Attractions & Facilities

In the guest book a recent visitor wrote « It was with a certain amount of emotion that we discovered Villa la Gloriette. Its dreamlike and restful romantic atmosphere, greatly seduced us.

Villa la Gloriette is only two minutes away from Boulingrin metro station and two stops from the train station or the center of the city. Another guest commented: We found ourselves in a green haven with the sensation of freshness and peaceful silence only broken by the occasional chirping of birds in the tall ceder tree. On a table at the entrance to the guest house a glass of cider was waiting for us along with the smiles of our hosts. This gave us the immediate impression of being welcomed.
