Brittany hotels tend to book up fast for the peak holiday weeks,
from mid July to late August, so advance booking is highly recommended.
Besides, since the Brittany hotels listed on this page are small, and
since they all offer good value and a warm friendly environment, many
of them can fill up now and again even well out of the peak holiday
season. So booking in advance, if there are rooms avaialble, is never
a bad idea. Leave it until later, and you may well find that the rooms
that were available have been taken for your dates.
Hotels listed on iHi hve been carefully
selected from among the thousands of hotels in France .
To allow travellers to book many hotels from the iHi selection online, iHi works in
partnership with Hotels.com (part of Expedia) and Booking.com
in order to offer online booking in English at best
Internet rates. However some hotels listed in this directory do not use
booking sites, and must be booked
directly with the hotel by email or telephone.

Hotel star ranking
in France:
Stars
are usually a guide to quality, but not always, since in France they
are
attributed in function of amenities and services provided, but not
necessarily the
quality of those amenities. The system was revised in 2009, and though
it is now more flexible than before, the classification still
remains amenity based , rather than quality based.
This
directory includes several
hotels which, in terms of quality, do not have as many stars as one
might expect.
Selected independent
hotels with character in
Brittany
Character,
quality, value.
The iHi directory is a selection of hotels, chosen with care to include
only friendly hotels with character offering good value for money. With
its
auberges,
classic hotels, and manors the iHi Brittany hotel guide brings you
great places to stay in,
from eastern Brittany to the furthest western
points. The
IHI directory
gives
priority to country hotels offering good value for money, or town
