Beautiful building in a great location but run down and in need of a lot of TLC

Comfortable bed

No staff in evidence at all upon arrival. Cold Spartan room. Enormous but very little in it.

7.0 / 10.0

Charming historical building right on the Liore right on the road into the town.

Location and staff were lovely. Very easy to get to. Charming historical building and garden right on the Liore. Brand new spacious bathroom. Room was spacious with 14 foot high ceilings with a peekaboo view of the river and a view of the garden from the bathroom. Restaurant on site was good but short staffed.

Accessibility is limited due to no elevator. Bed was a double not a queen even though the room was very spacious so a bit tight for two people. Room was cold. At least extra blankets were provided. Walls were bare (no wall art in the room) so it felt cavernous not cozy.

Disappointing after a good start.

Lovely location. Nice welcome on arrival

On arrival the man on reception was really helpful and friendly and you accommodated all of our requests. We said we wouldn't have breakfast as needed to leave early. I came down to the breakfast room about 7am as I was looking for milk for tea before we left. There is no milk provided in the room. I asked the lady setting up breakfast and she repeatedly told me that milk was just for guests having breakfast. So it is basically impossible to have a cup of tea at the hotel. Not great service at all and also all done in a very difficult manner. Also someone left a usable vape on my 13 year old son's bed on arrival. Not under the sheets but on top of the duvet. Luckily he gave it to us. I left it at reception when I left. Assume must be a cleaner and hopefully not previous guest. Not a great check of the room for cleanliness. What seemed like a quirky and historic hotel started to become dated, dirty and sloppily run I did send a message to the hotel afterwards with the points made above but still no response after a fortnight so time to write a review unfortunately.

Nice old place with historic details, bang on Loire

Nice location (bang on Loire) in old castle/big farmhouse. Loads of charm and atmosphere. Room pretty big, everything you need, with view on river.

Maybe the styling of the room, the furniture was a bit simple. But all worked!

8.0 / 10.0

Very nice location with the open view on the calm Loire.

Nice continental breakfest with all you need. No reasons to compain. Good caffee. Nice and friendly staff.

Could have been cleaner. There had been some spiders' webs in the room and in the corridors. Fitting perfectly overeall mood of the hotel ;-)

Some maintenance needed - looking rather tired since our last stay.

Never going back

Location we were revisiting after 3 years - we did not know it was no longer a Logis and was under new ownership . It had gone downhill

No staff to speak to after a certain time , my parents bedroom had a fly and ant infestation - no one was around to deal with it - their room was filthy - room 301 - the restaurant served heated up food which was awful - so many issues - the garden was full of dead plants in pots - there was just no care -

A fabulous place on the river, tres romantique.

A beautiful old building adapted for modern living.

5.0 / 10.0

Most lovely position for a hotel but it needs some care and attention.

The room was enormous, bed comfortable but no extras such as chairs to relax or anything to make it more comfortable. We decided that €15 p.p, for breakfast was not worth it, no croissants just a bit of bread and some coffee

It was very dirty in the courtyard a full ashtray not emptied by anyone. There was no bar in order to have a relaxing drink before dinner. The food in the restaurant was disappointing, obviously sous vide not fresh and the breakfast was not worth €15

We like staying here on our journey back to the U.K. It is near the A10 so very convenient with a lovely view from the b

A superb position looking over the Loire. Large rooms comfortable beds lovely restaurant.

The reception was not open on arrival. There was an efficient code system but it was a shame not to have a welcoming face on arrival.

Really enjoyable - good location close to Orleans, very relaxing and quiet surroundings

Room was nice and spacious with a desk and sofa and two beds. Excellent view of the river which was an unexpected bonus.

Check in screen did not work to start with but the staff were very helpful and fixed this remotely - overall excellent service

A missed opportunity

The location of this hotel is excellent. Views of the river & easy walks to all the bar’s & restaurants. The room was clean & the bed was very comfy

Common areas are in bad repair. The shower was a drizzle & the only member of staff we came across, the woman who took our key from us in the morning, was probably the rudest, unfriendliest person I’ve ever come across. She snatched the key & could barely say goodbye. This isn’t a joke. This was exactly what happened.

A beautiful old building in a lovely setting. Well worth a visit.

We had a beautiful big room on the ground floor and although we appeared to be the only guests we were given excellent service. The dinner was good as was the breakfast, served on the terrace overlooking the Loire.

No complaints.

Our expectations were met, comfortable room, good breakfast facilities and very pleasant surrounding

Location beside the river, friendly staff, easy access to town facilities

on arrival the garden was very unkempt but during our stay it was tidied up and this made the building and its surroundings much more arttractive

Pleasant stay in beautiful old house

Beautiful setting by river in historic building with lovely gardens. Staff were very helpful & breakfast was excellent.

Facilities were nothing special - no air conditioning or fan with outside temperatures around 35c. En suite had a bath, but shower did not work.

8.0 / 10.0

The hotel is in a very good position but could do with a bit of TLC especially at the rear garden.

The room had a wonderful view over the river, and was spacious, unfortunately the window is small . The shower room was large with a walk-in shower, and good size washbasin. Again unfortunately we were there during a top 30's heatwave so the room was very hot, but the hotel supplied a fan, which was much appreciated. The hotel included in there popular facilities a restaurant, which didn't actually belong to the hotel, even though it is on the premises. It was my birthday and I was looking forward to a nice meal. The menu was minimal which is okay if there has been thought and effort put into the courses, but it was pretty plain. Plus it was not cheap, I get a lot better at home. We had not booked breakfast, expecting a good feed the night before. I would stay again, as the hotel is in a very pleasant area,

3.0 / 10.0

Poor

It is a beautiful location and a nice old building.

The building needs some love and care, it is falling apart. On top of that the flies from the river are a nuisance so the dilemma is to open the window to get some cool air with flies or to keep the windows closed and endure the damp heat.

A great spot for a short stay

A really special place along the river. The terrace is remarkable and the restaurant serves great food.

Disappointing

The room was well situated with a view over the river but the facilities were very basic and disappointing following our previous visit some 10 years ago. The standard provided would not encourage a future visit.

Inspiring typically French place. Above our normal budget but worth it for the sense of grandeur.

We loved our warm welcome from the host after a long journey - it made so much difference. The rooms were magnificent with hugely high ceilings and nice bathrooms and wonderful views. We got rooms next to each other which was great with two children (recommend Rm 401-402!). The restaurant next door was very good (not cheap) & had it have been sunny it would have been amazing to sit in the beautiful green courtyard garden.

Great location and friendly service. We stayed as part of a motorcycle touring holiday and was very pleased to be able to park our bikes in the courtyard for extra security.

Authentic stay in a lovely chateau

Beautiful property, lovely staff, great restaurant.

The staff would leave the windows open to air the room, meaning there were a lot of flies and mosquitoes in the room in the evening. It’s an old building, so you hear people in the hall way, but all guests were very quiet. Except one couple with a dog who barked a lot, I thought this hotel did not allow dogs.

8.0 / 10.0

Great place to stop over in mid France.

Great location, Good restaurant for the evening meal with excellent food, Rooms spacious, reasonably appointed and beds very comfortable.

Breakfast was very poor and certainly not good value. Arriving just before 9am, we had to ask for milk and even croissants. These were brought out in very sparing supply so any other guest would have to ask again. Disappointing to say the least and certainly not worth the money.

7.0 / 10.0

Good

Close to the highway and much more preferable than the chain-hotels along the highway when you need a place to stay overnight. It is a lovely building with outdated rooms on a great location along the river. The restaurant in the same nice building is great. Easy walk into a lovely town.

Rooms are outdated, it is difficult and expensive to keep an old-building to todays standard and that is noticeable.

Beautiful place and area even for a short overnight stay

Great location for walking and scenery, dog friendly, high quality breakfast and dinner. Ground floor room was very convenient when travelling with dog.

Nothing really.

A wonderful old Relais, full of charm and character, and excellent hosts.

Excellent host, very friendly and helpful. Nice, large room overlooking the river. Wonderful location. Lovely ambiance inside and outside. Excellent food, both dinner and breakfast.

The wi-fi was almost non-existant, certainly not strong enough for anything other than receiving emails without attachments. Dinner, although the food was tasty, was expensive for what it was.

Great stay! Planning to come back next year

Best place at the riverside, big rooms, great view, cozy and romantic place. Restaurant good aswell with reasonable prices.

Not a lot tbh
