Hôtel Imperator
The grand dame of Nîmes, a favourite of Hemingway, has reemerged from a five-star facelift looking more luxurious than ever. Chic styling smoothly blends Art Deco features with creamy hues and sumptuous velvets, while top notch facilities include two pools, a cocooning spa, and fine-dining overseen by Pierre Gagnaire.
