Forteresse Royale de Chinon

Exceptional multilingual staff. Great location. I had the largest suite so it was a very spacious room. Tons of extra amenities, but you will not have washcloths. I was greet with champagne and had a bottle of champagne, water, and macaroons in the room. There is a mini fridge in the room with items to purchase. There is a wonderfully deep bathtub high off the ground,in the suite. The shower pressure was great. You will need a high step and have good balance getting out. It was an older hotel and had a dust smell, but you can open 2 gigantic windows to air it out. It was charming and very Paris. It was a nice view on the second floor. If you walk to the Main Street you can see the Eiffel Tower. I liked walking to the main street to see the night show of the Eiffel tower. Americans will love the two thermostats to set the temperature in the room (suite)to very cold if you like. It was a lifesaver in August. There are two elevators. They have someone on duty to open locked hotel entry doors at night. They have a wonderful bar. I didn’t use the buffet but it looked nice and professional. I will next time. You can walk to the Louvre. There is an excellent macaroons shop (just doors down), restaurants, shopping, transportation (electric bikes, metro,and bus stop). The staff ordered my taxi for the airport. I was grateful. I will definitely return. This hotel made my first trip to Paris wonderfully memorable.

amazing property for family holiday together.
