The hotel offers a comfortable stay with welcoming staff in a great location for exploring Chinon. While the rooms are clean and fresh, they lack modern touches, and enjoying personal drinks in the courtyard would have been a nice addition. The dining experience is made special with homemade jams but may not suit all preferences.
