City center
The hub of Le Mans today is place de la République, beneath which, in the underground shopping centre, is the city bus terminal; bus #16 runs between here and the gare SNCF via avenue Général-Leclerc, where the gare routière is located. From place de la République, rue Bolton leads east into rue de l'Étoile, where you'll find the tourist office (Mon–Sat 9am–6pm, Sun 10am–noon, July & Aug also Sun 2–6pm; tel 02.43.28.17.22, www.ville-lemans.fr). Bikes can be rented from Top Team, on place St-Pierre in the old town.

Unless your visit coincides with one of the big racing events during April, June or September, you should be able to find accommodation easily without having to book, though there's nothing in the old town.
