"Hotel is conveniently located near ferry port in a nice area within walking distance to intra- muros.We stayed 5 nights in April and used it as a base for seeing St. Malo and the surrounding area. Only downside of our trip was that the outside pool was not open, as we would have enjoyed having a dip after spending the day sightseeing in the sun."

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Saint-Malo

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Saint-Malo is during January, February, and November, when hotel prices are typically lower. For those looking to explore the city's rich history and cultural landmarks, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days would be ideal. This timeframe allows visitors to enjoy sightseeing, stroll along the marina, relax on the beaches, and even take ferry trips to nearby islands. With budget-friendly options available, Saint-Malo offers great value for money for travellers keen on experiencing its historical and cultural attractions.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover potential last-minute deals to Saint-Malo, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals section on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches. You could also enable email alerts or push notifications to stay updated on flash sales and special promotions, allowing you to take advantage of great savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool within the app enables you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're informed about availability and price drops, making your last-minute getaway even more appealing.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could potentially help you save on your stay in a hotel in Saint-Malo. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
