ibis Styles Saumur Gare Centre

A busy and comfortable hotel with welcoming staff. Across the street from the mainline train station it is an excellent stopover. Our bicycles were stored in a secure covered enclosure behind the hotel, which is also close to the Velo Francette long distance cycle route between La Rochelle and Caen. The breakfast buffet was fabulous with a wide selection on offer including a hot choice. Stayed at the hotel many times and would have no hesitation in doing so again.

We were assigned a room on the top floor at the front of the hotel with an amazing view looking over the town and castle and we were pleased to find free and easy on-street parking available on the road outside the hotel. The room was clean and staff were pleasant and friendly. It was an easy 10 min walk into the town centre which was mostly over the two bridges crossing the river with superb views of the river Loire. The location was quieter than staying in the centre with a local rather than touristy vibe which we liked. The buffet-style breakfast had a good selection of fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereals, eggs, cold meats and cheeses along with croissants, bread and cakes and although at times the breakfast room was busy it was never overcrowded.

We enjoyed our stay at the Ibis. I fully recommend this hotel which is in a great location for Saumur and also for taking the train. Our room was spacious, clean, bright, well ventilated and silent. Perfect for a great nights' sleep. We also enjoyed a lovely healty breakfast. The staff were friendly and heloful.

Nice clean room with a very comfortable bed, air conditioning and located right across from the SNCF station which is very convenient. The day I was there it was 34 degrees so I was grateful for the air conditioning! The breakfast was good, lots of options with cereals, yogurt, juices, cheese/meats, hard boiled eggs, pastries and an automatic coffee machine. Staff were friendly, professional and helpful. The hotel is about a 15 minute walk into the center of Saumur but its a beautiful walk across the two strands of Loire River. There isn't much around the hotel that I saw for restaurants, but its worth the walk into town where you have many wonderful options.

Comfy beds, big rooms, big bathroom, towels provided. Joint room possibility if you are with family. Continental breakfast, tasty. Helpful and friendly staff. Parking secure if booking in advance for little extra fee, otherwise in the streets. Located near Saumur castle. Calm neighbourhood, air conditioner in the room.
