The hotel is well located at the entrance to the city of Mont Saint-Michel, but don't expect to see a surprising view of either the bay or the abbey. There are the roofs of the buildings that surround it that block the view.
The room is quite spacious and well appointed. The bathroom has a corner bath, but no window. The beds and furniture are clean, but I was unpleasantly surprised to see the state of the window sills and frames blackened with dirt. I wanted to put my phone there to make a video of the sunrise but I was quickly challenged by the state of the windows.
The hotel does not have an elevator and the stairs are quite narrow. Therefore, not suitable for the elderly or people with reduced mobility.
There was enough choice for breakfast and the girl who served us was very nice. There were just some products (pain au chocolat, for example) that were not replenished. It was not yet the end of the service, however.
We wanted to eat at the restaurant but the reservation is full. Surprisingly, passing there at the start and middle of service, a lot of tables are empty but we were refused access and sent to the restaurant of the nearby inn.
The staff was overworked and so difficult to find when needed. It took 15 minutes to find the actual hotel because they closed its primary entrance and redirected entry through one of its partner hotels. After walking around and around and being ignored by a number of the staff, we then had to wait for over 40 minutes for someone to appear at reception to check in. To be fair, once the staff did show up, there were several nice individuals, but I think they were extremely overworked. Because it was so late we opted to eat in one of their restaurants and had the same issue, waiting almost 40 minutes to order and then even longer for the meal to be served. When finally we checked in, to get to the room, one had take our bags we had just brought up back down the stairs, leave the building, mount a second larger stair, walk around the back of the building, go down two flights of stairs, enter another door and then up two more flights of very narrow, circular stairs with all our bags. We were offered no help from the staff. I'm pretty sturdy but still, this was a lot of work. If you're older, I'd say this is just not possible. When we got to the room, it was very tight. I like small spaces, but this was extreme, especially for the price. For my wife to get to the bathroom at night, it was impossible to do without bumping into me and waking me up. The seagulls roosting on the roof right outside the window were insane and did not stop squalling until 2-3 in the morning, and then up again around 5 in the morning. I could have tolerated some of this, but for the price, it was just too much. St. Michel is a spectacular place but so thick with tourists it becomes almost impossible to appreciate. The food is horrible everywhere and one can tell everyone who works there is just tired of dealing with tourists. I would not recommend staying on the island at all, but for anyone who really wants to give it a go I would say so not even think of staying more than 1 day.
La posizione ovviamente è fantastica, abbiamo potuto camminare la sera e passeggiare all'alba in una Mont Saint-Michel praticamente deserta e tutto questo non ha prezzo! L'albergo invece è quasi scandaloso per la cifra richiesta: una camera piccola e spartana, arredi vecchi. Il phon a muro era rotto e quando abbiamo richiesto, con i capelli bagnati, un phon sostitutivo ci è stato risposto che non ne avevano! Inaccettabile per un hotel da € 135 a notte! Colazione inclusa allo storico Mere Poulard lì vicino (con le foto di tutti i più importanti personaggi del Novecento appese alle pareti!); ma anche lì sono glorie passate: sia la colazione che il servizio non sono memorabili.

Three hotels were opened on the island. After all, it was an island. It was empty like a ghost castle at night. The hotel service was quite good. It is acceptable to have a slightly higher consumption in the hotel.
I think it's a room like a Japanese business hotel, so I like it, but it was clean and I was satisfied.
The only disappointment was that the reception, breakfast restaurant and rooms were all in separate buildings and had to walk a little. And the building with the room is very hard to understand. I was explained in English but I couldn't understand. At the time of my check-in, another customer (French) was just trying to check in, and he said, `` Because we are checking in now, let's go to the room building '', so we went together Was. I was able to go to the room immediately because they were there, but if I were alone, I might not have been able to get to the room.
I had such a serious thought, but the room was beautiful and there was no problem after check-in. Except that the shower water pressure was weak.
We stayed at the island of Mont-Saint-Michel cheaply and were quite satisfied.
Finally, the location of the reception is just up the stairs in front of the famous omelet store (pictured).
And stairs (photo) to go to the room building.
The breakfast restaurant faces the street so you can see it right away.
Appears to be the only 4 star hotel in the hotel row in Mont St. Michel. The rooms have been renovated and are large enough by European standards and are comfortable Check in and checkout is efficient especially if you did it online, staff are friendly and helpful but lacking a smile to make it better. Hotel does not have an elevator, hence you need to haul your suitcases up the steps if you end up on 1st floor Breakfast is served in Le Pre Sale restaurant next door and for dinner reservations are strongly recommended
Viewed a number of hotels on Le Mont Saint Michel (MSM) and plumped for this one, but the rooms we had, were a little cramped (okay, we are on a small island as such, so didn't expect anything spectacular !) and noted the distances involved getting to the hotel from the car park, but the rooms are further up from the actual La Vielle Auberge itself and a bit of a trek especially for the not-so fit people in life ! The dinner we booked and breakfast were both served in their sister hotel, Auberge Saint Pierre and the dinner was good and the breakfast, self-serve but adequate. Whilst lovely to stay on the isle, I wouldn't necessarily actually stay on the isle but it is worth the visit, as such an imposing and impressive place.
I hesitated to book at Le Relais Saint-Michel based on the prior reviews, but we really enjoyed our stay here! They emailed us a code to access the gate to the hotel guest parking lot prior to arrival, and we just drove up to the gate, punched in the code, and drove right up to the hotel. The rooms were not yet ready for us at around 4pm (a negative), so we left our bags with the hotel and ventured out to Mont Saint Michel. This hotel is the closest to the monument, and the bus stop is right in front of the parking lot, so it was a matter of minutes before we were at the foot of the Mont. We returned to the hotel after exploring for a few hours, and the check-in was fast and easy, and we had a recently renovated smaller room (101) with a nice outdoor terrace with a panoramic view of Mont Saint-Michel, and a much larger recently renovated room (201) with an oblique rooftop view, although still very nice. We found some minor issues with cleanliness (the prior guest's facial wash was not removed from the room), but otherwise the room was clean, comfortable, and just perfect for an overnight stay. The mont was not very illuminated at night (we were there a few days before the noctural illuminations), but it was lovely to gaze at it at night and in the morning when there were no people about, just goats. Would definitely stay here again if in the area - our friends stayed down the road at another hotel within the gates and I definitely think this was a superior experience.
We stayed 1 nt on 9/11/23 & the weather had just started to cool down. Room was hot upon arrival but propping our room door open & opening the window across from it & I also went down the hall & opened the building window..finally cooled down. We ended up sleeping well & could leave window open bc it was super quiet outside. Location: 1) the free shuttle directly in front 2) immediately next door(same parking lot) has Brioche Doree for take away sandwiches, croissants, etc 0830-1730 & a gift shop/huge general store open til 7p & even had some basic food & alcohol. Vending machine outside with food/drink 3) also in same parking lot is their restaurant where they can give you ice! (Get the “ice bag” from the Front desk first) Hotel: had 3 tables with chairs in the lobby, a picnic table outside, & an unlocked breakfast room that had a microwave in it. Room: only liquid soap in dispensers at sink & in shower as the toiletries Being that we were able to sleep well, I gave 4 & it was MUCH cheaper than other places near by(I booked in adv on their site), otherwise if during hot summers: 2 or 3 Tip: better yet, time your arrival to do MSM as a day trip (allow 2-3 hr) & then drive on to another town & sleep there
Clean and tidy hotel and good value. My only criticism would be the lack of choice for breakfast, just a very basic continental breakfast but they didn’t even have jam or marmalade available. But the venue is next to the courtesy bus to Mount-St-Michel which is very good.
