This hotel was perfect for my partner and I because it has a large carpark and is near the ring road. We were driving through France so it was an ideal base to stop in Rennes. We had to get a taxi into the city to explore it, but that was fine for us. It is a clean, well equipped and comfortable hotel and it's great value. The massive shopping centre nearby is a plus, but I would not visit this area of the city if you want to experience the culture and nightlife of Rennes.

Staff lovely,room nice Lovely restaurant great quality food. The breakfast was sadly limited with not enough hot food, egg had run out and had to keep asking for things that had run out. Not enough food put out for guests. Hotel grounds are not that nice around the pool, could do with improvement. Not very nice to see the illegal camping outside the grounds

Nice restaurant, interior has been modernized and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Outside in need of a makeover. No door on the shower meant the floor in the bathroom got wet quickly. The toilet in our room wasn’t cleaned properly after the last guest which was disappointing. Having said that, we enjoyed our night in the hotel and would come back for a longer stay.
