The only pool in town, steps from the theatre

About this stay
Named for the theatre it sits beside, Les Coulisses du Theatre, backstage of the theatre, leans into a boutique identity within the Originals network of independent French hotels. Its central position, two minutes from the Place de l'Hotel de Ville, keeps the Basilique and the pedestrianized streets within an easy walk, while the pool sets it apart from every other property in Saint-Quentin's current lineup, pet-friendly or otherwise. Rooms come with breakfast and paid parking available, and both kid-friendly and accessible rooms widen who the property works for. It's the closest thing Saint-Quentin has to a resort amenity within its own Art Deco center, paired with a name and setting that tie it directly to the town's cultural life rather than to a generic chain identity.

Our take
Hôtel Les Coulisses du Théâtre is the three-star I would book in central Saint-Quentin: named after the town's theatre, it is two minutes from the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville and has a swimming pool, which is unusual this close to the centre. Pets are welcome, rooms suit children and accessible rooms are available, and breakfast is served on site. A 9.2 score from 422 reviews is outstanding.
- ✓Book a pool-facing room if that view matters to you; confirm room type directly given the boutique scale of the property.
- ✓Combine a swim with an evening at the neighboring theatre if a show happens to be on during your stay.
- ✓Walk to the Basilique in the morning before the pool area gets busy with other guests.
Why we love it
- The only pool in Saint-Quentin
- Named for the town's theatre
- Two minutes from the center
- Pet- and kid-friendly rooms together
Why guests love itFamilies staying here get a rare combination in Saint-Quentin: a pool close enough to the Basilique to still walk to the market or the museum in the same afternoon. The kid-friendly rooms mean the property is set up for children rather than merely tolerating them, and the short walk into the center keeps sightseeing simple. Dog owners traveling with the family also get pet-friendly rooms, useful when a stay needs to work for everyone, four-legged or otherwise.
