Description for B&B:
Welcome to our home, a sixteenth-century hotel particulier that we have lovingly renovated to combine the charm of its authentic past with modern comforts. Each room features its own bathroom and toilet, with Italian-style open showers. The bedrooms are furnished with high-quality mattresses and cotton satin sheets, while the towels are fluffy and the furniture is antique. Our location in the heart of Saintes, a city rich in art and history dating back to Roman times, places us in the pedestrian district. Our aromatic herb garden is a delightful surprise, offering a variety of flavors and serving as the perfect setting for breakfast when the weather permits. We also offer table d'hote with a reservation. The living room boasts a large library with over 500 references on the arts of the table in both English and French. Additionally, it is equipped with a large screen TV with cable in multiple languages. Of course, the house also provides WIFI for our guests' convenience.Reviews
