Sleeping in Saint-Malo intra-muros
Let's start with probably the most popular district of Saint-Malo: the inner city. Located inside the ramparts themselves, this charming little town center is the heart of Saint-Malo. It is one of the places to visit in Brittany absolutely! With its small cobbled streets, its typical buildings, its many traders, its beautiful ramparts and its sites to visit, the intramural city is the district to be favored if you wish to visit Saint-Malo while having everything nearby.
The inner city is home to the Château de Saint-Malo but also the Residence of the Corsair to visit or the Saint-Vincent Cathedral. You can easily reach the ramparts thanks to various stairs distributed along them. From up there, you can admire a magnificent view of Saint-Malo, but also the bay, the port or the various beaches.

The district of Rothéneuf
In our article on visiting Saint-Malo, we saw that the Rothéneuf district has two tourist places to visit: the Jacques Cartier Museum and the Sculpted Rocks.

But it has an ideal and very quiet living environment, a stone's throw from the ocean.
Few hotels are available in this area, it will be better to focus on apartments or holiday homes. There are some sublime ones in this corner of Saint-Malo, that's what we're going to see right away.
