Maison Albar Hotels L'Imperator  

In central Nîmes, this Art Deco hotel sits within easy walks of the Museum of Modern Art, Regordane Way, Nîmes Clock Tower and Les Halles de Nîmes. About a kilometre from the official city center, it’s a great base for Roman sites, markets and city strolls.

Sophisticated yet comfortable vibes with 53 individually decorated rooms featuring pillowtop beds, minibars, flat-screen TVs and rainfall showers. The property blends wellness and culture — a spa, massage rooms and steam baths, plus a library and a kids' playroom — and is both pet-friendly and accessible, with multilingual staff.

Dive into indoor and outdoor pools or the hot tub, relax in the spa and solarium, and keep fit in the gym. On-site bars, a poolside bar, restaurant options and 24-hour room service mean you can stay in or head out; concierge, tour assistance and airport transfer services add convenience, with limited parking onsite.

About 2,153 sq ft (200 m²) of event space with five meeting rooms, a computer station, express check-in/check-out and complimentary wireless internet make it practical for meetings and small conferences.

Enjoy French cuisine at L'Impé and a second on-site restaurant, plus a bar and poolside bar for cocktails. Continental breakfast is served daily from 7:00–10:00 for a fee, and 24-hour room service is available.
