ibis Styles Saint Malo Centre Historique

Nicholas on reception made it a memorable trip. In addition to welcoming us he did an orientation of the centre, made excellent suggestions on where to walk, where to see the sunset, low tide opening up the causeway to one of the islands and where to eat. Comfortable clean room, good wet room, breakfast included. Only downside, which is not the hotel’s fault, is the street outside is noisy on a Saturday evening into the early hours and we were on the ground floor. However it is in a very good location for visiting the town & we managed to get parked outside our room.

The hotel was well located and sits right by the wall, in an area surrounded by good restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast adequate and the common parts were well kept, clean and tidy. There is good paid parking nearby. We were checked in by Nicholas who could run training courses on customer care! Nothing was too much trouble and he could not have been more friendly and welcoming. He gave advice on local restaurants and general information about the town.

Excellent location in the heart of St Malo. Rooms are very simple but does the job for 1-2 night. Dragging up the luggage the stairs is a bit uncomfortable . A kettle would be a great addition to each room.

Pro - Inside wall section of the city -Clean -Great Bfast Con - Small Room - Smaller elevator (CAN ONLY FiT TWO PEOPLE WITHOUT LUGGAGE) - Parking is not free- you need to pay for street parking (if you are driving)

We were told that no lift existed and never found one. Three floors up narrow stairs with heavy bags was hard going - ask for a first floor room if you an older person! The room was small but clean and had the usual French lack of a tea tray, however we brought our own kettle. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and the breakfast lady was a marvel, supplying a wide range and quantity of fresh food with excellent presentation - no wonder each table had a strange little plastic sign warning against taking food as a 'take away'. The location could not be better. Walls are paper thin and we could hear every word our neighbours said!
