Very basic hotel, dated rooms, very well used mattresses. Its in a very loud location (no fault of the hotel) but note there is no AC and the rooms are very warm so you need the windows open however its so loud it keeps you awake.

Friendly staff clean room. We had paid for ocean front but did not get a room with ocean view. Didn’t matter because we were literally steps from the ocean. Owner super helpful with parking as we could not figure out where we to park. Great stay.

Room was down graded from standard balcony to economy due to a fault. Only renumeration offer was a free breakfast, even though we said we couldn't make use of due to an early start for the Le Shuttle. WiFi code in the room didn't work. No tea or coffee facilities available in the room.

Cet hôtel est très bien situé à quelques mètres des vastes plages de Malo-les-bains. Les chambres sont propres et bien aménagées. Le lit est très confortable. La salle de bain est propre avec un matériel en très bon état. La douche est un peu étroite. Cela suffit néanmoins pour des personnes de taille et stature moyennes. L'accueil fut simple, efficace et agréable. A l'inscription, le personnel vous fournit un code pour accéder à l'hôtel quand vous le souhaitez. C'est pratique, vu que la porte d'entrée est verrouillée électriquement en permanence. Par bonheur, nous sommes arrivés à un moment où un client déjà présent à l'intérieur de l'hôtel nous a ouvert la porte d'entrée mais nous ne pouvons dire ce qui serait arrivé si personne n'était présent dans le hall d'accueil à cet instant.... C'était un 11 août, donc rapport qualité/prix un peu défavorable. Nous sommes heureux de ce séjour et recommandons cet hôtel pour un ou quelques jours à la côte. Malo est une commune agréable en été.

Nice hotel and very good location. Lots of nice bars and restaurants within a few minutes walk. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Handy parking, either in the hotel car park, or immediately outside on the street. The room was compact, but had a nice balcony to sit out. No aircon, so had to leave the window open a bit so aware of some street noise. All in all, a nice hotel

Hôtel très pratique à 2 pas de la plage. La chambre est de taille correcte, la salle de bain est assez petite mais bien agencée avec une grande douche. Très bon accueil. Très bon petit déjeuner. Seul bémol, peu de places de parking réservées pour l'hôtel, et malgré le nombre important de places gratuites aux alentours, l'affluence en ce weekend du 14 juillet ne permettait pas de se garer près de l'hôtel. Il faut avoir un peu de chance !

Cet hôtel 2 * est idéalement situé à 2 pas du casino, du Kursaal et de la plage. Il a été rénové récemment. La chambre et la salle de douche sont quasi neuves. Nous avons apprécié la vue de la plage depuis le balcon équipé d’une table et 2 chaises. Le petit déjeuner est excellent surtout pour le prix. Seul bémol, nous étions au 2ème étage et il n’y a pas d'ascenseur. C’est important à signaler car selon votre capacité physique, cela peut être problématique pour monter vos bagages. Cependant il faut signaler le bon rapport qualité prix à Malo les bains en pleine saison.

De locatie vlak bij het strand en op rijafstand van de Eurotunnel was de belangrijkste reden om voor dit hotel te kiezen. Voor de terugweg hebben we toch maar wat anders geboekt. Het hotel oogt vermoeid en goedkoop en het geld niet waard. Er is niet echt een receptie, je moet je melden bij de kassa van het restaurant. De kamer was wel oké, de badkamer erg klein. Maar de twee belangrijkste nadelen waren de gehorigheid van de kamers en de onrust buiten op straat. Het gesprek in de kamer naast ons was bijna woordelijk te verstaan. Wij waren er op een zaterdagavond en waren getuige van een grote groep luidruchtige jongeren op straat die door de politie verdreven moesten worden. Als je iets anders kunt vinden, zou ik daar maar voor kiezen...
