Mama Shelter Rennes
Lovely hotel in amazing location. We loved the spa too, and breakfast was great. Big room with fun design. Bar area was very dark and inside area not pleasant to sit in during winter, luckily sun came out so we could sit outside.

Campanile Rennes Centre - Gare
The pillows were like rocks and there are no other options. Secondly, there is an atrium on the ground floor that is open to the interior rooms. There was someone talking loudly there until we called the front desk at 3am.
