Hotels near Ancien hôpital Saint-Jean (XIIe siècle), Angers

This IBIS has a good location, close to the cathedral and centre, near the river. Parking is available at private multi-storey carpark nearby and other carparks. The downstairs of the hotel is modern with good decoration. The hotel corridors are dated. The room is basic, painted anaglypta wallpaper, and the tan paint is a poor choice of colour. Only an overnight stop but would not return.

What a lovely hotel in a lovely city. Although it has Centre Gare in its name the hotel is some way from the station, about a 10-15 minute walk. It is on the Tramway which stops right outside the hotel. What makes this hotel special is the young staff, they work as team from reception to the housekeepers nothing is too much trouble. Loredana on reception epitomised all that is good about the hotel. Helpful, efficient with much bonhomie. The breakfast room was kept up-to-date and there was a wide range of choice to suit all needs. The room was modest but kept impeccably clean by friendly housekeepers. The very minor negative was the toilet tissue and not toilet roll, as all travellers know this can be an issue. The Manager of this hotel should take great credit and pride in the team he/she has built. It was the the polar opposite of the Nantes hotel reviewed later.

We stayed in the apartment at Foch 21 to attend a nearby wedding & from first booking to departure it was a perfect experience. Easy to book, easy arrangements with Thomas the hotel owner and a perfectly appointed, stylish appointment to use. Ideally located in the centre of Angers, we walked to and from the station (following an easy TGV ride from Paris). Angers itself is a really super town with history, culture & shopping to suit. Easy transport round town with a tram system but easy walking too. Would highly recommend the apartment for a couple or family - would work for two couples who know each other well, but more a family apartment than a two bed to share. Great value as it also allows you to self cater or eat in the hotel or out in the town.

Small hotel located across the street from the train station. There is a large parking garage next to the station for your car and you can unload your car directly in front of the hotel before parking it if you pull partially up on the sidewalk. The location is good- only a 10 minute walk to reach the historical areas. The reception area is small as is the breakfast room. The hotel has a lift but only 2 of the seven rooms on the first floor are directly across from it. The other 5 rooms (like ours) were accessible only by the stairs although the reception staff were helpful in carrying luggage. The room was very small but clean. There is only a small rod available to hang clothes. Bedside “stands” were a 4x6 inch shelf. There was a power outlet only under one of them. There was a very small desk with 2 outlets- if you unplug the coffee maker. However the light over the desk was by far the brightest we had on our trip and greatly appreciated. The bathroom was also minuscule but had adequate storage space around the sink and a small shelf for toiletries. The shower was powerful but cruise ship sized. They supplied shower gel from a wall mounted dispenser. Surprisingly they provided a box of facial tissue- none of the 4 star hotels we had stayed in prior to this had tissues. Getting to the toilet took a bit of contortions but it worked well. The breakfast was pretty basic- a choice of breads and pastries, two cheeses and some meats, yogurt, fruit, two cereals. They had a hot water bath if you wanted to boil eggs. Coffee was just a pot of American style coffee - no French coffees were offered. The staff was friendly and helpful. This simply is basic no frills accommodations- good for a one night stopover but too small to tolerate for longer stays.

Overall the property was fine, staff friendly and the location was good. One inexcusable thing was there was no hot water on my first morning there. This meant I was forced to take a freezing cold shower and as a result I also missed my breakfast- or I would have been late for a meeting. Not a good first impression and not something I would be prepared to risk in future. For this reason I won’t risk staying at the Odalys again.

Due to our motorhome breaking down, this was the hotel our insurance company put us in. Stayed 3 nights. Room was small but comfortable. Good pillows and bed was comfy. The staff were so lovely, a couple spoken a bit of English. Breakfast was continental and 9€ each. Great coffee and love fresh breads. The orange juice machine great. Weather was lovely so had breakfast on the terrace. This hotel is in a trading estate. We had no transport so we're only able to walk. There is a Decathlon in about half a mile. Also in other direction there is a U-Save store, also about half a mile away. So spent a lot of time in room watching Bastille day celebrations. A nice hotel with great staff, who went over an above to make our enforced stay pleasant.

This hotel is more of a conference centre. The pool is very nice ( indoor ) Nice gardens & quiet but strange characterless building that housed the bedrooms alongside the lovely old traditional buildings . The rooms are not air conditioned only the foyer area. We could not sleep well as the room/ bedding were warm & we didn’t want to open the sliding door due to mosquitoes ( behind is a wooded area) . There are no windows other than this door . It felt quite claustrophobic. More of a one night stay place . Breakfast was good but expensive ( €15 each & no hot food except boiled eggs. Restaurant was probably very nice but didn’t open until 7:30 PM so a bit late for us & didn’t use . It is clean & bed large . Kettle in room & small fridge. Staff were friendly. Unfortunately our 3 night stay was spoilt by a dog barking in the room next door which had been left whilst the owner went out each night. The hotel refunded a breakfast for the inconvenience but we will look for hotels that don’t accommodate dogs in future.
