Hôtel Barracuda & Spa, Centre Port, pieds dans l'eau, vue mer

Logis Hotel Center
I enjoyed staying within walking distance of the main campus of the University of Western Brittany (UBO) where I had some meetings. My room was spacious, clean and quiet. But one light bulb was broken and the internet was so spotty that I could not use my laptop. Still, all considered, good value ...

Kyriad Brest Centre
Hôtel ibis Brest Centre
Good central location, very friendly staff. Very good breakfast buffet for this price category. We stayed 5 nights. On the more negative side: the rooms are small (but acceptable for a *** hotel), the mattresses for the single beds were OK but could be better. Garage descent a bit tight.

Oceania Le Conti**** Brest
An art-deco gem in the center of Brest, convenient to the SNCF station. We enjoyed their excellent restaurant and exotic drink options. The room was comfortable and the staff very helpful.
