Which area of Rennes is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers, the areas around the train station (Gare de Rennes) and the university campus are often the best for finding affordable accommodation in Rennes. These areas tend to have a higher concentration of budget hotels and hostels.

The area near Gare de Rennes is particularly convenient for solo travellers arriving by train, as it offers easy access to public transport for exploring the city. There are several modern, no-frills hotels here that cater to those looking for a clean and efficient stay without breaking the bank. From here, it's a straightforward walk or short metro ride to the city centre.

Alternatively, the districts surrounding the university campus, such as Beaulieu or Villejean, can also offer cheaper options, especially during non-term times. While slightly further from the historical heart of Rennes, these areas are well-served by public transport, making it easy to reach attractions.

Aparthotel Adagio Access Rennes Centre, with an 8.6 rating, provides free breakfast for children, making it a great value for families. Guests also appreciate the free WiFi and the convenience of a kitchen in their accommodations. Its location also receives good feedback from customers.

When is the most affordable time to visit Rennes?
The most affordable time to visit Rennes is generally during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October), or during the quiet winter months (November to March), excluding the Christmas and New Year period. During these times, you'll find lower prices on accommodation and flights compared to the peak summer season.

For solo travellers, the spring and autumn offer pleasant weather for exploring the city's charming streets and parks without the summer crowds, often leading to better deals on hostel beds and smaller hotels. You can enjoy the vibrant setting of the historic centre, visit the Parliament of Brittany, or wander through the Thabor Park, all largely free activities.

Families looking to save money might find winter to be surprisingly good value, especially if they are prepared for cooler weather. While some outdoor activities might be limited, many museums and indoor attractions, like the Museum of Brittany, are still open, providing affordable entertainment. Plus, the reduced tourist numbers mean a more relaxed experience and easier access to popular spots.
Is Rennes a budget-friendly destination?
Yes, Rennes is a budget-friendly destination, especially when compared to larger French cities like Paris. Its compact size and excellent public transport make it easy to explore without breaking the bank.

For solo travellers and couples, staying in the city centre reduces travel costs as many attractions are within walking distance. Alternatively, look for accommodation just outside the historic core, which is often more affordable and still well-connected by bus or Métro.

Much of Rennes's charm can be experienced for free. Couples can wander through the beautiful Parc du Thabor, explore the medieval streets of the old town, and admire the colourful timber-framed houses. A visit to the Saturday morning Marché des Lices, one of France's largest and oldest markets, offers a vibrant setting and delicious local produce at reasonable prices.

Dining in Rennes can also be inexpensive. Seek out local crêperies for a traditional and affordable meal, or enjoy a picnic with fresh produce from the market. Many cafes offer great value lunch deals, making it easy to enjoy the local cuisine without overspending.

The atmosphere is vibrant, and simply soaking in the architecture and street life is an enjoyable experience. Don't miss the chance to explore the grand Saint-Pierre Cathedral, a magnificent structure that offers a peaceful respite from the city's bustle.

Couples can enjoy the tranquility of the Parc du Thabor, an exquisite public garden that combines French-style formal gardens, an English-style park, and a botanical garden. It's superb for a romantic walk, a picnic, or simply relaxing on a bench. The park also features a rose garden and aviaries, adding to its appeal.

With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Rennes for you.
