Half-timbered houses frame the magnificent Parliament of Brittany in Rennes' medieval centre, where Saturday's Marché des Lices offers the region's best produce. Discover centuries of art at the Museum of Fine Arts, then join locals at pavement cafés in Place Sainte-Anne after exploring the manicured Thabor Gardens.
We booked À la Mainguère at quite short notice, for a quiet night before catching our ferry back to England the next day. Well I have to say, that after one night, we want to book again and for longer! What a fabulous place to stay and with just perfect hosts too. The attention to detail in all areas from greeting us, the presentation of the rooms, to a fabulous breakfast. Thank you so much. Hospitality at its best.

Hotels of this standard with spas are often outside the centre so it was great to stay here - to be so comfortable and so close to shops, restaurants, walks etc. The staff person in reception gave a us a map and outlined a walk round the city which we took, and saw all the main sites, especially the old historic quarter. The room was very comfortable (great bed!) and spotlessly clean. The spa is small, but since the hotel only allows a small number of people in at a time, it is perfectly...

What a fantastic hotel, right in the heart of the city.
The hotel itself has an eclectic mix of memorabilia, mainly centred in the music industry - and even boasts its own recording studio.
The staff are very attentive and professional, and the whole place feels wonderfully relaxed.
The Expedia description doesn’t mention parking, but don’t let this put you off. There is both on street parking as well as an underground car park within 100m of the hotel.

Very handy apartment hotel. Lots of easy free parking and cheap EV charging/petrol nearby. Modern, spacious, comfy and clean with friendly staff. Huge supermarket opposite and cinema, pizza restaurant, brewpub with great burgers and McDonald's all within 5-10 mins walk. Bus stop opposite to metro into the city, total trip takes 20 mins and costs just €1.70 by contactless. Continental breakfast was good too. My room had a lovely rural view to the rear of the hotel.
