Le Mont-Saint-Michel hotellia

Plussat: Excellent location. Bus stop for the free shuttles (navettes) to Mont St. Michel are right in front of the hotel/across the street. That is also the bus stop for the bus to Pontorson-- train station, which is the nearest SNCF station. Bed was comfy, room was clean.

Miinukset: The hotel and room layout was a bit odd. Definitely a well-worn property and dated. That's not a big deal to me, but if you're looking for a romantic hotel or it's a honeymoon, I'd keep looking. I also felt it was overpriced for what you get. They could definitely take better care of the outdoor areas/walkways.

Plussat: Good environment, good location, near bus station, very convenient if traveling from/to Rennes. Great breakfast. Comfy bed.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: The location is perfect if you are visiting Mont Saint Michel

Miinukset: The room had a smell of mold. I have allergy so didn't sleep really well. Also, I was a bit confused when I got to Mont St. Michel because I wasn't informed of the car-park access code. Therefore I paid unnecessarily for the car-park in one day

Plussat: Location

Plussat: The hotel is outside the place which is better . You have a free parking (5 e ) one time for coming in. You have a free bus all day until 24:00 It is walking distance We recomend this place also for its breakfast and the Bar it have and also for the rooms Great place

Miinukset: Not so easy to find the gate to go in by the code see

Plussat: Staff is friendly and location is excellent. We did not tried restaurant because of other review. To us looks ok. There are several restaurants near-by. The room is a little for American standard.

Plussat: Staff was great, rooms were very large by European standards, everything was clean. Very easy access to the shuttle for Mont St. Michele.

Miinukset: I was a little irritated that we couldn't get a seat at the hotel restaurant as guests of the hotel. I actually didn't even realize they had a restaurant, but when I checked with other highly rated restaurants in the area, they said that things were slow this time of year and reservations weren't necessary, so I didn't make a lot of effort. Would be nice if they frequently fill up on the restaurant side to inquiry about reservations when you make the room reservation. We ended up spending our money across the street which was fine, but not as convenient. Oh and there were LOTS of open tables at the restaurant, so clearly it was an issue with something else other than space.

Plussat: - Location

Miinukset: - Staff should be more attentive and helpful

Plussat: A good, clean, straight forward hotel. Friendly staff. The free bus to Mont St. Michel, just a mile down the road, and back to the train station both stop right in front of the hotel. There is a good restaurant right next door that stays open later than the restaurants actually on the Mont. Unless you are traveling light I would recommend staying in the small town and not on the Mont. You can only be taken so close to the Mont and then you still have to carry or roll your luggage up the narrow, steep, crowded street to your hotel. And restaurants close usually by 8:30 if they even stay open that late. The free shuttle runs til midnight, and if you stay later it's still only a flat mile walk back. So you can have all evening to explore when the crowds are gone with none of the inconvenience of actually staying on the Mont. But in either case, if you like soft drinks or bottled water or snacks, bring your own. There were no grocery stores nearby.

Miinukset: No elevator, but it is only 2 floors.

Plussat: Nearby to Mont St Michel, the facility and the staff were great! Breakfast was substantial and good. The bus shuttle is in front although the Abbaye is walkable.

Plussat: Great shower and bathroom was clean. Good sized room, with plenty of room for luggage and to spread out. Extremely convenient location with the shuttle and walking path to Mont St. Michel. Bar/Restaurant staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: ALLERGY SUFFERERS BEWARE! This is a pet friendly hotel and something in our room set off 4 days of allergy problems. Some reception staff were surly and less than helpful, both with bringing in luggage and explaining their complicated parking system.

Plussat: Close to Mont Saint Michell island

Miinukset: The room was far too small for the price you pay , and Hotel room only has one power point .

Plussat: Great location

Miinukset: Staff a little ignorant

Plussat: NOTHING

Miinukset: customer service.

Plussat: locatiion very good , short walk from bus terminal and 2 km walk or free shuttle bus to Le mont st michel. Room very clean and reasonable size.

Miinukset: no lift, mold on ceiling of bathroom ( a lot ), no english channels on TV, foyer area needed sweeping

Plussat: You can't beat the location of the hotel. It's not on the island but I think I prefer to be able to drive to the facility and park the car.

Miinukset: The entry into the gated road to the hotel could have better communication. I knew there was a code to get in. I emailed the hotel for the number and was not given a code. Perhaps the codes change daily but it would have been easier if I was instructed to call for the code once I arrived to the gate.

Miinukset: please let guests know the parking arrangement well in advance. Not all guests have internet the day of checking in to find out the parking arrangement. Therefore we paid considerably more than we needed to

Plussat: This hotel in in a community where you can drive in, get a car park access code and park. Hotel Gabriel is near restaurants and shops, the shuttle bus to the Mont ( which travels every 20 minutes to and from the Mont for free till midnight.) The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast had lots of variety. Staff were friendly and helpful. We travelled in early October do we really had no hassles with a park or large crowds.

Miinukset: Watch your head on the ceiling on the messanine floor and be careful going down the stairs, they are steep!

Plussat: Convenient location - close to the shop and restaurant. Shuttle stop is just 1 min walk away. Breakfast is up to expectation, no surprise though.

Miinukset: We just stayed for 1 night so nothing to complain.

Plussat: Hotel is in a great location, walking distance to Mont Saint Michel. Rooms are nicely designed and looks nice.

Miinukset: Breakfast is very very weak. It will not harm receptionists to smile a bit to customers :)

Plussat: great breakfast and location

Plussat: Location and breakfast.

Miinukset: Size of room, very small. Difficult to walk. Also, carpet not clean, hair in bathroom sink. I know it is a busy hotel.

Plussat: Hyvä hotelli.

Miinukset: ?

Plussat: Very well located in Mont St Michel. Friendly staff.

Miinukset: Improve wi fi connectivity.

Plussat: Good breakfast and really good location. One day before your arrival in case you are with car, you should ask a code to entry on the gate, once the hotel are in the “backyard” of mont Saint Michel

Miinukset: No lifts, but if you don’t have too many luggage isn’t a problem at all!

Plussat: It was close to our destinations

Miinukset: We didn’t think the locks were adequate. And the carpets were heavily stained

Plussat: Great location, it has a restaurant on site which was good however the service was very slow due to under-staffing I believe. Parking was easy. It was a tad difficult to find without having been sent prior instructions however we got there with pigeon french and a lot of hand movements

Miinukset: Only the restaurant service, it was slow and the place was a mess.

Plussat: Great location for Mont St. Michel. GPS sent us to a security gate that was for Emergency Vehicles Only. We found a different security gate on the other side of the large public parking lot. You need to call the hotel in advance to get the code for the security gate. There is parking on-site of the hotel. There are no elevators but the stairs are doable. Dinner at the restaurant was outstanding! The scallops in fondue are delicious. Desserts are works of art. Free shuttle buses pick up near front of hotel for Mont St. Michel.

Miinukset: The hotel rooms are a bit run down but showers are new and wonderful.

Plussat: Great hotel with a great location. We had a large room with a view of Mont St Michel.

Miinukset: Everything was great

Plussat: Location is perfect. I stayed at Monst Saint Michel view room, and we could see it from the best location. It was cold so we didn't use but large terrace was there as well. Reception staffs were very helpful during our stay.

Miinukset: Safety box was broken. There was no instruction how to use your coffe machine in the room, but when I called the front desk, receptionist came to help. I think these are acceptable unless you are staying at luxury hotels like Ritz Paris.

Plussat: The only good part is the location and the view but it’s not worth it

Miinukset: The staff was slow and rude, restaurant was something beyond your wildest imagination - dirty, expensive, service and food were the worst. My advice - try eating at Saint Michel there are plenty of nice places with proper food. Even breakfast was shocking - no hot water for tea, no cheese...Empty/ not refilled pots of warm dishes..

Miinukset: Sime staffs so so at best... Heater did nit work in the room At first no hot water (was fixed later) Basically....the rich owner dont give a s....about renovating even a bit their cash cows.

Plussat: Great location. Comfortable rooms. Friendly team.

Miinukset: Food seems expensive for what it is. €38 for steak and chips. Breakfast was included but pretty average.

Plussat: As close as it gets to Mont St. Michel, very nice. Breakfast was ok with a nice view.

Miinukset: No toilet paper in the room, no towels, dirty laundry was parked right beside the rooms door during the whole stay. Rooms are worn out.

Plussat: Location was great.

Miinukset: 17 euro for buffet breakfast and same rate for children! Family of 4 (kids 4 and 8) - 68 euro breakfast? No thank you. Big water stains on the ceiling of the room - not great when you are paying > 300euro/night. Overall not worth it to stay on island as food choices (not just this hotel but the whole island) super expensive and poor quality - it's a tourist trap! I though the ability to be there in low crowds would outweigh the above, but nope. Better to stay cheaper off site and take the shuttle early/late to avoid crowds.

Plussat: very quiet, and perfect for sleep

Miinukset: slightly confusing in terms of navigating through the property, main picture on the website isn't represented correctly

Miinukset: Prices are highly overstated for what you get - a total tourist trap. And the staff are brisk to the point of bordering on rudeness.

Plussat: Check in was very smooth. My room had a beautiful view of the sea. The staff was very accommodating. It was nice being on the island after most of the tourists had left.

Miinukset: The food in the restaurant was okay, but it was also very convenient.

Plussat: Cutest room with view on the bay. Good breakfast with fresh fruit and crepes.

Miinukset: They should tell you that you have to walk to get to your room. I read it in other reviews here, so I knew, but for some people it can be quite a walk (but if you're not up to walking up stairs etc. I wouldn't recomment Mont st Michel alltogether). The two beds were a little annoying to sleep on. Coffee is not that great.

Plussat: It is on the island and the whole Mont St Michel is just incredibly beautiful.

Miinukset: Most of the restaurants on the island is a rip-off. Totally overpriced and the food is mediocre. But they get 2 million visitors a year so it doesn't really matter.

Plussat: Location was very good if you want to stay inside the wall. Our room was an annex but it was in a nice little street. It seems that’s the case for most rooms of most hotels inside the wall. For this reason we had to climb at least 40 steps to get to our room so be advised to get a small bag with you.

Miinukset: It was a little bit pricey and the staff could have been more friendly.

Miinukset: They have no facilities for helping with luggage. When people are travelling to many places , and coming from different countries, it's impossible to control the amount of nessisary luggage .but otherwise, a great stay

Plussat: Location, great bathroom

Miinukset: Stains on carpet

Plussat: The view was amazing, the room felt like a garret on top of the world, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant was an institution.

Plussat: Outstanding location. Room was clean, but very small. Bathroom was renovated recently and very good condition (huge relative to the room). Beds were comfortable.

Miinukset: Room was a little on the small side, but the location and price made up for the rest.

Plussat: Beautiful view of the tidal flats. Nice room. Awesome being on the island at night.

Miinukset: Hard to keep windows open on hot days from the noise from seagulls at night and early morning deliveries to businesses

Plussat: Amazing location, large room and very clean.

Miinukset: Front desk staff was a bit standoffish and not particularly friendly.

Plussat: Nice breakfast! Clean, wished coffee in the room was not an extra charge. Great location

Miinukset: no comment

Plussat: At Late hours and early morning ... you literally have the island for your self. Best way. to explore

Plussat: Sisustuksesta, huoneesta ja palvelusta.

Plussat: Had we know ahead of time that our very small room required us to climb 136 stairs (84 outside to get to the lobby area) with our luggage, we might've made reservations at one of the hotels at the base. Even carrying our small carry-on up and down was inconvenient and a waste of our time. Glad we asked about the price of breakfast that they tried to sell us a check in, 19.00 Euros Each! We ate elsewhere for 8.00 Euros each. Peeling paint and unfurnished second lobby where the rooms located.

Miinukset: No one in the lobby when we tried to check in had to come back. Didn't feel welcome at all, especially when we decided not to pre-pay breakfast and dinner. Outdated, worn out decor everywhere was disheartening considering the location and prices. Very small room with the same worn out carpeting and furnishings. Moderately clean. Location is a plus, however, the free shuttle busses run until 11:00 PM so we could have easily stayed just outside the area and rode back and forth.

Plussat: Location is brilliant. Expensive but would recommend for a special night.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Miinukset: very, very, very small bathroom.... claustrophobic feeling

Plussat: Just the very best location you could imagine. We loved walking the streets of Mont Saint-Michel at night with no one around. Just magical!

Miinukset: It is overpriced so you pay for location, location, location. Shower was not very good. Breakfast was adequate but the coffee was just ok.

Plussat: Fantastic view from the window.

Plussat: Having an overnight stay on Le Mont St Michel is amazing. Walking around a medieval walled island city at midnight with no one else around is truly daunting. Only a few lights line the Grand Rue, and with rain and wind, finding the solace of light is highly welcome. If you stay on the island, you can take in mass at 06:50 in the abbey. Furthermore, you can be the first in the abbey the next morning beating the day crowds for space and photos. The dinner formule by the restaurant Le Mouton Blanc was also a good meal with nice ambience and very efficient staff. The included breakfast the next morning is a well supplied spread of pastries, cheese, meats, cereals, juices and coffee/tea. While the rooms are tiny, they are very clean and well presented.

Miinukset: Well....the staff member at the front desk was on her own and working frantically to process a large volume of check ins and out. Hence, the lines were long as Le Mouton Blanc check in is currently done by Les Terraces Poulard. If you are not fluent in French then the difficult annex building locations are very hard to follow and even worse for her to explain. Then, our two rooms were in seperate buildings, not a major problem, but inconvenient when travelling with children. For those who are 6 foot or taller, then you won't fit on these single beds which are shorter and less wide then any single bed I've ever seen.

Plussat: Great castle location, great staff!

Plussat: Staff was very kind and helpful. Great location.

Miinukset: Restroom a little too small

Plussat: It wasn't an Irish breakfast !!!!! but as continental breakfasts go it was good.

Miinukset: The fact that we were directed to an annex 50meters away and was unable to find it in the rain.

Plussat: Wonderful location in a beautiful place.

Plussat: Best to confirm in advance that there's no special event at the Abbey - we were unable to visit the Abbey as there was a concert (?) there. Don't miss the walk around the rampart.

Miinukset: Best to confirm in advance that there's no special event at the Abbey - we were unable to visit the Abbey as there was a concert (?) there. Don't miss the walk around the rampart.

Plussat: Staying in Mont St Michelle Not many options as it is all tourists View of the Main Street Separate from main hotel

Miinukset: Breakfast and customer service but we were not expecting much. The goal was to experience staying in the island and enjoying it without the crowds, which we achieved.

Plussat: our charming room

Miinukset: we loved everything. It was perfect

Plussat: dinner and location

Miinukset: little bit small room

Plussat: The fact that it was located on Mont St. Michel.

Miinukset: No porters. No lifts. Terrible service in the restaurant.

Plussat: Location was excelent, staff were nice and pleasent.

Plussat: The location of the hotel was fantastic! The room was clean and neat.

Miinukset: The breakfast was a little pricey. And they gave us a room overlooking the main street which was a bit loud, I assume in the peak season it would have been pretty unbearable with the nose.

Plussat: Clean, centrally located, friendly staff and good facilities.

Miinukset: Expensive for what it was, but understandable due to central location.

Plussat: the location in the annex gave me views of the bay and of the abbey!

Miinukset: The room in the annext lacked the charm of the main building.

Plussat: Room was great, staff was friendly, the location could not be any better are a few good things that come to mind. The hotel restaurant was very good also.

Miinukset: There was no one to help with the luggage. This was a problem as the parking lot was a long way away from the hotel.

Plussat: The staff were very polite and helpful. They even helped me print my boarding pass for free. The location is perfect as it is very close to the Abbey.

Miinukset: There were vending machines but they were closed at night. It rained heavily during my stay and there is no kettle/tea or coffee facilities inside the room, which could have helped ease the cold during my stay.

Plussat: bed was soft and comfortable. toilet was bigger than expected. room was nice and cosy. staff was informative. location was fantastic, breakfast was good.

Miinukset: no sink in the toilet, locks to the toilet doors were faulty.

Plussat: The staff at the reception were extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast buffet was good, the location excellent.

Miinukset: We asked for twin beds but found a single double bed. The receptionist solved the problem. Check-in time 4 pm and check out time 11:30 am was not convenient.

Plussat: Hotelli on hyvällä paikalla jos liikut omalla autolla, linnakirkon lähelle on säännöllinen kuljetus puoleen yöhön asti. Hotellin vieressä on hyvä ravintola. Linna on hyvin erikoinen ja mielenkiintoinen.

Miinukset: Alue on puomin takana, jouduin hakemaan avauskoodin hotellista kävelemällä. Avauskoodin voisi laittaa varausvahvistuksen mukana sähköpostiin.

Miinukset: We were not given code to pass the gate and we were waited for it for an hour

Plussat: Location is very good. The breakfast was very good. The staff was professional and courteous. The room was small but adequate.

Miinukset: Both nights were very noisy with a bus load party that walked the halls talking loud and sitting in the lobby area all hours being loud. We showed up to register at 1:00 and no one was there until 4:00 PM. The code I received by e-mail did not work. A parking lot attendant helped us to get a new number.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Poor quality room with 4 beds & little space. No air conditioning. Evening meal & breakfast limited quality

Plussat: Everything was wonderful! Thanks ❤️

Plussat: The "front desk gentleman" was amazingly helpful and spoke perfect English (helpful for us). The restaurant (across parking lot)staff were very good and the food was quite okay. Make sure to eat the complimentary breakfast as the food at the abbey is very expensive. Easy shuttle runs quite regularly.

Miinukset: The entrance gate isn't easy to find and you must remember to get the code to access.

Plussat: The staff were very nice and helpful about the shuttle to Mont Saint-Michel. The breakfast was delicious and the room was nice and cozy. The bathroom was very big and the shower was nice.

Miinukset: Bookingin kautta varatessa en saanut alueen sulkevan puomin koodia ja siinä olikin sommittelua sitten päästä alueelle vaikka sielä oli huone varattu. Soitto ei auttanut, kun vastaaja ei puhunut englantia.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti ja pysäköinti isollekin autolle. Hyvä aamiainen.

Miinukset: Erillinen wc ilman käsienpesumahdollisuutta. Pesutilana amme suihkulla, hankala / vaarallinen käyttää. Kokolattiamatto. Palohälytys soi yli 15min, ei minkäänlaista ragointia henkilökunnalta! Hinta laatusuhde ei kohdallaan.

Plussat: sijainti hyvä

Miinukset: Ei tilaa matkalaukulle. Huone pieni, huonosti suunniteltu ja kulunut. Vaikka näköala joelle - pienet ja korkealla olevat ikkunat. Koko hotelli kaipaa ehostusta. Vaikeuksia puomin kanssa eikä henkilökunta ollut perehtynyt avaajien toimintaan.

Plussat: Beds were comfortable

Miinukset: Room dreary. View of coach in car park. No tea or coffee facilities. Woken by drips of water from ceiling. Damage to ceiling for some time was clearly visible. No shelves or stowage space in bathroom. Reception not manned when requiring check out. Stains on carpet. OVERPRICED!!! Not what we were expecting for the high price we paid!

Plussat: Excellent location . Good value , rooms were clean , neat and comfortable.river view with little balcony add to lovely feel. Just what you need for a quick stop when visiting the monastery .

Plussat: Front desk tried to help, bed was comfy.

Miinukset: Not clean, mold in the shower, not maintened (shower and toilet clogged), very small room, ... - bad experience !

Plussat: Location was great.

Miinukset: Hotel was very dated and needs a refresh

Plussat: Sijainti on paras mahdollinen.

Miinukset: Pieni huone. Suuniteltu yhdelle, lukulamppujen ja yöpöytien määrästä päätellen. Respa kyllä neuvoi, mutta pahasti pieleen. Ellei tiedä, on parempi myöntää, kuin antaa puolikkaita opastuksia. Ylimääräinen palohälytyskään ei tunnelmaa nostanut. Noilla hinnoilla turistikohteessakin soisi homman hoituvan.

Plussat: A little shabby , breakfast was in another hotel strange but it was good

Plussat: Great view of Mont Saint Michel from dining room

Miinukset: Nothing we didn’t like

Plussat: The views from breakfast are the best

Plussat: It’s location for an overnight visit.

Miinukset: Dated decor. Curtains need repair.

Plussat: The location is all--right inside the gate at Mont St. Michel! The hotel staff were all lovely and welcoming and most helpful, except for the maitre d' of the hotel restaurant. It was a bit of a challenge to climb to our room--three flights up, go outside and down an old stone staircase with no handrails, enter another building, and go up to the third floor. No elevators, of course! Come fit, prepared, and with minimal baggage. The views are spectacular! The hotel breakfast buffet is terrific!

Miinukset: It might be helpful to have a handout to give guests when they arrive so that they can find rooms in the annex. It is quite the trip up and down multiple staircases. The only real flaw in our stay was the maitre d' at La Mere Poulard restaurant. We had made a reservation for dinner our first night, but when we appeared, he first rushed passed us pushing my sister out of the way quite roughly, then practically shouted at us while waving his hands that he had no tables and was full. When we convinced him we had reserved a table, he looked at his list, and, sure enough, there we were on it. However, he then went and surveyed the dining room for some time and came back and said he had no room for us. We went to another restaurant and were glad we did. There are many other good options nearby, not nearly as crowded, and with more welcoming staff. We recommend staying away from the restaurant, which has become more popular than it can handle.

Plussat: It' inside the walls of Mount Saint Michel... and the team is nice and attentive.

Miinukset: Our room was in an annex building... 4 floors of stairs. The entrace of the annex was not very clean AND The breakfast is not that good...

Plussat: The location is UNBEATABLE! We were very lucky to find 3 rooms on short notice (Mont Saint-Michel sells out quickly); it is quite magical to stay on the island. The staff was great, as well as the breakfast. Stunning views on the bay. I would do it all over again if I could! Important note: you still need to reserve at the restaurant downstairs if you want to eat the famous omelette.

Miinukset: Lots of stairs, so pack light! Standard comfort for a steep price, but you don't come for luxury, you come for the magic of Mont Saint-Michel (I would do it all over again!). No a/c but wasn't needed.

Plussat: Sijainti hieno

Miinukset: Hotelli aika kulahtanut

Plussat: The staff was the very best. The young gentleman at reception was super helpful. We loved staying in such a historic part of Mont Saint-Michel. Watching the chefs prepare the famous omelette was a real treat too

Miinukset: Priced very high but you pay for location

Plussat: Fabulous way to see mont saint michel- check in late, walk the Abbaye and have the island to yourself. Very quiet night! No AC

Miinukset: No AC- Food wasn’t great

Plussat: Nice room, goodining amenities. In-room coffee pot would be nice but was provided downstairs with breakfast.

Miinukset: No wifi. Didn't know we needed dinner reservations, dinners are early on Mont Saint Michel.

Plussat: For spending the night on Mont St-Michel, this is the best. It's located just inside the gate from the causeway. Then you climb lots of stairs to your room. But hey, you are going to climb, climb, climb on the Mont anyway, and there was a door straight out to the adjacent staircase from our room- we were part way to the abbey already! Loved the breakfast and dinner at restaurant was awesome, with the famous omelets. The bed was comfy, and the bathroom just fine. We had a good time staying here, it was just what we needed.

Miinukset: Our room was located on the European 3rd floor (4th floor US). The windows opened to one of the staircases going up the Mont, and people could see in, but we just arranged the curtains to block the view. There was some white-noise from not sure what, some kind of roaring generator or AC unit down below our windows and we needed to keep the windows open for air circulation as it was quite stuffy in the room. It didn't keep us awake. :)

Plussat: We had a bay view room on tbe 3rd floor. Everything. View,, size of room, comfortable bed, fresh air.it was amazing!

Miinukset: Very early morning lengthy garbage disbursement of bottles by restaurant below.

Plussat: This hotel is on Mont Saint Michel. Staying here allows you to explore the Mont at night. This is a magical experience.

Miinukset: As expected on the Mont, there are many many stairs. Pack very lightly.
