"The shuttle for the Abbey stop right in front of the hotel and just across the road is a good restaurant Le Pré Salé."
"A great location for either walking to Mont Saint Michel or using the free shuttle bus service."
Hotel Vert, Mont-Saint-Michel - A Practical Base
For those seeking a gateway to the iconic Mont-Saint-Michel, Hotel Vert presents itself as a functional, albeit basic, option. Established in 1987, this two-star establishment occupies a strategic position, offering guests a convenient launchpad for exploring the famed tidal island and its surroundings. While it doesn't aim for the heights of luxury, its primary draw lies in its proximity and straightforward approach to hospitality.
Location
Hotel Vert's most compelling asset is its location, placing guests just two kilometers from the majestic Mont Saint-Michel tidal island on the Normandy Coast. It sits in a peaceful, pleasant area, mere steps from the free shuttle service that whisks visitors to the island, making access effortless. A key consideration, however, is the local parking situation: cars exiting the designated parking area within 24 hours will incur additional charges for re-entry, a detail that requires careful planning for extended stays. For those keen on historical exploration beyond the immediate vicinity, sights like Dol Cathedral and St Gervais Basilica are a manageable 25-minute drive away, as are attractions such as Alligator Bay and Mont Michel Abbey.
Style and Character
The hotel's character is best described as utilitarian. The décor leans towards pastel colors, aiming for a home-like feel, though some may find the palette somewhat dated, particularly the older bedspreads with their less-than-inspiring red and gold schemes. The overall impression is one of essential comfort rather than curated design. It's a place that has prioritized functionality over flair, resulting in an atmosphere that is quiet and unassuming, a direct contrast to the dramatic grandeur of its famous neighbor.
Service and Facilities
Hotel Vert operates with a focus on the essentials. A 24-hour reception desk ensures round-the-clock assistance, a boon for travelers arriving at odd hours. Private parking is available, though the associated fees for re-entry within a 24-hour period should be noted. For those needing to stay connected or get some work done, a business center is provided, though it's described as quite rudimentary. An onsite supermarket and souvenir shop add a layer of convenience, offering immediate access to provisions and mementos without needing to venture far.
Rooms
The rooms at Hotel Vert are designed to be functional and comfortable, with pastel-colored schemes intended to evoke a sense of ease. Standard amenities include a private bathroom, fitted with either a bathtub or shower and supplied with complimentary toiletries and a hairdryer. Free Wi-Fi access is provided, alongside a television for in-room entertainment. Some rooms may feature carpeting, a closet, heating, and wake-up services. Reading lamps are often found at the headboards, and select rooms come equipped with items like carpeting, internet access, heating, and a wake-up service, ensuring the bare necessities for a restful stay.
Food and Drink
The hotel's restaurant, La Rotisserie, offers guests the opportunity to sample regional cuisine, providing a convenient dining option directly on the premises. For a more casual experience, the hotel bar, L'Equinoxe, opens onto a private terrace, ideal for a relaxing drink. While the offerings are straightforward, they serve the purpose of providing sustenance and a place to unwind after a day of exploration.
Value for Money
Hotel Vert positions itself as an affordable choice for those prioritizing location and basic comforts. While it doesn't offer the polish or extensive amenities of higher-starred establishments, its rates are generally reflective of its two-star rating and functional approach. The inclusion of essential services like Wi-Fi and private parking (with the caveat on re-entry fees) contributes to its perceived value, especially for budget-conscious travelers focused on experiencing Mont-Saint-Michel.
Accessibility
Information regarding specific accessibility features, such as wheelchair access or adapted rooms, is limited. The hotel provides basic private bathrooms and essential amenities, suggesting a standard level of comfort. Travelers with specific accessibility needs are advised to contact the hotel directly for detailed information to ensure their requirements can be met.
Family-Friendly
While not explicitly marketed as a family resort, Hotel Vert offers a practical base for families visiting Mont-Saint-Michel. The rooms, though modest, can accommodate families, and the proximity to the shuttle service simplifies journeys to the island with children. The onsite shop provides a convenient spot for picking up necessities, and the general quietness of the area can be conducive to a peaceful family stay. Its straightforward nature makes it a fuss-free option for those with younger travelers.
“Hotel Vert stands out as a genuinely affordable option near Mont-Saint-Michel, especially appealing to families. I found the included breakfast, particularly the fresh pastries, a real highlight. Its location right by the bus stop simplifies access to the Mont, making it a practical choice.”
