La Vieille Auberge

Grande Rue, 50170 Le Mont Saint Michel, France –

Mont Saint Michel Abbey: less than a minute away! (100 feet by foot)

It's awesome staying on MSM, hard to beat the views out the room window or walking out the hotel entrance. The hotel is actually quite a ways up to the abbey, you can go up a back route that's much quieter. The room was actually pretty decently sized for France, no complaints there. Staff were very friendly and the check in process was not at all complicated for us (despite some of the other reviews). I just went up to the reception at another hotel (owned by the same group I guess) and the girl there checked us in and walked us over to our building. Note: we found the parking lots for the coaches very confusing and hard to navigate. It's worth doing a bit of research on that part before you go.

Sarah, Canada

This hotel is actually three or more properties within MSM, so our four rooms were some distance apart. They are expensive, but it's MSM so you pay for the unique ambiance of staying on the island when the hordes of day-trippers have gone home. Rooms were comfy and clean.

Toby, United Kingdom

We liked the view from the room. At night it was quiet.

Peter, United States of America

The hotel was accurately described in travel / online materials. Parking was remote but not a problem after being explained. Mont-Saint-Michel is one of a kind! Well worth the visit.

Jonathan, United States of America

Amazing location. The modern room in an ancient location was so interesting!

Christie, United States of America

The room was small but cozy with incredible view and it worse every cent!

Tatyana, United States of America

Our room was further up the Mont than the reception/restaurant in an old stone building with a balcony overlooking the bay and the rooftops of the village- very picturesque!

Debra, United States of America

La Vieille Auberge was very nice and had a great view. The room was recently updated and the bathroom was one of the best we experienced on our trip. We requested a quiet room and the one we were given met this expectation.

Eric, United States of America

This is a great place to stay if you want to stay on the island.

Paula, United States of America

Located Inside the wall, marvelous view from our window at night. Not fancy but comfortable and honest room. The host (Flavie) was very kind explaining everything for us, also providing us a spare bed for our child. Note that there is no elevator in the hotels inside the wall, so be prepared to climb some steps specially if you have infants.

Great location on the Mont St Michel. Expensive for what you get but you are paying for location. You have to check in at Hotel St Pierre (during winter anyway) which they never told me. Would have been nice to know this before wandering around the Mont for ages. Once I found the correct place the staff were great and very helpful.

Several things: 1.) There was no drinking water! All the stores on the island closed at 5pm. Only one store sold drinking water. There was no drinking water available in the room. Ridiculous! 2.) Dirty... the toilet leaked at the base all over the floor and the ceiling in the bathroom was coated in dirt. Gross! 3.) No amenities what so ever. No coffee maker, no soap, no shampoo, (did I mention no drinking water), nothing!!! 4.) The towels in the room were wet when we got there. Gross! 5.) The heaters were worthless. We froze all night. 6.) It was December, and there was NOTHING open!! The main road was under renovation. It was pointless to stay on the island.... save your self from staving, thirsting to death and having to stay in a dirty room, and stay on shore until the renovation is complete.
It was on Mont Saint Michel, that’s about it!

The Main Street is torn up and inaccessible which makes getting to the hotel much more difficult, the temporary lobby is super far from the rooms so that any issues or questions are difficult to deal with. The room lacked in some amenities but essentials were there. Neither one of us could get the wifi to work, even the hotel lobby was having internet issues. The restaurant was closed due to the construction, breakfast was at the distant temporary lobby.
The room was quite spacious, the staff were very nice and helpful. The location is worth the extra steps.

Bed seems falling apart, no water at all to provide for drink except from the tape!!! I felt a bit sick when I was there and requested for hot water to make a cup of tea or so but that’s not possible unless I have to walk for 10 mins to get it from the restaurant (even I felt sick) while the staffs in the restaurant present VERY VERY impolite!!! I would suggest your hotel to offer a kettle or a bottle of water to the guest , that’s is normally a decent hotel will do!!!! Very disappointed!!!
Not much really

It was total confusion finding the room. The address I was given was not the room, or hotel, but a restaurant. And the restaurant was closed. So I called them, and a woman met me and walked me way up the hill, to a room with a great view. But it was confusing, and I couldn't remember how to get back there. They should have it more well organized. And where to have breakfast was another confusing adventure, it was down the hill at yet another restaurant.

We believed we were staying in the hotel on the Main Street when in fact our room was a short walk away in a different property that was classed as an ‘annex’ of the hotel. The room was clean but very basic. Overall we didn’t feel it was ‘value for money’.
We ate at the restaurant for lunch. It was really busy, so at times service was a little slow but this wasn’t a problem for us. The quality and quantity of the food was good.

We arrived at 8:00pm. We had told them we would be late. When we got there the Hotel was closed, dark and no one there. They failed to tell us that during the slow season they close the hotel and book guest into one of there other two hotels. We had no idea where to go or who to talk to. Thankfully a kind waiter in a restaurant up the street told us to go to the Saint Pierre Hotel and they would help us. Once we got there they seemed shocked to see us and then after review of their records realized we re in fact guests. They should have let us know in advance what to expect.
Nice location. Adequate room
