The accommodation was very tired, a little shabby but it was acceptable. The restaurant as part of the hotel was very nice and enjoyable

Easy to locate hotel. Ample free public parking directly opposite hotel, but be warned that on Thursdays some of the parking areas are used for the weekly market, so are prohibited and cars would need to be moved on Wednesday night to an unrestricted part of the car park. Location of hotel is very good for an easy, gentle stroll into the centre, with lots of restaurants, cafes and places of interest. Reception staff helpful and friendly.. Room was spacious and clean.

Second time staying here and I really enjoy the quaint atmosphere of the hotel. It feels old-school with lovely wooden staircases, shutters and exposed beams. Free parking and a short walk into Chinon. Lovely

Chinon is easily walkable from the river up to the castle/fortress ruins on small streets that are still used in the daily lives of its’ residents. Although old, it is lively and offers many restaurants and shops for any needs you may have. Rather a charming, old city.

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.

Chinon is a charming town.
Chinon is a charming town. Good size, not too small and full of exceptional restaurants. Close to many wineries and Chateaus.b we ate at Les Annes 30 and Table de La Jeanne. Both of them were really good.
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!
The breakfast was excellent. We enjoyed both the food and the ambiance of the breakfast rooms. There was enough variety in the foods to satisfy everyone in our party of four.
The staff here is amazing. The hotel is small and they do a great job accommodating guests.
There is a wonderful courtyard that is ideal for relaxing at any time. Room was small but with very comfortable beds and very clean.
I would stay there any time again and again!
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.
Beautiful garden and outside spaces. Easy parking outside the gate. Quirky decorating touches. Close to the Château, the excellent boulangerie and wine tasting. Handy for Chinon ( there's a lift down to the old town), Well stocked, small kitchen. Smelt lovely! Plenty to do for 3 days. We really liked it so the few comments 'didn't like' are only small things.
Lovely huge room with bed, dining and seating area in an old manor house in the centre of Chinon. Beautifully decorated with a little outdoor seating area. Some road noise, but not intrusive. Useable separate kitchen and bathroom. Small but perfectly formed. The hosts could not have been nicer or more helpful. Would definitely stay again over a hotel.
Our recent stay at the hotel was excellent, the Room we were allocated was excellent, the lady manager was very helpful, the location was perfect for our needs with parking right outside of the hotel, and an easy evening stroll into the centre of Chinon. Just a great place!
It was a perfect match for visiting the Loire Valley coming from Paris, A perfect house, with very friendly people to receive us, it was more than perfect. I Strongly recommend to come to Chinon, very beautifull and peacifull city and stay in this house.
We booked a standard room which was clean and comfortable.... The hosts were friendly and the breakfast had a very good choice.. all round a very good stay. Well located to walk into the Town of Chinon and opposite the river..
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 Hotel was completely redone and yet still kept the old charm. Our host was entertaining and helpful. Everything was clean and comfortable, the location was great. breakfast was truly an amazing experience.
The host was very friendly, the facilities were clean and generous. Breakfast was excellent with a wide ranging buffet. The hotel was ideally placed to explore Chinon on foot. Excellent restaurant close by.
The property was basically built into the wall of the Château it had a lovely garden to enjoy the evening sun
It very much felt like someone’s home but you were given full privacy and access
We loved our stay at Nature & Chateau. The apartment was in the centre of Chinon, easy walk to everything. Lovely views of the medieval town from all windows. Very clean and comfortable
