Hubert Sergeant

Nestled in the heart of the Hortillonnages d'Amiens, at the edge of the historic center and its cathedral, the guest houses "Comme une parenthèse" welcome you in a harmonious setting of greenery and water. These charming and design guest rooms will plunge you into a unique and original setting. Between terroir and travel, between tradition and discovery, the guest houses "Comme une parenthèse" will surprise you. Comme une parenthèse offers you the choice between three guest houses with different universes: The small guest house: an intimate and intimate place, ideal for couples who wish to spend a romantic stay. The big house, comfortable and spacious, it has been thought for families or friends. The workshop, with its feet on the water, its charm and its architecture will not leave the most dreamy ones insensitive.

Hubert Sergeant is a passionate set designer and watercolourist who graduated from the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. His artistic career, marked by sensitivity and high standards, is now expressed as much in his pictorial creations as in the spaces he has carefully crafted. Each space he designs reflects his artistic vision: a harmony between nature, light and matter. In his gardens, as in his watercolours, the composition, nuances and detail reveal a keen sense of staging. Over the years, he has invested time and energy in creating a veritable botanical treasure trove: a lush garden where roses, hydrangeas, boxwoods, palm trees, irises, daffodils and a multitude of other species coexist. These places, both poetic and vibrant, reflect his taste for beauty, his attachment to nature and his desire to share a soothing and inspiring atmosphere.

Nestled in the heart of Amiens' famous Hortillonnages, the guest houses enjoy a unique setting surrounded by water, greenery and heritage. This iconic neighbourhood, criss-crossed by small canals and floating gardens, offers a peaceful and poetic atmosphere, just a stone's throw from the city centre. Here you will discover a rare balance between nature and urban life: boats glide along the flower-lined canals, while the lively streets of the old Saint-Leu district invite you to stroll among galleries, cafés and colourful façades. It is a place where time seems to stand still, conducive to relaxation, contemplation and walks. Here, the water reflects the light of the seasons and the city can be glimpsed through the foliage – an ideal setting for a peaceful, inspiring and authentic stay.
