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.
