They charged our credit card even though we called to cancel because of a medical emergency, only a few hours after we originally made a reservation. No consideration at all. Based on the reviews, I think this hotel will grab customers any which way they can.

Very rundown hotel. Reasonably clean but the bed was so old and lumpy it was the worst I have ever experienced. Advertised facilities were not available, no bar, balcony or seaview even though we paid extra and they ran out of food at breakfast. Very difficult access up steep staircase. I would never stay here again, couldn't wait to leave!

The Alpha Ocean is quite basic and far from the historical part of Saint Malo but is convenient as a stopover before catching the morning ferry and is right by the beach. The personnel is friendly and parking is free on the street. On the minus side I've seen better breakfasts for 8 euro and the rooms are not that... More

The hotel is right on the beach, but far from Intra Muros. You can drive there, or even take the bus. However, the location and great view from our room could not make for all the other issues we found during our stay. We had two rooms, one facing the beach, sunny but small, the other facing the street, larger,... More

The hotel was easy to find and literally right on the beach! Located in the Rochebonne area, Alpha Ocean was the perfect place to stay for us, a young couple on vacation. The Madame was wonderfully kind and hospitable, and her husband could be seen around during the mornings when helping with breakfast. Simple but satisfying breakfast, clean rooms and... More

I have read on this site some very sharp criticisms (athough they're quote old). We must have stayed in a different hotel then! Yes, the noise isolation between rooms are not those of a four star hotel. Apart from that, how refreshing to stay in a hotel managed by their owners, wishing to please their clients, as opposed to all... More

They should pull this one down and build a new hotel........it was disgusting............have never stayed in worse, the children asked if we could sleep in the car! The star rating in France seems to very unreliable.
