Discover the region

Whether you are visiting us for a tourist stopover or a business trip, you will take the time to discover the surroundings. Between land and sea, between beaches and cities, Brittany has a lot to offer you. The region also has exciting visits in store for you to do with your family.

For a weekend or a longer stay, let yourself be charmed by the Gulf of Morbihan, the city of Vannes and the expanses of nature that surround it.

Do not hesitate to ask for advice at the reception of your hotel in Vannes: your hosts will be able to give you their favorite addresses and activities, and even sell you tickets to go and discover islands or an animal park.

A historic center not to be missed

By choosing the Hôtel Anne de Bretagne, you will be staying a 10-minute walk from the historic center. Colorful half-timbered houses and cobbled streets will immerse you in the history of this magnificent Breton city.

At the intersection of rue Bienheureux-Pierre-René-Rogue and rue Noé, have fun finding the sculpture of Vannes and his wife, an emblematic couple of the city.

You can also admire the ramparts, very well preserved, as well as the garden that runs alongside them. Developed and maintained, they are a must-see visit. To the south of this garden are the Garenne wash houses, which we particularly recommend.

Megaliths around Vannes

About thirty kilometers from your hotel in Vannes, you will admire the Carnac Alignments. 3,000 menhirs, 6,000 years old, await you, forming the largest concentration of megaliths in the world!

Among these alignments, the most famous are those of Ménec, which have around 1,100 menhirs, or those of Kermario.

A cruise to the Gulf Islands

From the Vannes ferry terminal, take a cruise to discover the islands of the Gulf of Morbihan. Go for a walk on the Ile d'Arz to admire its landscapes, go to the Ile-aux-Moines and travel its 7 km on foot or by bike and go around the Gulf as a whole to learn everything about it.

A prehistoric visit to the Gavrinis Cairn

Learn more about the prehistoric history of the region by discovering the Cairn of Gavrinis. During a visit, you will be immersed in the Neolithic period and will access this monument classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its set of engravings and its dolmen will amaze you!

Take a cruise from the port of Larmor Baden and reach the island of Gavrinis which is home to this exceptional place!

A family outing to Branféré Park

With your family, enjoy a fun and exciting visit to the Parc de Branféré. Stroll through its 45 hectares which are home to more than 150 species of animals in freedom. 4 distinct zones will allow you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the 5 continents and learn more about their fauna and flora.

Meet at the reception of your hotel: you will find tickets for sale for the Parc de Branféré there.

A medieval district in Auray

Aurayis 15 minutes away. In this charming town, the Saint Goustan district and its port are worth a visit. Built in the 13th century, this district welcomed the American politician Benjamin Franklin in 1776: the port where he landed now bears his name.

The pedestrian Saint-Goustan district allows you to stroll through its gardens, enjoy the atmosphere that reigns along the Loc'h River, and sit on the terrace of a bar or restaurant in complete tranquility.
