In a restaurant-rich part of town, this quirky, France-themed hotel offers offers comfortable lodgings at great prices. Rooms have modern décor, with cool headboards made to look like stripy French t-shirts or clusters of berets, and glass-topped desks filled with fake turf and miniature French cars or bikes.  Wallpaper in the corridors is a bold recreation of the French flag (blue, white and red stripes), a design mirrored on the façades overlooking the lobby atrium (which doubles as the breakfast room). Freebies include breakfast for under 12s, non-alchoholic minibar drinks and afternoon soft drinks. There’s also a fitness room and a sauna.
