Very nice three star hotel in Carnac, up on the hill nearby the .. Tumulus. The rooms are nice and clean, albeit a bit pricey. But then everything is expensive in this area. Very good breakfast (we did not have dinner there). The service is very friendly and helpful to find locations or book nice restaurants. We stayed in the... More

Stayed here two nights in late July. Hotel staff was universally friendly, kind and helpful. Our room was fine--not big, but not small, with a spacious bathroom with walk-in shower. The bed was firm; the bedding perfectly fine. Breakfast was excellent in the beautiful dining room-- a buffet with great, fresh bread, good cheese, cereals. fruits and pastries.

As it turned out, we were upgraded to this hotel by the hotel originally booked. For our group of four American ladies, it was a special treat. Rated a Relais de Silence, it was incredibly nice and very quiet, off season, without the spa crowd. i was more than pleased when I opened my window directly onto the Tumulus St.... More

Difficult to reconcile other reviews with our experience. Room was small but OK. Dinner service, with only half a dozen tables occupied and three waiting staff, was unbelievably slow (two and a half hours for four courses). First course was good, the second was utterly bizarre - a "what have we got left in the fridge?" amalgum of ill suited... More

Le Tumulus is in a lovely location - at the foot of a 7000 year old megalithic monument - and everything in the hotel is functioning and lovely. But we found the hotel often to be a bit "too French". For example, we arrived on Sunday at 8.20pm and we had to phone a special phone number, so someone could... More

Nice hotel with a beautiful garden and swimming pool. The rooms and bathrooms are at the 4 stars level. The staff is helpfull, but a bit "cold". All over a good place to stay in Carnac.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The staff were friendly and helpful. The setting suited us well with a distant view of the sea and a marvellous pool. There was plenty of room and the location was quiet. The food was delicious. We ate the table d’hôte menu and were impressed by it. The one drawback was the slow table service,... More

We stayed here overnight on our way back to Roscoff from the Dordogne. We wished we had stayed longer! The location - right next to the Tumulus- was incredible. We booked a package which gave us an upgrade to a premium room with breakfast and dinner included. The room was a reasonable size with a view over the swimming pool... More

If you are going to the south coast of Brittany this is definitely the hotel to stay at. We ate at the hotel restaurant one evening, the meals were fantastic and very reasonably priced. The service was impeccable and friendly, also overlooking the ocean. The room was perfect for sleeping and the typical French buffet breakfast was excellent and plentiful.... More
