Top Loire Valley Hotel Reviews

Château Belmont Tours by The Crest Collection

Château Belmont Tours by The Crest Collection

8/10 Good
"This is an absolutely beautiful hotel in its own grounds within easy reach of the city centre. The grounds are stunning and the buildings are very well maintained yet preserving the atmosphere of the chateau. The majority of the staff are very friendly and helpful. However, whilst parking is a luxury for hotels in the city, the parking garage is best suited for cars not much bigger than a Fiat 500. It’s very tight but once you get parked, the car is safe. Breakfast on the days of our trip was disappointing. The quality is very good but the eggs were cold, the yoghurt run out causing the team to run out to the supermarket, which also had run out. Only one hot drink machine was available causing a long wait for coffee. This was probably a bad day out of many good days but it took the shine away. Gents, you’ll need good old fashioned tight swimming trunks to use the pool. Alas, at 58 years old, it’s not a look that I can wear well these days, and as such, I didn’t use the pool."

Westotel Nantes Atlantique

10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic hotel with delightful friendly staff in all departments. The room was imaculate with good air conditioning even when it was 39 degrees outside. There is free water machines on every floor and they provide tea and nespresso making facilities. Bathrooms are clean and spacious. Rooms of a good size with desk and tv. The breakfast was superb with soya options, freshly squeezed orange juice, great pasteries and full english. Staff were very attentive and kept it super tidy. The pool is lovely and super safe for children as it has a protective barrier around to prevent little ones getting inside the enclosure. Good location close to the tram, and two supermarkets, fast food and excellent boulangerie near by. Close to major arterial roads. The one thing that was puzzling was that you can link up your device to the tv to watch on a bigger screen by bluetooth/air play but it didn't stay connected. There was also an HDMI socket, but this didn't seem to work and no instructions. But I am being very picky as apart from the heavy footed person above our room, there is nothing to complain about, and the hotel can't solve that one. I LOVED this hotel and hope to return again when we are travelling through the area."
