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.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
At check in I spoke in French to the receptionist but she insisted in responding in English - I wasnt struggling to understand or make myself understood - thankfully no other staff members we encountered did this - it's rude. Booking through Expedia the room was described as having 1 double bed and 2 singles but the room we were given had a double bed and a sofa bed. Luckily the sofa bed was comfortable. Dinner at the restaurant wasn't great and the vegetarian option was especially poor. The double bed and pillows weren't comfortable. The bathroom was spotless ... there was no mould around the shower base or the shower heads ... this is quite rare even in 4 and 5 star hotels. The bathroom sink wasn't great ... it was very low and the tap was too low also. Breakfast was good ... plenty of choice. The female staff member at breakfast was rude and dismissive. Overall we enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn't stay again as the bed wasn't comfortable ... this is kind of essential!
