We stayed one night in the Croix Blanche, in the old part of the hotel, felt like staying in the Abbey of Fontevraud itself. Very welcoming owner and staff. Delightful environment, just opposite the Abbaye, which is also fascinating (the burial place of Richard Coeur de Lion and Henry II amongst others) and beautifully peaceful. Unfortunately we were too late... More

Myself and my wife stayed here for 4 nights in September. My wife is disabled and the staff went out of their way to help her. The rooms were comfortable, but the main purpose for writing this review was the service. As our French is limited, the staff were always glad to converse in English, something unusual in France! Nothing... More

We had visited this hotel on several occasions, always enjoying the area and the village but the last visit exceeded anything before. We were planning to have a big family party in the area and the staff and owners of the Croix Blanche were superb in their helpfulness. The rooms are very good and the standard of food in the...

We stayed for 2 nights with friends and loved the place. The rooms were comfortable and charming. The staff was pleasant. We had dinner in the restaurant and the chef came and greeted us. Our only regret is to have gone to "La Licorne". We should have stayed in the hotel. We will be back.

We didn't stay here but had the Menu de Dégustation. It was well presented, imaginative and beautifully cooked. The wines (which were part of the 33 E tariff) complimented the meal very well. The dining room was pleassntly decorated and the staff were efficient and attentive.

Thank you for the positive review of our restaurant Le Plantagenêt. Since a couple of months the new Tripadvisor page for our restaurant has had many reviews and visitors too. Feel free to post a review there too. Best regards from all at La Croix Blanche. More

We stayed overnight in mid winter and were impressed with the ambience and restaurant. Later in the summer we went back for 4 nights with an old car group and took over the whole hotel. The owners were in evidence and the staff were well trained. As well as the gastronomic restaurant there is a bar which opens on to... More

Having spent 3 nights here we were just sorry we weren't there for longer! The staff were highly efficient and friendly, nothing was too much trouble for anyone. We received a warm welcome which continued throughout our stay. Our room was very comfortable. The restaurant served delicious and imaginative food with an excellent choice of local wines. The continental breakfast... More

We spent 2 nights at this hotel. The staff were very efficient and helpful and spoke English well (not that we expect it). The rooms were comfortable. Both the gourmet restaurant and the bistrot had very good food and a selection of local wines. A wider selection of white wine by the glass (to match the number of reds on... More

We were part of a larger party that spent four nights at the hotel. It is well situated in the historic village of Fontevraud, is full of character and charm and the staff (led by Mme Chabenat) are friendly and helpful. Our room was very pleasant (though a little noisy as a result of bells tolling at the Abbey) and... More

We stayed in the hotel for four nights on an organised tour from our local Old Motor Club. Our cars were pre 1950 so we were delighted with the car park at the back of the hotel which was locked at night. We had booked all the rooms in the hotel and everyone seemed happy with their bedrooms and liked... More
