Really good
For a 3* hotel it was really good. Right on the sea front and brilliant views from the room. Very good restaurant but expensive in comparison to others which are very close. Fabulous beach and oyster market where the oysters were as cheap as chips. Would definitely stay there again. Park in the port carport and go to the office and pay 8 euros a day instead of 1.5 euros an hour. Parking free from 10pm to 10am.

A great place to stay in cancale
Breakfast buffet in this as in several other hotels have electric water boilers so you can boil the delicious eggs. Also crepes and a microwave to heat them as well as far Breton. The location is perfect a few steps from the oyster market and many excellent restaurants.

Very nice hotel, comfortable room, friendly staff, lovely port of Cancale. We also decided to have a meal in the hotel restaurant: food was great and waitress (Marine) particularly friendly and efficient. Great evening/night altogether.

Hotel with a View
I love the setting of this hotel. I requested a sea view and i got this room with 2 mini balcony that opens to the ocean on the left and the main street view of the restaurant scene. I loved that i can enjoy the sunset on my mini balcony. I loved that the oyster markets on the docks are close by and parking is free. I loved the walks up the hill to the city of Cancale. We also ate at the hotels restaurant. The seafood is amazing, fresh, delicious and the staff are very helpful, speaks and understand english. I would stay at this place again. Is a must if you vist in Cancale! Thank tou for making our stay wonderful!

Oyster heaven
Watch the tide roll in and out with a fresh breeze from your hotel window. Walk around the corner to dine on oysters right from the sea at the local market. Warm up in a hot shower built for two. During oyster season, the fun and options are limitless from this perfectly positioned hotel...

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We had one of the most expensive rooms as that was all that was available when we booked online but we had a great view overlooking the sea and the sea front. The room was fine and we also had a little bony to sit on. There was ample parking in Cancale but it's only free overnight so if you want to do a bit of exploring that needs to be taken into account. Would stay here again.

Nice Hotel
I wish they included breakfast since they have the restaurant, but the hotel was very clean and the location is great. Parking is also fine as there is free street parking or very inexpensive gated parking (free from 8 PM to 11 AM).

Very nice lodging with an excellent restaurant. Great location for exploring Brittany & Normandy. Price is reasonable and the room is comfortable. And it's in the heart of France's oyster country,

Location, location, location
The view over the tidal flats and the walking distance of everything in Cancale, town and port, elevate an ordinary hotel to the excellent rating. We did not have a chance to try the restaurant (having already made plans for two other restos in town which were excellent, but it looked great as well.

Great place - I may stay again!
A little rainier than I expected, but afternoon sun was great at this hotel...stayed in a family room (with loft) and was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the hotel, the great surrounding area, the courteous staff, and great food! Highly recommend! Wifi only worked for me in the stairwell of the first floor, but other than that no problems.

Petit we en amoureux pour découvrir Cancale et profitez de la vue sur mer; Nous avions pris l'option balcon malheureusement le temps ne se prêtait pas à son utilisation. L'agencement était agréable et le petit clin d’œil de la porte coulissante semi transparente entre la chambre et la salle de bain nous ont permis d'utiliser la salle de bain en ayant une vue sur la mer. Nous avons testé le restaurant et nous nous sommes régalés avec un trés bon demi-homard et des coquilles saint jacques au risotto de cépes...dommage que notre appétit n'était pas assez important car le plateau de fruits de mer pour deux personnes nous tentait également beaucoup. En conclusion, un agréable séjour avec aucune fausse note..;a part peut être le temps :)
