Spacious room & close to train station

Spacious rooms (especially in Europe, where rooms are usually tiny!!!) and close to train station (4min walk). Walkable to restaurants in the charming downtown area (about 20min walk).

Good hotel which I've used many times in the past. Centrally located near the train station with the centre of Tours being walkable in 20 minutes or so. Room was clean, as was bathroom. A/C worked and the wifi was sufficiently fast. I didn't take breakfast as I needed to leave early. Underground car park was cheap at 11/eur per night. However, its a bit tight if you have a big car.

Tour in Tours

We had a reservation added onto the tour we were taking so we stayed two nights, the staff were great accommodating us with no confusion. The hotel was walking distance from the station and numerous restaurants. It was easy to access the routes we had to get to for our tour (in Tours)

The location is convenient for coming in by train as it's very close to the train station. It's also very walkable to nearby restaurants and shops. The staff were friendly and professional. There was a confusion at check out where they asked me to pay taxes that I was already asked to pay at check-in but when I showed him the charge on my credit card account he allowed me to not pay it even though his system did not show it was paid. They also informed me directly after check-out that I had left some jewelry there and offered to ship it to me. I was then immediately contacted by a contracted company they use for shipping to set it up and only had to pay around $40 for 2 day shipping. Overall, the room was spacious for European standards and very well designed. We enjoyed our 2 night stay here.
