The location and price were both very good and the people who worked there were very nice. The rooms were clean though small and we had a comfortable sleep here. It said on our reservation that the front desk was open until midnight and to let them know if we would be later then that. We arrived at 10 pm... More

I am reluctant to criticise. It is a 2-star and generally you get what you pay for. We booked a double room for 2 nights, but the room was so small we could barely get our luggage in. You needed matchstick-thin legs to walk around the bed, and even then they would rub together. The bells might be an issue... More

We stopped overnight en route from Calais to Brittany and proved to be an inspired choice. Location was ideal in the middle of town, the family room for 4 of us (comprising 3 generations) was adequate with flat screen TV in each room and a better than expected shower. Bonus was that we stayed Friday night and had time to... More

My wife and I stayed at the Balzac Hotel in early June. Very charming hotel. Great breakfast. Great location. Wonderful owners. Very affordable. Free parking in a nearby garage.

The main drawback with this place is the location, because although it's situated in the middle of the old part of town (v. handy), there is a clock with bell that chimes EVERY 15 minutes throughout the night (not...

Owners very welcoming and friendly, we were only non French residents. Good English spoken. Rooms a bit small. Location great right on main street.

After driving through Normandy for the day we were looking forward to a comfy bed and a cosy room, with Balzac hotel we got both. Although the rooms are tiny they are great value for money and all you need if you are just passing through. The bed was comfy, the room cosy, warm, clean and tidy. Although I was... More

We were very fortunate to find this charming town and hotel on our way from the Loire Valley to Mont St. Michel. We wanted to be close to Mont St. Michel to get an early start and this was the perfect spot. Easy 45 minute drive. Laurence and Bernard are the new owners of Balzac Hotel and were great hosts....
