Beautiful city of Troyes
This isn't one of the best known cathedrals in France but it certainly deserves a visit. Fine gargoyles,wonderful stained glass and the place where the rules for the Knights Templar were drawn up.
The two towers you can see may be all that survives from an older building that stood here during a town fire in the 1520's. One is a stair tower and the other was a series of private chapels. The museum is well worth a visit. One part is devoted to the textile industty. It goes from 18th century looms to machines invented her in the 19th century.Queen Victoria is said to have bought underwear from Troyes.

Room comfortable, although the steps down to the bathroom were a poor design. Location excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. Was able to park out front (low season). Dining was limited to eating in the bar; would have preferred full restaurant. I would definitely stay here again.
