It’s a 500m walk from the old quarter, but this colourful 18th-century hôtel particulier (private mansion) offers peace and tranquillity. Set around its own garden, it has 19 regal rooms, accessed via plush carpeted corridors and a sweeping central staircase. Most rooms have been modernised. Bonus: there’s free parking inside the house's gates.
