Le Saison — Restaurant in Rennes

We used Les Patios as a stop-off on our way back from the Vendee before catching the ferry home the following day. We have two small children, and despite arriving with a car loaded to the roof with bags with a grumpy toddler, the staff were incredibly welcoming. Our room was very comfortable, with an extra bed for our four year old. We loved the little garden although because of the pond and delicate planting, we didn't wander around in it. However, there is a field with horses nearby where children can play/ wander, so we made use of that instead. The floor to ceiling window made the outdoor patio a beautiful living painting though! ||We ate in the restaurant (although the baby monitor app didn't work due to the restaurant being on a different wifi loop to the rooms), so we used our mobile phones as a monitor instead. The food was incredible. Beautifully balanced, great presentation, delicious and original flavour combinations and not overly rich or cloying. Service was impeccable. Breakfast was plentiful, fresh and delish. If we were to come back again, we'd probably do it without the children, but will be recommending...

Very belated review of our five-day stop at Les Patios in July. I suspect most people only stop a night or two, but it ticked all the boxes we wanted for a relaxing break and so easy to get into the centre of Rennes on the bus. David and Christine are marvellous (and very down-to-earth) hosts and this bijou hotel in the fringes of suburbia is a dream. ||||We had the pool pretty much to ourselves for most of our stay (the few other guests tended to arrive late in the afternoon and leave soon after breakfast), though it was sufficiently hot that we frequently retired to our cleverly designed air-conditioned room (right next to the pool area) to read and laze. Christine made sure there was always a wonderful spread for breakfast, even if we seemed to be the only ones there, and even gave us a bag of pastries for the trip home on our last morning.||||Wouldn't hesitate to come here again if in the area, especially as the lunches and dinners (reviewed separately)...
