Hotel is really quaint and done within several very old buildings - as best as possible. Decent accommodations, with the givens of walking up and down numerous stairs, dark hallways, etc.
Personnel there ranges from: exceptionally sweet young woman - who carried our heavy suitcases up two steep stairs (no elevator) - to a very unfriendly male. Requests like - making a call on our behalf to a beauty salon - were met with dismay (by the male).
The breakfast area could be easily mistaken for a US Best Western hotel. Impersonal. Food as well. The only thing - that was really cool - was the giant mural with the Rabelais character - Gargantua (the gourmand).
All in all it is an OK place with strategic location within the downtown.

Beautiful hotel, lovely room with a view of the square, great central location, easy walking distance to the fortress, surrounded by restaurants, staff were very very helpful. The only downside is that there is no elevator, but the staff were happy to help with suitcases. If arriving by train, be sure to book a taxi through the hotel WELL in advance to meet you there, as there are no taxis waiting at the station and there are no Ubers in the entire region.

The hotel was a good size and well situated in the town. We were, however, on the third floor with no lift and I (and many others that I saw) struggled to get our cases up the spiral staircase. The room was fine, but nothing special. There was what looked like a nice patio area outside on the first floor which we didn’t get the opportunity to use. Breakfast had a varied choice, but the room had been decorated with a very modern feel which didn’t really seem to fit with the rest of the hotel. All in all an OK hotel, but nothing to get too excited about.

We arrived on a hot and humid evening and we’re grateful for AC! The staff were welcoming, the rooms were super clean and comfortable, and the property was in good repair. The breakfast room is updated and lovely, with a broad selection of breakfast foods.

Stayed for two nights with wife and teenage son, highly recommend this hotel based on our experience. Very centrally located, pleasant and warm staff, good breakfast choice and comfort. Rooms were good standard and well kept. The hotel doesn't have a bar but it does have a drink supply and you can take your drinks to the open air balcony, with a covered area adjacent which is a good way to wind down the evening.

Hotel ideally situated in centre of town, with ample public parking nearby. . The bedroom was small but clean, comfortable and well appointed. Good shower, nice toiletries. The hairdryer is on a fixed cord, and one of those annoying ‘hold in the switch’ for it to work Excellent buffet breakfast with a great choice. Staff were friendly and helpful

Just returned from visit to France and had a great couple of days staying at the Best Western Chinon. Hotel was very well maintained and the rooms were small but immaculate. Location was perfect for the center of Chinon and staff were very friendly and helpful. Only drawback was trying to find the hotel and where to park on initial arrival in Chinon, as well as, no elevator (no surprise) to rooms above ground level. Otherwise, very comfortable stay and highly recommend this property.

We had read some negative reviews about this hotel but thought we would give it a go and were pleasantly surprised. You are right in the centre of Chinon so parking is a problem but we were lucky and got a space in the car park below the castle and were also able to park for free overnight. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was also very good with a good choice on offer.

Rather disappointing overall given its central location near the river and impressive visage. You would expect the Best Western brand to stand apart from the other well-known mid-range hotels, but this one doesn't. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly, but the room was incredibly small: the more expensive junior suite is more the size you would expect for a Best Western. Ours overlooked the square and had a small Rome-and-Juliet balcony, but was quiet none the less. Parking was a disappointment. You could either pay to stay in the adjacent municipal car part or park above the town in free car parks which are ideally located for visiting the castle, descending to the car park via a free lift. There are free parking bays alongside the river but these are often taken. There is no dining but there is a superb restaurant next door. Rather expensive for what you get. We found hotels in the town that were better value,
