Margaret – Hotel Chouleur
Fully renovated in 2020, this former 15th-century private mansion has been transformed into an elegant boutique hotel in the center of Nîmes. With its ten rooms, it is a confidential and exclusive address, favoring a mix of styles and colors. Here, you will find, among other things, a rattan sofa next to a marble coffee table. All, with unfailing taste and precision. A little extra at this place is its Rouge restaurant-bar, offering a unique five-course menu. And to cool off, the outdoor pool awaits you.
Secret Gardens
Hidden in the heart of Old Nîmes, the five-star hotel Jardins Secrets guarantees you a true journey through time, heading back to the 18th century. With only 14 rooms, Jardins Secrets remains an intimate address with a wonderfully enchanting atmosphere: an Italian cloister converted into a Mediterranean garden, four-poster beds, antique bathtubs... everything is there. For a special moment, the Spa can be privatized, offering Ayurvedic and organic treatments. And because the day isn't over yet, enjoy the last hours at the Napoleon III Bar.
Sophie's House
Between the train station and the city center of Nîmes, La Maison de Sophie opts for an Art Deco ambiance. Dating back to the early 20th century, the establishment still boasts many features that give it its very particular charm: stained glass, paneling, mosaics, and even period frescoes. A discreet address if ever there was one, it only has five rooms and two suites, with terraces opening directly onto the garden and the elegant swimming pool.
