Maison Albar Hotels L’Imperator

My wife and booked a stay in Nimes to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary at Maison Albar - L'Imperator, and the whole experience from beginning to end was like a familiar and pleasant dream! Maison Albar – L’Imperator in Nîmes—a beautifully restored Art déco gem featuring elegant interiors, lush gardens, serene spa areas, and inviting pools. Situated just steps from iconic Nîmes landmarks like Maison Carrée and Jardins de la Fontaine, the hotel boasts an enviable location in the city’s historic heart. We walked into Nimes several times a day and enjoyed relaxing at the hotel, pool and spa in between, which was refreshing and so relaxing. All the staff were wonderful, and the Piscine and Spa staff were super welcoming every day. This was honestly the wonderful experience we have enjoyed, and Nimes is idillic and wonderful to explore. Au Revoir We will be back someday!

We stayed at Maison Albar L'Imperator for our wedding anniversay and were pleased with their recognition of our 55th. Our room was wonderful and the rose petals and orchid made us feel like this hotel went out of their way to help us celebrate. We celebrated our anniversay dinner at the Pierre Gagnaire, Duende, restaurant in this hotel and the 2 star Michelin restaurant was exceptional with the service and the Chef's nightly selection being a tasting adventure that was complete and satisfying. The hotel is only a 3 block walk to the Roman Ruins and old town center with lots of Bars and Restaurants. We hope to visit Nimes again and would love to stay at Maison Albar Hotels L'Imperator again.

This is one of the nicest hotels where we have stayed in France. In fact, I would rated in the top 10 of our visit almost 50 countries. The hotel itself is beautiful in the old style, but with modern touches. The room was very comfortable and housekeeping cleaned up every day. most of the staff with whom we were spoken English and went out of their way to make sure we are enjoying our stay. The hotel has a spa and two pools: indoor and outdoor, but we didn’t get a chance to use those hotel is very well located parking cost about €35 a night, but you could drop your car off at the hotel (It might be a good idea to call the front desk when you’re about two minutes away so the concierge can come out and keep cars behind you from blocking your ability to back into a temporary parking place. From there, they would take it to a secure garage. Whenever we needed the car, it would be ready in a few minutes. I think breakfast cost €30 but I can’t remember but the food and service was excellent. Although some mornings we walked across the street to a patisserie for coffee and a croissant. I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough.

Great experience. I love the warm welcoming with one of the staff opened the door for me, another one who take my luggage to the room, and the champagne that they offer. The room was big and could easily suit for 2 people. The bed was comfortable and I loved the shower there. Plus big bonus for having "Q-tips" in the bathroom. The hotel located near the Jardin de la fontaine and Maison Carrée, but it's possible to walk to the Amphitheatre as well. There is a bus stop near the hotel. Thank you for the welcoming :)

From the moment we arrived at L’Imperator Maison Albar we knew we had chosen the right hotel for our stay in Nimes. This is an EXCEPTIONAL 5-star hotel and has truly set the benchmark for luxury and hospitality. Every detail of our stay was meticulously catered to, making it a very memorable experience. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a very warm welcome from GM Romaric Blanvillain. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and we were shown around the beautiful facilities and on to our room by the charming Rievelinio. The hotel combines class, elegance and warmth, with beautiful interior decor and clever use of space and architecture. The pool is heavenly - in fact there are two pools to choose from, an indoor pool next to the spa and an outdoor pool with plenty of sun loungers and peace and quiet. By the pool we were looked after by Quentin with an impressive level of courtesy and efficiency. Breakfast was wonderful (thanks to Natalie and Romane) and served in a calm setting, with the choice of indoor or outdoor seating. What truly sets L’Imperator apart is the exceptional service provided by the team and the way they make guests feel. Many hotels try to be hospitable because that is their job, they are ‘paid to smile’, but the Albar staff are happy to be there and show genuine care for each guest- even remembering guests names when greeting them. Special mention to the Hero’s Pierre and Benjamin, who both went above and beyond in their assistance and care. And the exceptional Fabien (so speedy) Tristan and Frederic, Kaoutar, Doriane, Karla, Clara, Maxime, Imrane, Sabah and Claire. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a truly exceptional stay. We have already re-booked to stay again…it is worth visiting Nimes just to stay at L’Imperator.
