Comfortsble

The hotel was ok. We would not stay here again. The room was small and we were always left with the feeling of being cramped. Too often doors were slammed at late or early hours. You could hear water running from other rooms. The breakfast was expensive for what was provided. We have been traveling in France for 6 weeks now and this hotel was at the bottom of our list - despite great marketing. I was surprise at the resort fee since it was not a resort!

A very pleasant surprise

The owners have done a fabulous job in converting this former church property into a hotel. The desk staff were exceptionally helpful at check in giving us great advice on things to see and do in the limited time we had. Their dinner recommendations were great. We were very pleasantly surprised as to how good this hotel would be.

All good, but a couple of design faults. 1. It is too easy to bump the hot/cold lever in the shower which could really harm someone. Also the shower curtain could use some weighting at the bottom to prevent it billowing in while you shower. 2. Closet hangers face the wrong way making hanging things up inconvenient

Great boutique hotel in quiet part of Nantes

Very nice boutique hotel near beautiful Jardin des Plantes and a stone throw from the city centre. It's a converted chapel and beautiful details have been kept to create a modern stylish space. Staff was lovely and breakfast delicious.

Staff member makes for memorable visit

This stay was the last night of a three week holiday which was planned last January as a stop over en route back to get our ferry. I thought i had prebooked parking but a change in their available parking meant i did not get a space. However Alexanne on reception came to rescue and not only gave up her space she also booked us a very good restaurant at short notice. Whilst Our room was very tight spacewise the hotel is lovely. i will know to book a bigger room. we had a super stay because Alexanne went the extra mile for us after our long journey. Thank you it made a huge difference.
