Hotel dal sapore vintage, si trova in una ottima posizione tranquilla con vista sul golfo. Il parcheggio è comodo ed è facilmente accessibile. L' hotel dispone di un ristorante interno;propone piatti locali ben curati. Il personale si è dimostrato molto cordiale e disponibile anche a fronte di alcune richieste al ristorante (vegan e vegetariano). Camera pulita e confortevole, bagno nuovo

A éviter
Une fois mais pas deux !!!
Chambre avec une salle de bains un peu vieillotte , mais avec deux télévisions !!!
Une en panne qui reste faire partie du décor et l'autre placée sur une table.
Vue sur le jardin, du moins jardin de nom car pas entretenu du tout, plutôt une mini jungle
Arrivés un peu tard dans l'après midi nous avons pris le diner du soir sur place mal nous en a pris.
Les mets repris sur la carte étaient pratiquement tous absents en cuisine, idem pour la carte des vins.
Bref nous avons du nous contenter de ce qui restait.
Et pour ce qui restait nous avons également du PATIENTER ............
Arrivé à table à 19;15' nous avons reçu notre premier plat ( soumis) à 21;15' !!!
Et cerise sur le gâteau, lors de notre dernier petit déjeuner avant notre départ nous avons reçu comme information qu'il faudrait attendre un pour le café car " désolé mais nous n'avons pas prévu autant de petit déjeuner en une fois" pour info nous étions trois table pour déjeuner à ce moment là ( 08;15')
Lors du règlement de ma note la patronne de l'établissement m'a avoué que le séjour aurait pu être plus agréable avec un peu d'organisation de sa part !!!
JE LE CONFIRME !!!

Situé à la sortie de la ville de Douarnenez, l'hôtel "le cabestan" nous a charmé par son calme, l'accueil de la propriétaire et le confort des chambres. cet établissement est proche de la pointe du raz, de grands sites naturels, des plages où démarrent de nombreuses randonnées et de centres urbains. Le bourg d'Esquibien est particulièrement typique et reposant. Séjour à conseiller.

esquiban auberge.
Enjoyed stay one week end of July 2015. Hotel staff very helpful. Breakfasts excellent.
Didn't try evening meal may be good but limited menu and expensive.
Bathroom disappointment toilet repeatedly wouldn't flush, although manager trying to sort it. Mirror too far away and and no shower screen.
More good restaurants and life in beach area.
