Logis Hôtel de l'Europe

I absolutely loved this hotel. Where to start? The staff is caring and professional and will go to great lengths to provide good service. The entire house is impeccably clean and well organized - even the smallest rooms (I may have had one) are welcoming, tidy, and functional. WiFi is strong. Breakfast is off the charts wonderful (special marks to pastries from Emile Boulangerie - luscious). Local products featured throughout. Just so far from the routine predictable chain hotel experience. A true small European family-run inn. And again, the people, just can’t say enough.

We were traveling all day and ended up in Poitiers, we hadn’t made a reservation we were tired after driving all day, we were concerned that we wouldn’t find a hotel with private parking as we had been warned that it was difficult to find spaces, we drove through saw the hotel stopped and asked if they had space, what a pleasant surprise this place was, private parking for a very reasonable price and honestly trying to find parking would have been stressful and we probably would have just continued to drive through, what made the stay enjoyable was the incredibly friendly staff we were shown the room first as we are a family of 4 we opted for the family room, nothing fancy but everything clean and tidy, the beds were comfortable and all basic needs were met, we stayed for pre drinks before heading out for dinner, both our children who are musicians found the piano ! I was so concerned that we would disrupt the quite vibe but they totally embraced a impromptu in house gig with a few of the guests coming in to have a listen, there is also the benefit of a little garden which we made use of for a couple of hours. But what really stood out was the breakfast, we have traveled all over France and I’m yet to find such a passionate madame as here,the breads were all hand made and the brioche madam made was delicious, all the jams seem to be either homemade or locally produced. If I had to find anything to criticize it would be the minimum toiletries, but I can get over that !

Relaxed stay in a truely comfortable hotel. At very central location in the historic centre of Poitiers. Facilitates a stop-over that feels like a (short) holiday in itself. Highly recommended

The Hotel de L’Europe gave us everything we were after to break our drive down to the Dordogne: - on site parking (pay extra) - a big, comfortable bed - a big enough bedroom to set up our son’s cot (we chose to bring our own! - a little garden for our toddler to run around - tasty breakfast buffet - close proximity to lots of restaurants and the main sights of Poitiers - helpful staff We brought our own shampoo and body wash. Hotel toiletries always a lottery!

It was very close to the shops and restaurants. There was a garden for a drink an aperitif. There was parking , if you booked in advance which was great.

Although the room is very small, it is very clean, reception accommodated our request for garden view and all personnel have been quite helpful. No elevator to the 2nd floor in the garden view building. Low price but pretty bare bones. We were charged $10 more for A/C but since it has turned cold, we have been told that will be reversed. Plentiful restaurants nearby and convenient to pedestrian area as well as the train station.

Perfect pit stop on our way further south. Everything you need for a relaxing break ahead of the next leg. Ideally situated for old town exploring, cafes and restaurants.

Not as good as we expected based on previous reviews. Our room was old & showed signs of age. No aircon in room so it was too hot to sleep Its advertised as having a bar but I'd hardly call a couple of bottles on a shelf a bar. We went back to the hotel early after our evening meal because the weather was bad & thought we'd have a couple of drinks in the hotel bar but were told it was closed which was annoying bearing in mind it wasnt really a bar as such. Parking was good, breakfast just ok. We won't stay again.

Our room was small and very basic, though with a small balcony. The bathroom had a shower that relied on a water pump, which produced rhythmic surges in the pressure. The paper products were on the rough side.We stayed in a newer section, which has an elevator. The main building has a very elegant staircase, which fortunately we did not have climb, an agreeable old-fashioned parlor, and a serviceable breakfast room. Theoretically, there is a bar, but in practice there is no one to serve. There is good parking, which costs extra of course and must be reserved in advance. The staff is helpful and hospitable. The breakfast buffet featured a good selection of breads, pastries, cheeses, meats, yogurt, coffee, cocoa, juices, etc. The hotel is well located for restaurants and shopping, as well as sightseeing.
