First thing to know is that this hotel is not in Sancerre, but rather in St-Thibault, on the Loire, about a ten minute drive out of Sancerre. Our room, the Coloniale, was very tastefully decorated, spacious and comfortable. And it looked out on to the Loire. We peeked into a few other rooms and they were all well done, on... More

Second visit to stock up on Sancerre wine (5mins drive). Beautifully clean and efficient. Nice breakfast but no restaurant, however the Auberge round has wonderful french cuisine. We will definitely be returning.

Upon arriving at Hotel de la Loire, my group of 5 (from 3 countries) were greeted by the very charming manager/host with his kind smile. After driving all day, it felt amazing to immediately be taken to our rooms (without the usual annoying check-in and paper work and rules). He took us to one of their themed rooms and we... More

Very friendly proprietor, large clean, well furnished room overlooking the river. No tea tray unfortunately, but mine host happy to oblige if requested. Restaurants within a couple of minutes walk, we were there for one night only and ate in the Ship which is very like a village pub, with a log fire and bags of atmosphere. The food was... More

This was one of four hotels we stayed in on a tour of the Loire Valley and one of the most fabulous rooms ever. We travelled with family and each of us had a different theme to our rooms, ours being that of Louis XI but they were all so lovely. Our room was large and clean and gorgeous with... More

Spent one night here and we enjoyed the quiet riverfront location, and decent restaurant opposite. Staff were v friendly/helpful and everything worked well and was of a high standard. Sympathise with others though who flag the attractions of staying in Sancerre itself, which would have provided bar & restaurant options. Also agree with Bigjohn29 that it is now more of... More

We spent a night here in June during a 1 week trip through the Loire and Berry region. Probably a fantastic choice for travelers on bicycles because you don't have to climb up to Sancerre but there are hotels in Sancerre itself that aren't rated on Trip Advisor that would make a great stop to stay in the lovely city...

Spent five nights at this lovely place, and really enjoyed it. Place is a b& b more than our understanding of a hotel,( no bar or resteraunt), but a really quiet, charming, relaxing place to stay, & well located for touring the loire valley, vineyaeds etc. The service is top class and the people very friendly & helpful, ie they...

This hotel is a few kilometers away from Sancerre, but the drive is worth it. The rooms are on a quiet street, across from the Loire River, and parking is easy. The rooms are fairly big and nicely furnished. The proprietors are friendly; the male half of the couple speaks good English. He gave us some great restaurant recommendations. We... More
