NOTE: I don't know where the Grand comes from - it doesn't appear on any signage. Stayed for 2 nights to attend a wedding at the Chateau Reignac. MAde the mistake of getting a taxi from Tours - 80 euros although taxi driver woudn't accept more than 70 so even she thought it steep! Basic accomodation - tired decor in... more

Comfortable hotel, but old and a bit shabby. The hotel reminded us of an old Victorian home transformed into a hotel... In other words, a bit quirky. Our room was huge with 2 big beds. We thought at first that the room did not have a toilet because the bathroom had only a tub/shower, bidet, and sink. However, we discovered... more

We booked into this hotel before leaving home for one night with the intention of moving on the following day, however, our experience was so enjoyable that we ended up staying for another 3 nights. We arrived late in the evening, and were made welcome. The room we stayed in was a good size, comfortable bed, tv, plently of storage... more

We stayed at the Grand Hotel in Loches for one night on our way to the ferry port. Having followed the signs for the car park of the hotel we failed at the last hurdle by not noticing the large black gate with an intercom. I rushed to reception to ask the way and a very nice man explained very... more

This hotel is certainly "Grand" in the old style. Staying here was like stepping back in time to a more elegant era. Courteous (but not English-speaking) staff, old-fashioned rooms and service made it a memorable stay. Breakfast was served to our table, rather than the usual buffet arrangement. This meant that it was beautifully-presented but not the "as much as... more

What a find! A delightful rural hotel, full of the charm of yesteryear, with a patron who knows how to look after guests. No modern facelessness, just an easy charm and a thoughtful eye on your needs. The food was excellent. more

We shared the reactions of your Birmingham reviewer in general - a delightful small hotel right at the heart of the very lively and lovely Loches. Old fashioned but better that than the hotel desined by an accountant or furnished from a hotel fittings catalogue. Real character. The one weakness is the fixed price menu which doesn't change fro day... more

My husband and I returned to Loches this summer and stayed once again at this delightful hotel. We had a wonderful week and we were pleased and grateful that it remained as charming and welcoming as the previous year. The owners are delightful, warm people. more

It is always intriguing to read apparently contradicting reports of the same place. I booked into the Hotel de France for a few days with my wife while we were exploring the Loire. I can only say this was a welcome escape from faceless, anonymous plastic efficency of the Euro hotel. The place reminded me of the sort of warmth,... more
