JARDINS SECRETS

In the heart of ancient Nimes we have dreamed Jardins Secrets where beneath the shimmer of chandeliers intertwines treasures of 18th century from France and Andalousian Spain -A hideaway boutique hotel hidden in Old Nimes -Gardens filled with Mediterranean fragrances - bougainvillea - palms - orange trees and the soft murmur of water caressing the marble of an antique fountain -Difficult to imagine that you are in the heart of a city -A magical place beyond time where one is drawn to lounging under the olive trees or in the refined and hushed elegance of the 18th century salons -Beside a fireplace where in winter a comforting fire crackles while outside the Mistral wind blows - winged armchairs and sofas recall the decided taste of the epoch for the art of conversation -Canopied beds - ancient roses and period porcelains create the tone for rooms with an ambiance of soft spoken gallantry -Bathrooms become boudoirs with antique baths draped in silks and brocaded fabrics -The red exterior walls of the 18th century house resembling those of a Tuscan villa illuminated by the Mediterranean sud give way once the evening comes to a residence lit up by the glimmer of candlelight -A luxuriant cloistered garden is accessed by several of the salons as well as Napoleon III bar -We welcome you to discover our Source des Secrets - a celebrated roman style Spa offering ayurvedic and natural treatments-After a hammam in the steam room you can have an ayurvedic massage in the Roman styled Spa -An enchanted site one reluctantly leaves for a few hours in order to roam the streets of antique Nimes - discover the cities of Arles and Avignon or perhaps gallop on horseback in the Camargue National Park - hike in the Cevennes forest - classified as a UNESCO World Heritage - or explore the Uzege
