Top Rennes Hotel Reviews

Kyriad Rennes Centre Gare

Kyriad Rennes Centre Gare

10/10 Excellent
"Extremely nice hotel for the money. We rented two rooms for a week. The rooms were clean and relatively large. The beds were very large and comfortable. Every member of the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We had some hotter days of high 80s to low 90s F (29-33C) and the AC worked fine. The location is right across from the train station, so it was very convenient for day trips by train or bus. Wi-Fi worked well for some remote work. It was maybe 15-20 minutes walk to the historical sights of the city center. Even though our room looked over the plaza area in front of the train station, it was very quiet at night."
