We had breakfast at all the hotels we stayed at. The breakfast here was the least expensive and not quite as good as the others. As a fun note when we arrived late morning we knew it was early for check in. The street in front of the hotel was blocked off for a farmers market. It was a great chance to see the fish, vegetables, breads and cheeses we could have bought. But getting on the plane the next day buying was not an option. We parked a public lot a block away overnight. We took what we needed for one night out rather than drive the car up with our heavy bags. The people running the hotel were very very nice. Great location to see the cathedral and the castle.

Cheap two star hotel. Don’t expect any frills because there aren’t any but it is warm, very convenient and clean. Our room- 1 had been recently decorated very pleasantly. Room was small but fine for one night.

Hôtel bien situé à deux pas du beffroi. On avait même une vue du beffroi de notre chambre au 3ème étage (avec ascenseur) côté rue. La chambre était propre mais assez petite. Pas facile de caser une grosse valise ! Pas facile non plus de se garer près de l'hôtel car la rue Nationale est piétonne, mais on a de bons conseils à l'accueil et le personnel est sympathique. Nous recommandons cet hôtel.

欧州の良さが凝縮されたかの様な環境下にあるホテル。

モンサンミシェル近くの宿を元々予約していたのですが、理由不明にキャンセルされてしまい急遽手配したのがこちらのお宿。到着が遅くなってしまいましたが、オーナーが丁寧にユーモアを交えながら応対して頂き、感謝しています。フジェールの街並みは欧州らしさを表していて素晴らしかったです。 ホテル前の通りには、まさにゴッホの絵画『夜のテラス』の様な良い雰囲気を持ったパブがあります（中ではサッカー中継）。 ホテル設備は一般レベルですが、治安良く、静かなフジェールでの宿泊には、この宿を強くお勧めします。

Accueil convivial et personnel a l'écoute et très attentionné. Nous n'avons pas pu tester le dîner ayant réservé pour notre anniversaire de mariage dans un autre établissement ( recommandé par le maître des lieux). A refaire pour une visite plus approfondie de ce superbe village.
