If price is your main filter, it is the most expensive of our three Nancy picks, and the Best Value option scored higher.
Location and getting around
The address is 56 Place Mgr Ruch, in Nancy City Centre. Nancy Cathedral is listed at 0 km, so the hotel sits on the cathedral square.
The Museum of Fine Arts of Nancy is about 0.4 km away, around 5 minutes on foot. The Church of Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours is about 1.9 km away, roughly 24 minutes, a longer walk but still possible.
Walking times are straight-line estimates and have not been verified. Parking is not listed, so if you drive, ask the hotel where to leave the car.
What guests say
Our data does not include a summary of what guests like or dislike here. The 8.7 score from more than 2,000 reviews and the 9.7 location score are the clearest signals we have.
For a fuller picture, read recent reviews about room size, noise from the square and the spa. Those points are not covered in our data.
Price and what you get, compared with our other two picks
