“Very nice hotel, price but good”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

In general, despite the good quality of the hotel, I'm not sure it can live up to the price tag. We had a family room with two extra beds, one for a baby and one for a 6 year old. These beds we're basically coaches they opened up. The quality of the bed was unfortunately of the same quality.
For the rest this is a nice hotel with swimming pool and a nice breakfast. Service is good, also the room service was of a very high quality as well as the service. Nice parking lot and and free wifi in the rooms.
If you have kids, this is a hotel I would recommend, but take two rooms and don't let yourselves be seduced to the family room which does not live up to the expectations of "a good night rest"

“Does what it says”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011

Stayed as a family of two adults and 2 children (11 & 9) on the drive down to Spain. Initially booked a room for the outbound journey and enjoyed the hotel enough to book again on the way back. Good value at £120 per night with £14 per adult extra for breakfast. Kids breakfast free with a good choice of food. Our room on the outbound was a bit more dated than the room we got on the return journey however it was well appointed, clean and not worn. Easily accessible from the motorway so no battling traffic after spending 7 hours in the car. Kids each got a fluffy toy on arrival so they were keen to return on the trip back. Nice touch as well as the bottle of water on departure. (good marketing). Hotel staff were very friendly and helped looked for accommodation for me on the return journey. Pool looked inviting but did not have a chance to try it out. Small play park in a large grass area that allowed the boys to stretch their legs while I sat outside with my drink. Did not have dinner there as we ventured into Orleans. Menu looked ok but nothing to get excited about. Food prices average.

“Very comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011

Pleasant English speaking (enough to get by!) staff in reception and in the small bar.
Rooms spacious, clean and comfortable. Not handy for the town but handily located for touring. Nearby Italian restaurant (across the carpark) worth a visit for evening meals as the hotel food was not cheap. A very good, varied buffet breakfast.

“Superb for stop over!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2011

We (Family of 4) used this Novotel for a one-night stop over on the way back to the UK.
As expected from Novotel, the rooms accomodate 4 and are very functional.

This hotel has a particular good setting with small children. There is lots of green space around the hotel, including some paly equipment and a pool.
In addition, there is ample parking space around the hotel.

Finally, the Novotel breakfast (where kids eat free) can't be beaten for value. Choices were abundant, and everything was re-filled immediately.

We booked in advance for 59€, whcih can be considered a steal!
