Le charme désuet du mobilier de la chamvre (une vraie armoire ancienne !), le calme de la propriété. C'était vraiment le relais du silence.
Rien.

Lieu agréable et très tranquille, chambre spacieuse et confortable. La facilité d'accès à la piscine a été une bonne surprise. (les serviettes proposées à la piscine manquaient un peu d'épaisseur).

The room was beautiful and the setting was very peaceful. Had a wonderful dinner in the evening and the staff were very friendly.
The breakfast was a bit overpriced for what it offered.

Everything! Amazing place, perfect room surrounded by stunning scenery. Really pleasant staff too and very close to our favourite place in France - Montsoreau. We will be back!

Fabulous location and our host Valerie had a long list of places to have coffee, lunch and dinner at. The view of Le Cité was the best from our bedroom next to the terrace. Free parking in front of the appointment, so we were able to explore the area by foot.
Location and great facilities in the apartments

Lovely pool and jacuzzi. Comfortable bed. Beautifull building and hotel area.
No sauna, we booked last minute on a rainy day to be able to spend some time in their 'spa'. Not communicated that they did not have the sauna they advertise with. Rooms though spacious, noisy and eventough looking clean a big mold smell.

The swimming pool and jacuzzi in a historical renovated building were wonderful and very relaxing. The dinner was very, very good and its value for money great. The room was cosy and comfortable. We had a great stay!
Nothing special, the only thing that we did not find exceptional was the breakfast, as there was no homemade food.

Lovely country location yet not unreasonably far from towns.
The restaurant was closed the two nights we were there. The on-site restaurant was a big reason we chose the hotel as it meant we wouldn't need to drive to dinner. They offered a reduced menu of things like cheese and meat boards, but it still was a disappointment not to have a broader list of dinner options.

location and characteristics but too smelly from the soap factory and our bedroom had a bed encroached in the wall whilst we would prefer it close to the window
7.0 / 10.0
Gorgeous, shabby chic style hotel - authentic,
French experience in a beautiful old building.
Soap shop is an added bonus, lots of beautiful
goodies that make great gifts.
Bathrooms need an update.

We enjoyed our stay at Le Domaine de Mestre. Our room was large and nicely furnished and the location very peaceful. Our evening meal in the pretty garden was relaxing, nicely served and very enjoyable. Breakfast in the barn very good too. We particularly enjoyed visiting the soap shop.
Dog waste in the hotel grounds! No noticeable bins for dog waste,

This is a very old and charming farm-soap factory-museum and now hotel in the countryside about 1.5 miles from the Loire. It has been with the same family for over 200 years. The rooms are old (like a monastery of which it was a part centuries ago) but comfortable and clean. The staff is great. There is a lovely indoor pool. The petit dejeuner is excellent - more than worth the price. The Loire villages are very close but you do need a car. A restaurant on site serves a lovely dinner each night made with local ingredients at a very fair price. The soap boutique (they make it there) is unique. You can rent bikes in the village of Montsoreau at La Petite Reine.
Rooms are not air conditioned - weather was hot but walls thick and they gave us a fan. Guest are majority French and European if that matters to you.

Everything about this place was amazing, location, room, food and service. Would definitely recommend!
