Book Marennes-Hiers-Brouage hotels

Great view of the marina

The hotel is in a superb position at the centre of Chatelaillon-Plage. Our Superieure room on the 2nd floor faced the sea and was quiet and comfortable. There is a large public car park about 300m away, or parking in adjacent streets. Parking is free outside July and August. Breakfast was good, with a range of bread, baked goods, savouries, etc., although the fresh fruit selection was uninspired. The carpet in our room was quite marked, but otherwise all was in good condition.

Lovely staff and great location. Our room was large with a balcony and views of the water. The parking is on the street, not part of the hotel.

We were a party of 10 staying for 2 weeks at this property. It was so quiet in the village and the bakery (5 mins along the road) was absolutely fantastic, best bread we had all holiday! The house itself was a great size and we didn’t feel in any way cramped. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well equipped for what we needed. The outdoor eating area with BBQ was brilliant and we used it every day. The pool is fabulous, couldn’t keep us out of it! Having the cover on when we weren’t using it kept it safe for the kids. Since we were travelling from the UK we paid the extra for the linen and towels. This wasn’t made obviously when we booked it but saved us the hassle of bringing our own. You do only get one towel per person and no hand towels so had to buy our own for the kitchen and bathrooms. We also got asked if we wanted to pay the cleaning fee which I assumed was included in the original price. We cleaned ourselves before we left to save paying the extra. The only other point I would like to make is the electric gate for the cars. We were only given one set of keys to open and close the gate which made it difficult when we were all going out separately. Maybe a lockbox on the outside wall would be helpful? Also getting out of the drive was difficult as you can’t see either way up the street so maybe a mirror on the opposite wall would help with that. Otherwise we had a fantastic stay here and would definitely recommend!

Clean . Basic but good

When we arrived at 5.00pm on Sunday afternoon the hotel was deserted. Automatic check-in machine! If someone had been at reception we would have asked to change our room,particularly as the place appeared practically empty, because our shower head bracket was broken so had to be hand held for the entire stay. Also being sited on the 2nd floor was difficult for us as we are both over 70 and have both had hip surgery. We enjoyed our continental breakfast each day and our swim in the nice private pool in the early evenings. Thank you.
