the days. The garden view was also very nice. The included breakfast buffet was also great. We were warned about the stairs so that wasn’t a problem.

Cons:

It seems a cat may have gotten into the room or someone brought a pet and left it in the bathroom before we arrived and the smell from its — er — markings was very bad. We kept the door shut and the staff was very sympathetic and promised to see to it after we left.

Zimmer war schlecht, dafür war der Klosterberg perfekt.
Pros:

Lage /Ausicht war perfekt. Frühstück war gut.
.

Cons:

Ausstattung und Sauberkeit!!
das Zimmer war das Geld nicht wert. Bad nicht sauber, Tür löste sich unten schon auf, Waschbecken, Fliesen, Fugen, Heizkörper deckig. Musste den Föhn / Griff sauber machen, klebrig und schmutzig. Haben uns nicht wohl gefühlt im Zimmer. Der Preis steht nicht im Verhältnis zur Ausstattung.
Das Haus sollte mal stilvoll renoviert werden. Teppichboden ist da auch keine gute Lösung bei dem Durchsatz an Übernachtungen, im Schnitt wird das Zimmer nur für 2 Nächte gebucht. (gezahlt haben wir 700 Euro )

Pros:

Dormir dans un lieu pittoresque sur le mont le soir d’une grande marée
Petit déjeuner copieux
Gentillesse du personnel

Cons:

Le bruit le matin des sèches cheveux de locataires peu respectueux du sommeil des autres et leurs discussions dans le couloir comme si il étaient sur un marché...

Pros:

The location was excellent.

Cons:

Very little advice about the 104 steps to the front door of our accommodation and the 57 steps up to our room. Advance notice about the easier alternative 23 steps would have been nice.

Peaceful but quirky chateau
Pros:

Beautiful old world charm with a touch of luxury. The dinners were extremely good value. Very peaceful location. Nicely appointed room, but banged my head 3 times on the staircase to upper level.

Cons:

Maintenance and care of the landscaping . The wifi was virtually useless.
