Hotel Review

We enjoyed our stay in the Douarnenez area and the hotel provided a pleasant base to enjoy it from. Breakfast was good and the evening meal very good. Staff were very pleasant and helpful . The accommodation in the annex was clean, comfortable and quiet. The condition of the building that your hardworking staff was housed in, shocked us as it looked dilapidated. This also impacts on guests such as ourselves, whose rooms looked onto it from the annex. Quite a difference from the views from the main building.

MĂȘme si nous Ă©tions dans de second bĂątiment , la chambre Ă©tait sale, sous les toits sans aucun Ă©quipement. Pour accĂ©der Ă  la piscine il faut payer les 22€ par personne pour l accĂšs Ă  la thalasso, cette derniĂšre ne faisait vraiment pas envie, tĂąches de rouille sur les jacuzzis , sombre et peu frĂ©quentĂ©. Le personnel Ă©tait agrĂ©able mais avait peur de se faire sanctionner a chaque demande. Le petit dĂ©jeuner Ă©tait sympathique, mais attention aux mouettes Ă  l extĂ©rieur.

Correct, mais pas au niveau de la promesse

Belle chambre, belle douche, bon lit. Au dessus d'un balcon avec un client fumeur, dommage... Bùtiment a l'écart de l'hÎtel, accÚs a la piscine et au spa un peu compliqué du coup + pas de vue mer. Attention, payer pour place parking ne garanti pas qu'il y aura de la place pour se garer, mais en parler a l'accueil a permis de résoudre le problÚme.
