We have long searched for a good hotel in Vichy. So many are in the “faded glory” phase of decline it seems. Not the Hotel les Nations. That isn’t to say that its of 21st century design. This is very definitely Art Deco, but modernised and slick. Charming staff at every stage and lovely touches, like the large Winchester type bottle of iced tea, free to all on the bar as we walked in from 39C outside. Our room looked out onto one of those peaceful squares you find in say Bloomsbury, tree lined and with a statue in the middle – but unlike London free parking (no you didn’t misread that!) all the way round. But of course, with this hotel, you’re not paying London prices. It has a small terrace for drinks at the front, but no restaurant (at least we couldn’t see evidence of one). We went out – a short distance to walk to the park that wraps around the town and fronts the Allier – and spent a fabulous evening at the Chill (separate review). Our room was very comfortable for the night and the aircon was very effective. Next morning, we feasted on one of the most sumptuous breakfasts we have had in a long time, including a cheese board that wouldn’t have looked out of place on a posh dinner menu. When we come back to Vichy, we’ll be booking this hotel once again. It’s really very good.
