Wonderful host - lovely welcome present including thoughtful croissants for our breakfast. Fully equipped kitchen - everything you need. Beautiful garden and outside seating. Good off street parking.

Chinon is easily walkable from the river up to the castle/fortress ruins on small streets that are still used in the daily lives of its’ residents. Although old, it is lively and offers many restaurants and shops for any needs you may have. Rather a charming, old city.

The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history.
The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history. The old town was very picturesque with some excellent restaurants. A lot of climbing although there is a lift from the lower town to the fortress. A good range of shops, cafes and bars.

Chinon has the feel of a village.
Chinon has the feel of a village. It is not that small, but there is a sense of security and ample access to food, wine, and services all reached on foot. There is no need to use a car in town. The weekly market is vey large and we easily reached it on foot even though is was near the opposite end of the town from our apartment. The climb (many steps) to the fortress is well worth the effort but there is also a free elevator provided by the town. If you want to comprehend how nice it is, visit busy Saumur which is full of traffic, stop lights, priorité a droit, steep roads, and noise.

Chinon is a charming town. Good size, not too small and full of exceptional restaurants. Close to many wineries and Chateaus.b we ate at Les Annes 30 and Table de La Jeanne. Both of them were really good.

Architecture (limestone) unchanged for centuries, elsewhere...
Architecture (limestone) unchanged for centuries, elsewhere troglodyte constructions. Historic castle. Numerous restaurants (especially Hotel de la Paix). Easy access to other Chateaux de la Loire, great atmosphere.
The location and residence were wonderful! This was our favorite place we stayed. The decorations were beautiful and elegant. Our bedroom and bathroom were spacious and very comfortable. we also had the best breakfast. Breakfast had an incredible selection of breads, jams, juices and cereal and yogurts. There was a baked pear dish that melted in your mouth. It was delicious. I highly recommend to stay here if you are in the area and want to feel pampered. You will love it. Our host was very helpful and kind.
This is one of the most pleasant places we have stayed in during over 60 years of travel. The location overlooking the river Vienne is beautiful with nothing but the river and forest to look out on. The house is a grand 19th century mansion. Jeanne is a delightful host serving delicious breakfasts and could not be more friendly and helpful. She has fairly limited English but will chat for hours in French. Chinon is about 6km away so it is in easy reach and has a fair selection of restaurants.
The location is particularly good for exploring Chinon on foot and as a bonus is directly opposite the river. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, and our room was in a small private courtyard a few metres from the main building, which we particularly liked. Breakfast was good, bread and croissants, etc, in the main building with various additional options available and as much tea and coffee as you want. We would be happy to recommend this hotel to anyone we knew.
Beautiful property and located right in the historic centre of Chinon. Host was exceptionally nice and welcoming - and very accommodating of our slightly mad little dog. Room was huge and beautifully decorated. The bathroom was massive.
The croissants were also the best we had during our trip!
Our recent stay at the hotel was excellent, the Room we were allocated was excellent, the lady manager was very helpful, the location was perfect for our needs with parking right outside of the hotel, and an easy evening stroll into the centre of Chinon. Just a great place!
It was a perfect match for visiting the Loire Valley coming from Paris, A perfect house, with very friendly people to receive us, it was more than perfect. I Strongly recommend to come to Chinon, very beautifull and peacifull city and stay in this house.
Clean and spacious rooms with comfortable beds. Nice bathroom. Peaceful and quiet rooms and location. Easy parking. Several famous chateaus within a 30 minute drive. The charming town of Chinon a 10 minute drive away with plenty of restaurant options.
The 2 bedroomed house, on 2 floors, was ideal for our 4 day stay near Chinon. It is very well equipped and spacious. Parking right outside the front door is convenient and secure. The recently refitted shower room is particularly good.
excellent location near center of Chinon.
Flor was very responsive and made you feel comfortable. He offered insights as to what to do, chateau to visit and biking options. Breakfasts were great and had locally grown ingredients....
Extremely nice host welcomed us to a very beautiful property. Very complete equipment, comfortable bedding, well equipped kitchen, nice pool, onsite parking...The house is located in a quiet village just outside Chinon.
Great Location
Small, friendly hotel situated only a short walk over the bridge from the centre of Chinon. Rooms clean and comfortable. Breakfast room and breakfast buffet lovely.
Everything. The views of the river and the chateau are amazing. The rooms are spacious. The terrace is lovely. The hosts were so helpful and friendly. The location is perfect.
The apartment is in a fantastic location, it was charming, clean and thoughtfully decorated. We loved it and we would definitely stay there again if we were in Chinon!
The location was very near the chateau and it was easy to get into the centre of town. The gite is in the owner’s garden but there is plenty of privacy.
