Peace and quiet.

Great spot to access the alignments/standing stones. A bit off the beaten path but not hats where the stones are. Room was spacious and equipped well. Wi-Fi had no internet and cellular was too weak to load data. Breakfast great. Hostess and dog super fun.

Un havre de paix

Avis aux voyageurs : l’hôtel a changé de propriétaire et à été magnifiquement rénové. Séverine et Gwenaël nous ont réservé un accueil extraordinaire. Les chambres sont agréables, et la piscine superbement entretenue ne donne qu’une envie : en profiter ! Bref un havre de paix dans une zone très riche de découvertes. L’hôtel organise également des séminaires et je songe sérieusement à y en organiser un. Bravo et merci encore pour tout.

Charmant et authentique

Hôtel familial très sympathique, un peu vieillissant. Tout est propre et bien tenu, l'équipe aux petits soins. Cependant, ne pas s'attendre à une déco ultra moderne et la machine à café où vous choisirez entre Café au lait, latte macchiato et cappuccino. Nous, on a en revanche apprécié l'accueil chaleureux, les bons conseils, la clé de la chambre "mécanique" et l'électricité dans la chambre même en notre absence, les croissants et le jus d'orange qui nous attendaient chaque matin sur la table et nous ont évité de nous bousculer autour d'un buffet petit-déjeuner dès le réveil. Un hôtel à l'ancienne très agréable où on dort au calme de la campagne. Le top: la chambre avec mezzanine pour les enfants et le balcon - on ne se sent pas à l'étroit en famille.

Séjour très agréable

Petit hôtel simple, propre avec une excellente literie. Accueil très chaleureux par la propriétaire dont on sent qu'elle aime son métier, étant aux petits soins pour ses clients. Piscine agréable pendant les fortes chaleurs que nous avons eues. Environnement calme (situé entre Plouharnel et Carnac).

La salle de bains était en fait un cabinet de toilette avec porte coulissante, la profondeur étant égale à la dimension d'un ordinaire receveur de douche.wc, lavabo, douche alignés. Il a fallu ajouter 20 € par jour pour une salle de bains d'une superficie, sans plus.

Séjour hôtel hippocampe à Plouharnel

Séjour 2 nuits en septembre 2019. Hotel bien situé à mi-chemin entre quiberon au sud à la Trinité sur mer à l'Est et d'autres petits village à l'Ouest. Chambre confortable avec terrasse prix intéressant sauf bémol sur le petit déjeuner un peu cher à 12€ par personne. Ce dernier mérite plutôt un prix entre 8 et 9€. Accueil très sympathique de la propriétaire qui connaît bien sa Region et n'hésite pas à vous donner qqes recommandations sur les sites incontournables à visiter. Si nous devions retourner dans la région, nous n'hésiterions pas à retourner dans ce petit hotel familial. Je recommande également le restaurant l'hippocampe qui se trouve en face de l'hôtel tenu par 2 nouveaux jeunes propriétaires dont la table gastronomique est un vrai régal.
