Brittany's dramatic 750-mile coastline traces a rugged hem against the chilly Atlantic. Attractions such as St-Malo's 1689 Fort National, the prehistoric ruins and striking beauty of Gavrinish Island and Brest's Oceanopolis aquarium cling to the rocky shoreline of France's most northwestern province. Nantes, Rennes and Brest are the largest cities. Rennes is just two hours from Paris by TGV. Breton and Gallo, the ancient languages of this Celtic province, are still spoken in pockets throughout the area.

Exceptionally clean and modern hostel, with wonderful staff and lovely decor. Didn't give it 5 stars due to the limited kitchen facilities for guests. There is a microwave, kettle and sink to wash up, but no other cooking facilities, and limited fridge space, which means that you must rely on eating out for longer stays. Having stayed extensively in hostels around the world the self service cooking facilities would be on the very low end for a hostel, but perhaps most stays are short, overnight stays and so this would be fine. The dorms are spacious and the bed design offers lots of privacy. Location is great for accessing the train or walking into the centre of the pretty town centre.

Huge walk in shower and bathroom, four windows facing a back garden and river provide excellent light and breeze. Breakfast is sufficient. Luggage storage. Clean. Wifi works best near the office. Location is a short walk from the city center, and also accessible by Metro from the train station (use Anatole France stop). My only suggestion would be to have expanded desk hours. There is a lockout from 10 to 2:30 for cleaning, which worked well for me, but might not for everyone.

I spent four nights at this hostel with some friends on a tour of Brittany in April 2016. It is a very nice hostel, friendly staff, with cosy yet comfortable rooms, some of which you can just about see the Bay of Saint Brieuc. We stayed on a half board basis, breakfast was continental and done on a help-yourself basis with cereal, hot and cold drinks, toast, croissants etc. all available. The hostel features several communal areas, including a television room and sports centre. Highly recommended if travelling in Saint Brieuc on a budget.

I frequented this hostel with some friends on a tour of Brittany in April 2017. It is a really nice hostel, wifi quite fast and just about worked in bedrooms, food was quite nice and substantial with soup served every day, always a welcome comfort. Rooms were quite cosy, but shared bathrooms clean and the beds were comfortable. Recommended if in Brest and travelling on a budget.

Dans le cadre d'une formation, nous (6 personnes) avons passé 2 nuits à l'auberge de jeunesse de pontivy. L'auberge est impeccablement tenue! Draps, sols, douches, toilettes, rien à redire! L'auberge est aussi située au coeur du centre ville sur les bords du canal près d'un parc avec des tables de pique nique. Très pratique!On peut commander son p'tit dej ou emmener ce qu'il faut pour tout preparer soit-meme sur place.Je recommande vraiment!
Cet hébergement peut accueillir 15 personnes dans un confort de grande qualité. Il convient aussi bien aux personnes seules qu'à des couples ou des familles. Le petit déjeuner est inclus dans le prix de la nuitée.
