The best in the center, La Tentiaire has classy rooms with wood accents in a renovated administrative penitentiary building. Some rooms have balconies looking over the adjacent park and others have two levels that comfortably sleep a family of four. The breakfast buffet is of a high standard for the genre and there's a pleasant pool out back.
