“Perfect stop after a long drive.”
Beautiful hotel in the old part of Azay. Very clean and well appointed rooms. Superb breakfast. Despite being in a pedestrian area, the arrival process was easy. Better to get a parking bay.

“We loved staying here. Beautiful place, perfect for finding something to eat and do nearby”
We loved the location, the staff and the courtyard. Our room was a bit tight and dreary. The window opened on to the courtyard The breakfast was great.

“Perfect locations and a beautiful property in Azay le Rideau”
Azay le Rideau is a picturesque village and the property is in a great location on the doorstep of the chateau. It is a beautiful old property that has been thoughtfully turned into a hotel. Because it is an old building the rooms have been divided and can be a little small.

“Beautiful historic hotel in the centre of Azay, walking distance to the chateau & local restaurants”
Thomas on reception was very kind and helpful. We loved the small courtyard garden and the fact the bike storage was opposite the hotel

“Totally fabulous, elegant hotel with terrific breakfast”
Terrific location in centre of town, beautiful house with lovely sitting room and gorgeous courtyard garden for drinks & nibbles or just relaxing, friendly host Thomas - and outstanding breakfast. Spacious room with large bed and bathroom (we were allocated the accessible room so possibly bigger than a standard double). Despite being on the ground floor with windows onto the street there was no noise from outside to disturb us - it's a civilised little town. Superb all round.
