We had an outstanding suitte the size of a small apartment. Included entry way with large bath and separate toilet, separate bathtub and shower, double sink. The bedroom area had 2 sofas, a desk with chair, and two easy chairs. Very comfortable and unique decor. Breakfast room/brasserie is lovely, under a skylight. Breakfast buffet was excellent, with many choices of eggs, cereals, yogurt, several breads, bacon, etc.. Very comfortable bed with top quality linens and pillows. Good elevator. We didn't use the main restaurant as it was closed the days we were there (Sunday and Monday), but there are a number of restaurants in Chartres and the hotel brasserie was open.. Hotel is in a 17C mansion, so if you are expecting a generic hotel experience, this isn't it, although the room and hotel are fully modernized (including A/C, not needed during our visit. Location of hotel is optimall for visiting the cathedral and walking around the charming old city with little shops, bars restaurants.

“Wonderful hotel, staff and location ”

Wonderful hotel, amazing bar and restaurant. The suite was beautiful with a huge comfortable bed. Only slight niggle was no shower mat and very slippy. Plus parked car down side street as instructed, we're not told to use a bay only , so we were lucky the concierge moved it before it was towed.

“Excellent hotel experience!”

Beds were excellent, bathrooms were nicely appointed, roomy and very clean. Staff was very helpful and spoke good English; my French is very rusty. Th… more

We booked two rooms, one of which was junior suite for our daughter and two teenage grandchildren, and both rooms were very nice and quite roomy. Beds were excellent, bathrooms were nicely appointed, roomy and very clean. Staff was very helpful and spoke good English; my French is very rusty. The only thing that wasn't the very best was dinner in the hotel restaurant; if rating it separately I'd give it three circles, while the hotel itself definitely gets five. Parking for unloading is a little tricky if you're not aware of the "minute stop" places, two of which are shared with a Mercur hotel in the samel block. We would definitely stay here again if in Charters.
