Great boutique hotel in quiet part of Nantes
Very nice boutique hotel near beautiful Jardin des Plantes and a stone throw from the city centre. It's a converted chapel and beautiful details have been kept to create a modern stylish space. Staff was lovely and breakfast delicious.

Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. My room was very clean and comfortable. The bonbons waiting in my room were a delicious surprise. Proximity to the train station was very convenient. The nearby park and shopping district were very walkable, yet the hotel still felt private and quiet.

Staff member makes for memorable visit
This stay was the last night of a three week holiday which was planned last January as a stop over en route back to get our ferry. I thought i had prebooked parking but a change in their available parking meant i did not get a space. However Alexanne on reception came to rescue and not only gave up her space she also booked us a very good restaurant at short notice. Whilst Our room was very tight spacewise the hotel is lovely. i will know to book a bigger room. we had a super stay because Alexanne went the extra mile for us after our long journey. Thank you it made a huge difference.

What a well located nice place.
I had a pleasant stay here. Very comfortable and modern accommodation in a former church.
Staff were very pleasant and helpful.
Close proximity to town centre, numerous decent restaurants and less than five minutes from the train station. Will definitely stay here again when in Nantes.

We stayed 1 night at SOZO and wicked we stayed longer. It was a very special and unique experience. We booked into a room with a stained glass window above our bed and it was beautiful to watch it glow and light up in the morning.
