Fabulous for fans of hotels with excellent bedding, a beautiful heated swimming pool, a "to die for" breakfast buffet.

Dinner is a real gastronomic experience - delicious seafood, steak and lamb and lovely touches like vegetable tart, apricot crumble and the very lightest soufflé.

The breakfast gateau pistache was so good, I went looking for a recipe to make at home - sure enough they’ve posted it on their blog!

but wished we had stayed at La Disirade for our entire trip. We went back to have breakfast there (best on the island!)

Great rooms, comfortable beds, a perfect host and services as well as an excellent breakfast and a marvellous restaurant. Perfection!

Breakfast is a real treat with a selection of fresh homemade cakes, pastries and yoghurts.

Breakfast is a standout, with a range of savoury and sweet local snacks.

If only all hotels were like this - exactly the right balance between homely comfort and delicious luxury.

Vast, excellent breakfast, enough for the whole day.

The service is lovely, the rooms and whole place is clean and well looked after, the breakfast is locally produced food and seems to just keep coming :) .

A lovely friendly happy hotel, beautifully presented rooms, top location, delicious dinner and owners who are genuine and make the effort to say hello and take the time to talk.

Breakfast and dinner are of superior quality, and then there is the island.

The breakfasts taken outside on sunny days were memorable.

Spa is spotless (great hammam and sauna), breakfast is fabulous, and the rooms very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful place, relaxing environment, fantastic service, fabulous breakfast and mainly a great team.

What makes it worth then is the total of everything: exceptional staff who help you get the best out of the island, the fresh flowers on the tables, the delicious breakfast/brunch, the books and guides, magazines, chess set, puzzles laid out for evenings.

When we arrived in the room, we were surprised that there was no tea bag with the kettle, also surprised that there was not a balcony because given the price paid per night we expected a more upscale offer,
the products offered in the bathroom with little choice,
reusable flip flops still wet when we arrived,
a suspicious stain on our pillow,
we had gone to the reception not to file a complaint

I had left a bag on the bus and she phoned the company immediately, without being asked.

We’ve just stayed 5 wonderful nights at this lovely quiet hotel.

The hotel is beautiful, very quiet, very relaxing and well equipped with swimming pool and sauna.

This is the place for a quiet and relaxing escape.

Rooms are cozy, quiet and very clean, with decor matching the blues and greens of the island. I’m not sure I’ve ever had the occasion to say this in a review,

The location is at the edge of a small village and very quiet.

And savor the country quiet and the black skies at night.

Lovely, quiet and really clean rooms, managed by a friendly staff that really cares about your well being.

Excellent hotel, very quiet and peaceful.

Belle Isle is a super place to go, quiet, not much traffic, some great beaches and walks, and with some interesting places to visit.

Meals were amazing and room very homely and comfy.

This was the second time we have stayed at this wonderful hotel on Belle-Ile-en-Mer enjoying a full week of walking and fantastic food.

Beautiful hotel, welcoming staff, outstanding food - all evidence of the owners’ genuine love and care for Belle Ile and what they do.

When my kids were ages 4-12, I was able to send them to the restaurant for dinner by themselves, where they sampled a combination of a kids menu and, with Pierre's urging, sampled more exotic fare, like . fish.

The A la Carte restaurant must be out of this world.

Gourmet food in high class accommodation in an excellent location and very accommodating staff.

A beautiful hotel with a fine restaurant.

The restaurant is fantastic, the best meal I have had in a restaurant for many years.

The food in the restaurant was excellent.

Our children loved it, dinner in the restuarant in the evening was really convienent, and also supremely tasty.

The on site restaurant is fantastic, local produce cooked extremely well and to a very high standard.

Definitely eat in the hotel restaurant which is on the opposite side of the road.

the main roads  are narrow and drivers ignore speed limits invariably, luckily they are introducing a mobile radar on the island which should calm things up )  ( hotel bicycles are not of the greatest quality

Extremely pretty, enjoyed the pool and spa facilities.

Spa is simple, unaffected and great for relaxing - blissful massages!

The pool area and spa (with a jacuzzi), as well as the many sun beds dotted around the garden are perfect for relaxing with a book.

The service is impeccable, the food is great, the rooms are nicely decorated and the spa and outdoor/pool area are inviting.

Our room was clean and spacious, the hotel has an immaculate spa and outdoor hot-tub, and the atmosphere is friendly and relaxing.

Our cottage, spa and gourmet restaurant were in the middle of pastureland, half hour walk to the stunning cliffs.

Great bar with super deck made a great place to chill after daly hikes.

2. the Bar - we returned our cocktails which were undrinkable.

We ate at the bar some delicious club sandwich.

This was a bad start to what was otherwise an enjoyable  stay: the food at both breakfast and dinner was excellent and of particular note was the friendly cheerful and efficient staff throughout the hotel from chamber maid to breakfast staff to dinner waiters and waitresses .

The scenic location and the great walks along the coast helped us to burn the calories we collected during the fabulous breakfast buffet (the local caramel and local pastries were divine) .

For our 1st stay in Belle Ile, we chose this hotel,
nice welcome from Dominique the manager, we slept in a suite with a sea view, every morning when we opened our curtains it was a nice show and a beautiful day began,
the catering was very good from breakfast to dinner with a lot of choice and 2 restaurants,
very good massages for my wife and nice jogging for me every morning to discover this beautiful island,
change of scenery

The restaurants at the hotel are also for kids, and the breakfast is amazing!

delicious, especially the crème de caramel au beurre salé.

Most of the Thalasso I have visited lately already  have integrated light 400-600 calorie 3 course options into their menus (that taste delicious by the way).

Breakfast is massive and delicious, and our  evening meal at thier restaurant was memorable.

You have to decide between buffet or the menu.

Breakfast was superb and dinners were quite good.

The breakfast is good (specially the sea food buffet),

Local deserts which were delicious and good cheese too.

- Fantastic view, from the room, from the breakfast terrace and from the dinner terrace
- Good infrastructure (outdoor pool, indoor pool, well-equipped gym, rental bikes including e-bikes etc.)

but they impose a five night minimum and insisted they would charge us.

As we had to keep the windows open and our room was just above the breakfast terrace (also used in the evening for the buffet dinner), we were ultimately denied of the absolute peace and quiteness we were expecting
- On departure there was a mistake on the bill (laundry service charged twice)

None of these issues in isolation would have stopped us from giving the top rating to Castel Clara,

Food excellent at gastronomic restaurant,

but the seafood platters offered on the deck in the restaurant were really excellent.

Excellent view, the staff is really nice and the restaurant is of really high quality.

Absolutely fantastic view and dinner venue, exquisite wine cellar, very friendly and service minded staff.

However, the room was right above one of its restaurants.

This one proudly announces that it's diners are between 800 and 1200 calories.

Few alternatives restaurants are within miles.

Beautiful location, excellent staff and restaurant,

We found the gastronomique restaurant to be very fine.

Everything was great, the food ( especially the Cafe Clara formula at 42€ !)

but we paid top dollar and therefore I would've expected a tad bit more.

Our booking made in May for a room with sea view was made in January .

The weather was great and we could dine with our dog on the terrace which was giving us a fantastic view over the little bay.

The room was really nice, and the kids had their own room upstairs (both of our rooms had ocean view).

The view from Castel Clara was definitely amazing

Rest, thalassa-spa/massages, hikes or bicycling around the Island or simply sitting enjoying the sea view.

We were very lucky with the weather, big blue sky and expansive sea view.

Nor did it allow for enough time to simple sit on the comfortable deck and just absorb the beautiful view and warm atmosphere.

An oasis with big trees and with an interesting view.

Very quiet place with a view on one the beautiful Belle Ile island.

The best is the location: get a room with an ocean view.

Incredible views, gourmet dining, first class spa, cycling, and hiking.

Internet is extremely slow,  not what we expected in a Relais et Chateau 4 star facility.

but there are no ties for the drapes to prevent them from blowing out the windows in the wind.

though the weather was not always ideal, simply looking out of our window at Port Gopher was a delight.

We didn’t try the evening buffet as not really fans of seafood

If you can get in ,le cardinal is a great deal..  with a wonderful fish buffet.

The hotel itself was very clean, all the facilities required, excellent pool and hot-tub (overlooking sea) and the restaurant had fantastic buffet dinner - it was not a luxury stay,

There is also  a "famous seafood buffet" (32 Euro) which justified its reputation.

where each evening Le Cardinal rolls out an amazing seafood buffet, open to guests (29 euros, including wine) and locals (32).

Breakfasts are included and you'll find a ton of variety,

Breakfast is excellent, local products, pancake original, (this is  Bretagne).

Perched up on a hill over looking sea - this standard hotel has a great location in that you great views of the sea, whilst in a short distance to the beautiful port of Sauzon.

The hiking trail is very close and the port is a 5 minute walk.

Pros: amazing position, just a five-minute stroll to the port, where sailing boats are constantly drifting in and out, and to lots of lovely restaurants (like La Phare).

All in all, would highly recommend this place as it’s only a short walk to the small village of Sauzon where there is a wide choice of eateries.

Staff: fantastic in the evening restaurant, charming and hands-on,

You can help yourself to oysters, shrimp, escargot, and fill carafes of red, white, and rose wine.

Dinner with Sea fruits buffet is excellent and price competitive.

Access to a little cove to swim in the sea.

Our room was clean, spacious enough and the view from our terrasse had superb views of the sea.

Hell - Upon arrival we were given room 248, with seaview.

Belle Ile is a stunning destination, and Le Cardinal proved an inspired choice of hotel.

This hotel has one very strong playing card: its stunning location on a hill overlooking the charming port of Sauzon and a lovely pool from where to contemplate those views.

It's set on a cliff overlooking the Atlantic.

Very friendly hosts and excellent breakfast!

As written by others, the breakfasts were delicious -- always a real treat for the weary!

Perrine and Nicolas were wonderful hosts, treating us to delicious breakfasts every morning, giving advice on places to go and booking restaurants for us.

It is rare that you get to spend time at a place so beautifully situated that provides excellent service, accommodations, breakfast and knowledgable recommendations for meals and what to see, The couple that own this B&B show their pride in everything they do and are delightful.

Breakfast was delicious with mostly local or homemade products.

The breakfast was delicious with homemade cakes and fresh fruit juice, different every day.

Nicolas and Perrine have renovated the property with great taste and charm and are such extraordinary hosts.The  breakfasts were magnificent.

Elegant, soothing, relaxing, great location, great decoration, great breakfast.

The garden was a paradise and we had the chance to eat outside for breakfast.

We feasted in the many restaurants selected for us by our hosts.

but 5 minutes walk to all the restaurants and the centre of Sauzon with Fish restaurants, crêperie and an exclusive gourmet restaurant.

Good breakfast The restaurant was very popular For diner so I strongly suggest to book it days in advance.

but we could enjoy the swimming pool, a nice diner, a great breakfast and we found all the staff very helpful and smiling.

Wonderful walks along the shore and spectacular sceneries a few minutes away from the hotel. A bit pricey, especially the breakfast (not included in the room rate.  )

but they serve coffee like a little breakfast (two cakes added) and that was just what we needed.

Breakfast was delicious and not to be missed.

along with the delicious food and wonderful atmosphere at the local creperie.

Our room was fine, albeit a little small, and the breakfasts were good quality .

The view from the breakfast room and the terrace was fabulous, and the staff was friendly and helpful.

but there is also a great little creperie you can walk to from the hotel, plus a lovely little store which has cheese, fruit, croissants, yogurt, baguettes, etc.

They kindly drove us to the car hire company and helped with arrangements.

although with a car, everything is only 15mins away.

They will take you to their lot so you can pick up your car.

We hired a car for the day (highly recommend esp.

Upon disembarkation, we quickly saw the place where we had reserved, through the Internet, a small car so that we could comfortably explore the island.

The staff were always so helpful (even picking the 5 of us up at the ferry since we came in late and didn't have a car) and the rooms were clean, large and bright with gorgeous views of the "wild coast".

Better invest that money in sea food, which is of course awesome over here.

The dining room was a spectacular location, with an option of the terrasse, the food was excellent, the service was relaxed

I loved this hotel and the food they served at their restaurant.

They drove me to and from the ferry port.The restaurant was nice, and I had special local menu.

Restaurant is the star of this hotel with sweeping ocean views.

but the restaurant is without fault and the staff is very friendly for the most part.

Walking, cycling, running, excellent cuisine.

At the restaurant we had the best d'Agneau ever tasted!

Liked the terrace with unique view (if weather permits) for lunch or sunset drinks, food incl .service above expectation, friendly and very helpful staff, very calm, rooms to the back are however small

Excellent restaurant (half board very convenient).

The restaurant food is quite good BUT if you are staying at the hotel you have no selection in the menu.

For me, my vegetarian meals were very good, can see the chef really made effort to make them tasty while looking good at the same time,

We also had an evening meal which was just superb, we would definately like to go back for a long weekend.

We were never told by reception to book dinner in advance either.

Thankfully one night when the meal was something that I do not eat I had reservations elsewhere.

Given the incredible view I was only in the room to sleep and shower.

My other complaint is the water temperature.

However, water pressure in our bathroom was too low (especially at the sink) and both temperature and pressure kept changing in the shower (mostly in the evening: when the hotel seemed to run out of hot water?).

The restaurant is both fairly priced for excellent food and the lovely views .

Very great view and above all very friendly and competent staff.

Perfect to relax, fresh air, windy, great view, friendly staff, excellent location.

The view to all side of the hotel was once in a lifetime (ocean, coast and lighthouse).

The view is fantastisk, service is great and flavuored with personality touch.

We got a beautiful room overlooking the sea.

Spectacular views from the "wild coast", just 50 meters from the hotel.

Swimming pool filled with sea water is heated and sheltered from the road.

Pay extra and ask for a room upstairs and as far from the kitchen/restaurant as possible so you can savor the spectacular view when you're inside as well as outside.

The views are spectacular and the island is a really lovely place to spend a couple of days.

The hotel website is accurate in the views of the hotel.

Make sure to get a room overlooking the ocean.Staff was friendly and helpful.

After 15 minutes, we seated ourselves as opposed to standing in a hallway as breakfast servers passed by us.

Breakfast can be had outdoors, complete with gulls ready to snatch your jambon if you're not careful.

Excellent breakfast (€18 - so I suppose it should be).

We enjoyed fresh buffet style breakfasts on the terrace each morning, and sampled the delights of local restaurants at night.

The bar and breakfast terrace was really nice and of course has a seaview.
