DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL.
Arrived to find the building looking near derelict with paper stuck over the inside of the ground floor windows, no pavement outside the reception door (just mud), the reception door was locked but with a notice saying that reception was at a different hotel. This hotel was just around the corner but only found that out after putting the address into my sat nav.
Went to this other hotel where they eventually confirmed our booking and told us our room was in the Hotel de France but parking and restaurant was at this hotel. We were given a key and a code to enter the building. After dragging our cases from one place to the other and through the mud, got into the building. The reception desk was there but the place was deserted and did not appear to have any staff present at all.
The room had no heating and the hot tap and shower had to be run for a good 10 minutes before the water started to get warm. I appreciate that hotels usually fit a mattress protector to the beds but this one felt like it was made from a creased plastic sheet so sleeping on it was like sleeping on an uninflated air bad.
The following morning was awoken by the sound of construction machinery and upon attempting to exit the building found workmen digging up the kerbstones and the remains of the mud outside the only exit door.
This hotel should not be taking bookings while in this state and, with the complete lack of any staff on site, I suspect it may even be illegal.
Outside looked like an abandoned property
Parking was in one place reception in another,
When I arrived asked to see property to see if it really was a hotel.
Inside was ok, no shower curtain still under a state of remodel.
Wouldn’t recommend or stay here again
Staff was super kind, gave restaurant recommendations, room was clean and as expected.

Hotel de france was under renovation. We were given a room in Hotel Arina. Good size room for family, clean and spacious. There was no aircondition in the room. It was a very warm day. It was noisy when the window was open. There is a rail track runing next to the hotel. There was no walkin shower, but shower handle in the bath tub but with no atrached shower curtain to the bath tub. It is more of a traditional home style rather than a modern hotel.
We had an amazing time at this comfortable hotel. We traveled as family four, the space was clean and well maintained. We appreciated the two spacious bedrooms, and spacious living areas. We would stay here again, one block away were tons of restaurants and a grocery. The breakfast served at the hotel was delicious.
It was all about location for us. Unfortunately, the hotel is located right by the train tracks. It was okay for noise until about five in the morning. The biggest issue was the bathroom smelled horrible. Musty and moldy, we had to go out and buy air freshener and a candle to kill the smell.
I booked for De France and and checked in in Ariana Hotel. I guessed they own both.
Only thing is 1 min walk to Pontorson- Mont St michel train station
We opted for this particular property for our overnight stay, which met our expectations. Our room spanned two floors, with the second floor featuring two beds, but just one bed would have given us more space, which would have been perfect for our needs. The convenience, cleanliness, and normal-equipped amenities made our stay enjoyable.
We were particularly impressed with the friendly and helpful staff. The property's location was near various restaurants and charming neighbouring buildings. Additionally, it was only a swift 2-minute walk from the train station, and the 30-minute bus ride (3E20) to Mt. St Michel made it an ideal choice for travellers on a budget.
Considering all these factors, the pricing was just right for our budget-conscious journey. We had a wonderful experience here and would highly recommend it to fellow travellers.
Excellent location. Quaint hotel and excellent value for money.

Location is safe and close to the railway station. The owner is a nice person. One problem I encounter during my stay at this hotel was no hot water for shower. Please fix this problem.
Thanks
Although we booked the Hotel De France, the Hotel owner asked us to stay at the Hotel Ariane just around the corner which seemed a better prospect at the same price. The bath was small but the room was very cosy and very nice. We had an excellent stay and the Hotel is in an excellent location for the Mont St Michel and the village facilities. We thought that the Continental breakfast was expensive but otherwise a very good place to stay.
There was no AC - but it is understandable since it gets cold during the night. However, I had to leave the window open but it was quite noisy.
There was a huge spider in the room, and I killed it myself but it was a bit traumatic since it was founded on my pillow.
The service was nice.
