Escale Oceania Lorient

Contrary to the recent reviews, we are delighted with our weekend at this hotel. Ideally located to visit Lorient. Pleasant and clean room. Generous and fresh breakfast. Perfect welcome. Nothing to say, just thank you.

Very disappointed by my stay. The room was old and looked nothing like the pictures presented on the site, moreover, dust musts this is under the beds. Outdated, poorly maintained bathroom, and no traces of toilet paper rolls: only small loose pieces, impractical and frankly unhygienic. The icing on the cake, a beautiful yellow spot discovered on the sheet... For 160 € a night with the parking, it is clearly abused. The quality/price ratio is non-existent and the advertised standing is far from respected.

We stayed three nights. The hotel is located in the central part of Lorient yet in a quiet street. It is within walking distance of public transport, shops and restaurants, and also the hotel has its own secured parking available at EUR 10/day. Also fresh and clean drinking water was available at the lobby. The hotel is not large and the front desk is not open all day. We received good information by mail with a code to get into the hotel and it worked out fine. The hotel has no a/c in the rooms and no elevator, which may be a problem if you have much baggage. Our room was spacious and clean and with a good bed and coffee machine. The TV set was good, but only French channels were available, and we missed a news channel in English. The friendly staff at the front desk also took care of breakfast, which was ok without being great. The coffee was very good, but even though we are not late risers some basic items were not available and apparently not being restocked. One morning we had to share the remaining croissant, which I do not find ok. Also we noted that housekeeping was rather uneven.
