Restaurant Hotel Didier Méril

Stayed two nights with breakfast each morning and dinner one night. Room 6 was an attic room with a great view across the bay. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom marvellous use of space and an outstanding shower. Breakfasts were plentiful but perhaps not for the calorie conscious. However great launch pad for much dog walking in Dinard, Saint Malo and Cancale. Our meal on the Wednesday night was superb and fun to read the menu from an I-pad. We chose the two different gourmet menus, one of us had carpaccio and then the beef and the other had beef cheek followed by the veal. Both of us had the cheese from the magnificent cheese trolley and then the pear and almond dessert. We chose a couple of Languedoc wines that were both excellent and very good value, as many of the wines from there are. Finally the young serving staff were very enthusiastic, pleasant and knowledgeable. It was a great evening overlooking the Baie de Prieure

“Good location and breakfast - overall not a great hotel !”

Liked · The location is good with views over the bay. Breakfast is outstanding as you would expect for a "restaurant with rooms". A huge buffet choice with fresh juice, many cakes etc. Disliked · Wifi is a disgrace; very slow until it gave up totally at 10pm Room 4 is a mess - tidy and large… more

Liked · The location is good with views over the bay. Breakfast is outstanding as you would expect for a "restaurant with rooms". A huge buffet choice with fresh juice, many cakes etc. Disliked · Wifi is a disgrace; very slow until it gave up totally at 10pm Room 4 is a mess - tidy and large enough but a melange of styles, tiny bathroom with annoying step and chicane to enter. Bare Fridge sits on the floor -coffee machine in top; on another counter, is the Kettle and so on. Beware that other rooms on the 1st floor at least are very small and one has no view. Parking is a problem. There are plenty of free public spaces outside but they are always full and you have to be lucky with someone leaving. We were but others seemed to be waiting ages. They offer a €35 Valet service. We thought we had booked diner ( one of the reasons to choose this hotel) but on arrival they denied any booking and the small dining room was of course full. They said they sent out confirmations of bookings... No effort to suggest an alternative for diner.

“Let us control the AC!!!!!”

My husband and I took a two vacation along the Normandy coast. Our last night was in Dinard and we stayed at this hotel.

My husband and I took a two vacation along the Normandy coast. Our last night was in Dinard and we stayed at this hotel. Let me start by saying the restaurant was amazing, the food and service so good. The staff are all very friendly and hard-working and accommodating. The reason I gave the low score is because I had a terrible night sleep. In Europe hotel owners insist on keeping the air conditioning at around 72 to 73° Fahrenheit which is fine for the daytime but it’s torture at night. and even then it’s only a trickle of cold air coming out. I know the air conditioning programmed this way and hotel employees have to pretend like they don’t know how to turn it down but it’s awful. If you want Americans to spend their money here you gotta turn the AC down to 68°F at least at night. During the day we don’t need it. I’m not gonna stay at this hotel again and I’m not gonna recommend it either for this reason.

“Average hotel with great restaurant and beautiful view”

We stayed in room 6 for 1 night on 31st August (2 adults and a 16 years old) What we like: Fantastic view of the Prieuré beach. Very helpful and friendly staff. Public car park in front of hotel.

We stayed in room 6 for 1 night on 31st August (2 adults and a 16 years old) What we like: Fantastic view of the Prieuré beach. Very helpful and friendly staff. Public car park in front of hotel. Magimix coffee machine in room. What we like less: Room looks dated and tatty (damaged furniture, strange half size wardrobe…). Small bathroom but with good shower. Only one very flat pillow per person (had to fold my pillow in half!). Sofa bed mattress very thin and you could feel the springs. Expensive continental breakfast at 18 euros. I felt that was overpriced for a few mini pastries, bread and cakes. The stairs can be a bit treacherous with suitcases. We paid nearly £200 for the room and an additional 54 euros for breakfast. All I can say is that I had higher expectations at that price level.
