Hôtel au Marais

This small quaint family run hotel is ideally situated on a canal waterfront in a central location in Coulon, with close proximity to restaurants and shops. The room we stayed in was beautifully presented, full of character and appropriately furnished. In addition, it was spacious (including the bathroom), extremely clean, had a comfortable bed and had a window looking out over the canal. Free Wi-Fi was available and worked well. A more than adequate continental style breakfast was provided which comprised of yoghurts, cereals, fresh bread / pastries, ham, cheeses, juice and hot beverages. If driving, there are several parking spaces on the roadway at the hotel, however, if taken, there is parking available at the nearby town square car park.

We arrived on a scorching hot day and to minimise the heat, the shutters on the windows in our room had been closed and the room was in darkness, but still very hot. Later in the evening when we returned after a wonderful afternoon/evening in Coulon - on the canal, at the museum, listening to live music in the town square and having a lovely dinner at Le Central Restaurant - it was a joy to find that our room had a wonderful outlook, directly above the canal and that a cool breeze was making the room very comfortable. This is an unpretentious hotel with a relaxed, family atmosphere and pleasant decor, all well suited to its location. A simple continental breakfast was included in our booking fee. The room and bathroom were very clean and we were more than happy with our choice of hotel. If we have an opportunity to return to Coulon, we would certainly rebook this accommodation.
