Le Mans train station

In addition to simplifying your arrival if you choose to come to Le Mans by train, the station area offers many advantages. Central point of the public transport network, it gives you easy access to the two tram lines that crisscross the city, allowing you to reach the city center and the surroundings of the Bugatti circuit.

Rather residential, the station area is the right compromise to sleep in a quiet environment, being close to the city center. By car, you are about fifteen minutes from the circuit, when traffic is smooth.

Jean Jaurès

Located to the south of the city, the Jean Jaurès district is closer to the gates of the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit, accessible by car in 10 minutes or by tram. Further away from the city center, it is still possible to get there quickly thanks to public transport.

Moreover, the sector has a more spacious accommodation offer. Large apartment or house, groups and families with children will be able to find comfortable accommodation for up to 8 people

Libération

To the west of the city, the Libération district is close to the quays of Sarthe. With many shops and supermarkets, it allows easy access to the ring road to get to the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit by car.

A little less well served by tram lines, the Liberation district nevertheless offers the comfort of proximity. Indeed, you can get to both the city center and the train station in about twenty minutes on foot.

downtown

The city center of Le Mans consists of several emblematic neighborhoods: the Cité Plantagenêt – also called Vieux-Mans, the Prémartine neighborhood – close to the Jardin des Plantes and the residential area Bollée / Saint-Croix.

By choosing accommodation in the heart of the city, you will have easy access to all the off-circuit events and animations such as the Weighing (technical checks of the vehicles that will start the race) and the traditional Drivers’ Parade. In addition, you can enjoy all the comforts of city life: local shops, restaurants, bars and public transport.

neighbouring cities

If the downtown areas of Le Mans offer many advantages in terms of practicality and accessibility, the outskirts of the city is an option to consider if you are looking for a larger accommodation (house, cottage, villa…) or a quieter environment. Thus, the cities of Bener, Yvré l’Évêque or even Changé, located to the southeast of the agglomeration Mancelle, remain close to the circuit by car.
