No Tissues in the room - I had a cold

We did not stay in the hotel at all (see below)

We arrived and were told there was no place to store our bicycles. The receptionist was very rude and told us that the bikes would have to be left out on the street overnight.When he insulted us by to comparing our situation to that of 'animals' we left and stayed in another nearby hotel. There was no offer of any refund from Hotel Sables. This was our first experience of any hotel being unable to store our 2 bicycles on our 11 days cycling the Velodysee and we were extremely disappointed with the lack of empathy or any offer of a refund.

This is a fantastic location overlooking the harbour. There are lots of restaurants and bars in walking distance. It is only less than 10 minutes walk to the magnificent beach of Sable d'olonne where you can walk for miles. As the room is over a restaurant and in the heart of the eating area, it is a bit noisy for a while if your window is open. However, this is the only negative thing I would have to say. Very friendly and helpful staff and a nice breakfast.

Lovely staff. Very welcoming. Hotel right near main sights. Loads of restaurants nearby, hard to choose from.

Up and down a few stairs for breakfast and to access lift.

We have stayed here several times before, love the location. We like a room with a view of the port, also this seemed to be a larger room which was lovely. Staff are very helpful. Hotel is amongst the restaurants on the port which is great. Parking in the town can be difficult but luckily we know where to park. We will definitely stay here again.

Excellent breakfast, good location, nice harbour view

Location perfect as we wanted to be at the harbour beside restaurants. Parking was handy in local underground car park as it is a difficult area to find parking in. Classic French breakfast in small breakfast room at rear of property was €8 each. We ate at their restaurant and it was excellent! Busy place but staff superb. Great value for our one night stay in a great location.

I would book a room not beside the lift next time. Not a major problem.

The room was very nice. well presented and clean. Fabulous view overlooking the port.The location could not have been better.The staff at the hotel very welcoming and friendly.

Location was in the center

Very loud en noisy.No aircoNo fridgeNo coffee, thee or water

Booked a room with a view of the port which I was pleased with. Room was lovely and seemed to be newly decorated. Have stayed at this hotel several times and this was the best room I have had. Some rooms had been a bit tired. Location is great on the port with bars and restaurants just outside. We will stay here again.

The only problem we had was the parking. When we arrived the road around the port was closed so we couldn't drop off the luggage. Apparently there is a code to allow cars through but we didn't have it. We had to park a long way from the hotel and carry the luggage to the hotel over a few days. Parking can be an issue in the town but this was a shame. Leaving the hotel wasn't so difficult as the road was open. This wouldn't put us off going back.

Interesting views over the port and proximity to the beach.

New (to us) bar next door was very noisy up till 02:00.

Location

Small room. No airconditioning and bathroom outdated but fully functional.

Great location by the quayside, comfortable room and bed, great shower

Parking issues with unhelpful staff, took 2 X phone call to resolve No Aircon and room very warm ?

The location is excellent, on the quayside and within easy walking distance of the marina, restaurants, town centre and beach.

The room was basic with no shaver socket in the bathroom and only one (each) very thin pillow. There was no tea or coffee making facility in the room.

Location with interest of the working port on one side and good sea swimming the other. Good restaurants within minutes walk by quayside. Well kept streets.

A little noisy when cars passed below our window.

Great location next to harbour, beach only five minutes walk away.

Our room overlooking harbour had great views however all the restaurant patrons outside the hotel were very noisy and quietness did not arrive until the early hours of the morning, also we were there at a very hot time and there is no air conditioning or even a fan.

The location is great right on the port, we have stayed here before and this is just what we wanted. It can be a little noisy but it is right by the restaurants.

Bathroom needed updating but overall we were very happy.

The staff was very kind, nice location, very good for us

No airco

Breakfast was superb with excellent service. The hotel staff were all welcoming and accommodating, especially the owner and the girl who served breakfast.

There was nothing I didn'tlike, it was all first class.

Great location. Hotel was fairly basic but clean and friendly. A little bit noisy in the late evening but could be expected because of the location.
