tile, it was easy to see that this was a very loved building by all locals and a tip of the hat to its history.


Nantes’ is situated on the Loire as previously mentioned, therefore your offering of seafood is second to none! Another restaurant visited for lunch was Café Restaurant La Civelle. It was here at the little café by the sea that we had to arrive at by boat taxi that I had one of the most stunning lobster, crab, cravettes and more, all served up in a brass skillet! Desert was of course the same in all restaurant café grandmand!


Where to stay…


The city has an array of hotels, hostels and artistic retreats to meet just about anyone’s needs!


If it’s a more unique experience you are looking for then why not stay in a hamster wheel… yes a hamster wheel! La Villa Hamster (2 Rue Malherbe, tel. +33 066420 3109) for €109 per night! This is a typicality within this region of France, the more “out there” the better! Another personal favourite is the bespoke 2 man b&b that has been developed on top of a chimney! The art installation is that of Japanese artist Tatzu Nishi who has made his name by creating out-of- place and out-of-scale public spaces. Yet if you just require a comfortable city based hotel that meets all needs then I can greatly recommend Hotel Pommeraye which is close to Passage Pommeraye, Chateau des Ducs de Bretagne, and Place Royale. Also nearby are Theatre Graslin and Place du Commerce. Dining options at this Nantes hotel include a restaurant and a bar/ lounge. Additional amenities include a library, multilingual staff, and tour ticket assistance.


In short, Nantes is a destination in which you can guaranteed to be delighted, intrigued, fascinated, confused and above all captivated by its many charms.
