nice place for that city
Pros:

it's a nice hotel especially for such a small city where there are hardly 5 star hotels. The amenities are good and the staff are very amicable and helpful.

Cons:

chargeable parking (in my opinion it must be free given the high hotel stay rate already), just one free bottle of still water in the room whereas we were two. This is really way too little.

Pros:

É’ un vero 5 stelle, camere compatte ma ottimamente arredate. Tutti i comfort disponibili.

Cons:

Le camere che guardano la strada sono troppo rumorose per il traffico, dovevano mettere degli infissi isolati meglio.

Bon séjour mais ne vaut pas le prix d’un 5 étoiles
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien situé pour visiter Nîmes et
La Maison Cocteau est très spacieuse et bien agencée. Dans la Maison, petite attention gourmande très appréciée.

Cons:

Nous avons été très déçu par le petit-déjeuner qui était pas digne d’un 5 étoiles . Peu de choix, seulement un fromage en tranche carré et du jambon blanc, c’est tout niveau formage et charcuterie. À part des cakes maison le buffet était très pauvre et la présentation ne donnait pas très envie . Pour 36 euros ça ne les vaut pas du tout .
Nous avons voulu prendre un apéro sur le patio en fin de journée et le serveur nous a vu car il a été appelé par les gens à côté mais n’est jamais venu vers nous. On a attendu 10 minutes puis on s’est levé il était debout à ne rien faire bref !! Dommage…
