Fodor's Expert Review La Mère Poulard

Grande-Rue, Le Mont-Saint-Michel, Normandy, 50116, France

Mont-St-Michel’s most famous hostelry can be tough to book: after all, its historic restaurant is the birthplace of Mère Poulard’s legendary soufflélike omelet. Set in adjoining houses, the hotel itself is linked by three steep and narrow stairways. La Mère Poulard's location, right by the main gateway, is very convenient—just don’t come expecting any views.

PROS

  • right at the entrance to the abbey
  • the best hotel dining in town
  • full of history

CONS

  • breakfast is extra
  • some rooms are small
  • restaurant fills up fast, especially in summer, so reserve ahead
