Radisson Blu Hotel Nantes

Radisson Blu Hotel Nantes

10/10 Excellent
"The building was unique and beautiful. The suite was enormous even for American standard. It looked newly renovated, clean and stylish. The AC was super strong. The staff was very kind and helpful, and friendly to the children. The breakfast buffet was convenient and had enough options for everybody. Having the small park and playground next door was a great plus for families with young children. We had a very pleasant stay."

Chachacha Hôtel

10/10 Excellent
"Perfect for a Saturday night stop before early Navette bus to the airport as no early trains from Pornic on Sundays. Easy walk into Old town from the hotel through the Chateau. Room small (like in the room we were in, you have to open your suitcase in the room 'hallway' opposite the bathroom). However, rooms are super clean, decent size shower with rainfall and non rainfall head. Shower pressure really good even from the 6th floor! View from room 603 straight out onto Cathedral. Airconditioning in the room, able to turn on/off but the temp is set centrally. Electric blackout blinds in the rooms."

Every member of staff was super welcoming. The family room was comfortable, dark and the quiet. Everyone slept well here.
