The Originals City Hôtel du Grand Monarque Nantes Gare
About this venue
A straightforward two-star hotel near the cathedral, Jardin des Plantes and railway station, with a small scale and breakfast service. It provides a value-led alternative to Nantes's design hotels. It is for the traveller who would rather spend on dinner and culture than an oversized lobby, while staying close to rail links and the cathedral quarter.
