Hostellerie La Croix Blanche

Beautiful old hotel

We really liked this very pretty and comfortablel hotel, we had a lovely time there, the pool was a welcome sight as it was hot while were there. The room was comfortable and very clean with a good shower etc. The restaurant was also really good. A special thank you to the ladies on reception for being so welcoming and helpful. We hope to return again soon. A small thing that would be nice in the room would be tea/coffee making facilities. We highly recommended this hotel.

Everything was top-class. We are never disappointed. Beautiful dining experience.

Very attractive and across road from Abbey. Need to book for dinner.

The reception staff were super helpful before and during our stay, advising us how to get to the hotel from the nearest train station (and recommending a cab company since they needed to be ordered in advance). We were warmly welcomed and super pleased with our rooms, which were beautiful, modern, well thought-out and very comfortable. The lounge areas were cozy and reflected the historic building that houses the hotel. Our dinner in the peaceful courtyard linking the hotel with its adjoining restaurant was delicious, and the service friendly. The breakfast buffet next morning was extensive and included cook-your-own soft-boiled eggs and the best croissants, plus (house-made?) lox salmon. The only downside was that the hot weather required us to sleep with our windows open. Unfortunately, this subjected us to the noise from the restaurant kitchen as the staff finished tidying up after closing. If we'd been able to keep our windows closed, it wouldn't have been an issue. Other than that, I can't say enough good things about this delightful hotel.

Right outside of the gates of the fontevraud abbey,good service and selection of food open all day,35degrees on are visit so hotel very warm especially on 2 nd floor ,water ,fan,and light sheet supplied for sleeping,car parking right on site,and free.

Great location, great outdoor pool. Good choice of places to eat.

Lovely room. Friendly staff. Nice pool good restaurant. Wonderful location right opposite the abbey and on a charming square. Wish we could have remained another day

Beautiful hotel. Shame no kettle and tea making facilities not in room. No plug near mirror to do hair except in bathroom. Restaurant next door excellent. Very comfy bed.

Great location for visiting vineyards in the Loire Valley. The room was comfortable and had character. There was a small pool on-site with lovely gardens / flowers. The restaurant served very high quality food and English was spoken throughout.

Good location, comfortable bed, friendly staff.

Amazing couple of nights at Hostellerie La Croix Blanche. Beautiful location on a lovely little typically French square with outdoor tables. Perfectly placed for day trips to near by chateaux and towns. Had dinner at the hotel restaurant both nights and the food was absolutely exquisite and astonishingly good value for money. Would highly recommend staying here for the food alone. 10/10 visit.

Lovely Loire hotel in picturesque village on the doorstep of the Fontevraud-l'Abbaye. Stayed overnight on outward journey but made time to revisit the village on return leg.

Stayed for 1 night with my husband & two frends. Overnight stop to break the journey home to England from the Dordogne. Our room was no 19 & ok apart from the toilet not flushing properly but our friends had to change their room as their shower did not work at all. The rooms are a bit dated & could do with a facelift ! On the other hand, we ate in the hotel restaurant that night & the food was exceptionally good. €29 for 3 fantastic courses . So I would definitly eat there again.

Nice hotel great stop over, our room was ground floor and next to a private dining room that were celebrating! Fortunately we were so tired we just crashed . Restaurant does not cater for vegetarians despite asking they could only manage a green salad for dinner.

Great location in village centre, very helpful staff, lovely room. Excellent restaurant for dinner.

This hotel is perfectly located for visiting the Fontevraud Abbey and surrounding area. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is clean, service excellent. I highly recommend it!

Friendly staff who all spoke English well. Well situated next to the abbey which is well worth a visit. Room was clean and quiet, but had no tea making facilities. Car parking was behind hotel and initially difficult to find. Restaurant served excellent food. Would return without hesitation.

The machine that would check you in rejected three Credit Cards; all of which were good. This required me to call the owner that had us wait ten more minutes. He was good and took care of the problem, but none of this would have e been required if his machine had worked.

Rooms were VERY dull! The first one we were shown was a very dull dark brown and had very little natural light. It was also stiflingly hot. To get more natural light we had to upgrade, which, as it was a fairly pricey hotel anyway, was not what we were looking to do. Our 'upgraded' room turned out to be above a store room which staff used, quite noisily, as late as 23.00 and as early as 6.30am, a bit of a pain. The breakfast was ok, but they had to go out and buy extra croissant every morning, which seemed a bit daft. Evening meal was very good on both times we went there.
