Citotel des Messageries  

In the heart of Saintes' pedestrian quarter, a short stroll from the Charente river and key landmarks like Musee Presidial, the Arch of Germanicus, Saintes Cathedral and Saint Pierre Cathedral. Walkable to local sights and within easy reach of Saintes Golf and the nearby coast attractions.

Housed in a 17th‑century former post office clad in white Charentes stone with a Roman‑tiled roof, this intimate hotel feels like a peaceful urban oasis. The 34 rooms feature minibars and satellite TV, with cribs and rollaway beds available on request. A sunlit courtyard turns into a summer lounge for relaxed drinks and downtime.

Free Wi‑Fi across the property and a small garden set the mood; there’s a massage room for wellness moments. Playrooms for kids, a karaoke corner, a library and a bowling club keep guests entertained. Self parking is available on site (charges may apply).

Complimentary high‑speed wired internet and a public computer station keep you connected. A 269 sq ft (25 sq m) meeting room and express check‑in make short business stays easy.

Room service is available during limited hours, and the courtyard converts to a summer lounge where you can enjoy a drink after exploring the town. Plenty of local Charentes eateries are steps away for regional flavors.
