The place is a relaxed, yet stylish, but what made if for us was the warm welcome of the local proprietor who chatted with us despite our limited French, shared local town stories and introduced us to a local dog – Kujo, a Labrador who just wanted to hand out with us over dinner in a garden. We stayed there... More

My parents, brother and I stayed at Hotel La Marine de Loire for two nights in late August. It was our first family vacation in 15 years, and we had a fantastic time. Our suite on the top floor was decorated with care. Our only caution is that the sloping ceilings were often difficult to avoid; my brother hit his... More

The decor and atmosphere were impeccable. You could tell they have put a lot of effort and care into designing this place. Every room has a different theme to its interior design, be it the beach or outer space or what. The only downside was that it is located in Montsoreau, which is about one hours drive away from the... More

Our room overlooked the garden and was a nice size and so was the bed. Evrything you needed was to hand and the only quibble would be the hand held shower in the bath. Reception staff were very helpful and friendly both when we booked and when we checked in. A very nice overnight stop and a great dinner in... More

This was a really sweet hotel with pretty decor in a lovely town. We happened to stay on a weekend the brocante market was taking place. The hotel put on a Sunday brunch for guests and market visitors. The brunch was heavenly - terrine to dream about and an abundance of perfect French sweet treats. The rooms were really charming....

What a lovely surprise to arrive at this homely yet modern feel hotel. The service provided by Rachel and the other lady (forgot the name) is excellent and very personal without being intrusive. The lounge is perfect for a chillout and a glass of wine or hot chocolate. The rooms are modern and include touches like bathrobes and a flat... More

We spent two nights in this wonderful inn, well-located right on the river and a quick stroll away from several restaurants, wine shops, and a chateau/museum. The owner has an incredible eye for style, beautifying the rooms and grounds with simple materials like driftwood and bleached linen and a rusted bicycle perfectly placed amidst wild lavender. She serves cocktails in... More

This is the kind of hotel that you would prefer not to tell anyone about just in case it becomes so popular that you cannot get a room! We were in room No 1 which is a large room with a comfortable contemporary feel to it. The garden is small but superb with lovely sun beds. Overall, an excellent hotel... More
