Valmarin is a nice enough hotel. But the price charged does not match what you should get in terms of quality and basic amenities. The hotel is behind in their maintenance and re-investments to keep up with the need of customers, wear of existing furnishings, etc... And like in so many hotels in France, their internet access is pityful. All... More

We are English and my wife and I stayed recently at this hotel. It was the quietest hotel I have ever stayed in - which suited us fine as we were in a ground floor bedroom, which was initially a worry as we thought it would be noisy but as I mentioned, that was not the case. It was good... More

Overpriced run down hotel, lovely building but shame about the unfriendly staff and dated decor. For the price you'd expect to get more. They even charged us full price for two children's breakfasts even though they were 1 and 3 and only ate a croissant and juice. Will not take alistair sawdays word for it anymore without checking on trip... More

Really old fashioned musty dusty rooms, poor furnishings with dreadful beds, old fashioned grubby bathroom. The worst thing was the noise. The room was stifling so we had to open windows and it is directly on a busy road, very little sleep. They do not quote a rate on the phone and at 152 euros including breakfast I would call... More

We were attracted to this elegant hotel near the Ferry Terminal with its large, quiet garden at the back because I am a light sleeper and can only sleep with a window open. We specifically requested 'a quiet room facing the garden' and this reservation was 'confirmed'. On arrival we were shown to a downstairs room facing the road. When... More

It was a beautiful place and ideal location for the ferry but it was very expensive for what it was compared with other places we stayed. We felt that staff were not as welcoming and helpful as they could be, and facilities in the room were poor (e.g. the TVs didn't work in either of the rooms). Given the price... More

This hotel has so much going for it, but it lets itself down so badly that I can't recommend guests staying here. We spent 525 euros for a 3 night stay in what can best be described as a down-at-heel, tired old hotel that needs better management. Starting with the positives: it is situated in a beautiful location, in an... More

We recently stayed at the Valmarin and enjoyed our stay - the property is about 15 mins walk from St Malo but is in a nice neighbourhood and is extremely quiet at night time. The property itself is beautiful and there is a lovely park at the back. We would say that the rooms are quite tired - our carpet... More

We came upon this 18th century hotel almost in desperation looking for somewhere to stay before catching the early morning ferry home. It is very expensive and breakfast is definitely over priced but the setting is idyllic, very quiet and an amazing atmosphere, just wondering at its long history. Not really mod cons but this difficult to combine with such... More

Lovely, elegant hotel in a quiet area. No problems with service or facilities which were very good. However, the entrance to the gardens and parking area was through electronically operated gates and over a raised area of driveway. Unfortunately the gate mechanism embedded in the drive ripped the exhaust from our car. It was obvious from scratches on the drive... More
