Chambres d'hôtes Le Mans : Le Clos d'Hauteville — Hotel in Le Mans

Got here late after a 5+ hour delay on Eurotunnel. Got a little confused with our Sat Nav as it kept showing that we had arrived, but I couldn't see the B&B - called the owner and he guided me back to the street on the 'phone and stood on the corner - the building was on the left as we came into Le Man from the North and for some reason only known to myself I insisted on looking only to the right!||||As we had arrived so late (9 pm) the owner let me park the car inside the grounds of the house, rather than in the separate parking.||||We were quickly shown up to our room which was massive, with a bathroom which was bigger than some flats I've stayed in.||||As to the B&B itself, it is a classic French Belle Epoque building with a superb garden where, had we been staying longer than one night, we could happily have spent a few hours just sitting with a bottle of wine.||||Unfortunately we were late, so the owner guided us to the main square (Place de la Republique) which was about 10 minutes' walk away where we found a top-quality restaurant still open.||||Position of the B&B is excellent - as mentioned only 10 minutes away from the main square and the Old Town.||||Breakfast was plentiful and varied - guests sitting around a communal table and eating from a buffet, including freshly-baked pastries and cakes, with hot drinks brought by the owner who was happy to chat and give tips on things to do and places to go.||||We will be back - ideally for a few more...

Beautiful B&B. The house is stunning and the rooms are large. The bed was comfortable and the shower good with plenty of hot water. The room was very quiet. The breakfast was continental and there was a lot of it. The house was a 5 minute walk to the city center -- could not have been a better location. We did not make use of it, but the garden was also available for use. As wonderful as the accommodation was, the hosts make this truly outstanding. Bernard and his wife were simply wonderful. They provided lots of information about Le Mans and great directions. We arrived and left by train, and Bernard picked us up at the train station and delivered us back. He even offered to take us to see some of the sites that were further afield from Le Mans....

Beautiful B&B run by Bernard and his wife. Gorgeous 19th century house and garden with lovely beautifully decorated rooms. Extremely clean and very comfortable. Only a 10 minute walk to the cathedral so it’s location is excellent and very close to all medieval centre. Breakfast is generous with fresh croissants, bread, coffee, tea, juice, fruit, yoghurts, and their own homemade jams including one made of grapes from the garden according to a recipe passed down from Bernard’s wife’s mother. Both Bernard and his wife are charming and kind with an interest to help and recommend things to see around Le Mans. It was a lovely stay and I heartily recommend! Merci à la...
