Great hotel in former church
Really cool hotel in former church. Room was a good size and bed was comfortable. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Easy walk from train station, and right next to a large park, which is nice, but it is several blocks to restaurants and any kind of retail. Not an issue for us, but guests should be prepared for that.

Well positioned and quiet.
The location of the hotel is perfect. It is situated in a quiet street alongside the Botanical Gardens, very near the train station and tram stop with easy access by transport or on foot to all Nantes has to offer. The parking for the hotel is a payable extra. The renovation of this former church to hotel is well done. There are photos displayed in the hotel which record the work. Evidence of the church is still to be seen inside the hotel. As for the exterior, little has changed. We had a warm and helpful welcome. Our room was comfortable, warm and quiet, but smaller than we had hoped for. We were surprised to have paper cups for tea or coffee in our room. We cannot comment on the breakfast as at an additional 38euros per couple, we thought it expensive.

Modern comforts in a renovated old church
We thought it would be cool to stay in an old church. It was also very close to the train station which was convenient. The main lobby was really beautiful, retaining elements of the church with the windows and the staff very friendly and welcoming. Our room was very clean and comfortable but very little of the church was noticeable in it except maybe the window. I think leaving some of the walls bare would have added to the charm. Our room didn't look anything like the Hotels.com photo.

Hotel with tiny by interesting rooms
A church that is converted to a hotel. The rooms are interesting because of the church windows in each room. However, the rooms are real tiny (no room even for a small desk). The tiny bathroom is separated from the room with a set of bars. The beds are marginally acceptable for comfort. Otherwise, the rooms are clean. The location of the hotel is good -- right across from a park that opens to the center of the city on the other side.

A beautiful hotel, unique hotel with sparkling ultra-modern rooms in an ancient renovated church, The lobby has the soaring ceiling and stained glass windows of a chapel while the rooms are decorated in striking colors and offer thick terry cloth robes and a welcome snack ocake and fruit, Staff was very helpful. Great location near the station on the street bordering the beatiful botanical garden, so it was convenient but quiet. Sozo means imagination in Japanese and it sums it up.
