Hotel in zona Tape à l＇œil, Rennes

Managed to find the hotel easily enough (thanks to GPS) and parked outside to check-in before accessing the car park, which was beautifully cool (at least compared with the temperatures outside). The room was a standard Mercure affair - reasonably spacious and comfortable. Air-conditioning worked well. Breakfast was good. Location reasonably good for exploring the city.

Spent 2 nights there in a standard double room. It was larger than expected, clean and modern. The bed was wide and comfortable. Good selection of pillows too. Toilets were separate from the bathroom, which was a bonus. TV a bit small and far from the bed so not easy to watch. On the top floor overlooking a main street but it was quiet. Breakfast was tasty and varied. Coffee a bit weak. Check-in and out easy and fast. We wanted wine on Sunday evening but the bar was closed and one of the guys at reception offered to pour us glasses, which was nice. 2mn walk from Rennes train station / metro and bus. A fair few restaurants around and shopping centres nearby. Historic centre is only about 10mn walk. Didn't use the spa or pool so can't comment but they both looked attractive and welcoming. Few minus points: no milk in the room, only a few sachets of instant coffee. Air con a bit troublesome so hot in room but could open the two large windows so no biggie.

We stayed here for three nights after arriving in Paris, travelling directly from Charles de Gaulle airport by train (TGV). Getting to the hotel was straightforward. From the train station, cross Place de la Gare and then walk straight along Avenue Jean Janvier. The hotel is easily spotted once the junction with Rue Jean Marie Duhamel is reached (avoid Google maps and Apple maps; they gave less direct routes and different to each other). The hotel room was on the small side (for which we were prepared) but it was not an issue; the room was clean and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was also good. There is a nice courtyard which guests may use as well. The staff were helpful and friendly, with particular thanks to one receptionist who was on duty for most of our stay. The location of the hotel was convenient for both the station and the city centre. We had a couple of good meals at L’Épe de Blé, across from Place de la Gare. If we to visit Rennes again, we would certainly use this hotel.

Situé très proche de la gare et donc du métro, l'hôtel est idéalement situé. Pour avoir dormit dans certains campaniles ont est plus sur le standing d'un Ibis style que d'un campanile ”classique” donc une bonne surprise. Rien à dire sur la chambre et la literie qui était très bien. Aucun bruit ou nuisance à signaler. C'est donc un sans fautes pour un prix raisonnable.

The hotel has two buildings that are about one block away from each other. The satellite (maybe newer?) building has no front desk staff. So when you need anything, including check in/out and store luggage, you'd have to walk (i.e. dragging your bags) for a block. While both buildings are about a block from the train station, you do need to walk more than two blocks if you are in the other building. Still, not too bad. The staff is professional and nice. The rooms are small but typical by European standards. Doesn't bother me much a a solo traveler without too much luggage. But the bathroom is so small that I can't sit straight on the toilet because it's too close to the wall. The buildings are old, but the interior seems to just gone through a complete renovation. Very modern and new, which is nice. Someone mentioned curtains. It actually has motorized shutters that completely shut off light. So dark that I almost overslept through my appointment. The trick is that it's controlled by a switch not very obvious. I needed a cleaning staff's help to find it. Breakfast costs 11 euros. Don't know what's like. Probably better off just go with the bakery next to the main building. The deal breaker is its terrible WiFi service. They use a browser log in service that can't seems to maintain connection. At times, I had to log back on every other minute! To be honest, I would consider they don't have a working WiFi service in that condition. I saw someone complained about it before. If they don't bother fix it, I will not stay there, period.

Siamo stati a Adagio l'8 e 9 aprile. Abbiamo prenotato colazione e prenotato Parcheggio. Il check-in è stato semplice come ho pre-checked online prima dell'arrivo. Il parcheggio è facile da trovare, ma è necessario andare rapidamente alla Reception per ottenere un fob temporaneo per aprire la porta, una volta parcheggiato si torna alla Reception e ti consegnano le chiavi con un fob parcheggio auto. Il colazione è continentale, potrebbe fare di più per scegliere da (quindi 4 stelle) . Tutto è pulito e funzionale. Il letto è comodo (ho Fibromyalgia).Non abbiamo cucinato, ma se volete, le basi sono li. Il personale è molto piacevole, sia alla Reception che al Colazione. Bonus, se necessario, offrono un servizio di catering di cibo che si può pre-ordine prima delle 12:00. Il centro città è a piedi e ci sono buoni servizi di autobus se necessario. Certamente riusciremmo a usarlo.

Un ottimo accoglienza ......! Super appartamento tutto ciò che serve come casa. Il bemol manca un tavolo da tagliare in cucina e non ho trovato abbastanza potere per il lavastoviglie . Altrimenti era perfetto sono molto felice . Un colazione con molte scelte, sinceramente, non c'è niente da dire al personale super accogliente e sorridente ....! Grazie 😃.....!

En voyage d'affaires, par hasard le 14 février, toute l'équipe a mis les bouchées doubles pour satisfaire tous les amoureux (ou pas) avec un delicieux chocolat en coeur à l'arrivée. Equipe très attentive, dynamique, souriante, au petits soins de ses clients, habitués ou pas mais on sentait un coté très chaleureux des Bretons !!! Et ils savent mettre l'accent sur cette force bretonne : les célébrités bretonnes tapissent les murs, T-Shirts avec citations clins d'oeil bretons (je vous laisse découvrir), far breton et crepes au ptit dej, photo panoramiques dans les chambres de paysages bretons. Restaurant délicieux.J'ai adoré ! Super aussi la réception sur la table, ca fait très, j'arrive à la maison et non pas à l'hotel. Franchement chapeau à toute l'équipe et bravo pour toutes vos idées. J'avais passé la semaine dans d'autres Novotel et n'ai rien ressenti de tout cela :) UN GRAND MERCI et bravo. Kenavo. A une prochaine j'espère.
