The Hotel de Sèze is situated on the gracious , treelined promenade called the Allées de Tourny , which is also home to a traditional carousel , and just a few steps away from the magnificent Esplanade des Quinconces with its Monument aux Girondins , a 12-hectare square planted with trees planted in quincunx . The River Garonne is a short walk away and many of the historic monuments and sites of the city can be reached in about 10 to 15 minutes on foot , including the Cathedral and the Place de la Bourse . The hotel is named after Raymond de Sèze ( 1748-1828 ), the Comte de Sèze , who was born in nearby Saint-Emilion and who , as a gifted advocate , defended Louis XVI . The hotel was created in 1927 but its style has echoes of the 18th Century , enhanced by contemporary touches of elegance and flair . The 54 rooms and 3 suites are discreetly elegant and are decorated in one of eight different themes and colour combinations , but all reflect the flamboyant history of the city as well as providing a relaxing atmosphere for the contemporary traveller .
