Hermitage Gantois

The Hermitage Gantois is a five-star hotel in central Lille featuring rooms with oak paneling, Carrara marble bathrooms, and views of internal courtyards through medieval architecture windows. The overall structure preserves the character of a large historic building that has been converted into lodging while maintaining its original architectural framework.

The building served as a medical hospice from 1462 to 1995, caring for elderly and sick residents of the Lille region. This long history of care ended only when the building underwent conversion into its present-day hotel.

The building displays Gothic and Renaissance architectural elements throughout, from original beamed ceilings to stone fireplaces that reflect the medieval history of the structure. Visitors can observe these historical details in the hallways and public spaces, where old architecture blends with modern comfort.

The hotel sits about 10 minutes from Lille's train stations and features spa facilities, meeting rooms, and restaurants serving regional specialties from northern France. Visitors should know that the historic setting and internal courtyard access mean you should allow time to explore all corners of the building.

Several guest rooms occupy former chambers of the Saint Augustine Sisters, preserving authentic 15th-century structural elements within modern accommodations. These rooms give visitors a rare glimpse into the daily reality of the former monastic life that once took place at this location.
