Pros:

L'accueil a été rapide, on a pu laisser nos bagages le temps d'aller se restaurer. Décoration et style de l'hôtel incroyables, la chambre est très bien aménagée, avec tout le nécessaire (bouteille d'eau, petits biscuits, grand chauffage, climatisation, tv, articles de bains), bien insonorisée, la température parfaite, la douche séparée des WC, la literie très confortable. Il n'y avait pas de vis-à-vis aux fenêtres, le cadre était parfait pour un petit séjour. L'hôtel est situé juste à côté du jardin des Plantes (sympa à visiter) et à quelques minutes de la gare de Nantes, très pratique. Nous n'avons pas testé le petit-déjeuner. Carte de la ville avec les bonnes adresses où se restaurer fournie à l'accueil.

Top Location in Nantes
Pros:

Spezielle Location in ehemaliger Kapelle. Zimmer geschmackvoll eingerichet. Frühstück klein aber fein.
Personal sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Möblieriung schick aber Sitzgelegenheiten in der Lobby nicht konfortabel. 1-2 St
Stühle und Tisch im Garten fehlen.
Lage aber top, unmittelbar in der Nähe des Bahnhofs und direkt vor dem botanischen Garten, genial.

Cons:

Alles ok.

Pros:

Tout était très bien, malheureusement grosse déception.. nous avions réservé une chambre supérieur et on s’est retrouvé avec une tout petite chambre. On s’attendait à avoir des vitraux mais l’accueil nous informe que c’est uniquement sur demande spécifique (qu’étant donné que la réservation soit faite par booking, les chambres ne correspondent pas malgré un pris de 260€).

Besonderes Hotel - werden wir so schnell nicht vergessen..
Pros:

das Zimmer in einer alten Kirche war toll - im zentrum steht eine glasfenster mit Glasmosaiken. ich bin fast wieder gläubig geworden.. das frühstück war excklusiv, freundlicher service, sehr angenehme kleinigkeiten abseits des üblichen hotel frühstücks. vom bahnhof war das hotel über einen kurzen gang durch den botanischen garten in 10 minuten zu erreichen.

Fabulous strong recommend (and this is the second attempt at submitting a review, hence the delay!)
Pros:

A super special conversion, welcoming staff and lovely (and surprising) to have decent concierge/room service. Good fresh breakfast, and the first hotel we've ever enjoyed the room service menu choices, generous, and well priced. The overall vibe is that the staff really care about the hotel and their guests and are happy to be there. Plus lovely location, everything within walking distance, starting and ending your day meandering through the beautiful botanic garden on the doorstep. If you are visiting Nantes out of summer season you will also appreciate the effective and responsive bedroom heating!

Cons:

Appreciate you cant have everything but the 'cool' bar is really a part of the reception area, it would be lovely for there to be a cosier snug area, expecially in the colder weather. But the conversion has been thoughtfully done and I imagine that was the compromise.

Great location but disappointing room for the money.
Pros:

No character to room was expecting to feel like being in an old church but, all character removed and a very modern clinical room!

Cons:

Location and the breakfast were outstanding.

Emplacement idéal !!!
Pros:

La chambre, le personnel très accueillant et dévoué !

Dommage que le petit déjeuner soit seulement possible à l’intérieur. Un Pt coin dans le jardin serait top.

Perfect stay at a charming boutique hotel with exceptional staff
Pros:

This boutique hotel offers a fantastic location near the city center and transport, providing a peaceful retreat right next to a park. The unique atmosphere blends modern design with the historic charm of a former chapel, creating a calm and inspiring environment. Exceptionally helpful and friendly staff at the reception made my stay memorable, and I will certainly return.

Cons:

A top mattress would be appreciated for comfort.
