Occupying two interconnected 16th-century mansions on a narrow backstreet, this Best Western-affiliated hotel has rooms split across three ‘comfort’ categories. They’re a bit of a mixed bag – some are small with heritage furniture, others more spacious with views over the private garden. It feels a bit dated and in need of a touch-up. The nearest parking is at Parking Préfecture.
