Conveniently located for an easy access to all the historical sites, the hotel provided comfort and safety. Ample breakfast with vegan options and well labeled choices was served in a bright and welcoming environment. Coffee machine with hot water option was set up in the lobby, along the microwave. Interesting in-room bathroom pod needed an extra deep cleaning, but everyday room service was very good.

Very quiet, clean and comfortable beds with excellent bedding. Breakfast poor value and clearly understaffed, things ran out and buffet was not well maintained- not the fault of the one person trying to look after it.

I chose this hotel because of the close vicinity to train station two minutes away when visiting St Malo. The bus station is also close by making it very convenient when we visited Mt Saint Michel. Accommodations were very nice and if they had a mini-frig and microwave, this would have been perfect. The property was well maintained and if I had any other recommendations, it would be to replace the carpeting but otherwise, I would recommend this hotel for others that do not want to be near city center.

Très bel hôtel cet IBis à un prix 50% moins cher grâce au site hôtels.com. Personnel d'accueil très agréable et la chambre vraiment confortable. De plus, l'hôtel est au dessus de la gare. J'ai pu quitter la chambre 20 minutes avant le départ de mon train et j'étais en avance sur le quai..... Au top !
