Just stayed four nights with a group. Lovely hotel but seemed incapable of catering for two vegetarians, even with advance notice.

Le Chinon is very dated, rather dark, with a musty smell and there is noting else that distinguishes it from the many 2 and 3 star hotels all over France. The location is not too bad though, only about a 10... More

We have stayed here more than once. Superb restaurant - ask for a terrace table on warm evenings. The views of the majestic castle perched on the cliffs aboce Chinon are stunning. Large comfortable rooms and great value More
