Good central location, with parking although we walked from the station. The helpful and friendly staff give it a "family run" feel. Buffet style breakfast allows you to select what you want from the wide choice. We would happily stay there again.

We stayed here in January whilst on business and wouldn't have considered staying anywhere else in Saintes on our second visit last weekend. This delightful hotel is right in the middle of the city and has direct access onto a pedestrian shopping area with a choice of eating places. Secure parking is available but must be pre- booked. Rooms are... More

My wife and I have visited this hotel for over 30 years. Owners have changed but the present team run a first class operation. Warm,friendly and efficient. The absence of a restaurant is not an issue as there are so many good restaurants in Saintes nowadays. The rooms are well designed and decorated with superb shower room facilities. We booked... More

We stayed here in mid October and were very pleased with our room, the location and the welcome we got. An excellent experience that we would be happy to repeat! The hotel is rightb in the heart of the old town and everything is an easy walk away.

We ordered our romantic room 2 months before our arrival, but when we arrived, we were informed that the room is occupied. We started to be angry, but the nice lady in the reception quickly cooled us: she offerd us a junior suite for the price of the room. It was a very beautiful room, the heating was sufficient, the...

Lovely friendly hotel in a central location with good access to both shopping, restaurants and tourist attractions. The hotel is comfortable, homely, clean and has attractive 'individually' styled rooms. There is also wifi access. I've stayed there twice and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay very much, have lovely photographs of the sights and enjoyed... More

If you need to stay in Saintes, you would be hard pushed to find a better hotel. Whilst not luxurious, it is extremely well presented, clean, friendly staff, convenient parking (chargable and advanced booking may be required) and very well located for the centre of Saintes. We stayed on a Saturday and Sunday night and on the Saturday, we could... More

The new owners have spiffed up this hotel. The rooms are small but nicely decorated. Breakfast was delicious. We had two problems. For a part of the weekend WiFi was not available, and the person in charge spoke no English, a small problem for our 48 Americans who did communicate via sign language.

This was a perfect location for a stopover, we arranged to park at the hotel in advance and this was a good move (didn't see anywhere else close by). The road into Saintes is busy but straight out of the back door of the hotel and your in the pedestrianised centre. The room was clean, quiet but basic and with... More

We had an overnight stop at this hotel on our journey south. Saintes is a lovely place, its Roman artifacts are very well presented in a museum/park across the river and this hotel is ideally placed to explore it as well as the rest of the city. The hotel setting is charming but I think many travellers might have some... More
