Friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast and comfortable bed. However, the room needs renovation: wallpaper torn in places, noisy air conditioning.

Very agreeable stay in the Hotel de France
The staff was very friendly and professional, good breakfast options (eggs and salmon were perfect), quiet hotel and everything you might need in the room for a trip. Ideally located next to the station and the city centre.

Disappointing
The gentleman on check-in was delightful - we had had trouble with our car and were a bit stressed! The window in our room had been left open (with radiator switched off) because the previous guest had smoked!! He very quickly sorted the gremlins. However, our meal in the Bistrot was disappointing - did not have a bottle of our wine selection, forgot my knife & fork (used on the starter) for my main meal, which was inedible as overcooked and tasteless! (fish & chips - you normally cannot ruin). The waitress said she couldn't take it off the bill (even though I couldn't eat it) but would give me cheese "gratis" - sadly I accepted her offer but felt, on reflection, I should have insisted. This affected our decision not to stay here again as I think the quality, or not, reflects on the hotel and we expected better. I shall continue to use Logis Hotels in the future and not deviate as it is not worth it.

Excellent location, right across the street from the train station. Great variety of bars, bistros, cafes, and shops nearby. Plenty of sights to see within walking distance. Rooms are larger than a typical old French hotel. English ability of front desk staff is more than adequate. Rental cars across the street st station.

Rated as a4star hotel, this was anything but that.
The information on the Expedia site would indicate this was a 4 Star hotel, all was misleading. Although the hotel may have had the required facilities to reach the points to gain a high rating in reality it was no better than a 2 Star Hotel. the room was small and badly equipped and laid out. The bedroom was a mismatch of items with very old (looking) furniture and new department chain store like cupboard and writing desk with another wardrobe located in the rooms hallway The bathroom was very small with minimal toiletries and only soap dispensers, one of which was empty, and one bottle of shampoo. The parking was on the street if you can find it or 0.25Km away in a rail station complex. the restaurant was bistro and the breakfast consisted of a cold buffet with one warm dish.

We had a great night here. Just a one night stop over but the room and service were great, the bistro downstairs perfect for a quick dinner and the breakfast set us up for the day ahead.

This hotel is quite plain, in the best sense of the word. We stayed at a half dozen hotels during a recent trip to France and this was by far the most satisfactory. Cost very modest, the location good, the room very simple without any decoration to speak of, but large, with a nice view, plus refrigerator. Staff very nice. I gave this hotel an "excellent" rating because, in contrast to every other hotel in which we stayed, it had nothing wrong with it while offering numerous thoughtful small amenities.

A bit up and down!
Knew nothing about Angers when we arrived. We were disappointed with the hotel. We booked a 'Privilege' room but found it was a little garrett room in the attic. The girl on the desk said that was a 'Privilege' room! Angers is actually quite pretty in places. There is an enormous fort/castle and a pretty riverside. Lots of restaurants but not many are really good. We stumbled across the best one, we thought.

A nice hotel right by the train station. Nice cafe with outside seating available and friendly staff. Lovely fountain on the roundabout. A little warm even with the airconditioning, but not too bad. Nice view off the front side, but street noise if the windows are open. Could use new matresses.

Nice Hotel convenient to the train station.
Small problem with room key so we had to handle it the old fashioned way by a real key(not electronic). But the staff was very helpful and concerned. Beautiful, clean room on top floor with great views of Angers.

An aristocratic hotel in Angers, close to the city
This is my second visit to Angers, and I decided to chose this hotel, which is very close to railway station and to the city. However, I found that the hotel is too old, but had an antique or aristocratic feel. The overall stay was comfortable and worth the tariff of 100 Euro plus taxes with breakfast included.

Wonderful,helpful, staff.
We were unexpectedly delayed due to the train strike. This hotel was convenient to the station, but we were pleasantly surprised. Wonderful, helpful hotel staff. Clean, equipped room that shows a bit of age. Only issue was the noise of the jackhammers across the street that morning due to repairs at the train station. We would stay there again.

A pleasurable stay at the Hotel De France, Angers.
We were pleased overall with this hotel. We found staff to be most helpful and courteous. An initial problem with the safe was sorted out to our satisfaction fairly quickly.. The room was kept clean and tidy during our stay. The staff responsible did a good job. To our surprise and delight tea and coffee making facilities appeared on the second full day of our stay. We had assumed that these were not part of the service, but as it was a brand new machine then obviously this must have been a replacement .The room was quiet even though it was at the front. The double glazing worked well , as also did the remote control air conditioning. Yes, this hotel was okay. Thank You.

Good base for Angers sightseeing
An ideal location for tourists arriving by train, the hotel is right opposite the station, and only a few minutes walk from shops, restaurants and the chateau of Angers. Staff were friendly and helpful; rooms were well cleaned. My room had somewhat excessive central heating with large hot pipes running the height of the room. However the bed was comfortable and bathroom pleasant.We had one meal in the bistro which was fine. A mezzanine lounge in the hotel provided tea and coffee on tap and comfortable seats.

Hotel de France
The best of the hotel was the help that the staff gave to me and my wife. The location is very good because is in front of the train station and close to the castle. The confort and cleanliness is not that good. The bed was terrible and room is old. The breakfast is OK. Since we stayed only one night was not so bad but for a long stay I will look some other place. The Brasserie in front of the hotel is first class food even though the service is not so good.
