A warm welcome, a spotless room (style shabby chic), and, though I encountered a connectivity proble, there was laptop by reception. Splendid range at breakfast. The hotel is noted for being "green" (in French "bio") and it scored highly in this respect, too. Would I return? Definitely!

The hotel is easy to find from train station St. Laud, which is important if you are new in town and arriving by train late in the evening. There is always someone at the desk in the lobby, so it's easy to get any information and service you need. I strongly support environment-friendly approach of the hotel, however, balcony shades...

The rooms were nice and clean. The service was wonderful and the breakfasts with fresh squeezed orange juice helped make for a wonderful stay! It is near the train station and an easy walk to the Chateau. I wish we would have had more time in this city!

I traveled with a group of Tourism professionals. The rooms are outdated. The bath tub still had hair in it and the bathroom was smelly. breakfast was quite average. I would look for a private nice B&B outside town. People who get to this area have a car anyway.

We stayed here as a part of a tour, so we didn't really have a choice where we stayed. However, we found the hotel very clean and well appointed. It was also very convenient for the train station and the town (only a 5-10 minute walk to the Chateau, shops and restaurants of Angers. We are vegetarian so didn't eat... More

I chose this hotel for its location as it is opposite the railway station ( like any main railway station, it can attract a few homeless people). Quiet hotel with a good service: I was given information about wifi without asking for it. The staff was smiling and helpful. My room has been recently refurbished and it could do with... More

We spent one night in Hotel de France on our way to Charente Maritime. All in all, it was a decent stay at a good hotel. The ups: the location is great. The best boulangerie we encountered in 3 weeks in France is a stone's throw away - get breakfast from there and bring it up to your room! The... More

Loved this hotel. Excellent location across from train station and only a 10 minute walk from the chateau and other sites. Pretty decor which was much nicer than more expensive hotels in other areas of the Loire. Enough light to read in bed by (a rarity in French hotels), and mounted high enough so you could hold a book up.... More

Excellent location near the SNCF Gare, but a cut above the average traveler hotels located around train stations. Angers is a delightful city, and it's small enough that you can see it all on foot from this hotel. There's even a good selection of restaurants in the immediate neighbourhood. Coming to Angers? Stay here.

The best thing about this hotel is its central location, not too far from the station. We thought it might get noisy at night time, but we had nothing to fear. Our bedroom was a bit on the small side with the bed squeezed against the wall, although it was otherwise very clean and welcoming. we did have a nice... More
