Reviews for Citotel Hotel de France
Review 1:some street vehicle noise as we were at the front this time but this was only a minor irritation - didn't keep either of us awake.
Review 2:We've stayed here before the hotel staff are friendly and helpful, parking is convenient and reasonable price, my husband enjoys the breakfast. There was problem with our room lock so we were swiftly moved . Bathroom looks compact but the shower is really spacious. very convenient for town, station and shopping plus easy to find you just follow signs for 'la Gare'. Bright, light bulding.
Review 3:Friendly and helpful reception, clean rooms, good advice regarding exploring the city. Good buffet breakfast with plenty to eat, catered for all tastes. Close to local attractions (good 10-15 mins walking). Parking in adjacent parking area.
Review 4:Reception staff were very helpful, with bilingual instructions. As tourists using trains, we were looking for some way to visit the Megaliths which are out in the country from Vannes, but there's no easy way to go there unless you have a car.
Review 5:It smelt like a cellar because of bathroom humidity kept on the carpet. It must have been like this for a long time. Without carpets and leaks it would be OK.
Review 6:N/a - would have liked hot drink facilities in room but that's not a big deal.
Review 7:People - helpful staff, place, secure parking, town, weather, room decent size as was bathroom
Review 8:Nothing in particular.
Review 9:One personal point of attention for us, was to accommodate our bicycles in a secure and easily accessible place, even though there wasn't a place specifically designated for bikes.
Review 10:Leaving.
Review 11:Room size, bed size, handy for station and town centre, friendly helpful staff, beautiful town, lovely weather. Husband enjoyed breakfasts. We went to the market on Wednesday, cycled around the gulf, ate (well) locally, prices everywhere were reasonable. We stayed two nights and could easily have spent longer. We'll be back.
Review 12:We chose the hotel not because of its proximity to downtown, but rather to the RR station and the highway. At any rate, the old part of town and the port is about a 20 minutes walk.
Review 13:The breakfast is expensive and not worth its value. Upon arrival we've spotted plenty of problems in our room which were simply not acceptable for a three star hotel. Yet they managed to solve them.
Review 14:The staff is very friendly and helpfull. Private parking just next to the hotel.
Review 15:Chose hotel due to proximity to train station. Easy to get to train AND local buses. Asked for a first floor room, and got it! Did not go out at night, neighborhood seemed a little grungy.
Review 16:1. Parking - there is limited parking so you MUST reserve it prior to arriving otherwise you will be parking qt the railway station car park 2. Room facilities - these were a very bare minimal and the pillows were the smallest and hardest we have ever seen. 3. The brochure says that there is a bar and meals served, even room service but this is not so at all. You will need to go to the village to eat
Review 17:Location to the centre ville and access to the building were fine
Review 18:Although I asked for a quiet room I have never stayed anywhere so noisy. Although there was supposed to be wifi we couldn't get it and were told there was a computer on the first floor. Parking was available but was at an extra cost. Will not be revisiting
Review 19:The bed was comfortable
Review 20:Nothing
Review 21:Cleanliness of the room, size big and suitable for family, affordable prices, wifi fast, not far from the city centre, near with public transport, staff speak english very well
Review 22:Everything was good for us
Review 23:The secure parking, 24 hour reception and the welcome, good town information from the receptionist, Enough for Breakfast. Hotel and rooms clean and tidy. Bus stop outside the hotel if the walk back was to much for you, Uphill.
Review 24:Wi fi didn't work and even after helpful explanation in English about how to access it I wasn't really surprised. A code of access after 10 pm which was fine (and common in the area) though I do worry I won't be able to get in.
Review 25:Very handy for railway station and about 12 minutes walk from town centre. Helpful staff keen to speak English. Comfortable room and nice breakfast
Review 26:Friendly, helpful staff. Good value for money in comfortable hotel. Walking distance to old town of Vannes. 5 minutes walk to railway station and bus stop just outside.
Review 27:Short walk from the centre of Vannes and the train station. Clean and comfortable room and staff were very helpful and polite. We stayed for 5 nights and got a really good deal.
Review 28:Not much, problem with the light in bathroom but staff offered alternative very quickly.
Review 29:Short walking distance to the beautiful old part of city. Immaculately fitted out with very pleasant deck for the partaking of sundowners. Helpful and friendly staff, wish I could have stayed longer.
Review 30:Great helpful staff, clean comfortable hotel with sitting areas and even an office space with computer provided. Our best hotel out of the 10 we stayed in on our travels.

Review 53:Our family room was big, a huge doble bed in one room and in a close room (no door between) two sofabeds. WC room and Shower room (small but acceptable). All mouquette in the room, it looked like clean but I don't like it that much! We had some problems with WiFi at the beginning solved later.

Review 54:No air conditioning.
Review 55:They have a nice upstairs, outdoor deck to sit at with a picnic table and enjoy a drink or a meal. A nice sitting room with multiple chairs and many windows to relax in. Pretty good WIFI connection.

Review 59:The staff spoke English and were extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean. In addition to WiFi in the room, guests have access to other computers. At breakfast there were homemade local dishes and there was plenty of choice. There were plenty of general areas where you could read the newspapers and books that were supplied. I would recommend this hotel to others.
Review 60:Free WiFi with high quality signal in the bedroom. Parking wasavailable on site at €5 for the night which was very handy and made fora stress-free arrival. Very friendly and helpful receptionist explainedwhere we could find open restaurants in Vannes on a Sunday evening andspoke English. The room itself was clean, comfortable and functional.We would go back.
Review 61:The room I had was shabby and I don't think the hotel should have three stars. I would only recommend it for an overnight stay, not for longer.
Review 62:The location near the train station, free Wi-Fi and internet access, friendly staff.
Review 63:I would definitely stay here again. The staff were brilliant and extremely helpful. excellent value in a good location within walking distance to the city centre.
Review 64:Being able to hear other guests talking to 4am and banging around. Other guests being one floor up and across two rooms! Walls were paper thin. Garden view rooms are not worth paying the extra for. Patio area is not private and was unable to find how to get to it. Dated and cold. Shower was a bit of a nightmare, going hot and cold all the time becareful!
Review 65:Bed was comfy and pillows were good!
Review 66:Unlit corridors - though hardly a draw back as rooms are very close to lift.
Review 67:Attentive and friendly staff whom were ever so kind, helpfully and courtious.
Review 68:The bath room was a bit small. There was no enough place to put toiletries.

Review 71:staff were really helpful and spoke great english. Couldnt help enough. Man on reception was really lovely.
Review 72:Nothing to complain about
Review 73:THe staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful. Free Wi-fi throughout the stay was a real plus. Comfortable beds and clean linen. Good breakfast and decent bar service that wasn't over priced. Parking was good and accessible. Nice outside terrace. Quiet area but Old Vannes within easy walking distance. The stay was made entirely pleasurable by the use of this hotel.
Review 74:The only thing that I missed in this hotel was an air conditioner. We were there in August, and it did get hot at night. I opened the windows which was nice. But I tend to be a little nervous sleeping with open windows in a town or hotel that I am not familiar with. But it was all good.
Review 75:The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to help us. I needed wash done but it was a Sunday. The staff offered (for a small fee) to wash my clothing for me. What a blessing that was for me. They also were inquisitive as to how our stay was going and if we were enjoying ourselves. It was very nice. We are a family of 5, which can be a problem in finding accomodations traveling. We had two rooms. Our room was comfortable and clean. Our girls room smelled a bit of cigarette smoke but it was clean. There was a laptop available for us to use. Not a bad place for a two star hotel.
Review 76:The incontinent herd of elephants staying overhead! Suggest guests request second floor room.
Review 77:Friendly staff and great location: five minutes from train station and ten from marina. Reasonably good buffet breakfast.

Review 80:Kind staff, good breakfast included in the final price of theroom, wireless.
Review 81:Within an easy walk (10 minutes) from old city. This hotel has a warm,friendly and luxurious feel about it. You feel special the moment youenter. Travelling by car makes it much easier as they have on-siteparking @ 5 euro. Room and bathroom was perfect. Clean and warm. Theyalso allowed us to leave our car on our parking spot the next day untilthe afternoon as we wanted to do some extra sight seeing.
Review 82:room was too small, no tea/coffee making facilities in room.
Review 83:the room was clean but a little cramped for 2 adults and a teenager. we stayed just 1 night as we were travelling further south. it was ok for that but staying for several nights would require a bigger room. there was no tea/coffee making facilities but was given a kettle when i asked at reception.
