Prévithal Hôtel de la Baie Thalasso & Spa Marin

.

When we arrived at this hotel, it was very unclear where we were meant to go or park, there seems to be two entrances, one to main reception and one to the car park, but it is not well lit and we drove round for a bit trying to work out what to do so I went in to reception, where I then waited for ten minutes as there was no one around, at about 6pm, so not exactly late. A lady finally arrived, and checked us in. We asked about parking and were told we could use the public car park out the back, which is on the seafront, or use there private gated car park which she gave us a code for. So we drove back up the road to their car park, got in and parked up, to find that there isn’t a pedestrian exit! It was drizzly, very dark, and we had to push past a wet bush to exit. The room was ok, nothing special, and the ‘beach front’ is the other side of a large car park. The cleaners only flick the hoover round, no refill of tea/coffee etc and the breakfast option was extremely expensive so we didn’t bother. The Thalasso Spa was lovely, with plenty of options to keep you busy for an hour or so, but everyone walks through the hotel dripping wet so lifts and floors are slippery, and there were a lot of kids, and a lot of people not wearing caps if no staff were around, so it was a bit of a free for all! We stay in many hotels in France every year, this one is just expensive for what it is, will not return. Needs new carpets and modernising.

It was really nice. The thalasdo pool area is lovely. The down side is if you dontbprebook you may not get in the restaurant and have to go into Granville to eat

Love the ocean view but wish I had it from my room.

Lovely hotel and great location. Food choice could have been better.

Expensive for what it is. Hydro jets are not strong enough to do a massage (it’s more like a relaxing sensation), and on the second day of our stay, the jets were not working. On the bright side, one pool is very cold and the other hot, so it was a good experience The hamman experience was weird. It smelled strange inside which made it difficult to use, but the sauna was good! We picked the double room seaside with a terrace. We found the room a bit old, the bed was very comfortable but the furniture had seen better days. The whole room was not dirty, but the walls had some stains (hence the 3 stars)
