Our short stay at Hotel Tumulus is quite memorable not only because of the view of the St. Michael Tumulus from our hotel window but also the friendliness and the care the hotel staff gave to us. The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, quiet and very comfortable. We will stay with them again and will gladly recommended them to friends and family.

Family stay at hôte Tumulus

We had to stay in an old house quite far away outside the hotel. The beds were not comfortable, we had booked 2 double king size beds and we had 2 single beds and 1 sofa bed. Decoration needs a serious refresh overall.

Very good hotel with a couple of exceptions.

Hotel in great location for town and attractions. Asked for a quiet room and got it by being upgraded to the annex building 30 meters away from main building. Restaurant very good despite some staff being a lttle starchy. if wi fi is lmportant to you then be aware it does not function at all reliably which is a pity. Main negative point is the telephone in our room does not function yet this is the only way to signal a fire for example. Nobody took notice of this despite our efforts. Shame. Apart from this point everything good.

Mixed

Fortunately we had a late booking deal otherwise we would have found this overpriced. The room was fine but nothing special. The service was just odd, what seemed professional at first soon appeared to be more passive aggressive, with over-elaborate service at table, if you enjoy that sort of ting this is the place for you.

Vacation for two

I think the hotel should invest in new bedding and mattresses. For some reason there was not enough Kleenex and toilet paper. We were there for three days. The staff are really great! The grounds are very well tended with beautiful Hydrangeas. There is a nice pool and spa. The breakfast is ample with some variety. The location of the hotel is ideal. We were at the hotel in July and it would have been wonderful if there had been air condition.

Hotel Tumulus

Very comfortable and within the area of the beaches and megaliths but far enough away from large crowds. Wished we would have known about the Sunday morning market right down the street. We saw it as we were leaving, but would have visited it if we weren't pressed for time.

Das Hotel du Tumulus in Carnac liegt am Rand des historischen Stadtkerns, der sich durch seine charmante Kirche, gemütliche Restaurants und verschiedene Geschäfte auszeichnet. Die berühmten Megalithen und das prähistorische Museum befinden sich in unmittelbarer Nähe. Zum Strand sind es etwa 30 bis 40 Minuten zu Fuß. Das Hotel wurde insgesamt renoviert und ist in gutem Zustand. Unser Familienzimmer befand sich jedoch in einem Nebengebäude, was aufgrund der Entfernung zu den Hoteleinrichtungen etwas unpraktisch war. Leider hatte das Zimmer einen modrigen Geruch. Bademäntel waren nur im Haupthaus verfügbar, nicht jedoch im Familienzimmer im Nebengebäude. Die Zimmerfotos auf der Webseite stammen offenbar aus dem Haupthaus und spiegeln den Zustand des Familienzimmers im Nebengebäude nicht akkurat wider. Der Service war teilweise freundlich, wirkte jedoch auch gelegentlich hektisch. Insgesamt bietet das Hotel du Tumulus eine gute Lage, insbesondere wenn man nicht direkt am Strand sein möchte. Es empfiehlt sich jedoch, ein Zimmer im Haupthaus zu buchen, um eine angenehmere Erfahrung zu gewährleisten.
