Golden Tulip Saint Malo - Le Grand Bé
Modern, clean and comfortable hotel in prime location within the old city walls. Staff members are competent and cordial. Negatives include a curbless shower that results in an almost entirely wet bathroom floor when used, a subpar buffet breakfast and difficult to maneuver parking garage.
