Quartier Vieux Marché-Cathédrale
Le Havre was severely bombed during WWII so that called for quick action after the war to rebuild the destroyed areas and create homes for all those that lost theirs. A man named Auguste Perret headed up that team to rebuild the city which now has earned UNESCO World Heritage status due to its urban planning and architecture. Personally I love best the parts of the town where the old meets the new.

4.5/5(4 area reviews)

The rooms were clean , staff were friendly . What I liked the most , they would come 2 to 3 times to set up our beds and give us new towels , I haven’t experienced anything like that before. I will definitely recommend and go back there myself.
