ibis Saint-Malo La Madeleine

They were not ready for us and the twin beds had not been sorted. It was gone 7 pm. They’d had a bad day. We settled for the Kingsize bed. Hope to sleep okay. Long drive in the uk tomorrow Thought it very expensive for what it is. No cups in room.

Convenient for ferry port

Food hotel for transit to ferry. Good location and staff really helpful

Before I write this review it's all about perspective... I wanted to stay in Saint Malo but it's fair to say this is not in Saint Malo centre. It's on more of an industrial estate / shopping centre around 30 minutes by bus from the Saint Malo Train Station (Gare) or the Port with access to the Citadel. (This is reflective in the cost based on the location) I have rated this hotel average as it's a little dated and needs a refresh. Breakfast Buffet was adequate and pretty normal for an IBIS hotel. Transport, bus's run from a stop across the large carpark, and if travelling into the centre this cost needs to be factored. Returning to the hotel by bus can be a little more restrictive in terms of time of last bus and frequency. Wi-Fi as with each IBIS I visited in this trip worked well as part of the Accor Group. I generally define hotels by stating if I would choose this hotel again and the answer is NO in this case. As I was there only 2 nights I would pick somewhere closer to the Port or the Citadel. City Tax is paid locally at the hotel and is taken upon Check-In. The hotel does have a lift between floors and a luggage trolly was available in reception for moving bags between car and room. (Handy if on a Road Trip).

The A/C seems to be stuck on. A high, and pretty stuffy!

A little more signage telling you how to reach the hotel

Perfect for a short stay

Fantastic hotel in a quiet location, staff extremely helpful and available 24/7. Reception area very comfortable with plenty of seating and child friendly area. All areas of the hotel are very clean and pleasant. Plenty of free car parking and close to places to eat and a large supermarket for food and fuel. The bedroom was immaculate and well furnished with very comfortable king-size bed with TV, kettle and coffee and tea provided. Excellent shower with spotless towels and shampoo etc. Breakfast was very substantial with a good selection of cooked eggs, bacon and sausage plus cold meat and cheeses, fresh fruit, cereal and several different breads and croissants. Very good coffee and fruit juices. Would recommend as an overnight stop or a longer stay for a holiday in the Saint Malo area with lots of interesting places to go.

We found the staff friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The bed was also comfortable enabling a good night’s sleep. We would not hesitate recommending this hotel.

Secreted away in back of Carrefour carpark. Convenient Buffalo Grill hidden down alley way at back. Not glamorous but comfortable. Bus trip to st Malo Intra muros

Super petit déjeuner beaucoup de choix.

Nice hotel. Everything is new and the room is in excellent condition. Small room but no complaint with reasonable price. Good choice if you would like to find a hotel near St. Malo port.

Great base, 10 mins fro main harbour area. Clean and modern room and all staff helpful.and friendly

The people in the rooms next to us were noisy quite late but that was not the fault of the hotel. We are happy to recommend and use the hotel again.

Nice easy stay

Always makes for a good stop off point before embarking on longer journey. Also great shopping at supermarket.

Arrived after a long drive though France experiencing poor driving conditions- a lady (I think by name of Katherine) checked us in with great humour - she spoke english to us but we had to reply in french. Check-in super and a safe arrival drink poured without delay. I love staying here.

friendly and clean

Really nice since the refurb, hadn't been yet and was very pleasantly surprised. Lovely place, comfy beds, and quiet.

Returning customers to this property. It’s good value for what it is and great for a stop over before an early ferry.
