Guide
Romantic weekend in Rennes: the complete guide
Where to stay, what to do, where to walk and how to enjoy Rennes as a couple without turning your weekend into a tourist marathon.
Why Rennes?
A lively, beautiful city that is easy to explore as a couple
Rennes offers a romantic weekend that feels simple, lively and refreshingly different.
The historic centre is compact and largely walkable. Restaurants, terraces, old streets and green spaces are easy to combine without spending the weekend in transit.
From Paris Montparnasse, the direct TGV reaches Rennes in around 1 hour 30 minutes. Allow around two hours in total from Montparnasse to the suite, including the short taxi ride from the station.
To take the escape further, discover everything you can explore across Brittany with Love Horizons as your base.
Where to stay
A private suite 90 metres above Rennes
There are hotels. And then there is Love Horizons.
The suite is set on the upper floors of the Tour des Horizons: panoramic views across Rennes, a two-person spa bath facing the windows, a hammam with chromotherapy, a king-size bed and an audio system with more than 80,000 tracks.
One couple occupies the suite at a time, with a personal welcome on arrival.
The right weekend is not the one that fills every hour. It is the one where the city and the setting leave you time.
The itinerary
A weekend in Rennes without rushing
Arrive and let go
Arrival is possible from 3 p.m. If you take the TGV after work, you can be in Rennes before the evening is over. Dinner around Sainte-Anne, then back to the suite for the view and private spa.
Marché des Lices
On Saturday morning, Marché des Lices brings together cheese, crêpes, cider, flowers and produce from the coast. It is only a few minutes on foot from Love Horizons.
Get lost in old Rennes
Half-timbered houses, the narrow streets of Sainte-Anne, terraces and galleries, then Parc du Thabor or Canal Saint-Martin depending on your mood.
Rise back above the city
The programme can end there: hammam, spa bath, light, music and Rennes below the windows.
Beyond Rennes
If you want to leave the city for a few hours

Why it works
A real change of scenery can begin close to home
Rennes is appealing as much for what it offers as for what it avoids.
Your weekend can stay focused on the two of you: walk, have dinner, return to the suite and leave the next day feeling as though you truly switched off.
