Mont St. Michel is an amazing location and this hotel is in the heart of it. The breakfast included eggs, crepes, whole grain and dessert breads and a variety of beverages. Given the site, the hotel has an older, quaint charm.

Our room was up several flights of stairs probably 70-80 in all but thats to be expected on the island. Breakfast was outstanding, the bathroom attached to the room was excellent and had a separate shower and tub. Bed was comfortable and you get two pillows per person (which we have found is rare for Western Europe).

This hotel is located at the entrance so it’s very convenient. There are a significant amount of stairs so be prepared for that. The rooms are cute, beds are somewhat comfortable and the tv worked! Only real downfall was the restroom-it smelled terrible and I’m sure it was due to the very old plumbing but the smell was pretty awful. I hope it was just my room. Mont St Michel is amazing though and I had a wonderful time.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very pleasant stay! The hotel is actually three separate buildings, so you don't automatically get a room in the initial hotel above the famous restaurant. Only critique I would have is that we weren't given the hotel's six digit reservation code so we weren't able to enter the closest parking lot and had a long walk to the shuttle bus; but that may be Expedia's fault, not the hotel's, can't say for sure. All in all, a lifetime experience, we loved it!

This was an absolutely amazing place to stay. Completely unbeatable location and a surprisingly spacious room. Property was in impeccable condition. I would definitely come back. Only two small things lacking. There was an Nespresso machine, but no pods. There wasn't any soap or towels for the kitchenette or downstairs bathroom. Definitely not deal breakers as everything else was spectacular, but I would have at least brought my own pods if I had known.

Spending two nights on Mount Saint Michelle is a wonderful experience. Once the crowds of the day have disappeared it is nice to still walk the cobble streets and enjoy the atmosphere of this place. The hotel is classy and a good place to stay. There is some confusion about where to register for your Knights accommodation and where to have breakfast, but we finally worked that out.

They use misleading advertising, the photos they show of the place to offer their rent, are not the place where I stayed. The place had a strong and nauseating smell and the window could not be opened, because the door is left open all night, my window overlooked a dirty and dark place, close to the cemetery. One of the worst places I have ever been in my life!
