Very helpful staff. Hotel is like a Tardis. Lots of rooms but it is like stepping back in time. Website shows modernised rooms but we were staying in an older room. Staff Ensured we didnt get our car towed away due to the market the next day. Centrally located, once parked up you can walk everywhere. We were so tired after a long drive that I slept well. We didnt stay for breakfast. Market is huge and outside the hotel. We bought croissants and coffee from there and then continued our travels across France.

The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history.
The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history. The old town was very picturesque with some excellent restaurants. A lot of climbing although there is a lift from the lower town to the fortress. A good range of shops, cafes and bars.

Chinon has the feel of a village.
Chinon has the feel of a village. It is not that small, but there is a sense of security and ample access to food, wine, and services all reached on foot. There is no need to use a car in town. The weekly market is vey large and we easily reached it on foot even though is was near the opposite end of the town from our apartment. The climb (many steps) to the fortress is well worth the effort but there is also a free elevator provided by the town. If you want to comprehend how nice it is, visit busy Saumur which is full of traffic, stop lights, priorité a droit, steep roads, and noise.

Architecture (limestone) unchanged for centuries, elsewhere troglodyte constructions. Historic castle. Numerous restaurants (especially Hotel de la Paix). Easy access to other Chateaux de la Loire, great atmosphere.
The hotel is in an old building with lots of charm that has been impeccably renovated and exquisitely decorated. The rooms look out onto a private garden which adds to the charm. The owner was very nice and accomodating and helped us by recommending local restaurants. The breakfast is delicious - excellent coffee, juice, and fruit and a mix of items from the local boulangerie along with some homemade sweets. The location was perfect - walking distance to everything. All this at a very reasonable price. We will absolutely stay here again.
One of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in. The room was spacious and comfortable and beautifully furnished, it had a fantastic bathroom too. The building, gardens and hotel in general are beautifully cared for, exquisitely designed and exceptionally clean. The gentleman who greeted us was lovely and friendly, giving us recommendations of things to do and places to eat. Breakfast was sublime, full of local and homemade produce. And then there’s the location, overlooked by the fortress! I wish we could have stayed longer.
Stepping through the gate at Gîte la comète is stepping into a beautiful, quiet paradise. The gîte is just perfect with a small kitchen, very well equipped, the bedroom/ sitting area is comfortable and spacious. Bathroom is modern and well equipped.
Right outside the door is a small courtyard with chairs, tables, and just perfect for dining or just relaxing. Sylvie, the owner has decorated everywhere with personal knickknacks and plants galore. Our stay there was one of the best we’ve ever stayed!
Comfortable room. Enjoyable and satisfying breakfast (very pleasant garden terrace for taking breakfast) and well located for visiting Chinon (a short walk across the bridge over the Vienne river) and the surrounding areas.
Rudy and Mathieu were excellent hosts, very friendly and welcoming. They were accommodating for the little extras or changes we requested. We couldn't have asked for more. Will happily return to Hôtel Rive Sud for another stay.
Charming country bed and breakfast property with delightful attentive hosts. Room with rustic beams and very comfortable bed. Use of swimming pool with towels provided. The breakfast was excellent and beautifully presented. Very convenient location for visiting the chateaux in the region and pretty town of Chinon. Good stopover on the way up to Caen.
Close to Chinon and various other Chateaux. Clean and well presented and a warm welcome from the owner who kept in contact during our journey and the lady who met us on arrival. Convenient parking outside the property. Air conditioning unit in the first bedroom and fans in both bedrooms were very much appreciated.
Nothing I could write here could do justice to this extraordinary hotel and its extremely attentive host. Suffice to say that you should definitely stay here if you are in Chinon. The owner of this beautiful hotel goes out of his way to make his guests happy. I fell in love.
Great place for a stop-over in Chinon. Studio Room with a big balcony and a big bathroom, no traffic noice from the road. Very central location for a walk to the town center. The Hotel owner was very friendly. Thank you for the one night stay. 🙏😘
I can’t fine 1 thing in this hotel why this hotel would not get the 100% perfect customer experience. So much attention for details and so friendly !.. onze of the best hotels I’ve stayed in for many years ( and there were a lot)
Extremely nice host welcomed us to a very beautiful property. Very complete equipment, comfortable bedding, well equipped kitchen, nice pool, onsite parking...The house is located in a quiet village just outside Chinon.
The welcome was extremely warm and staff was helpful. I was so impressed with how well-kept and cared-for the hotel was. Breakfast was unusually good as well. Overall, I felt it was a tremendous value for money.
The room was beautiful, the terrace was peaceful, and the stairwell was charming. The hostess and her hospitality was exceptional.
Breakfast was the far exceeded the other 4 hotels we enjoyed in France
Beautiful property, Chinon was minutes away by car. Host had excellent recommendations, room was quiet and comfortable. Host was always available for any questions or assistance.
This hotel is very close to the centre of Chinon. The Thursday market is held in the square in front of the hotel.
