1 night stopover which I was glad about, the twinroom was very small for 1 person never mind 2.
An average good hotel, with a simply astonishing breakfast.
Never had a breakfast like that one. You can skip all your other meals and jump directly to the next breakfast, the day after.
Oh my god, what a breakfast!
This hotel is 5 minutes drive from the airport, there is no bus there & we were charged 17 Euros by taxi (standard rate). There is nothing close by to the hotel apart from a few other hotels although the bus stop for the town is just over the road, to walk will take you 55 minutes to the town centre/Brest castle/Harbour. The hotel has 60 rooms which are very small, we had a double just a bed,wardrobe (4 hangers!) ,small desk,en-suite toilet & shower,we had to sit on the bed as we could not get past each other in the room!! It was very clean & tidy & the staff were very friendly. Only 2 of them could speak 'some' English which did cause some problems as we only have a few French words between us....Rooms have heaters & Sat' T.V (all in French.......) The reception was not open 24 hours as advertised (it shut at 11pm every night) & on our last day it actually shut at 12 noon !! & was not re-opening until 5pm, meaning we could not leave our cases there for a few hours as we would have liked.) (The main door to the hotel is locked, you are given a card to get in with) (It shut because it was a holiday May 8th ........?? ) The breakfast was a cold buffet, quite a good selection, French bread/Crossant/Cereal/Drinks which was all very nice. There is no restaurant but you can order drinks throughout the day. If we returned to Brest again without a car we would look for a hotel in the town, near the attractions.
