We tested the Saint-Nazaire SmartAppart

Comfortable and totally independent private rooms

The good plan for groups:rent a floor, each have their own room and privacy! And being able to share the coliving space for group moments. And if you really want to stay apart, no problem, all the rooms are fully equipped with a small kitchen.

And a coliving space to share good times

The concept of SmartAppart Saint-Nazaire is co-living. We can get together for a real dinner, a last drink and why not a board game to make the evening last in the common area... The space allows you to let go in the kitchen and try small chef's dishes... and save money. And if you really want to be apart, no problem, all the rooms are equipped with television and free wifi!

When time is on the game

The weather is nice, we want to continue enjoying the last rays of the sun or the setting sun. No problem, the Smartliving Saint-Nazaire hotel residence provides customers with a fully equipped barbecue area ready to accommodate your grilled meats and vegetable skewers. A comfortable outdoor lounge allows you to share the feast!

Located 2 minutes walk from the Saint-Nazaire TGV station, this innovative formula allows you to accommodate teams of professionals, families or groups of friends and to control the accommodation budget. Weekly rate from 150 euros. Minimum stay 2 weeks.
