Beautiful location & wonderful use of an old historic building. Our room was large & well equipped. Breakfast was very good. We were very disappointed that the pool was out of use during a warm spell in September. The hotel was also hosting a function while we were staying so it was not possible to book dinner which was also disappointing as we had planned to eat there.

“Enjoyable stay, really loved the provided Nuxe shower gel.”

We enjoyed our stay here despite travel time to the hotel being much longer than given on AA Route Finder France. We arrived hot and tired.

We enjoyed our stay here despite travel time to the hotel being much longer than given on AA Route Finder France. We arrived hot and tired. Road access was barred from the postcode given by Brittany Ferries, so we had to first find the hotel on foot in order to get directions to the free car park. We were fortunate enough to get the last spot. Despite this rocky start we felt very well looked after. The weather was in our favour and we spent some time sunbathing poolside, we walked into town and beside the estuary, (perhaps not the prettiest of views) but the Corderoi Royale was most impressive. We loved the Nuxe honey shower gel provided in the shower, a real highlight. We had two comfortable, quiet nights here. We visited on a weekend and the hotel was extremely busy so our future trips to France and Spain will be aimed at midweek breaks

“Good hotel”

Would have given 5* but on arrival we discovered that the aircon was faulty and it was 33°C+.

Would have given 5* but on arrival we discovered that the aircon was faulty and it was 33°C+. After a long drive through Brittany and the Loire Valley, we were hot and exhausted and very unamused to be told of the issue. The reception could have displayed more sympathy, and offering to move us to a budget hotel in their chain around the corner was not really a sensible option for a long stay customer. This was not just an overnight stop and I had booked a 4*! In the end, however, it transpired that the aircon in our room came on in the evening and we were able to sleep very well. For the following days, it was switched off during the day whilst the engineers worked on the system but back on late afternoon which was absolutely fine. The reception needed better information about which rooms were affected by the serious system fault and which weren’t! The staff are all very welcoming and helpful. The restaurant menu is limited, presumably they don’t expect longer stay customers (we are staying 6 nights) but well prepared and tasty. The wine menu is reasonably priced per bottle. The room is comfortable but has a slightly freaky large portrait of a famous admiral overlooking the bed and what appears to be a colonial era plantation view behind the bed (inappropriate now??). The lighting in the room needs to be brighter as we can hardly see in the wardrobe area. The only real criticism is that the toilet is separate from the bathroom in a tiny space akin to a public toilet. There’s little room to get in and close the door behind you (ours doesn’t actually lock but not a major issue). Overall, we would thoroughly recommend - the ambience is restful and classy. The breakfast choice is amazing with lovely staff. The town is pretty with lots of history. Worth a visit.

“Impressive Building and Great Room”

Very nice hotel in a great spot on the river, well kept gardens and an outside pool. The reality is better than the pictures! Helpful reception and bar staff. Food in the restaurant was reasonable but the service could have been better.
