The location and the staff

The tiny small room where you hardly can sit on the toilet

We stayed in the Eucalyptus apartment just around the corner from the main hotel and opposite a fantastic Creperie located in a house that once belonged to a famous mosaic artist Olerico. The room was self catering, modern and bright with an ergonomic layout. Despite being relatively small, it was very comfortable for myself, my sister and my teen son. We were travelling by bicycle, and there was a separate secure garage where we could safely leave our bikes. The location is very central, and it was a pleasant 10 minute walk to the old City centre. The hotel emphasizes operating sustainably which I appreciated. We had the breakfast and I definitely recommend choosing this option. There was an excellent selection, all high quality products and mostly locally sourced. Delicious! I'd definitely return to the Garden Hotel when I visit Rennes again.

It was a warm night when we were there, and the provided duvets were heavier than needed. It would have been nice to have a light sheet on the bed to sleep under instead. But that was a very minor issue.

Habitación un poco pequeña

La chambre était simple, fonctionnelle et admirablement décorée. L'emplacement est idéal, juste à quelques minutes de marche de la gare centrale et de tous les grands magasins tels que Lafayette, Zara et autres. De nombreux restaurants aux alentours. L'ascenseur fonctionne.

L'ascenseur est étroit, mais il existe et il fonctionne. Les clés des chambres sont vieillottes...

Au calme et proche du centre et de la gare

Unfortunately the lift didn’t work for a while but was soon fixed

Breakfast

I booked a room and ended up with an 'apartment' up two long and steep flights of stairs in a separate building with no lift (unlike the main hotel). With a partner who finds stairs difficult and a heavy suitcase, this was not ideal and was a great disappointment. The information on the Booking.com website gave an inaccurate address as far as our Garmin sat-nav was concerned and we drove round Rennes for 50 minutes before finding the hotel

The room wasn't the biggest but it was comfortable and clean and pretty. The shower was good and it has a shaving mirror too. The staff were very helpful.
