Centrally situated with friendly, helpful staff. Parking is difficult - suggest you reserve parking (limited) on site and prepare to cope with the narrow, one way streets. Room was adequate for one night, fairly small but with a good bathroom. Bed was fairly comfortable, but more pillows would be a good idea.

Nice clean room...Hotel has excellent restaurant..
We arrived in mid afternoon.....Apparently, Expedia had not told them that we were to stay two nights, and they said that we might have to leave the next day.....However, after a few phone calls by the management, everything was resolved.....The little town of Chinon is very quaint and dates from the middle ages....There was no parking at the hotel, but there are a number of free parking lots in the city where we put the rental car for the night. The hotel has an excellent restaurant, which is frequented by many of the locals, and we tried it one evening....I had an excellent veal chop and my wife had a nice steak.....The portions were very generous....I would like to go back again into the Loire valley and stay at this place for a week !!!
