Following successful openings in Cherbourg, Caen, Lorient, and Troyes, Smartappart is establishing its fifth new-generation apart-hotel in the vibrant Ville-Port district of Saint-Nazaire. This iconic destination symbolizes French industrial resurgence, home to one of the world's largest (100 hectares!), oldest, and most innovative shipyards.
To celebrate the June 28 opening at 39 Rue François Marceau—just 10 minutes from Pornichet and La Baule beaches!—Smartappart will host Sylvain Bonniol's captivating exhibition "Faces of a Shipyard." Experience an intimate photographic journey into ships under construction and the skilled workers behind them, from design office engineers to carpenters in the holds.
Don't miss it! The exhibition is open to the public from June 29 to December 31, 2018, by reservation: call 06 51 83 94 04 or visit www.smart-appart.fr. Related reading: "Faces of a Shipyard" by Sylvain Bonniol, Éditions de la Martinière, €32.
