We received a lovely welcome on arrival. We had booked a river view room which had a beautiful outlook. The room was very clean with a good supply of hot water for the shower. Overall we were very comfortable and would definitely stay there again. Ducey is a great little town in a perfect location, handy for touring the area. Its only a 15 minute drive to Mont St Michel and the coast road up to Granville is amazing.
A delightful setting on a river, away from the pressing crowds at Mont Saint Michel. More importantly, the staff are highly efficient and organized, but in the most friendly and helpful way imaginable. Their recommendations for tourist sites and restaurants were first class-nothing was too much trouble for the managers.
The staff were lovely and friendly....chatting about local restaurants and attractions...was surprise to actually see this hotel was exactly like the pictures.....only down side is because it was an old water mill there is lots of water noise so dont let this surprise you or indeed put you off. Its a typical good value clean best Western type hotel....and its ideally located for sightseeing all local attractions only 30 mins to Saint Malo....Ducey is typical very quiet French village only two possible restaurants the main one being in another hotel or a Pizza.....so if you have time go somewhere like Avranches for dinner.( Le Tripot I fully recommend).
After 2 desappointing stays in Paris and one in London, this was a relief to arrive to Le Moulin,
Ducey is a small village close to Mt Saint Michel with somehow reduced commodities (but with a couple of chemists).
Le Moulin has a large private car park just accross the road and although it is not locked, it is still secure. After being attended by a friendly young lady at the reception we were shown our room.
Large by any standard, fairly modern equipement and free Wi-fi would be a quick description. But it is a whole lot more than that. The attitude of the staff is remarkable. They will promply print maps, "google" a place for you, give opinion on how to get the best of your stay. The breakfast was extra but sufficient. The breakfast room was maintained by the owner(s) of the hotel and they made sure that nothing was amiss. Been told that although breakfast officially finishes at 10:00 anyone arriving late would be still served and they were only happy when customers smile. And the baguette could not be any fresher!
Was sorry to leave after only one night to continue our journey.
My husband and I recently spent two nights at the Moulin de Ducey. It was perfect for us in a good location for visiting Mont St Michel and then nice to be able to come back to somewhere quiet and pretty. We had a room overlooking the river so pleasant. Staff very polite and helpful . A few restaurants in the little village not all open at the same time but can manage to eat at one of them. Would not bother with the Italian as it was the first pizza we have ever seen and eaten. Staff not
helpful.
We cancelled a reservation on Mont St. Michel in favor of this place and we weren't disappointed. This was a nice place in a great location with a comfortable room at a reasonable price. I'm not sure what else you could ask for. Ask for a room overlooking the river and check out the bridge at night!
