"Room was excellent and would stay here again in a heartbeat. What you probably don't know about Mont St. Michel is that you can't even get to the village where the hotels are at without a GATE CODE...it's very protected from the masses. The hotel will send the GATE CODE a few days prior to your stay via email, so make sure you look that up before pulling your car near the hotel. We had a panic attack at the gate not realizing we needed a code...thank heaven my email worked and it pulled right up. The little village where the hotels are (and Mercure is the best one), gets quiet, but the village has a shuttle that runs on a loop until 11 in the summer...so you can get all the quiet pictures you want after the masses return on their tour busses. This hotel was clean and breakfast was perfect and necessary before grabbing the shuttle (breakfast opened at 6:45am and the first shuttle is at 7:30am). Do your mental health a favor and stay at this hotel if you are visiting "the rock." Book the earliest tour at the Abbey as well so you can see it without all the people...staying here and getting an early tour is the way to go."
