Saw this hotel in Sawdays "Special Places to Stay" and expected something, well special! Instead we got a small room, with a balcony that you could not have swung a cat on even if you had dared stand on it (look from outside and you will see what i mean!). Room smelt of stale smoke, the carpet was not clean... more

After reading a poor review of our family suite we felt a bit apprehensive but the Hotel Alba turned out to be ideal for us. The two bedrooms were clean and attractively decorated with a spotless bathroom and separate toilet between them. We were able to park just outside our own private entrance which proved really convenient. The terrace was... more

We staid in the hotel just after sailing from Porstmouth and our 6 months old baby was extremly sick.

This hotel was a terrible disappointment. I had booked the "Family Room" 5 months in advance after having seen the hotel in Alastair Sawdays "Special Places to Stay-French Hotels". When we arrived we were directed to our room which was essentially in the basement and accessible only by going outside the hotel. It was two bedrooms connected by a short... more

We stayed at the Hotel Alba for one night as we were sailing the next morning from St Malo to the UK. In summary, we didn't feel that the hotel was worth the 150 euros per night. The room itself was very small, had mould growing up the walls, broken lampshades and a bedspread which had definitely seen better days.... more

We visited St Malo over the May Bankholiday weekend 24 through 27 May 2007 and stayed at the Hotel Alba which is situated a good 20 minute walk from the old town. The walk is along the esplande and is flat with views of the beach and sea all the way. The Alba is quite a small hotel with friendly... more

Hotel Alba seems from a Somerset Maugham short story - a residential hotel of 14 rooms facing Le Plage - gin & tonics in the afternoon as the waves crash almost against the full picture window - cognacs & coffee on the terrace before the the walk for "moules & chips" for lunch - impossibly small bedrooms and tiny showers... more
