About this property

The beautifully restored 16th-century residence is set in the land of famous writer Rabelais in the heart of the medieval quarter of the old town of Chinon and in the Loire-Anjou-Touraine Natural Regional Park. Decorated harmoniously, the spacious and air-conditioned rooms and suites at the Best Western Hotel De France each have their own unique character. They are all equipped with modern en suite facilities and fitted with lovely furniture. Free Wi-Fi internet access is also available. This romantic hotel combines comfort and warmth with tradition, all just steps away from the cobbled streets of a city with a tremendous historical and cultural heritage. Public parking is available nearby for a fee.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip.

    Traditional, old hotel beautifully updated by current owners. Located in the top corner of the busy main square with many restaurants and shops just outside the front door. It is officially a 3 star, but this is only because it is not possible...
