It isn't inside Tours, but the bus stop is minutes away from the hotel, and the bus takes you straight to the Tours train station and Tourist Information Office.

Simple basic stopover hotel.

A standard French budget hotel but is exactly what it says it is. It was simple, clean and perfect for a stopover. Large fairly secure car park and a reasonable breakfast. No frills but does the job. Lots of fast food places within walking distance.

Not truly “dog friendly”

Room was perfect. They advertise on their website & hotels.com that their are dog friendly with no restrictions. When we arrived it turned out the have a 15kg restriction which we did not meet. We also could not leave the dog alone in the property even though he is an older, well behaved (non noise making dog). We were made sign a document to agree to their conditions in order for our dog to be accepted. We obviously felt like we had little choice and this affected our plans for the evening. The staff we interacted with were very nice but don’t advertise being dog friendly on your website & hotels.com with no restrictions, when you have quite limiting restrictions.

the rooms are on the small size but I knew that and found it adequate for a one night stay before moving. the position on the old RN10 main road should not faze anyone: it is very quiet at night and you can always request a rom at the read when booking.

Excellent for a quick stopover. Heavy traffic getting in and out of Tours so if you want to explore the chateaux of the Loire look for a smaller town.
