Liked: Room comfort
Lovely hotel.
Great location, and felt safe. A small walk through the station to the main tourist area for the chateau. Would stay again.
Great hotel close to so much! Nice quiet location but close to the central town. There was a snaffu at check-in, which is why I took off a star, but she was new staff and it was rectified and cleared up after I spoke to reception. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone.
The staff was very nice and bilingual - I speak a little French and they totally helped me understand what I needed to know for my stay. The tool was compact but had everything we need and a HUGE bathroom with a really fab rain shower. It was very connected to the train station so very convenient to go to Paris , but close to the Nantes city center, we could walk everywhere.
Nice room, relaxing hotel. It was nice to look out the window at night at watch people coming and going from the central train station. Parking was not an issue. Would stay again
Excellent hotel with easy access to Nantes trams (three minutes' walk across the station). Really good breakfasts, staff who seem to care. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Nantes.
Beautiful, modern hotel right next to train station and car rentals.
Easily accessible for persons with limited mobility.
Beautiful, large bedroom with huge bathroom!
This is the perfect hotel to stay at for Hellfest. Located right next to the train station, it made going back & forth to Clisson easy. We unfortunately don’t speak French and they have several staff members that speak very good English. The rooms are adorable and spacious for Europe, with a waterfall shower and mini fridge. It’s an easy walk to bars, coffee shops, restaurants, and shops, a 5 min walk to the castle and a 10 min Uber to THE GALERIE DES MACHINES, a must see.
We spent 1 night.
Appreciated: Room design is modern, smart, practical. Good lighting. Dinner in the restaurant was surprisingly good, excellent plat du jour. Front desk personnel were helpful. Water and coffee were readily available.
Proximity to the train station—1 minute-can’t be beat. And easy to walk into town (one set of stairs.)
We paid extra for better room with Canal view. Very nice: plenty of natural light and fresh air. Comfortable bed. Large bathroom with separate toilet. Great spacious shower.
All in all excellent rapport quality/price. Would go again.
Small downside. Room could have been a bit cleaner. A used towel from previous occupants was left behind in the room. Towels seemed a bit worn.
I stayed in the hotel for 6 days in August 2023. I was a bit worried about the noise from the trains since the hotel is located right next to the Gare de Nantes. Fortunately, the noise was not an issue in my room that was facing the canal. However, it may be different in rooms that face the railway station or the rail tracks. The hotel is a 10 minutes' walk to the old downtown. The surrounding area (the south station) is quite well kept. The breakfast was fine with good selections. If you can add breakfast at a low price (say, $10 per person per day), I would strongly recommend it. I ask the hotel to serve hot potatoes, which are not expensive but filling.
This hotel was perfectly located for us since it is steps from the train station. Likewise it is very close to downtown restaurants and shopping, the castle, Tour de Lu, etc. The spacious room was very quiet (sonorisé) so no need for ear plugs and had a lot of windows. No hallway noise. Stairs are easy to find (I always use the stairs instead of the elevator except on arrival and departure. The breakfast is very good although I had to always ask for "HOT HOT" water for my morning tea. The restaurant, for lunch or dinner, for example, is quite expensive so I recommend go to local restaurants. Bedding was clean-smelling, towels in good shape. The drain in the shower in my room needed to be unplugged so after my shower there was quite a bit of water on the floor. The desk went the length of the wall which was so convenient.
Great stay but price of breakfast for child crazy!
Made the mistake of not checking price of breakfast, as our arrival flight was delayed and very late in..... Buffet breakfast was lovely, however €17 euro per head (same price for a child).....nearly died of shock!!! Room needs a proper hoovering around perimeter. Nice size and bathroom immaculate. Would stay again.... But not have breakfast!!!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
They were rude from the beginning. We left the next day with a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door. When we returned, it was clear that someone had been in our room—they had moved most of my wife’s belongings and taken a room key. When I called the receptionist, she simply said, “Oh, that’s not supposed to happen,” and then abruptly ended the conversation and hung up.
