Hotel has a charming property and situation, with beautiful gardens and setting. The interiors are a bit worn and dated, but very clean. Food was average. Bed and pillows were not terribly comfortable, and noise can be a problem if you are close to the elevator and central staircase. The best assets of the hotel were the competent and charming staff, and the proprietress. Service was excellent. I would recommend the hotel as a basic hotel in a good location for touring the Loire Valley, though the town of Tavers is a bit off the beaten track. It is only 5 minutes drive from Beaugency, which offers a crossing to the south side of the Loire, as well as good access to highways and scenic routes alike.
