Love this hotel. Azay le Rideau is a great place to stay in the Loire. The hotel is in the centre and walking distance from the Chateau.
Am a repeat customer, have stayed a few times now and have brought various friends with me.
I love the staff, they are so helpful and friendly, love the rooms,, the beds are super comfy! It's quiet at night too.
Parking is easy.
Highly recommend, breakfast is great too.
Great place to base yourself in the Loire.

A refaire sans hésiter
Pros:

Un superbe accueil par le personnel, qui nous a même accompagné à notre chambre. Courte explication du fontionnement de la clime et des équipements de la chambre. L'hôtel est très central, le parking sécurisé (payant) juste en face de l'hôtel, un autre parking publique juste derrière l'hôtel. Magnifique demeure, l'hôtel peut porter ses 4 étoiles avec fierté. Bravo !

Cons:

Rien, tout était parfait.

Pros:

Bâtiment historique splendide
Aménagement de goût et de grande qualité

Cons:

Très belle chambre avec grande hauteur de plafond, un peu difficile à chauffer en plein hiver mais... commande manuelle a permis de pousser un peu la température. En 1h, tout était très bien.
