Description

In the heart of Lorient a few steps from the station, the Aiden by Best Western Lorient Centre, Lorient, France, is a four-star that draws its eclectic, welcoming character from the old French East India Company and its expeditions, close to the conference centre and the city's major employers, with bright lobbies and high-speed Wi-Fi for working in comfort. A patio and the lounges make comfortable spaces to relax or meet, and the central setting suits a business trip or a city break alike. The harbour and the marina are close at hand. Lorient was founded as the base of the French East India Company, and the sea still runs through it, from the vast concrete submarine base of the war years, now a cultural quarter, to the Cite de la Voile sailing centre and the great Interceltic Festival each summer, with the beaches and islands of southern Brittany close by. Out in the roadstead, the yachts and the old port keep the city facing the ocean.

"Great if you don't have suitcases"
Olivia M, 18 Septembre 2026

This city hotel right next to the station has fun and funky decor. What it doesn't have is any storage in its rooms so if you are doing more than just passing through with a backpack or tiny suitcase it is impossible to unpack. Also no-where to put an open suitcase as rooms on the small side. What it does have is a very good breakfast. We made a mistake in choosing Lorient as the base for our South Brittany holiday. We were looking for charm and character and Lorient does not have any of these qualities. We had booked for four nights but moved on to Port Louis (a genuinely charming place) after two. If you just need a bed to sleep in and a great breakfast in a fun room then this is for you. It was not for us.

Owner Response, 18 Septembre 2026

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback following your stay with us. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our fun and original décor, as well as our breakfast. We are, however, sorry that the room layout and lack of storage made your four-night stay less comfortable than expected. We completely understand how this can be frustrating when travelling with larger luggage, especially when staying for several nights. We also understand that Lorient was not quite the destination you had imagined for your South Brittany holiday. We are glad you found a place that suited your expectations better, even if it meant cutting your stay with us short. Your comments are valuable to us and will be shared with our team as we continue looking for ways to improve the guest experience. We hope that, should you pass through Lorient again for a shorter stay, we may have the opportunity to offer you a more enjoyable experience. Kind regards, The Aiden Lorient Centre Team

We stayed here for the festival and wow it was fantastic. Anne-Sophie was amazing and sorted our reservation. We had the family room which was spacious and well equipped. The position of the hotel was perfect lots of nice restaurants in the area. I would 100% recommend this hotel and the staff were all so friendly.

"Perfect Place to Stay"
SimmoAdelaide, 20 Septembre 2025

Excellent place to stay; everything was within walking distance. Hotel is next to the main railway station which was perfect. Having said that no noise from trains. The Hotel staff were great, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was perfect with different levels; basic, medium and full service; meant you only paid for what you wanted. The rooms were clean and well appointed, very comfortable. We were in Lorient for the Interceltic Festival. The Hotel was with walking distance to all the events, yet far enough away to avoid the crowds.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2025

Dear Adelaide , Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed your stay , from our friendly team to the comfortable rooms and flexible breakfast. We're glad that the hotel's proximity to the Interceltic Festival worked perfectly for you, while still providing a peaceful environment We hope to welcome you back soon ! 😊☀️ Warm regards, The Aiden by Best Western Lorient Team

"Nice hotel in the centre of Lorient very well suited for (longer) business trips"
T8717HNpatricks, 10 Février 2024

The Aided Hotel in Lorient is a very clean hotel. It offers a stable WiFi fast enough for Netflix and VPN connections for working. The staff is very friendly (and they all speak English!). The breakfast buffet is nice and (for a hotel) the shower is great!

Owner Response, 10 Février 2024

Dear T8717HNpatricks, It's a pleasure for us to have you as a Best Western member. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay thanks to the breakfast, the style of the room and our staff:) Hope to see you again! Your team Aiden Lorient Centre

"Nice hotel but some issues"
574RichardD, 28 Août 2022

We stayed three nights in this hotel. The hotel is decorated by mementoes from the Compagnie des Indes. The room was nice but did not have a lot od storage space. This may not be an issue for most people. The hotel is next to the train station and there is no view. More importantly there are the following issues: 1. Parking. Municipal parking is available but it is not too convenient to the hotel. It is possible to drive to the hotel to load and unload, but it would be a good idea to speak first to the hotel staff, as it is not straightforward and Google maps would not navigate me there. 2. The breakfast is quite good, but also quite expensive. You would be hard pressed to eat 17 euros worth of food. 3. We did not care for the food at the adjoining restaurant, but there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2022

Cher 574RichardD, Nous vous remercions d'avoir pris le temps de noter votre séjour parmi nous. Nous sommes contents de lire le point positif; la décoration. Nous n'avons effectivement pas de parking attitré à l'hôtel, mais nous avons la chance d'être dans une ville avec des places gratuites partout :) ainsi que 2 parkings souterrains à proximité, s'appelant l'Orientis et Gare Sud. Le prix du petit déjeuner est justifié par une variété de produits frais/bios/locaux. Si vous avez une petit faim, n'hésitez pas à nous le dire et nous facturerons les produits à l'unité la prochaine fois :) Nous aurons plaisir à vous revoir pour une très belle expérience future! Votre équipe Aiden Lorient Centre

"Great hotel"
dennisgoodger, 27 Juin 2022

One of the best hotels we have stayed in with great friendly professional staff nothing was too much trouble for them from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We could not find fault with anything, we were made to feel so welcome as the staff work together so well and make your stay really enjoyable.

Owner Response, 27 Juin 2022

Cher denisgoodger, Nous vous remercions pour votre "super" commentaire :) Nous sommes vraiment touchés par vos retours concernant notre accueil; le fait que nos clients se sentent biens est réellement notre objectif ! Nous serons très contents de vous revoir, dans votre deuxième "chez vous" :D Votre équipe Aiden Lorient Centre

"great new hotel very modern style"
vancevw2112, 30 Juillet 2021

did my first stay at a best western hotel called aiden. love the new looks of the room and facilities there. the room had color changing lights controlled with a tablet which was nice. bed was soft and comfortable. no fridge but i haven't seen that in europe yet so i guess its ok fast wifi in room as well room was very modern design which is nice in the brittany region. antique is ok but the lack of things in those hotels is telling like electrical outlets and so on

"Best address in Lorient "
natalial248, 03 Juin 2021

By far the most friendly and interior design savvy hotel in the area! We stayed 3 nights with our cat (pet friendly hotel!) and absolutely loved the service, decor, welcome cocktail on arrival and conviennent location. Not been surprised by a hotel in a while and Aiden definitely did for price value and confort.

Owner Response, 03 Juin 2021
