Hôtel Coeur De Loire, hotel in Nantes

The Coeur De Loire is located in Nantes, 1.7 km from the Chateau Des Ducs De Bretagne. The breakfast is served on the indoor or outdoor terrace, overlooking the garden.

It's a little outside of the centre, but the better for it (not least because parking is so expensive), and easy to walk into town (20 mins) or catch and bus/tram from. Lovely owner who gave us loads of great information (there is a sheet with local and central restaurants). Great room with a garden view, very clean and with good furnishings and bathroom. There is a safe, a fridge and a kettle. Would go again without a doubt. They obviously put a lot of love and care into the place.

Hotel Voltaire Opera Nantes Centre, hotel in Nantes

Hotel The Originals Nantes Voltaire Opéra (ex Qualys-Hotel) is located in central Nantes, 50 metres from the Théâtre Graslin and a 10-minute walk from Machines de l'île.

The location is perfect. The room was large and everywhere was spotlessly clean. The staff were wonderful, very helpful and friendly. Due to flight times I arrived (very) early but they were happy to let me drop off my luggage before checking in time. They also allowed me to leave it at the hotel for a couple of hours after checking out.

A fantastic location, very central. Room was very comfortable and sufficient for our needs. The bed was very comfortable. It was quiet also considering it was in the centre of the town. The pillows were also very comfortable. The staff were excellent, so helpful and very friendly. Great parking facilities too.

    This attraction was our entire purpose for coming to Nantes,...

    This attraction was our entire purpose for coming to Nantes, at the request of our teen son. We were disappointed to not get to ride the elephant. It would have been wise to make purchase our entrance and book a ride 48 hours in advance, since the website does not allow reservations in less time than that. It was delightful, but very busy in August. We had to wait in line to purchase entrance to the machines for over an hour shortly after they opened. There was no to-go coffee anywhere nearby to make the wait more relaxed. Definitely use the App and scan for information in English, all the guides' information is in French.

    A stunning place to visit for children and adults alike.

    A stunning place to visit for children and adults alike. Intriguing moving sculptures with working mechanisms that can be seen, studied and marvelled at. What’s best is that the pieces are interactive and have the wow factor. Try not to do too much research before you do that the surprises are there to experience first hand.

    The mechanical elephant was awesome.

    The mechanical elephant was awesome. We waited in a queue for quite some time but it was worth it. It was raining cats and dogs on the day we went and was bitterly cold. The elephant still went out. Watching the elephant move around was just as good as the ride.
