A hotel in a courthouse! Wow! That's certainly something new for me! We have already talked about palaces converted into hotels, and as I have already said, I have come across some of them during my travels. But they were always around 80 euros and did not reach the price of 100 euros (before the pandemic). Of course, in France everything is a bit more expensive, so the price is understandable.
I just found pictures of the rooms on Booking, and I see that they follow the idea of the design of the whole hotel - modern furniture in ancient architecture. I would say that nothing can replace an old canopy bed, but still, you are absolutely right, writing that this exquisite mixture of new and old is "stunningly beautiful"! 😊

Thanks for coming by. Yes France is usually more expensive and 100 Euros for such a quality place is a steal. I too like old furniture pieces with all their patina and character but they are harder and harder to find I though the designer in this hotel did an amazing job mixing old and new.
It's a great example of what could be done with all these dilapidated building you just shared in your newest post. People usually abandon downtowns and these old gems for new apartments with all the modern comforts in the suburbs. But this building shows that an old building and modern comfort can go together.
