Hotel with charm and character and view over river. (Frogs chorus at night, natural of course, might need blocks for the ears if keeping window open to ease heat). Relaxed, pleasant hotel crew. €13+ each added for breakfast seemed a bit much?!

Lovely comfortable modern room in a stylish villa. brilliant access to town on foot while having good safe parking and very quiet. Very hot though and no aircon. Fan was insufficient. aircon expected nowadays.

Pas terrible
La salle de bain ressemble à une salle de bain d’hôpital. Les chambres sont mal isolés. Pas terrible l’aspirateur à 7h30 dans la chambre d’à côté et le bruit de la tv. Une odeur d’hôpital dans toute la chambre…

Cet Hôtel est un lieu très sympathique avec un environnement très agréable. Situé au cœur de Cesson sévigné, au dessus d'un cour d'eau, en fait un cadre ou on se sent bien. Les chambres sont confortables. Accueil très professionnel.

Arrivée tardive mais mot d'accueil laissé avec les clés. Suite au 2e etage très bien. Pas de climatisation mais belles prestations d'ensemble. Pas de parking privatif. Superbe localisation. On a l'impression que l'hôtel est encerclé par la Vilaine.

내부 시설은 그런대로 좋으나 동네 운하에 면하고 있어 모기등 유입 가능성도 있고 그 때문인지 실내 복도에 차단문이 2, 3개 있어 통풍이 문제인듯 공기가 탁했습니다~

Das Hotel ist schön gelegen auf einer Insel im Fluss, Parkplätze direkt nebenan und rund ums Hotel verschiedene Restaurants und eine Bäckerei. Der Frühstücksraum ist auch nett und mit Blick auf den Fluss. Frühstück reichhaltig und gut.

Des progrès à faire
Nuit calme mais des efforts à faire pour etre digne d un relais du silence : hall et peinture défraîchie, hôtesse condescendante très franchouillard tout ca. Il faut se donner les moyens de ses ambitions
