Hotels in Centre-Val de Loire

The magic of old stones

Our hotels and restaurants ensure you have a pleasant stay in the country of the castles of the Loire. For a weekend or a week, explore the exceptional sites of Chambord, Cheverny or Amboise. Visit the gardens at the château de Villandry, and follow in the steps of Ronsard in Prieuré-saint-Cosme. In Tours, you can admire the flamboyant gothic-style façade of the cathedral of Saint-Gatien, truly unparalleled lacework in stone. When night falls, the city’s monuments are illuminated for the pleasure of those taking a walk.

In Rabelais country

Touraine is also the country of Rabelais and good food. Among the most typical local produce of Centre-Val de Loire, you have to try St. Maure-de-Touraine goat’s cheese, dried pears from Rivarenne, nougat, or Tours rillettes pâté. And to delight any children, there is local cola and lemonade, made by La Loere, that they can enjoy while the adults check out the AOC Touraine wines:Vouvray, Chinon and Bourgueil.

Loire by bike

The Loire bike tour is a scenic tourist route that allows you to combine nature and heritage at your own pace alongside this majestic river. Imagine your itinerary for a weekend or week, through the vineyards, from castle to castle, meeting the locals. This kind of generous and convivial ‘slow tourism’ is also what you’ll find in the evenings, after an awesome day, in the comfort of your Campanile room.
