ibis Styles Saint Malo Port

Very good location with views towards the old town. Liked the enclosed little balcony with table and chairs. Room was a good size, as was the bathroom. Comfortable bed. Friendly staff. Secure car parking but a bit expensive.

This is our go-to hotel when having to overnight in St. Malo due to the ridiculous ferry timings. Very convenient for the terminal, yet only a 15 minute walk to the walled town. Clean, comfortable room, efficient reception and the bonus of a secure, underground garage. On check in when we advised that we would be leaving around 5.30am, they said that they would arrange for the (very good) breakfast to ready even earlier than the usual 6am start and they duly obliged. The best Ibis we have stayed in.

Stayed at the hotel before, and was very pleased with all aspects, room, parking, breakfast, snacks. When we arrived, we were able to park in the secure garage and walk into St Malo. The room was very good, we had our Grandson with us, and the sleeping arrangements were great, We went down to reception and ordered a snack and this was served very proficiently by the staff. Tea and coffee was plentiful. The breakfast was excellent, with lots of choice. We would book again.

We stayed here before boarding the ferry, it couldn't be closer! However we were pleasantly surprised by the hotel's location having previously stayed around the old port - Saint-Servan is worth a look, good local restaurants. The hotel has an excellent underground car park (13 euros). Covid hygiene measures were very good. The Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were fairly standard IBIS but there is a nice breakfast area where you can also buy a drink during the day and it was quiet at night. There is no restaurant but the hotel was helpful in recommending nearby places to eat. The only problem was the online check-in, which I had done so that we could leave very early without checking out. I received an email confirmation and a pre-authorisation was taken, I even got a fast checkout invoice emailed, but when we were about to drive off I had a call to say the system wasn't working so I had to go back and pay manually. I think it must be the Accor system as I had the same problem at an earlier hotel.

Friendly Reception staff. Accommodation was clean but rather small in size. However, no lunch or dinner was available and there were no English TV Channels - unlike IBIS La Madeleine. The Continental Breakfast was adequate but it was a great pity there were no toasts or boiled eggs. A charge of Euros 13.00 for underground parking was, in my view, excessive. A great bonus was for the hotel to keep our Freezer Bag overnight.
