The director is proud of her hotel, its history (which began in 1880), its services, its loyal and sometimes famous guests. “The divine Sarah Bernhardt stayed here for a month, in August 1892. It was shortly before she discovered Belle-Île and decided to settle at the Pointe des Poulains,” Lisa explains. Since her visit, The Originals Relais, Grand Hôtel Abbatial has undergone a few changes. Notably during the interwar period, when two floors were added to meet the booming tourist demand that Bénodet was enjoying. Today, the 4-star establishment offers 51 rooms and 3 seminar rooms.

A swimming pool completes the offer, though being outdoors, it only welcomes courageous swimmers between June and September. Lovers of great sailors will appreciate being able to admire a splendid model of the Pen Duick 6, as well as an oilskin signed by its legendary skipper, Eric Tabarly.

HOTEL INFORMATION

Grand Hôtel Abbatiale Bénode, The Originals Relais

Pin 6 Avenue de l'Odet 29950 Saint-Étienne, France

Tips from your hotelier

Pointe du Raz

Welcome to the very edge of Brittany, where the land comes to an end (Finistère)! A rocky spur jutting into the Iroise Sea, the Pointe du Raz plunges into the fearsome Raz de Sein, known for its breakers and violent currents that “none have crossed without fear or pain,” as the local saying goes. A marked and secure trail follows the cliff tops. Prepare for dizzying panoramas and sweeping views over dramatic chasms such as the “Hell of Plogoff,” where a narrow, jagged cliff battered by the waves towers more than 70 m above the ocean.

Tips from your hotelier

Bénodet

Often described as a 5-star seaside resort, Bénodet is a true gem in the heart of Cornouaille. Five stars for its five major assets: its beaches with crystal-clear waters and golden sand, its harbours (one modern, the other delightfully picturesque), its lighthouses, timeless sentinels, its charming and characterful coves, and its remarkable heritage (its casino, the Musée des Bords de Mer, its unique villa Ker Magdalen!).

Tips from your hotelier

Quimper

From the quays of the Odet to the green slopes of Mount Frugy, from medieval alleyways to the Locmaria district, dive into old Quimper and uncover the city’s cultural treasures. Take the time to study the cathedral’s façade, admire the timber-framed houses along Rue Kéréon. Cross the Steir and you’ll find yourself on Place Terre-au-Duc, the former quarter of the Dukes of Brittany, where you can try to decipher the street names around you, reminders of ancient guilds: Rue du Pain-Cuit, Venelle du Moulin…

Tips from your hotelier

The Glenan Archipelago

From April to September, boats depart from Bénodet to take you to the Glénan Islands, an archipelago of seven islands boasting white-sand beaches and crystal-clear waters. Here, Brittany turns into the Seychelles! Strolls, sunbathing, and snorkelling are the order of the day. Nature lovers can witness a unique spectacle: between April and June, the Glénan narcissus, an endemic plant, reveals all its beauty. Its peculiarity? Each plant blooms only once a year.

Tips from your hotelier

Pont-Aven

Whether you’re passionate about art galleries or biscuit shops (the two are not mutually exclusive), a getaway to Pont-Aven is a must. Known as the “city of painters,” this small Breton town owes its fame to Paul Gauguin and the Pont-Aven School, an artistic movement born at the end of the 19th century. You can follow in the painters’ footsteps by strolling along the Promenade du Bois d’Amour, which traces the peaceful banks of the Aven, and discover the many watermills that punctuate the town. As the local saying goes: “Pont-Aven, a town of great renown, 14 mills and 15 houses.”
