Clean, generous, roomy, functional, all the essentials, comfortable beds. We booked a value hotel because of the dog so didn't expect much, this is not a fluffy towel, luxury hotel the room felt slightly basic on entry but the fact was the room had everything we needed and more. The bed was exceptionally comfortable with deliciously soft pillows. The room was huge with doors to a little private terrace and importantly we were able to black out the light at night with the shutters. It had been cleaned very thoroughly - essential when dogs stay. Nice hot shower and a good size bathroom. Little kitchenette in the corner was really well equipped. Also not far to walk from the parking. WiFi was excellent and connects instantly all round the hotel. The pool was great. Then there was dinner. THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT. Dinner was taken on a little terrace not far from the pool, with a beautiful view of the city, attentive waiters, fresh, classic French food, followed by a stroll around the pretty rural surroundings.

The few bad reviews are bewildering, which hotel did they go to???

We liked being able to drive up and park easily. the gardens and terraces are lovely and it was great to be able to relax by the pool after a long hot drive. Beautiful terrace bar and restaurant and our studio room was spacious, airy and comfortable. Great beds and nice little outside seating area. Nice views across the vines and over Saumur. Good reception staff. Nice food in the restaurant.

breakfast was ok, just average and overpriced (Euro 25 p.p.) for the range and quality. The restaurant was excellent with very good food, however most of our choices (wine and menu) were unavailable so that we were 'upsold' on everything and ended up spending more than we would have wished for an overnight stop.

Nice little holiday village with a decent restaurant and fabulous views. My room was clean and functional and had a very comfortable bed with great pillows and aircon. However, it was the lovely staff who made it such a pleasure to stay there. They were friendly and helpful and incredibly kind when my car broke down (terminally!) and I was very stressed about trying to get home without it. I hope very much to come back and stay again.

Nothing.

Boutique feel, only slightly more expensive than chain hotels but 100% more charm. Pool/dining layout fantastic, great views from the terraces. Great room which felt more like an apartment than a hotel room, two balconies, air conditioning and window shutters all welcome additions. Fab individual decor.

For the fee paid nothing at all

The space was excellent. Large bedroom, good size sitting room and small kitchen, plus a large wooden decked terrace which was perfect for dining on as the sun set. Very quiet. The pool area was beautiful, clean with lovely view over the city to the chateau.

Positioned on the outskirts of Saumur with no other bars or restaurants in the area. A good posion though for exploring by car

This hotel was superb. It was in a lovely quiet spot with clear views. It felt like a very special place and a real treat. We would return again without hesitation. We had a delicious dinner and were made very welcome. We speak very little French but had no issues at check in or in the restaurant.

We had one very minor irritation with the terrace outside our room. This would not deter us from returning.

Lovely greeting from very friendly staff. The room was pleasant with a great view and very good facilities for a small kitchenette. Nice private outside space (Palmera Room I think?) Comfy bed and nice and clean. Great parking.

A mere observation and my opinion. Photos make this look better than it actually is. The outside areas are very tired and in need of a spruce up.

Great view from the balcony and the table, chairs and umbrella out there made it a great space. The whole hotel was clean and tidy. Bed comfortable, air conditioner was quiet and worked well. Bathroom was a good size and looked like it had been recently updated. Restaurant food was excellent.

The signage to get to the hotel was non-existent. Need a car if you stay here. Pool is quite small & the hot tub costs extra. Watch out for the gaps in the decking, we had a couple of issues with this.

The location is great with lovely views. Only a 8 min drive into the town. The staff were really friendly and seemed to happy to work there. We only stopped over for a night, but really enjoyed it. We travelled on a Friday in August and there was music in the town and then a band playing at the hotel when we returned. They didn’t mind we had two kids in tow and there was a great atmosphere.

Nothing. If I could wish for something more it would be to have better towels in the bathroom. But everything was great.

Great to have all the facilities of hotel but the freedom of a studio with a lovely private terrace. The food in the restaurant was excellent and our young waitress was a delight.

The restaurant manager could be quite rude at times, hut we didn't let it spoil our enjoyment.
