Where to stay
Bouffay, the old medieval quarter around Place du Pilori, puts you within walking distance of most sights and has cheap eats on the side streets off Rue de la Juiverie. If Bouffay is full, hostels near Gare de Nantes work well too, since tram line 1 gets you across the city in under 15 minutes.
Getting around
