Highly recommended for a budget, two star hotel. Located in the historic heart of Blois, each street-side room has splendid views of the castle and church (see photos), and is within easy walking distance of shops and cafes. Room 48 where we stayed is located on a corner site on the fourth floor, and has two large windows that open to provide a refreshing breeze. The en-suite bathroom was excellent and the twin beds were comfortable and clean. At 9 euros the breakfasts are highly recommended with eat-as-much-as you-like fresh croissants and baguettes, cheeses, hams, jams and yoghourts, plus fruit juices, teas and a freshly ground coffee machine to set you up for the day. The staff were friendly and helpful - thanks so much! We had difficulty finding the hotel until a friendly local took pity on my sister and me and drove us round the one-way system to the entrance! Think of the hotel as being located on the right side of a giant letter ‘U’, with the huge castle at the bottom, and the underground castle car park (nine euros per day) on the left side. In the centre is a park and baroque church facing the castle. Exit the car park and walk down towards the castle; cross the road and down some steps into the wooded park and past the church entrance: the hotel is straight in front on the other side of the road. The hotel provides an excellent centre for exploring the beautiful Loire. Of particular delight: Leonardo’s house in Amboise, Francois I’s Chambord, and Chenonceau (see photos).
