Reviews of Le Clos Du GALION - Ile de Ré 3 stars

The Manager, Antoinne, was exceptionally helpful.

Curtains not great and let sun in and bedroom Over breakfast room. Not much of a lounge area.

Boutique hotel! It is very pretty and the staff were amazing. The breakfast is expensive at €19e but excellent. I think this should be included in the price of the room which is already at a premium. Ile de re is an expensive destination. For us it was worth it! It is a special experience.

I don’t think the hotel is suited to large groups as this changes the vibe of the hotel. So it’s a bit hit and miss who is there at the time of your visit. Maybe ask. For us a very large party arrived on our second last day and that definitely changed our experience. Also, there are two rooms underneath the breakfast area. I would not advise staying in these. They are v noisy and you have to use shutters for privacy. We had to move and in fairness the hotel facilitated 100%. They were amazing.

1. Location is close to everything you need to enjoy the island 2. Having a pool for a dip 3. Discount on beach bikes 4. The smoothies

1. Stayed in June and the cleaning was great but this time, our first week - it really wasn’t great. 2. No air con 3. The slippery surface of the pool - high risk!! 4. The dirty area of the pool ( hair, dirty drains etc) - this is the reality of people to a degree 5. The sometimes sarcastic front of house manager.

A lovely hotel in the centre of town, lovely room, clean and well equipped. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Nothing

The location on the port, the pool, the confortable beds, the parking

Location The female reception staff The pool went working )

Lack of Management Direction Lack of customer directed focus Some cleaners Safety of ground floor rooms ( the rooms are easily accessible from the street) Lack of attention to detail ( the safe wasn’t working and there is no urgency to fix it) The hotel lacks Umph

Perfect location Lovely rooms Nice staff plus as a bonus under ground parking, which the staff managed to find room for our motorbike

Nothing

The location is just great. The majority of the team are friendly and helpful. Shout out to the young fabulous receptionist with dark long hair - so helpful and efficient. Thank you for being superb!

1. This visit - the housekeeping especially last week was poor. Not properly cleaned. This week was better. Please wipe over the surfaces as they were so dusted as was the floor last week!! 2. Blocked sink . 3. Pool area was VERY slippery - high risk to safety 4. Not cleaned well around the pool and pool drains 5. People saving pool beds and then not using them!!!

Very helpful staff. Great location.

Staff were pleasant and helpful

Room was located on second floor although I requested a ground floor room as I had a baby. Room was also significantly smaller than other rooms. Should be able to settle drink/food bills at the end of the day opposed to having them roll onto your bill.

Lovely pool and restaurant area

Rooms slightly dated - separate toilets from bathroom- no air con

The location and style of the property are excellent, right at the entrance to the town and port- with parking!

We arrived on one of those hot spells this summer so the lack of air conditioning was a challenge but they did have an extra fan so that helped out and we had all the windows and doors open. The breakfast was good but the baked goods were commercial- not what I would expect for this price.

Excellent location, quiet and comfortable

Gorgeous staff

Booked 3 bed room only had camp bed Taught it was pricey for camp bed

Super! Thanks to all the staff

Good small hotel in an excellent location in St.Martin. No air conditioning was a bit frustrating. Breakfast and the small pool was very good.

Few items of pool furniture broken. Bathroom lacked any natural light / ventilation and no air conditioning.

Excellent hotel for a holiday on Ile de Re. Location was ideal.

Everything was just fine.

Excellent location, quiet despite being close to the harbour, reasonably priced on site parking. Given the premium price of accommodation in St Martin-de- Re & the limits a small harbour town has on property size, this hotel is a good option

Peak season premium price. Narrow poolside area. Second floor rooms have a view over the harbour wall; the view is more limited on the lower floors. No on site bar for eveinng drinks although plenty of choices withina few minutes walk
