貝斯特韋斯特藝術酒店

In the city centre near the restaurants and the seafront, the Best Western ARThotel, Le Havre, France, occupies a building designed by the architect Auguste Perret, a short walk from the City Hall, the shops, the long beach, and the MuMa art museum that holds works by Monet and Boudin. All the rooms were renewed in 2020 in a fresh, contemporary style with flat-screen televisions and high-speed Wi-Fi, and the hotel keeps a warm jazz and tapas wine bar and a breakfast room, with upper-floor rooms opening onto terraces that look over the harbour and Oscar Niemeyer's Le Volcan arts centre. The hotel stands within the centre of Le Havre, rebuilt by Auguste Perret after the Second World War, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the most complete example of post-war reconstruction in reinforced concrete, anchored by the soaring stained-glass tower of the church of Saint-Joseph that lights up like a lantern from within.
