La Motte Brûlon Holidays from £362

Lovely place to stay in a lovely town.

Safe was not in our room?

Stayed here as a family of 6 and honestly couldn’t fault it overall. The location is great - around 10 minutes’ drive into the walled city and harbour, about 7 minutes to the aquarium, plus loads of supermarkets, restaurants and shops nearby, so everything you need is within easy reach. We had our car with us and the free onsite parking was a massive win. Plenty of spaces, no circling the car park hoping for a miracle. We arrived pretty late but reception is open 24/7 and the welcome was still warm and friendly. Our room was gorgeous - spotlessly clean, super comfy beds, a lovely big bathroom and everything felt modern and well looked after. We visited during the 38-40°C heatwave, so the air conditioning deserves its own 5-star review… it made sleeping an absolute dream! The only little thing I’d have loved was complimentary bottled water in the room. In those temperatures it would’ve been a really nice touch. Breakfast was the only thing that didn’t quite hit the mark. It wasn’t bad, just pretty basic for the extra cost, so next time we’d save our money and grab breakfast elsewhere. Would we stay again? Absolutely. Stylish hotel, friendly staff, great parking, comfy rooms and an ideal base for exploring Saint-Malo. Easy recommendation from us.

Nice value; the hotel was oddly historic mixed with lower end mid-tier hotel construction (in room closets, bathrooms, etc). The restaurant was a lovely surprise! Small menu but each item was spot-on. It was on par with a Michelin restaurant we ate at the night before (without being too fancy). Staff was amazing - everyone of them.
