The Originals Relais, Hôtel 2M is not your typical hotel. Here, heritage, comfort, and conviviality come together in perfect harmony.
“Behind every smile, every detail, there's thoughtfulness, a local partner, and a story,” reveals Julien, associate deputy manager of the establishment.
It's the story of Caroline and Hervé, who, after 20 years in the graphic design industry, dreamed of a new path. It's also the story of Justine and Julien, a trained sommelier and restaurateur, who couldn’t resist returning to their roots in their native Loire region.
“I never imagined, as a child, that this grand historic building in Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert would one day become our hotel,” Justine still marvels.
It took two years of renovation for the former Mellet-Mandard residence, once home to a wealthy family of 19th-century local merchants and later converted into a hospice for over a century, to begin a new chapter.
Now reborn as La Maison des 2M, it houses 24 rooms with authentic, restful charm, a bar, and a seminar room, and the "Fantastic Four" of these new hoteliers can’t wait to welcome you.

This charming town in the Forez region boasts a remarkable architectural heritage, best discovered by strolling through the narrow streets of its medieval quarter.
Timber-framed houses, a Romanesque church, and remnants of the old city walls all tell the story of a rich past.
Tucked within the walls of the former priory, now home to the Musée des Civilisations, Daniel Pouget, lies a fascinating collection of both local and international ethnographic treasures. Spanning nearly 2,000 m², hundreds of objects invite visitors to explore the diversity of cultures and societies from around the world.
And if your steps lead you further, don’t miss the Verrerie de Saint-Just, where the tradition of mouth-blown glass has been kept alive since 1826. Among its prestigious achievements: the restoration of the glass panels of the Louvre Pyramid and the windows of the Château de Versailles.
Stretching over 21 km, Lake Grangent is home to a majestic blend of cultural and natural heritage.
Surrounded by steep hillsides, forests, and heathland, its shores are ideal for hiking and exploration.
Highlights along the way include the marina at Saint-Victor-sur-Loire, one of the largest inland ports in France, the Château d’Essalois, offering a breathtaking 360° view from its rocky promontory, and the Grangent Dam, built between 1955 and 1957, which marks the boundary between the Loire gorges and the Forez plain.
Saint-Étienne is an eclectic city best explored through urban strolls.
Awarded the Ville d’Art et d’Histoire (City of Art and History) label in 2000, the city has successfully reinvented itself since the economic downturn of the 1970s.
Today, “Sainté” embraces its industrial heritage as a strength, showcased in places like the Mine Museum and the Museum of Art and Industry. Even more, the city has found a new passion: design. Entire neighborhoods have been reimagined, culminating in the creation of the Cité du Design.
Fun fact: Saint-Étienne is also one of the greenest cities in France (and no, we’re not talking about the football jersey), with over 700 hectares of parks and public gardens.
