Le Mouton Blanc

This property is right on Mont Saint Michel. They provided great communications through the Booking.com app. Parking was easy. At check in, the receptionist spoke English and was very generous in helping me with my French, which I am learning. The room was a short walk up the hill from the reception. Our room was on the 2nd floor which you reach by a winding stairwell. As expected in a medieval building, the room was small by American standards but it was clean and perfectly adequate. The bathroom was surprisingly large with a nice shower. It was also very clean. Our beds were comfortable. We did not use the wifi. Breakfast was included in our rate, which was very reasonable through booking.com. The staff in the breakfast restaurant spoke English and were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast is directly below the reception which is down the Mont on the main street from the actual hotel. Trust me, it's all very easy and they do this so much that you won't have any issues at all. We ate dinner in the restaurant which is in the ground floor of the same building as our room (Le Mouton Blanc). We did not have a reservation but it was off season and had no problem getting a table for two. The food was surprisingly good for a restaurant in a world heritage tourist site. The actual abbey closes at 6 pm so we did the tour in the evening when the crowds had diminished. In the morning, we just washed up, paid for our room and checked out. It was all so very easy. I definitely recommend staying here if you want the full "Mont Saint Michel" experience.

They need a bigger garbage can in the bathroom or maybe a second one in the room. If you have a disability, issues with your knees or feet, you may not want to stay here. In fact, you would have great difficulty touring Mont Saint Michel. Just remember, they started building the Abbey in the 8th century so set your expectations a bit differently and enjoy it.

This hotel is fine considering where it is located. The rooms are small but the size is fine for one night stay. The location is perfect for a visit especially if you arrive in the late afternoon when the crowds are getting much thinner. In this case, you'll have this place to yourself in the evening and can visit the abbey first thing in the morning and leave before all the tourists start to arrive. We had a room in the main building with no view and an air conditioner. Again, this was ok for one night stay in September. We also purchased a dinner which was't special but was ok.

Addition of an air conditioner would be nice.

To stay a night on Le Mont-Saint-Michel is quite a different experience than being a daytime visitor. In the late evening it's getting less busy and the atmosphere is getting more magical. Walking the narrow streets and the Pont Passerelle at night is fantastic. The hotel is in a very good position. We stayed in an annex uphill close to the Abbaye which was perfect for an early-morning visit. The bedroom and the bathroom were tidy and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast buffet offers a fresh start of the day and the hotel staff is superbe.

Breakfast was great. Location: Superb

Directions to the hotel from checkin, but I believe that was more my lack of French than her lack of English. Possibly a map would be helpful.

Our room looked out over the back of the town with a peak of the sea. It was towards the top of the town, so a bit of a walk through the cobblestone streets to arrive but put us at a close vantage to the abbey.

We could hear the restaurant below preparing for the day, and location for breakfast was hard to find and eggs were runny and terrible. This location is not accessible to someone with disabilities.

It was wonderful to stay right on the island. Mornings and late afternoons and evenings are less touristy. We left the island to sightsee the mainland during the day. The island shuttle is super convenient for getting back and forth. gGreat free breakfast!

We stayed on garbage day (Monday) with a window that faced the alley. it was very noisy super early in the morning.

Stayed here for one night in February. Definitely stay on the island overnight. I had the whole place to myself once the sun went down. Location / Check-In: Le Mouton Blanc front desk area was under renovation during my stay so I was sent instructions to check in at another hotel's front desk, which was no issue. There was a brief mix-up with my check-in but the gentleman at the front desk was quick to correct it and send me off to Le Mouton Blanc rooms. Le Mont St Michel is super tiny so there's not much to say about the location other than it's fantastic and (at least in February) super quiet at night. The morning was filled with the sounds of seagulls, which I loved. Visitors to the island tend to arrive around 9:00-10:00 and trickle out en masse by 5PM, leaving a lot of morning and evening/night time just to people who are staying on the island. I was pretty much the only one walking around for a few hours during those times and was able to grab photos and videos without large crowds of people around. Room: Room was great. I had a great window view of some buildings with the beach in the backdrop. Never heard any of the neighbors or anyone else moving up and down the stairs or hallway. The room was very clean - no bugs, no hair, or anything like that. Great hotel bathroom, comfy beds. Breakfast: The included breakfast is buffet style at Restaurant Creperie Bar, only open to folks with a hotel room. It had all the basics; pastries, coffee, fruits, meats, scrambled eggs (French style), cheese, loaves of bread, yogurt, orange juice. A standard French breakfast. There aren't many places on the island to grab breakfast so options are limited.

Nothing, was all great.

Communications were clear. Parking, trolley, check in location, room location- all went well. Rooms were upgraded- not sure why. Rooms with nice view to Bay. Dining on second level- rooms above. Reserved and paid ahead for dinner and breakfast. Both meals were good. Rooms were nice with extra bed on loft above. Prices were higher (but reasonable) than other places we stayed in Normandy that were not one-of-a-kind. No crowds in the evening, night and morning. Abbey tour was worth the queue, wait and crowd. Great place to stay on an amazing, historic, and memorable island.

No issues.

It was clean and comfortable even the building is off course very old. It was nice and interesting experience to stay a night in the Mont Saint Michel island.

I had to check in the different location (at Les Terrasses Pouland). The workers of the restaurant in the ground level didn’t know well about the hotel above them. I walked two round trips between this hotel and the check in hotel among crowds. Also, the ground level restaurant entrance door is hard to open, so I used the side door.

Very glad we stayed at Mont Saint Michel for a night. It was quite an experience which started with our arrival coinciding with a high tide which blocked access to the island for about an hour. This made our arrival very late - which was no problem. We located the hotel and figured out how to check-in. The rooms are small (as expected) and very clean. Breakfast was good and the 11.30pm checkout time allowed for some sightseeing before the island filled up with day trippers.

The sign which is outside for late arrivals is pretty confusing. Luckily another guest came by and showed us where to go to collect the key - not sure I ever would have found it on my own in the dark.
