The hotel is right in the middle of the town, overlooking the River Loire. The hotel itself can best be described as basic. The room we had was tiny. The staff were friendly enough. More

I am from a small village in the region and needed a hotel to stay for a week. I have stayed at this Hotel 12 years ago and did not have the best time but it was practical at the time. I can only say that not only the rooms are a lot better and the hotel has had a... More

The only room available was the twin with Loire view: reached by narrow, steep staircase and containing some rather cranky furniture but that view is beautiful, from the two large picture windows you can see180 degrees of river and the Pont Cessart close by to the west. The bistro serves a tasty menu, with innovative touches (eg vanilla-scented risotto accompanied... More

We went to the bistro attached to the hotel for dinner as our first choice L'Alchemist had been fully booked for the evening. On arrival we were asked to sit at a table of our choice. 10 minutes later (just as we were about to give up) a sullen watress literally threw some tableware at us together with some menus... More

Basic room with two balcony windows.Rooms smelt a bit stale. Side view of River. OK for quick overnight stop on way south. Staff OK. Did`nt eat here so can`t comment on food. Handy for town and restaurants. Just OK..... More

We stayed for two nights wishing to see the Chateau and the nearby Abbey Royale Fontevraud. Our room was basic but clean. No bed-bugs anywhere. We were up three flights, with a second room in the roof above and a view through the skylight of the Chateau. Not really suitable if you cannot do stairs. The food in the evening... More
