Good value for money, very basic, I wouldn't bother with the breakfast as it is not that good - very basic.

They gave me a bottom floor handicapped room in the rear with no curtains. The only reason they dont get the lowest grade is that the front desk girl was nice. Half the tv channels also stopped coming in. You may get the same treatment. Are you willing to chance it? Many other coices.

Dear Mr, We are sorry to hear your disappointment, the bathroom in the room is indeed made to be able to welcome handicaped guests, cause we are willing to welcome everyone. But it was never aim to cause you any arm. There is electric curtains in the room, we are sorry we didn't get the chance to help you with that. Hoping to see you an other time anyway. King Regards.

Wife and I both loved this hotel including the very small elevator, the narrow hallways and the room was just adorable. It was everything we heard of small town France, loved it.

Very nice quite hard to practice your French as everybody wants to try their English, excellent restaurants very close to the hotel and the maritime. Museum is well worth the effort. I would recommend this hotel

convenient location, lovely hotel
We came to Brest for a few days to attend a friend's wedding. Since we weren't going to stay long, we chose Hotel Abalys simply for the price and the location convenient to the train station. But we were pleasantly surprised by the lovely room, the friendly and helpful staff, and the excellent breakfast buffet featuring Breton specialties (8.50), which really helped out out when we had to rush off.

Nice hotel in Brest close to the train station
The first time I stayed in this hotel was 15 years ago. At the time, I thought it was a nice, quiet hotel, close to the city centre and the train station. The hotel has been upgraded with individual computers available in the rooms. The room my husband and I stayed was nice and tidy; several foreign channels were available on TV which was handy as my husband does not speak French. There is a car park opposite the hotel. Staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitively recommend this hotel.

Is there a rating higher than "outstanding"?
This has got to be the best hotel I've stayed in. The staff were incredibly helpful, the room was perfect - large, clean, light and airy, windows that actually open, total soundproofing so no street noise, nor noise from neighbouring rooms, and the most comfortable beds... The price was very reasonable, the breakfasts had a really good selection of food, it was close to everything and I would go back and stay there in an instant. I highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful stay at the Abalys Hotel
Great hotel! Fanny (spelling?) from the reception was very welcoming and nice. She was able to give my sister and I a room upgrade and the room was absolutely amazing! Large bed, large room, large windows and large bathroom! plenty of room, we were very spoiled! great location, walking distance to all restaurants and shops. parking was a bit of a challenge but we managed. I am very satisfied with our stay at this hotel! Thank you!

Best hotel I've been to for ages.....
The standard rooms have computers with internet access as well as TV. The en suite bath and shower were very good and always hot water available. The room was clean and fresh, the staff were courteous and helpfull and it was a pleasure to be there. I could not believe how cheap it was and it was excellent value for money. I would not hesitate to come back again..... A real find.

Great hotel for couples/business travellers
Coul not fault the staff, especially Anthony who spoke excellent English. He recommended other places to visit and restaurants to use. It felt like we were staying at a freinds house rather than a hotel and we were made to feel very welcome. The only negative (and a small one) is that the hotel is a little dated but very clean and comfortable and there was a decent selection of food at breakfast.

Great night stay on a weekend break
Hotel was very easy to find. Public parking right opposite the hotel. Very friendly lady on reception. Room was lovely, at the front of the hotel. Two big windows with a sea view. Everything you could need in the room, English TV, hair dryer, tea/coffee. Location was excellent, walked to the bars and restaurants in the evening. Didn't have breakfast as we had to leave early to get back to Roscoff. Great room for €62.

Not bad for a one day stay
Room was extremely small. To make it worse, the lift to the room on the 3rd floor was not working. Breakfast spread was austere. However the staff was polite but, communication in spoken English was their bete noire.

Friendly, quiet hotel
I have stayed here 2 nights a year for several years. The staff is friendly, helpful and go out of their way to make one comfortable. Yes, the room is European smallish, but has a big window and a sliding storm window that opens, shower/tub, and free WiFi with keyboard in the room. The staff is happy to print your boarding pass if you check in online. Hotel Abalys is located across from Kennedy Park and parking - the staff will explain how to manage the timing of ticket purchase to keep the cost very low. The train station is just down the street where you can catch a shuttle to the airport. It is an easy walk to the art museum, Rue de Siam and the office of tourism. The breakfast is very good but not included. The bar is not open to the public. There are several good restaurants very close by.

Very quiet with helpful staff
Very convenient location for the train station and centre of town, but very quiet still. Bathroom was a little cramped, and some of the decor looking a bit tired, but kept very clean. Despite my lack of French, staff were very pleasant and helpful

Not bad
The rooms are small, but this is to be expected. Not bad for a two star hotel. My hairdryer did not work and complained but this was not resolved. The 8 Euro breakfast was not bad - initially I thought it was expensive but when you go to Paris then you will experience what expensive feels like (my hotel there wanted to charge 19 Euro for breakfast)

This place was perfect. Front desk staff was the most helpful person ever, spoke english, and had great suggestions as to things to do around Brest. Located right by the train station and a short walk to the centre of the city, and to the harbour area.

Great location, quiet
Great location, 5 min to the railway station and to city buses. Quite old building but very clean, rooms are really quiet even if you're on the street side (two set of windows). Furniture and bathroom looks awkward but it's OK if you're not picky. The breakfast is really, really good, with local pastries and fresh crepes !!
