Hotel Brit Le Branhoc - Auray Golfe du Morbihan Bretagne

Très bon séjour Merci

We stayed here in 2011, and liked the area, the hotel and its hosts (Thierry & Catherine) so we decided to return in 2012 to further explore the Morbihan area. What makes this hotel special is a combination of the hospitality of the owners, the quiet location with free car parking together with the proximity to St.Goustan for restaurants in the evening. We stayed in #19 which was one of the larger rooms, tastefully decorated and had a room safe which was very useful. Continental breakfast was served in a nautical-themed room which comprised primarily of meats and cheeses together with the usual bread/brioche selection. Some guests requested boiled eggs every day, and these were readily provided. Most of the guests when we were there were either French, Dutch or German. Thierry speaks predominantly French, whilst Catherine speaks a little English. A good excuse to brush up on one’s French and try to blend in with the locals!! St.Goustan is a picturesque and lively place in the evening with several good venues to eat – crêperie Saint-Sauveur and Bara Crêpes were the two that we frequented. Would strongly recommend both of them for quality, service and overall ambience. The walk to St.Goustan is about 10-15 minutes from the hotel, but one evening Thierry showed us a short cut via a path, and even lent us a torch for the evening. There is also a Carrefour hypermarché 5 minutes drive from the hotel which is ideal for those forgotten essentials as well for cheap fuel. So much to do and see in the area – highly recommend days out to Josselin, Rochefort-en-Terre and Vannes to name just a few of the nearby locations. Visiting the nearby islands in the Gulf of Morbihan (Ile aux Moines) by boat was an enjoyable experience. Thierry booked the reservation for us, leaving from Locmariaquer, although in retrospect departing from Vannes might have been an easier choice. Several firms operate these trips but Navix appear to have much bigger boats.

Hôtel très sympathique et très agréable. Très bonne surprise. J’y ai passé 4 nuits reposantes. Petit déjeuner très correct. On s’y sent bien. J’y retournerai sans hésitation. Il est possible de manger dans les environs sans avoir à prendre la voiture.
