They are rude, insensitive, and actually even used threats to respond to us. We arrived with our guide dog from Paris with a train, and needed a taxi to get from the Cherbourg Train Station to the Irish Ferries Terminal, which is 3 km away. No one of this company drivers (about 5 of them) wanted to pick us up, even though it is against the law to refuse a guide dog. We had to start slowly walking with the dog and 2 large suitcases. Luckly a nice guy from Hertz Rental saw us, and offered us a quick ride to the ferry terminal, if it wasn't for him, we would miss our boat.

They went above and beyond what we could had expected and made our trip to Saint Malo that much better. The hotel is located right across the beach, with amazing sunset views. Fort National is right there, only accessible during low tide. The walled city is a five minute walk, and has so much to offer, especially food. The tourism office is right on the way towards the walled city. Our first day, or night I should say, was the worst possible start of a trip in the history of ever; but this hotel and it's wonderful, cheerful, helpful staff came right in and saved our trip. They made our first night super relaxed and enjoyable, though we'd been through hell. We can't recommend this hotel enough, it was really exactly what we needed to be able to reset ourselves and enjoy our trip after a terrible flight/car rental/arrival/stranded mishap (thanks for nothing Expedia -_-)

The location is pretty great, a 5 minute (or less) walk from Old Town, and right along the beach,…read morewith the harbor on the opposite side. The staff was beyond helpful, multi-lingual (including great English), and always seemed friendly and eager to help. We dealt with at least 5 different staff at the front desk, who helped us with everything from trains, car rentals, pizza delivery an tipping etiquette, to various other information. They even offered to make car rental arrangements for us, when our pre-booked rental fell through. If you are an English-speaking traveler, and your French is less than great, stop reading and book here. As for the room, they have a huge shower, with dual shower heads, and a separate room for the toilette. The bed was large, although it was really two pushed together. The mattress could be better, but this was the only real complaint. There is a garage for parking, but was 15€ a night. It is also very tight to maneuver down there. Luckily, we had the smallest car possible. The location of the hotel made for perfect, quick access to the beach for sunrise and sunset photos, right near an old island fort, accessible at low tide only. It is also right next to the main gates of the walled city, where all the food is located, including some late night options. I cannot recommend this place enough. It is more modern than charming, but the helpful staff alone is a huge arrow in your quiver, especially for first-timers in either France or St Malo, and for language challenged Americans.

Our guide was Louis Boubat, a history major in university, who'd spent a semester abroad in the U.S. Louis was extraordinarily knowledgeable, humorous, and solicitous throughout. His description of the Normandy countryside, the beaches, and battles began when departing Bayeux and concluded when we returned. He polled our group to assess our knowledge of WWII D-Day events and anwered all questions put to him (and once paused to research his reply.) We highly recommend both Louis and Overlord Tours.

The way he told the story of the Church of the Bloody Pews was the emotional highlight of the day and is something our family will never forget.

Wishing him nothing but the best in this next chapter. Thank you, Jack, for making this one of the highlights of our trip to France.

Very modern, nice, clean, and comfortable hotel…read more HOTEL: Spacious lobby and lounge area and a small bar and restaurant upstairs. When we arrived, the lobby was full with a group of people that were going out. We seamlessly checked into our rooms and got settled. ROOMS: The rooms were beautiful, clean, comfy, fully equipped and had a beautiful view of the beach. We have a baby with us and they had a crib, blanket, changing pad, and bottle warmer already set up in the room. There were bath robes, slippers, and a little piece of chocolate nicely laid out on the bed, and bathroom actually had plenty of towels, which was appreciated, as well as a toiletry pack, tissues, shampoo, conditioner, a makeup mirror (whoop whoop!), and water glasses. Coffee pods, a Nespresso machine, tea, a mini fridge and a safe were at our disposal. BAR: Not great. We had dinner reservations and wanted to have a drink before we left. We sat down and waited to be greeted. There were two other tables when we arrived so not very busy at all. After a good five minutes a girl greeted us and gave us menus. After another good five minutes a guy came over to take our order. Twenty minutes later (30 in total) still no drinks!!! We sadly had to leave or we would not make dinner. We told the bartender we couldn't wait any longer and he said only five more minutes but we could not wait and we left! All in all a very lovely hotel, and aside from the bar, we received excellent service and I would definitely recommend!

Felt very clean-- housekeeping did a wonderful job. The view of the ocean is one of the best features. The rooms have balconies with seating. Shower: truly one of the best shower experiences. Large, spacious shower with wonderful water pressure. Nice bath amenities including luxury soaps and a towel warmer Pool and Spa: We did not utilize the spa but thoroughly enjoyed the pool area. It was intimate, clean and relaxing. The water is more luke warm bathtub temperature vs. an American hot tub. Location: 10 minute walk to old town, 8 minutes to the conference center and 15 minute walk to the train station. Restaurant: The hotel restaurant has a breakfast for $20 euros. This is the best breakfast option we could find with the most options. We tried a breakfast at a restaurant in Old town and settled for a sub-par breakfast with toast and eggs for $42 euros. Just eat at the hotel. Also one of the few places that serves traditional American coffee. Staff: Helpful and friendly. All English speaking.

I stayed here from December 21st-25th, 2011.

The "sidewalk" leading to the hotel alternates between legitimate sidewalk and a makeshift patch of gravel (that often turns to mud during inclement weather), and dodging the cars of France's highways can be a little frantic. Once you make it to the hotel, however, all is good, as the place is completely secluded in the middle of a field. I didn't hear a peep from anyone I didn't want to during the four nights I was here. The window even has that strange shutter for nighttime darkness, so unique to the French. I would definitely stay here again, but wouldn't recommend this place for the elderly or lazy--you have to be willing to walk to the train station and city, which isn't much to ask of a New Yorker, but for others, it may be a bit much.

We booked this Ferry pretty last minute as we had an emergency come up. I had no clue what a Stena…read moreLine Ferry was going to be like and was quite nervous for my first overnight ferry. We checked in through customs and the ticket booth and waited with the other guests. My nerves were getting to me as I had no clue if I would get sea sick or what. But the second we drove up on deck and loaded our gear into our shared cabin all of those nerves went away! This was not a ferry... it was a miniature cruise!! The two of us thirty-year-old men wandered the deck like a couple of kids in a Chucky Cheese! There were several restaurants, shops, bars, an entertainer and a movie theater. All of my anxiety was immediately gone the second we were able to explore this ship! The food was amazing, we, of course, had the fish and chips for dinner and an Irish breakfast in the morning. The entertainer was awesome and I loved the Irish atmosphere that carried on in the bars. The ship did eventually start to sway, but you only felt it when walking as you started to swerve on your feet. When I got restless I would get on the deck and sit by the helipad. this was close to the center for the ship and I felt just fine afterward. Sleeping in the shared cabin went pretty well. There were about 20 people in the 50 seated cabin and most of us slept on the floor instead of the reclining chairs. I bought noise canceling headphones which were very helpful. Overall this was a fantastic journey that I would recommend over and over again. If you are traveling by car in Europe and need to take a ferry, Stena is the line for you!!
