“One of the best restaurants in Brittany”

We have been eating at this restaurant for the last 25 years, whenever we visit Paimpol and despite it having changed ownership during that period, it never fails to impress.

We have been eating at this restaurant for the last 25 years, whenever we visit Paimpol and despite it having changed ownership during that period, it never fails to impress. Today we had lunch, there are a number of menus from the reasonable plat du jour to the most expensive at 54€, which included lobster for the main course. We chose their menu de Breizh at 48€, this was for 3 courses, ( foie gras, veal filet with ris de veau, followed by a white chocolate dessert, with far too many calories), my descriptions do not do justice to the chefs artistry and of course in addition you also get an appetiser with your aperitif, an amusée prior to your starter and chocolates with coffee. As usual the food was beautifully presented and tasted superb, service was excellent and we washed the meal down with a very nice bottle of wine from the Pays du Gard, (46€), wines with the VDPQ designation do represent excellent value for money and la Marne has a good choice on their wine list. We look forward to our next visit.

“Avert good”

We, a mature couple, arrived much earlier than planned, but this did not provide a problem for the hotel or for us. The car park is small, but quite adequate and it gets the car off the street.

We, a mature couple, arrived much earlier than planned, but this did not provide a problem for the hotel or for us. The car park is small, but quite adequate and it gets the car off the street. The exterior of the hotel look somewhat traditional, but the interior is bright, clean and freshly painted. Our room was a reasonable size with a spacious bathroom. This had a large walk-in shower with a range of toiletries provided as well as good quality towels and a hair driver. The breakfast was good value with a great selection of food e.g. Fruit, yoghurts, croissants and breads as well as tea/coffee.

“Good location, good rooms, good food”

Old character building with modern interior situated short walk from the old town and harbour. The hotel has its own excellent restaurant and serves a first class spread for breakfast. With friendly staff, clean, comfortable rooms and its own carpark it comes highly recommended.

“Noisy hotel on a busy road”

The room was spacious and clean with a good modern bathroom.

The room was spacious and clean with a good modern bathroom. The problem was that the hotel is on a busy main road by a roundabout so the noise went on until the small hours of the morning - for instance on the second night there were agricultural heavy vehicles going past after 1.00 am for the best part of an hour. It was hot so there was really no option but to have the window open. We took the buffet breakfast in the hotel both mornings which was pleasant but nothing was replenished so if you missed the croissants... The staff were polite but did not go out of their way to be helpful or friendly
