About the host
Hosted by Host
The owners of Icone Collection are passionate about real estate and history. They do everything in their power to make their guests feel at home in the accomodations they provide and each of the properties in their portfolio has a specific history.

Likewise, established here for centuries, the old university has extended and occupied then the area between the streets Pasteur, aux Namps, Saint-Sauveur and the bedside of the old Saint-Sauveur. It had been partly destroyed by the bombardments of 1944 and the whole district has been razed to be rebuilt except for the church of Old Saint Sauveur, the pastor college and ... 1 rue Elie de Beaumont!
