Le Grand Hôtel Dieu by Sowell Collection

Nîmes is one of the most charming cities in southern France, often called the "French Rome" for its extraordinary, perfectly preserved Roman heritage. Elegant, sunny, and rich in history, it combines ancient art, Provençal atmosphere, and quality of life. The city's symbol is the Arènes de Nîmes, one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world, still a venue for events, concerts, and shows. Among the most beloved places are the Jardins de la Fontaine, one of the first public gardens in Europe, ideal for relaxing strolls among fountains, Roman ruins and panoramic views from the Tour Magne. Nîmes is a vibrant and authentic city, with markets, bustling squares, boutiques, outdoor cafés, and a cuisine that blends Provençal flavors with Languedoc traditions. It's also a perfect base for exploring the surrounding area, such as the famous Pont du Gard, the Cévennes, or the Mediterranean coast. Located in the historic center of Nîmes, just steps from the spectacular Roman Arena, Le Grand Hôtel Dieu is a destination that combines history, elegance, and modern comfort in an unforgettable hospitality experience in the South of France. The hotel is housed in a restored historic building, where frescoes, period details, and a grand monumental staircase recount the fascinating past of this thousand-year-old city. The 70 rooms, suites, and junior suites are air-conditioned and tastefully furnished to offer guests a welcoming and bright space. Each room has free Wi-Fi and a safe. At La Table Consulaire restaurant, you can enjoy high-quality French bistronomic dishes, perfect for starting the day or ending it with a refined culinary experience. The breakfast buffet includes sweet and savory options for an energetic wake-up call before exploring the city. For a moment of pure relaxation after a day of sightseeing, the hotel's Eliospa is a true haven: sauna, hammam, duo bath, sensory shower, and wellness treatments (reservations required) with an entrance fee. The space is designed to rejuvenate body and mind, making your stay even more special.
