La Maison Pavie

Fantastic locally made “Oceopin” Breton toiletries that smelled so good! Delicious breakfast spread highlighting local ingredients, including Saint Malo yogurt, six local jams, salted butter caramel, croissants, etc. The hosts will even whip up some eggs for you, or heat up milk for a special coffee drink. My hosts were Catherine and Léa and they could not have been more kind, genuine, and welcoming. The house and my room were spotless. Catherine was exceedingly kind to make up my room early for me, knowing that I was coming on the early side, which was such a treat unexpected. I also thoroughly enjoyed the sitting room. The house is decorated very tastefully with Asian inspiration in homage to it being the home of Auguste Pavin, a local diplomat who served in Indochina (you can find his statue in the Jardin Anglais, my favorite quiet spot!). There were many other thoughtful touches like water bottles and traditional cookies in the room and a special Parisian Mariage Frères teas available (in a myriad of flavors including decaf) 24/7 in the breakfast room. I had the Champassack room and it was perfect- quiet, cozy, and facing the gardens. The smell of salt in the air, the seagulls’ call, the starry starry night out the window…! I also liked that this room had a dedicated WC with a door. The shades on the skylights or cool dash they can be open or shaded or completely blackout. Beautiful shower with lovely waterfall faucet.

What an amazing place to be based whilst in Dinan! Everything is done beautifully here, from the bedding that makes you feel like you could stay in bed all day, to the delicious breakfast that makes sure you don’t! The building is stunning, and the decor is incredibly sympathetic. Catherine is a fantastic host and the location means you’re right in the heart of the city with everything at your fingertips but it’s still amazingly quiet! On top of that, parking is super close which makes things easy.

Situated right next to St Saviour in the heart of the old town. Lovely character rooms well equipped. Great breakfast

We spent two nights at Maison Pavie and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The hotel is exquisitely decorated with an Asian-inspired theme that blends beautifully with the existing medieval charm. The location is perfect—right in the heart of town, yet surprisingly peaceful. We stayed in the Deluxe Vinh-Long room, which was stunning. The décor was beautiful, with gorgeous frescoes by painter André Maire on the walls. The room featured a luxurious double shower and a very comfortable bed. Catherine and Ghislain were fantastic hosts, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere, especially at the shared breakfast table, where conversations with other guests often sparked. The breakfast itself was excellent, with a delicious selection of high-quality tea, coffee, fresh bread, croissants, jams, fruits, and even the local Craquelins! Next time we’re in Dinan, we’ll return without hesitation!

Everything was just perfect. The building is a beautiful mix of old and modern, where necessary. The room was spotless and the bed very comfy with a good selection of pillows. The host was fantastic and spoke excellent english. Breakfast was lovely.
