Loved it - and loved Nimes! The hotel is located adjacent to the gardens and just a short walk to the Arena and Roman museum. It is an elegant and historic hotel, where Hemingway, Picasso and - yes - Ava Gardner - once stayed. Rooms are very comfortable and quiet, beds are wonderful and hotel amenities (indoor and outdoor pools, a spa, bar and (expensive) restaurant more than you would normally find in French hotels. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. There is a large plaza (Assas) just steps away with several very good restaurants (e.g., Table d'Assas), Very much enjoyed our stay.
(just to note - loved the hotel but were underwhelmed by the restaurants - the Brasserie is located in a hallway off the main reception area and is not conducive to a romantic dinner; the restaurant is very expensive). But - the hotel was wonderful!
