The Rive Sud is a beautiful family-run bed & breakfast in walking distance to the charming little town of Chinon. It is located near the bike route "la Loire à Vélo". All rooms are clean and tastefully decorated. We could leave our bicycles in safe shelter on the premises. Breakfast is lovely with homemade yogurt, fresh bread and viennoiseries. Rudy and Mathieu are very nice and happy to help finding a good restaurant nearby. They did everything to make our stay an unforgettable experience - thank you so much for your hospitality!

Chinon is easily walkable from the river up to the castle/fortress ruins on small streets that are still used in the daily lives of its’ residents. Although old, it is lively and offers many restaurants and shops for any needs you may have. Rather a charming, old city.

The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history.
The Royal Palace was excellent, with a lot of history. The old town was very picturesque with some excellent restaurants. A lot of climbing although there is a lift from the lower town to the fortress. A good range of shops, cafes and bars.

Chinon has the feel of a village.
Chinon has the feel of a village. It is not that small, but there is a sense of security and ample access to food, wine, and services all reached on foot. There is no need to use a car in town. The weekly market is vey large and we easily reached it on foot even though is was near the opposite end of the town from our apartment. The climb (many steps) to the fortress is well worth the effort but there is also a free elevator provided by the town. If you want to comprehend how nice it is, visit busy Saumur which is full of traffic, stop lights, priorité a droit, steep roads, and noise.

Architecture (limestone) unchanged for centuries, elsewhere...
Architecture (limestone) unchanged for centuries, elsewhere troglodyte constructions. Historic castle. Numerous restaurants (especially Hotel de la Paix). Easy access to other Chateaux de la Loire, great atmosphere.
One of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in. The room was spacious and comfortable and beautifully furnished, it had a fantastic bathroom too. The building, gardens and hotel in general are beautifully cared for, exquisitely designed and exceptionally clean. The gentleman who greeted us was lovely and friendly, giving us recommendations of things to do and places to eat. Breakfast was sublime, full of local and homemade produce. And then there’s the location, overlooked by the fortress! I wish we could have stayed longer.
Charming country bed and breakfast property with delightful attentive hosts. Room with rustic beams and very comfortable bed. Use of swimming pool with towels provided. The breakfast was excellent and beautifully presented. Very convenient location for visiting the chateaux in the region and pretty town of Chinon. Good stopover on the way up to Caen.
Our recent stay at the hotel was excellent, the Room we were allocated was excellent, the lady manager was very helpful, the location was perfect for our needs with parking right outside of the hotel, and an easy evening stroll into the centre of Chinon. Just a great place!
The hotel is a beautiful building in an enclosed courtyard with a flourishing garden giving a really sense of luxury. We ate the lovely breakfast with home made marmalades in the terrace and it’s just a short stroll to restaurants and the fortress.
The welcome was extremely warm and staff was helpful. I was so impressed with how well-kept and cared-for the hotel was. Breakfast was unusually good as well. Overall, I felt it was a tremendous value for money.
The owner was exceptionally hospitable and knowledgeable (he guided and supported our visit to Chinon). Stellar owner, and what a magnificent property.
Spacious, fully equipped rooms,and amazing breakfast!
It was well positioned in the center of the town. Easy to walk round and near the river. excellent hotel restaurante and bar three doors away which also offer a very good breakfast for 12.50 euros.
Everything!! Just like a beautiful small boutique hotel in the heart of gorgeous Chinon. Amazing breakfast and absolutely everything thought of by Maurice - thanks for sharing your amazing home.
We loved our stay at Nature & Chateau. The apartment was in the centre of Chinon, easy walk to everything. Lovely views of the medieval town from all windows. Very clean and comfortable
Great Location
Small, friendly hotel situated only a short walk over the bridge from the centre of Chinon. Rooms clean and comfortable. Breakfast room and breakfast buffet lovely.
Beautiful house very close to the centre of Chinon. Lovely hosts. Everything was clean an comfortable. A very good breakfast, with the best homemade yoghurt.
