L'EssenCiel Reviews
Summary: Fun, quirky hotel. Grounds are well kept, with many interesting art installations.
Check restaurant opening times before booking. We were disappointed that the main restaurant was closed during our stay.

Summary: A unique place to stay with a lovely pool/ spa and comfortable bed.
A little let down by the service. Kettle in room and two herbal tea bags. We asked if it was posssible to have a black tea teabag (essential for English travellers) but were told no we would have to order tea in the cafe if we wanted black tea. Very disappointing for a hotel that prides itself on good customer service!

Summary: We had a great couple of nights at the hotel. The pod arrangement is unique and makes for a memorable stay. The staff are fantastic and a special mention to Maxim the cocktail mixologist. The spa facilities are excellent with the pool at the perfect temperature. The only slight negative points were, the rooms do not have air conditioning and we stayed during a heatwave. The buffet restaurant is not that great, I was expecting something better given that the other restaurant has a Michelin star.

Summary: The whole stay was wonderful! We had good advice about travelling into Rennes. The dinner in the restaurant was excellent. The staff were very helpful. The grounds were beautiful: we wish we could have stayed a little longer to make the most of the sculpture garden. We would like to come again!
