You might not expect to find an ultramodern hotel in a historic neighborhood, but the Hotel Gault is exactly that. Opened in 2002, it's set in a restored stone-façaded building. Inside, you'll find interiors of glass, concrete, and steel, with warm woods to keep the place from feeling overly cold or unfriendly. Soundproofed guest rooms feature flat-screen TVs, CD and DVD players, and comfortable workstations, as well as heated bathroom floors; some have private terraces. A variety of living spaces are available, so you can choose the setup that best fits your needs during your stay.
