About the neighborhood

Located in Chinon, Hôtel Rive Sud is near a train station and on the riverwalk. Royal Fortress of Chinon and Forteresse Royale de Chinon are notable landmarks, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Château de la Grille and Maison "Jean-Carmet" des Vins de Bourgueil. Loire-Anjou-Touraine Regional Natural Park and Château de Sonnay are two other places to visit that come recommended. Boat tours offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with rock climbing, ecotours, and hiking/biking trails nearby.

The reception was outstanding. We arrived early and were made to feel most welcome. The room is large, modern and lovely. Everything is first class, bedding, towels , etc. Breakfast was great and plenty of options. The hotel is a pleasant short walk from the old town centre. Parking is very limited but not an issue. There always seems to be free street parking right outside the hotel. A lovely stay all round.

Perfect stay at Hotel Rive Sud

Our stay at the hotel was perfect from start to finish. The owners are super friendly and offered plenty of advice about the surrounding area, and tips on recommended places to visit. The attention to detail on the decor of the whole property gives a truly comforting & relaxed feel. The hotel is in a great location within a short 5-10 minute walk in to Chinon centre. I would highly recommend this property.

We loved our stay, located a lovely 5 minute walk across the picturesque bridge from Chinon and it’s castle, this family owned and operated B&B was just what our family (2 adults, 2 children) needed. Clean room, excellent breakfast and very helpful hosts. Parking is quite easy even if it seems unlikely at first.

Week-end marathon de Chinon

Séjour pour le marathon de Chinon. L’hôtel a prit en compte ce week-end marathon en proposant le soir un excellent repas "sportif". Nous avons eu la possibilité de garder la chambre jusqu'à 14H00 afin de prendre la douche après la course. Accueil chaleureux à l'écoute. Nous avons passé un excellent week-end. Idéalement situé, calme, confort.
