Looking for hotel in Dinan

We're looking for a place to stay in Dinan,Brittany-hotel, B&B or Chateaux. I did see something about a place called Logis du Jerzual but the description said there was a long walk to the house up a cobbled street. <BR>Anyone one have any iformation on this or other places?

Sorry, I have no personal experience staying in Dinan, but maybe this site will help (if you haven't already seen it.) It has a website link to the Jerzual as well as other hotels and B&B's in and around Dinan. I must say that the Jerzual, a 3-star Best Western property, would not be my first choice. Too modern and and American motel-like for my tastes. Site includes a video. Hope this is helpful.<BR><BR>http://www.dinan-tourisme.com/ (available in English)

Le Logis du Jerzual in Dinan is a B&B recommended in Karen Brown's guidebook. I don't think you can go wrong with that...that is, if you can get in! We are staying in one of "her" B&Bs in nearby St. Pierre de Plesguen.

I must apologize. Not being able to reconcile Lulu's post with what I saw on the Dinan OT site, I had another look. I made an amateurish mistake: just because names are similar, it doesn't mean it's the same place!<BR><BR>Le Logis de Jerzual <BR>26 quai des Talards<BR>Port de Dinan<BR>22100 LANVALLAY<BR>T&eacute;l : 02.96.87.02.02 <BR>Fax : 02.96.87.02.03 <BR><BR>HOTEL LE JERZUAL <BR>25, 27 rue du Petit-Fort<BR>22100 DINAN<BR>T&eacute;l : 02.96.85.46.54 <BR>Fax : 02.96.39.46.94 <BR><BR> It's the latter that I didn't like the looks of. Frelen, you and Lulu are apparently referring to the former. Sorry if I mislead you.

Thanks to Betty & Lulu. All this being said, I go back to part of my original question of- does anyone know about this 'long walk' or perhaps some other place.<BR>What about Hotel le D'Avaugour or Hotel Arvor?

Hi frelen, All I can contribute is this memory. We arrived in Dinan by train and it was a flat walk into the old town. That part of Dinan, with its ancient buildings and cobbled streets, is high above a winding river with little boats docked along it. The most picturesque streets in the old town are indeed those that go steeply down toward the 'harbor' -- in fact, I remember one with the name Jerzual. I guess I'd try to ask the owners of your b&b about the difficulties re parking (are you driving?)-- just in case you would have to park at the base of the hill and walk up. Good luck. Dinan is beautiful.

We stayed at the Hotel d'Avaugour in '95 for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would ask for a larger room if possible. Much better as a base, I think, than St. Malo.
