I'll start by saying we weren't able to arrive until 30 mins before check-in ended, which must have had an influence.
The parking was full, I had to park in the restaurant next door and haul the suitcases over. The staff were rushing to leave. Wifi password was scribbled and we couldn't read it to access it. I walked back to the desk to inquire about it, but they'd already closed the desk and shut the lights off and left the lobby before check-in closed, so we must have been the last guests to arrive.
The hotel backs onto a park, and the window sills in our room were full of dead bugs (not just 2-3 bugs, more like 20-30). There is only one liquid soap in the bathroom - located in the shower (no sink handwashing soap), and the shower soap pump was almost totally empty, and there was no shampoo or any toiletries provided, so we had to use our own shampoo bottles to wash our hands.

We used this hotel as a stopover on the way to the South. Warning/opportunity for Expedia users - if you are booking for 4 people you probably started out specifying 2 rooms of 2 people, but the Quad room at this hotel is booked as if its one room for four, even though in reality its 2 connecting rooms. So, change your search to 4 in one room and book this. I got it wrong and booked a quad room for 2 people, and the automated systems said ah 2 people and booked one room...lucky for me the alert manager spotted it and gave us another room no extra charge...hows that for service, but I was lucky one was available.

A beautiful property set so far back from the road you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere, we had an accessible room from my partner in a wheelchair. The deck was beautiful slight wear and tear on the furniture, but that’s expected I suppose. Our welcome was wonderful and despite the language barrier and my rubbish attempt at French they was very accommodating. Although we didn’t eat on site, there are a lovely bunch of restaurants nearby and I’ll be honest the food in the hotel smelt amazing. We would definitely do a stop over here again.

Marmite Hotel - you'll either love it, or hate it.

This hotel will either drive you mad or make you laugh. We laughed. In a lovely setting away from the main road and with views (half the rooms at least) of the river. The lobby and dining areas were nice as was the patio for dining and or drinks with views into the garden and over the river.
The carpets up to the rooms are drab and stained with the room carpet in ours a light colour also showing up numerous stains.
It did have a mini bar fridge within the wardrobe unit but no mains socket to plug it in to. It also had a room safe which was locked tight. The aircon only blew out hot air and on a hot day was not what we wanted. The bed was fine, the bathroom and shower no issues. The coffee machine comes with 2 x free coffee pods, bring your own rather than pay €1 each for further ones.
The wifi was good.
We walked in to the city centre along the river, allow and hour each way. Buses and trams are also available nearby. German supermarket literally over the road.
For us this hotel was fine.

Amazing value for money compared to the local 'competition'!

The hotel is set way back from the road in tree covered grounds on the ban of the Loire and is therefore quiet and you feel like you're in the country, rather than close to a busy road.

The room was large, comfortable with a 'queen'-sized bed, and with good facilities including an excellent shower, all with a view over the River Loire.

The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Good restaurants nearby complete the picture.

We highly recommend it and will stay there again on our next drive home from the UK through France.

Great Hotel and great staff

We had a one night stay at the Parc Hotel on the way through to S.W. France as it was halfway to our destination. The Hotel was set in a lovely area with lots of shaded parking areas and garden areas for our dog to play in, there was a garden gate which took us to a walk along the river. The room was decorated in a contemporary style and met our needs completely. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, especially one lovely young lady named Rachel who couldn’t have been more helpful. We liked it so much that we booked a room for our return trip before we left the next morning. We didn’t eat there so I can’t comment on the food. We have now left the Hotel on our return trip and our experience was the same as before. If we do a similar trip in the future this would definitely be our go to stopover.

Excellent in every way for us (with a dog)

Excellent experience in every way. My partner & I were travelling from our house in Spain to Calais Eurotunnel, with our dog.
Hotel is so close to A71 junction.
Hotel set in lovely gardens and grounds so it is very quiet.
Room was quite large, with an extra bed, and very newly decorated. Excellent shower room.
Everything was ‘Boutique’ style decoration and appeared very recently decorated.
Hotel is totally dog friendly. A MASSIVE bonus for us.
Very nice breakfast room with good choice for continental breakfast.
Late night (side door) code and WiFi password shown on room key. So information immediately available.
Realised we had stayed at hotel 5 years ago but hotel has since had a complete make-over. Outside, (probably due to time of year, dark, lots of leaves etc) might appear a little dull.
But overall a FANTASTIC experience for our stop-over and we will definitely book again.

Disgusted

We arrived at the hotel which appears to have more than one name and went to reception where a trolley and bags of washing were lying about. We waited until another couple had been dealt with, then stood there for a few minutes while the manager fiddled about with the computer, eventually said “un moment”, then carried on ignoring us for another few minutes. He finally checked us in. The carpets on the landing and corridor were badly stained and there was an unpleasant smell. The toilet in the en-suite was badly stained, the lower bracket for the shower screen was dirty and the fridge had brown fluid on the bottom. I went back to reception where a younger man who seemed to be part of the family was sitting. I asked for the toilet and fridge to be cleaned. He called a cleaner and they came to the room. They said it wasn’t possible to clean the toilet, it was just marked and when I showed them the fridge, the cleaner used a towel to wipe it, then the bottle of water that had been sitting in the brown fluid. I objected to the fact that she did not use any disinfectant and just wiping it with a towel was not good enough. The young man and the cleaner insisted that was enough and left. The voile curtains at the window had dirty marks and there was a strange smell in the room. The sheets and towels were clean but I didn’t want to walk barefoot on the carpet. We had booked a room on our return through France but can’t face staying there again, even if we don’t get a refund.

Below average hotel

I chose this hotel on the basis of location first, then price and then facilities. For me it was only a short drive to my meeting but the hotel is dated.

When I arrived the hotel appeared to be shut as it was in darkness, I entered reception and there were three guys sitting in there and a woman behind the desk. There was a card with German, English and I think Dutch flags on but from what I could tell the woman just spoke French.

However we got though and I got me room key. The room was plain and no frills however it was clean and the shower worked well.

There was no bar and no restaurant, there appeared to be a restaurant next door but it was closed. For the one night I was there it was OK but I'd choice somewhere else next time. I didn't get to see the grounds but the location next to the river look great.

I'd booked on Hotels.com and paid up front but they then tried to charge me again on checkout which is either poor service or just fraud.

Nice hotel off the main rode. The room was decent sized. The toilet room was across the room from the sink and bathtub, so that was awkward to have to walk across the room to wash your hands. The shower was a semi-typical bathtub with a half glass door, so some water leaked onto the floor while showering. We did not feel like going out to get dinner once we arrived, so we ordered the microwave food that the hotel offered. It was decent enough and was brought up to our rooms for us. Breakfast was adequate with not many choices of lunchmeat or cheeses.

Great location

Hotel itself is looking a bit tired compared to its picture but was very happy with the rooms and location on the Loire just off the motorway.

Good place to stop off en route to South of France

Room was comfortable with air conditioning which is a blessing in the height of summer. Well located for the autoroute, and several restaurants within easy walking distance. Hotel had pleasant garden overlookling the river Loire. Room would have benefitted from tea and coffee making facility although this is rare in France.

Nice Hotel close to River and Cycle Trail

The hotel was very convenient to the autoroute and was set in a very nice, well tended garden bordering the River giving excellent access to the cycleways. Our adjoining rooms seemed to have been given a recent makeover. The furniture was very nice and both bedroom and bathroom were spacious. Air conditioning in the rooms was very much appreciated. Our only criticism would be the lack of Tea or Coffee making facilities in the room and were not aware of any being available through the hotel.

OK for an overnight

The hotel looks rundown and could use an updating. The sign at night is not illuminated. Stayed there for 2 nights while visiting relatives and sightseeing. We were out most of the day so as long as the room was clean and not smelly, it was acceptable. Breakfast was sparse - no hot items. For the limited selections, it was overpriced. The bathroom had soap but no shampoo/conditioner.

The view is stunning

See my previous reviews. The fact that I stay there overnight on my trips up and down France speaks for itself.

The room itself was great but there was little noise seperation between floors so when the people below got up at 4am it ruined our sleep which was very important as this was an overnight stopnon a long journey

Nice hotel

Nice hotel , which probably looks much better when it isn't raining. Rooms clean and spacious but a bit tired. A 7 minute drive from the town centre so too far to walk, but Orleans is well worth a visit. Breakfast could have offered more in the way of bacon sausage and scrambled eggs.

Fantastic service

If you're looking for a pet friendly hotel in this area, you couldn't find better. We stayed the night while travelling with 2 dogs. The staff can not do enough for you. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The grounds are lovely and there are walks along the Loire right from the hotel. The continental breakfast is the best we've ever tasted in France. Don't look anywhere else if travelling with pets in the Orleans region.

Great for stop over

Great for a stop over on the way back from the south. Quiet but close to the motorway. Nice garden and access to walk along the river to stretch those legs.

Good hotel for transit

The hotel is a typical Novatel, clean, modern and efficient. The staff were helpful and the rooms were fine, the walk into town was about 10 minutes and there is a car park at the station next door. A very nice transit stop.
