Fodor's Expert Review L'Hermitage Gantois Hotel

224 rue Pierre Mauroy, Lille, Hauts-de-France, 59000, France Fodor's Choice

Set in a redbrick, 15th-century hospital that is bisected by a quaint, white chapel, this upscale Marriott perfectly marries the architectural elements of a historical monument with the contemporary needs of 21st-century guests. Preserved from the past are aged wood-panel walls, 17th-century tapestries, statuary, and stained glass. Guests take advantage of the lovely glassed-in courtyards, Nespresso machines, and minimalist-style room furnishings. L'Hermitage's two restaurants serve gourmet French cuisine, and the glass-roof bar is a nice place to unwind.
