Best Western Hotel Alexandra

This hotel is in a good location, a nice walk to the walled town centre. It is a small hotel with small rooms and small bathroom and the elevator was annoyingly noisy with a repetitive clanging noise. The hallways and room decor are dated and tired looking. However, the staff were very friendly, parking on-site is available at an additional cost and it is clean. The seafront location is lovely, though we did not have an ocean front room. less

Very nice small hotel on the beach within walking distance of the walled city. Great location, very nice staff. The rooms are smallish but many have a view to the ocean. The rooms also have an electric pot for hot water and internet. I really enjoyed my stay and plan to return. less

The major reason of choosing this hotel is its proximity to the sea. Better choose a seaview room since that’s a hotel feature anyway. Some rooms have an open balcony while some don’t , like mine. But since it’s winter, having a closed balcony is better. However, they didn’t check beforehand if my room window was functioning properly. I wanted to open it but it was stuck. The staff also wasn’t able to open it and they needed to replace a part of it but would take more time. I was offered a similar room at another floor however, it was too late and a hassle to arrange things again into the luggage and transfer. Breakfast was good especially the crepe and other pastries. There were only a couple of hot food choices like eggs and sausage. There was no variety and you’ll eat the same food everyday. It’s around 20-30 minutes walk to the Intramuros and around 20 minutes to St. Malo SNCF station. There’s also a bus stop 5 minutes walk away on the main road. The main road also has Carrefour and other restaurants . It’s more on the residential and relaxing part compared to Intramuros area so it depends on what you really want during your stay. less

This hotel is right on the promenade, it’s very quiet at night, only the waves can be heard. The room in itself was quite large with a bow window, the view is really amazing. The room furniture could be improved as they seem a bit outdated. A special word about all the staff from the reception to housekeeping they were all very friendly and helpful!!! There is a parking on the spot which is a great plus in busy season, it is probably a good idea to reserve ahead of time as the parking is quite small. Would certainly recommend this hotel. less

To stay 4 nights in Saint-Malo is serious business, there are hundreds of options to choose from so it's always good to look for advice on the Internet. My wife had booked this place in advance, but you never know what to expect, especially when you travel with children and the four of you need to fit in one single room. To my surprise, the room was really large, it features a terrace, air conditioning, mini-bar, extra pillows, complete bathroom, excellent reading lights and good quality beds. As we arrived I immediately noticed we would face some trouble using the TV: the Philips model in the room was old and the generic remote control would not allow to choose the image source. After a friendly conversation with the lady at the desk the next morning, we had the TV changed for a better, more modern one, so we could enjoy HDMI or USB connections to watch movies. The free Wi-Fi is excellent and stable. The hotel is located on the beach promenade, so the location is good and it's not complicated to park in the surroundings. However if you want to go Intra-muros, you need to walk half an hour (or take the car, it's full of parkings there). The breakfast is very good: you can squeeze some oranges with a juice machine, but you can also have the non-fresh one anytime. Nice fresh French bread, croissants, yogurts, some cheese, eggs... Overall very good experience, will not disappoint you! less
