About
Le Cancalais stands at 12 quai Gambetta on the harbour of La Houle in Cancale. Its appeal is obvious: the terrace and some rooms face the sea, the seawall is right in front, and the shops, restaurants, oyster market and harbour walks are all reachable without the car. This 3-star hotel and restaurant has just 10 rooms: six sea-view doubles (rooms 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 and 9) and four doubles without a sea view (rooms 1, 5, 6 and 10). Every room has a double bed; the hotel has no twin rooms, which is worth knowing for friends or colleagues who want to share a room without sharing a bed. The rooms have a private shower room with a toilet, free Wi‑Fi, a flat-screen TV and a hairdryer, and room service is available.
