Le Grand Hotel De L’Europe The pros. Centrally located south of the viaduct on a circular loop in the traffic flow. No parking although we parked briefly on a wide pavement outside the main entrance to unload. We then parked in a free carpark approximately 250 yards along the Rue de Brest - easily found. Take the one way system around the block heading south (away from the viaduct) past the ‘Terrasse’ a green restaurant on the right and at the traffic lights take the RH lane and 2nd right into Rue de Brest. The car park is gained by turning into the Intermarche’ on the left and heading to the free park off to the right. It is big. Watch out for spaces nearer the Intermarche but don’t park in their car park as it is paying. Reception was pleasant and speedy. The room we had was a good size with plenty of wardrobe space and a large shower room. Tea & Coffee facilities (more on this later), a bottle of water. Not a lot of hangers so take extra. The lift is slow, and you have to keep pressing the button but large enough for 2 people and luggage. The breakfast was good, no complaints. The cons The hotel is looking tired but for a short stay is reasonable. DO NOT have a room overlooking the main internal courtyard. It has the extractor from the next door restaurant that is so noisy you can’t open the window. Even then it is too noisy to sleep and at weekends it is still going close to midnight. During the week up to 11 pm. Tea & coffee. You are limited to 2 sachets of milk, 2 coffee and 2 Earl Grey and 2 fruit teas. Fortunately, we always take extra tea bags, but the milk was a problem. We wish we had palmed some milk off the ferry when using the restaurant on board. Morlaix is a great place to explore. We obtained the heritage walks from the Tourist Information. Overall, in 1 day we did 7 miles around the town and climbed 34 stories (ramps and steps). The route up and along the viaduct is over 80 steps plus 20+ down to walk along. The route directions were poor at the other end, but we managed. Some lovely old buildings, narrow streets and history. Eating. Directly opposite the hotel entrance is a narrow street – Rue Ange de Guernisac - with restaurants and creperies (see below). We tried the Italian, the little restaurant next door (highly recommended), the creperie (for lunch) and the upper restaurant that offers Tapas. The Terrasse restaurant on the other side of the town is pricy. Creperie Duo D’en Bas, Bar de Viarmes, L’a Resto D’A Cote Pizzeria, Mad Tapas Apart from the Galette Complete for lunch, we mainly ate fish and can highly recommend them all (even the Pizzaria for Moules). Other towns worth visiting are Huelgoat for the 1mile long valley of rocks, Guingamp and Lannion. The latter 2 towns have much to explore. And in conclusion, if travelling overnight from Plymouth and want breakfast, a short drive on the way to Morlaix is St Paul de Leon. In the main square is a Salon de Tea that does an excellent breakfast

Great staff, friendly welcome from all staff. Room changed without fuss due to an accessibility issue. Nice view of the Viaduct from the room, with very comfortable bed. Decor is quite tired in areas, but the hotel is undergoing a revamp this winter! Breakfast room is spectacular with high ceilings & beautiful light from tall windows. Breakfast itself was a fresh & plentiful buffet, which was great value at €9.90! Woudl definitely stay here again.

Definitely recommend this Hotel, the location is very central but surprisingly quiet,the service we received was excellent,we were with a large party of cyclists and the bikes were all stored securely overnight including 2 tandems! breakfast was fantastic! Our room were of a very comfortable size with a large en-suite, I can definitely recommend this Hotel if you are staying in Morlaix
