The Originals Boutique, Hôtel Le Londres, Saumur (Qualys-Hotel)

The hotel itself has a lovely feel to it. The rooms are beautifully decorated. The air conditioning is a must during certain times of the year. This was the case during our stay. The breakfast the following day was lovely. Everything was fresh, and there was a very relaxed feeling in the breakfast area.

This hotel had outstanding staff who were incredibly kind and helpful. We arrived on a motorbike after riding for 3 hours in heavy rain. We arrived absolutely soaked and the very kind lady in reception gave us a perfect room which was ideal to dry our sopping wet gear. She couldn't have been more helpful. The bed was wonderfully comfortable and the shower was fabulous. All the rooms are themed and we had the Queen Margeurite, very tasteful and spacious. The next day the same lady was on reception and was also supervising breakfast. We had a really beautiful breakfast with all local produce and some scrumptious scrambled eggs. She made sure everything was topped up and perfect throughout. Very impressive and showed the staff really care about their hotel. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others. We managed to get a parking space in their secure car park and they gave us it for half price seeing as we were a motorbike, that's a first!

Firstly, the hotel is excellently placed for being able to walk around the beautiful city of Saumur with the chateau and river within about 10 mins walk. Secondly, the hotel is cute, quirky, characterful, and the staff really friendly, and made us feel very welcome.

This is a wonderful hotel, in a fabulous area. It is suberbly managed. The Staff are wonderful and so helpful, a great team, they are so happy and willing to help where they can. The rooms are themed, we had the John Steed and Emma Peel room on the ground floor, which also had its own terrace. This hotel offers parking, but there are limited spaces, so our advice is to book yours early!! The breakfasts are very good, taken in a beautifully decorated atrium effect dining room. A short walk from the front door leads you into the heart of Saumur and also the river Loire. We would definitely use this hotel again if we are back in the area at some point. Thank you to everyone that made our 2 nights perfect!!

Location in the town, private parking (if booked), spotlessly clean, excellent breakfast and the staff really went out of their way to welcome and help us. The enormous bed was exceptionally comfortable and the shower room was clean, well equipped with a lovely powerful shower.
