Quirky hotel, very friendly staff, lovely shaded courtyard, but smallish room. Good, but not exceptional breakfast. On site parking

A charming old house with a lovely garden patio right outside my door. It’s a short work to the Vienne river. The room is nice. Bath only, no shower.

We have stayed at the Diderot a number of times over the years. Mainly as a stop over enroute. It is very well located in the middle of Chinon and there is limited parking next to the hotel. The breakfast is just right with fresh bread and their home made jams. It was all as good as ever and a very pleasant stay.

Charming hotel in Chinon
Nice location and quite charming. Very clean and service was good. We just found the bed a bit too hard for our liking. A foam topper would have been great.
