One of those Ibis hotels that charges a bit more than the average for the chain - it's next to a 'Thalassotherapie' centre and offers deals for a range of Thalasso treatments. Have stayed at Carnac Plage before, where the Ibis is also dearer than usual, for similar reasons, I think. Room, service and breakfast all good. This was an overnight stop on a long motorcycle journey. A healthy walk along the Boulevard de l'Ocean took me to the resatuarnat 'La Veranda', where, as always, the meal was superb.

We have stayed at money hotels in France and a number of IBIS but the Ibis at La Baule/Pornichet must rate among the best. We have stayed at this hotel 3 times and have come to expect efficient, friendly and helpful staff, yet again we were not disappointed. One of the best 'buffet-style' breakfasts and excellent, good value lunch and dinner menus. The hotel is ideally situated only a short walk from from the town centre and daily market and 80 metres from the beach.

Stayed for 2 nights in mid July 2009 in a suite at 109 Euros per night - the room was large,clean ,quiet and had a big balcony. Bathroom and seperate toilet were spotless.
I would have stayed longer but they were fully booked.
Did not eat here but would still recommend them for a stopover - near the beach and centre of Pornichet. La Baule centre is a 5 minute drive.
Parking is easy in nearby quiet streets although hotel parking is available at a price.
Good value ! Recommended - better than the advertised 2 stars.
