Hôtel Imperator

Bien situé, l’hôtel donne côté rue, et la circulation s’entend malheureusement un peu trop de la chambre. Des imperfections dans la salle de bain (joints noircis, mitigeur dévissé, toilettes pas si propres) viennent ternir l’image qu’on peut se faire d’un 4 étoiles.
Le personnel est aimable, certains sont même très sympathiques.
Côté restaurant, on mange bien, le patio doit être formidable l’été, et on apprécie le salon avec cheminée allumée l’hiver. Le petit déjeuner est vraiment top, rien né manqué, et tout est à volonté.

Boutique. Cozy. Fancy. Vintage. Professional.
These are words I think of when I think of the Hotel Imperator. I absolutely loved this little gem in Nimes. The hotel is old, that is for sure. However, some remodeling has been done to update just enough that you still get the old, classic feel of the hotel while enjoying modern-​day amenities like a nice bathroom and TV.
I enjoyed the feel of this hotel because much of it was left like it was in the 19^th century, including the original door keys and elevator. The rooms were a bit tight (especially if there were multiple beds), but it was a really nice kind of cozy that was luxurious.
The continental breakfast was good, including an omelette bar and the prices for drinks and late-​night snacks were reasonable. Each room had a mini-​bar, as well, which made snacking convenient before turning out the lights.
This is a really great hotel in a nice, small town. You can walk through most of Nimes from this spot and you’re only about five minutes away from Les Arenes. Lots of good restaurants nearby and the hotel serves dinner if you’re tired and don’t feel like moving much. Highly recommended if you’re ever in the area.
