The entire city on foot from the congress center
Easy to navigate on foot, with its many vehicle-phobic cobbled
streets, Rennes old town offers its guests everything they could
want once their day is over, where they can relax or enjoy or night
out. A city centre where you can wander through the area surroun-
ding the conference centre in a vibrant atmosphere of culture and
leisure, with cinemas, theatres, concerts, medieval heritage, ori-
ginal boutiques, parks, luxury hotels, café terraces, restaurants...
And anything you can’t reach on foot can be reached by metro,
bus or bike.
