AIR CONDITIONNING SET TO 24DegC. Too hot!
Because of flying bugs, we couldnt open the window, so we had to sweat.

At night, the walk from the car park to the hotel is in the total obscurity. No solar powered light installed for the guest's security.

These 2 issues are easy to fix.

Very worn out and outdated, from the carpets to door handles everything looks ancient; needs a major refurbishment urgently.

Also very noisy, the rooms with river view are above the patio restaurant, so in the morning during breakfast, you hear loud cutlery sounds for 2-3 hours, are you not supposed to have a layin during holidays?

Nice stay and great views

The hotel is well-located in the center of the city, on the water. Unfortunately we had a room with a window on the street, but the Loire and the old Saumur made a great scenery for breakfast.
The historic part of the city and all its restaurants are across the bridge, at most a 10 minute walk.
The room was nice, the bed comfortable. The only negative point was the presence of a few hairs behind the bathroom door when we came in. The receptionist was quick, agreable and helpful, giving us tips on where to find a vegetarian option in the city.

Well-placed hotel with parking facilities, ten minutes walk from the restaurants of the old town across the bridge.

Efficient reception, room modern, clean, well-equipped and quiet despite being near lift from ground floor. Helpful staff gave good information about local eateries (including one to avoid!).

Buffet breakfast more than adequate, including a cooked option and an \"express\" croissant/coffee combo at the bar if you're in a hurry. A useful base for exploring the local vineyards.

Must stay here

We stayed here overnight travelling through France and what a great decision. We paid slightly more for a premium room with a Loire view and I would recommend you do that. Although Saumur is a beautiful town, the real joy is falling asleep and waking up to the view of the river and chateau. The room was superb in all aspects. The air con was really useful. Not only for keeping the room cool but also for mossie control. On that point, they are prevalent, but if you take sensible precautions as advised by the hotel you should have no issues. Reception was quick and polite and you are within 10 minutes walk of numerous cafés and restaurants. Private secure parking is available and free. We didn't eat so cannot comment, but would strongly recommend this hotel.

When I booked this hotel I checked whether the room had wheelchair facilities or not for my son. The response was favourable. The reality was very unfavourable.

The entrance to the room was very uncomfortable. The room was small and he was not able to comfortably manouver about. I also had to move the bed to give my son adequate space to get into bed. The bathroom was also another problem - it was extremely difficult to enter and very, very small. In fact, this was the most expensive of the five hotels we stayed in and had the worst facilities for him.

While both check-in and check-out receptionists were friendly and efficient their responses were that there will be accessible rooms in the future. Unfortunately, the future is not the present and I feel that I was provided with false information. If they do actually renovate the rooms - might I suggest that they install two beds instead of one double. Not every wheelchair person is a couple.

While the location is beautiful, I would be very slow to return to this hotel.

My only complaint was the plastic backed mattress protector on the bed which made it incredibly hot - we had to remove it to get some sleep and the quilt on the bed was a bit too heavy for the time of year.

Stunning views of chateau and river

One night stay on our journey from s of France back to St Malo. This was the fourth hotel we visited in six days. The hotel is brilliantly located and we had a room with great views. The room was fine, well equipped and clean but the whole hotel could do with a bit of redecorating just to freshen up. The underground car park is a bit tricky in terms of the ease of getting into the spaces. We had a small sports car but would have had difficulty parking something larger. The surface is large loose stones which makes turning difficult.

We selected the hotel due to the location on the river.

When we complained the manager refused to believe us so we had to get her to come to the room. They recleaned the room and gave us a botle of fizz as compensation.

Great for business or tourism

This hotel had a great location, was very comfortable and also had helpful staff. One of the benefits that I hadn't realised before we were there is that it is really close to the location where the act of surrender for the 2nd World War was signed. There is a small museum, the 'Salle de Reddition' in the building were Eisenhower's headquarters were based, a couple of hundred metres away, well worth visiting.
The only problem with this hotel is that you have to get to the other side of the rail way line to get into the town centre, so all restaurants etc are about a 10-15 minute walk away.

The hotel was ok but there are areas that could be improved,I am surprised that the resturant is closed in the evenings especially as the view outside is fantastic.
The hotel is not exactly generous on toileteries, we stayed for 3 nights,after the first night we just had a small sachet of shampoo and shower gel, for what we paid we should of had better.
The breakfast was good with a good selection to chose from,14 euros though, but if you are hungry its well worth it.
As several guests have mentioned if you want the view of the river and Chateau,it is worth paying the extra.
