La Marine de Loire

We have been here twice now and despite a change of ownership it is still a very nice hotel. Nice rooms, good service, and excellent breakfast's. We all had a massage which we all enjoyed and needed after a days cycling.

We stayed a night at this spa hotel as part of our short cycling package around the Loire, and this was our first stop after a fairly short ride. Situated on the banks of the peaceful Vienne, we had one of the ground floor rooms, an indulgently spacious bathroom with everything we could want and a comfortable bed. It is not a large hotel, and in the early spring, just before tourist season, it is wonderfully quiet and we could find ourselves a spot to sit and relax on a deckchair in the garden, sipping wine without being surrounded by other guests.|There isn't a lot to do in Montsoreau itself, aside taking short excursions to Fontrevaud Abbey or further on to the mushroom caves at Saunur or some local vineyards, this hotel is just a wonderful place for quiet R&R.

Great rooms, really nice breakfast and wine bar, spa and swimming pool are perfect for a good rest. Locatio. Is great, along the river with view, many things to do around

Cozy, funky boutique hotel/resort in perfect location run by the world class staff of Eric, Carole & team. Couldn't imagine a better stay.

We had a very lovely holiday here in apartment 'Cyclades' as a family of two adults and two children (8/11), with grandparents staying next door in Belle Etoile.|The area is spectacular, right on the edge of the Loire and in a charming town. The square is almost next door with a charcuterie, boulangerie, bars and restaurants and other amenities close by, and private parking across the road. ||The apartment is lovely and decorated stylishly, but not anywhere near as bright as the pictures show - it is parallel to a 6ft wide 'corridor'/passageway so doesnt have any view as such. This makes the kitchen not a particularly nice place to sit, as its quite gloomy. Luckily the weather was great and we had dinner on outside tables in the passageway in the early evening. The kitchen in the Belle Etoile was a bit further towards the garden and a much more pleasant place to sit, and we would recommend that apartment instead of Cyclades..||The pool cabana is close by and so that was an option for sitting/relaxing as an external living room, we enjoyed the pool and spa (adults only) as a nice distraction. ||Some (easily fixed) frustrations, meant constructively: The wifi was terrible - the router was obviously placed out in the corridor somewhere, so if its raining and kids need their screens or you need to do some work/watch a film, forget it - but would have easily been fixed with some cheap boosters by the owners. The apartment did often smell of bad drains, and the fridge had no freezer compartment and so ice and frozen food was not an option. The staff did helpfully provide ice in the evenings though. There was also no cooker (just a hob and microwave) and so self-catered food options were limited. There was an amusing confusion about portable bbqs, having been advised by a member of staff that we should go to the banks of the Loire to then find out its a fineable offence! ||Overall the 'quirks' were minor as we were able to spend most of the time outside, in the pool or exploring, but in shoulder seasons if we were to spend more time inside, these frustrations would have become real issues.||The staff were friendly, and ultimately we had a great time. The Dentelliere, Montsorelli (amazing terrace view), Diane de Meridor restaurants highly recommended, and the 21-wine tasting cave at the marché des vins de loire was great fun.

This hotel is in a very beautiful location but sadly, tired and dated. The spa area was rather good but there seemed to be an absence of staff there. A warning, we had booked a suite which turned out to be on two floors and rather difficult to manage if you aren’t good with stairs. The furniture and curtains were old and the carpets looked dirty. The bathroom had a very narrow bath/shower, no slip mats or grab handles. The room rate is very expensive for what you get, ‘certainly’ not value for money. I would not recommend this hotel.

Just returning home from another (perhaps our 4th or 5th trip) thoroughly enjoyable couple of days here. Lovely, helpful staff as always. Exceptionally clean rooms with beautiful linens. We enjoyed time by the pool and using the spa facilities. The Sunday brunch was amazing as was breakfast. Looking forward to our next visit!

Excellent, calm hotel on the banks of the Loire. Our room (#3) was beautifully and freshly decorated + had views straight on to the river. Fantastic staff and great welcome too. Private car park opposite, powerful and free WiFi, spa on site plus treatment offers. Restaurant on sire and also nearby plus historical chateau - occasionally events in the town. Great hotel for a short stay. Highly recommended. 👌👌
