The Hotel is located in the quaint town of Albert, surrounded by rich historical sites including main Somme Battlefields and Memorials of the First World War (Thiepval, Beaumont-Hamel, Pozieres, Villers-Bretonneux, Longueval, Rancourt, Arras, La Boisselle...) as well as the most beautiful cathedrals (Amiens, Beauvais, Reims and the Champagne area). You can visit in Albert the Somme 1916 Museum, which retraces life in the trenches during the war, the Basilique Notre-Dame-De-Brebières famous for its statue of the golden Virgin; and the Great War Museum in Peronne which is the central reference museum for the WWI. Don't forget "les Hortillonnages" in Amiens, a mosaic of 300 hectares of market and ornemental floating gardens accessed only by traditional horn-shaped boats; and appreciate the magicof pond's landscape along the Somme River.
