An indoor pool and a private theatre, 400 metres from the cathedral

About this stay
Two amenities set Maison du Théâtre Saint Bonnet apart from every other Bourges city-centre stay: an indoor swimming pool, usable regardless of the Berry weather outside, and a private on-site theatre where guests can catch a concert when one is scheduled, at a supplement. The rooms carry a music-inspired decor and each has a private bathroom with a bath or shower. Restaurants cluster 100 metres away on Place Gordaine, one of the liveliest squares in the old town, and Bourges Cathedral is a 400-metre walk. Breakfast is optional, served in the veranda from 8am to 10am, and WiFi and parking both carry a supplement here rather than being included. Rooms sit above the veranda where breakfast is served, and the overall property reads as more of a small hotel with genuine character than a standard bed and breakfast of comparable size.

Our take
The clear draw for travellers who want a swim regardless of the weather and the chance of a genuine concert evening on site, both unusual for a Bourges B&B of this size. Place Gordaine's restaurants 100 metres away mean dinner is never a long walk. Budget-focused travellers should factor in the supplements for WiFi and parking before booking, since they are not bundled in.
- ✓Check the theatre's concert schedule before booking if live music is part of the appeal, shows run at a supplement
- ✓Book a table at Place Gordaine early, it is 100 metres away and fills up on weekend evenings
- ✓Confirm WiFi and parking costs at booking, both carry a supplement rather than being included
Why we love it
- Indoor swimming pool, unusual for a central Bourges B&B
- A private theatre with occasional concerts
- 400 metres from Bourges Cathedral
- Restaurants 100 metres away on Place Gordaine
Why guests love itOur team's honest highlight here is the indoor pool paired with an actual private theatre: two amenities that are genuinely rare together in a Bourges B&B, 400 metres from the cathedral and a hundred from the restaurants of Place Gordaine. The private theatre is the genuine surprise here, since concerts on site are not something most Bourges guest houses at this scale can offer their guests at all.
