I stayed here for 5 nights in November, when the white buildings of the town and the golden autumn trees were swathed in mist and very pretty. outside night temperatures dropped to 4 degrees centigrade, but the etap was lovely and warm, with double windows each with double glazing keeping out the sound of the nearby railway - there is a handy space between the windows which I used as a fridge! The room was very simple, but with cheerful bright blue paint and yellow bedcover . It was spotlessly clean and towels etc changed every day. The staff were nice and very helpful, providing maps and instructions on how to get around in town. breakfast at 4.90 euros is a bargain by Tours prices, a take as much as you want buffet with cereals, baguettes butter jam fruit juices coffee tea served in a pleasant room It is 5-10 minutes walk from the station and 19th century town (open market along the boulevard), and a few more minutes will bring you to the main shopping streets Rue nationale (great clothes shops) and Rue des halles (designer stuff). The Musee de beaux arts is about 15mins away and the older town centre (place Plum) a little further. When you get back late at night (there is a code to tap in ) you will be glad there is a machine with hot coffee, and chocolate for 1 euro 20. And there is free wifi

We stayed in August for 3 nights. Good budget option, especially if you don't have a car since it's 5 minutes to the train station, though it's 20 minutes to the old town center. Quiet despite the proximity to train tracks and clean rooms with good airconditioner, a must for this time of the year! Room a sterile white color, which my 8 year old called "our hospital hotel." Friendly English speaking staff. Because of noon check out, we were not able to check in until after 1 pm for a quad room, though this was peak season for tourist travel. The lobby was closed in the afternoon on Sundays and in the evenings after 9 pm, you will need a pin number to get into the hotel provided by the front desk.

We stayed just for a night in our way to the Atlantic coast.
The room was clean, with very good sonar isolation so that we heard nothing from the nearby railway station. Most important, the free parking and that in 5 min walk we were in the center of the town.

We were on our bike trip to Loire valley and spent a couple of days here having Tours as our base. The hotel was a cheap and value for money accomodation near the station. Its being near the station actually helped since we could save time to commute. The receptiomist was also nice and helpful and helped us a lot with our queries (inspite of our limited French speaking abilities).
