In family rooms, the spaces are more generous, and the layout facilitates cohabitation, even for four people.
A few meters away, the Little Sévigné, a hotel residence affiliated with the establishment, offers 15 rooms designed to provide greater autonomy. A kitchenette, a secure fridge, and a dining area allow guests to organize their days at their own pace while enjoying hotel comfort.

An independent apartment completes the offering. It consists of a living room with an open kitchen, a spacious bedroom with a king-size bed, and a lovely bathroom. Ideal for short and medium stays, this space combines the generosity of an entire apartment with the support of a nearby hotel.
In the morning, a sweet and savory buffet awaits you in a bright room with a view of the street.
