Excellent Christmas Hospitality

We stayed over Christmas while visiting family in the area, and while there were very few people at the hotel, the staff still have the same level of great service that we've experienced while staying there in the summer which was really lovely :)

A good address in the Loire valley

Good stay as the hotel is very well located allowing easy access to different beautiful sites in the Loire valley. Obviously it is an old refurbished building that is comfortable and well maintained. Taking several suitcases down from the second floor on our own was the only negative aspect of the stay. Otherwise staff has been very helpful.

Gien hotel

Nice little hotel near the river and handy for the restaurants. I had a suite that was huge and because it was near reception wifi was really good. No lift which is difficult if you have a lot of baggage

Average hotel

I have to start by saying we paid 74 Euros, £65.80 for a double comfort room, so at the cheap end. We stayed here for one night during a very hot July. There was no air conditioning just a desk fan. We were on the third (top) floor and there was no lift. I paid for a room with a river view but the bedroom window did not open fully so limited the view. The shower was good and the room was clean. WiFi was available but unable to view mail. Staff were helpful and friendly and it is about a 5-10 minute walk into the main town where we had a very good Indian. Breakfast was a buffet and there was a good choice, nicely laid out and a pleasant seating area. I probably would not choose to stay here again because of the lack of lift and air con.

Décevant..

Propreté qui laisse à désirer, toiles d’araignée apparente, moquette degueulasse, salle bain à refaire et sale, literie pas folle… Bref, très cher pour le peu de qualité. En lisant les commentaires, j’ai vu une différence entre le première étage et le deuxième… j’étais au troisième…

Pour un séjour très agréable à Gien

Notre « suite classique » (réservée au prix d’un placard à balai dans une grande ville), est une belle et grande chambre avec vue sur la Loire, dotée d’un très grand lit confortable, d’une entrée indépendante et de deux salles de bain ! Parfaitement équipée, la chambre comporte aussi deux bureaux et un canapé, ainsi que la climatisation dont nous n’avons pas besoin en ce mois de mai plutôt frais. La décoration est classique, voire un peu vieillotte, mais c’est ce qui nous plait ! Le petit déjeuner est servi dans une salle agréable qui donne aussi sur la Loire. Il est simple, mais bon. Le pain, notamment, est excellent ! Le personnel est d’une gentillesse et d’une prévenance remarquables. Il suffit de traverser la route pour se promener agréablement le long de la Loire. Le centre-ville est accessible à pied en moins de 10 minutes. Le petit plus est la possibilité de se restaurer jusqu’à 21h30 avec des bocaux de qualité proposés à un prix raisonnable (25 € pour entrée + plat + dessert) et des vins de la région. Les seuls petits défauts de l’hôtel sont : - Eloignement de la gare de Gien (30 minutes à pied. Heureusement, les services de taxi sont disponibles et efficaces). Si on est en voiture, on peut se garer facilement juste en face de l'hôtel. - Pas d’ascenseur, alors que notre chambre est au troisième étage. Heureusement, nous n’avons des affaires que pour trois jours. - Une seule carte pour accéder à la chambre, ce qui n’est pas toujours pratique à deux.

Attention : nous avons pris 2 chambres doubles ( nous étions 4 ) et celle du 2eme étage n’avait absolument rien à voir avec la chambre du 3eme ( même prix !) Chambre du 3eme vraiment plus petite et une odeur désagréable (comme du linge qui a mal seché), moquette tachée, sdb vétuste Choisissez une chambre au 2eme, un peu plus moderne, plus grande avec des petits balcons ( même dans la grande salle de bain) et odeur de propre Je ne comprends vraiment pas qu’elles soient au même tarif Petit déjeuner à 13,50€ et taxe de séjour à 18,50€ pour 4 sur 2 nuits En fait tout ceci me semble un peu cher pour Gien ( on n’est pas dans un lieu exceptionnellement touristique non plus !)
