This place suits me perfectly, with great wi-fi, friendly 24-hour reception, and a lovely bar/lounge area. I still remember how the staff helped me retrieve my forgotten earpods. I highly recommend dining basket. I'm coming back for a city break.

I had a lovely stay at Fontevraud L'Ermitage in the abbey grounds. The serene atmosphere made for a peaceful getaway. The free access to the abbey at night really sets this place apart. Exploring the beautifully restored abbey after hours felt magical. My room, a Classic Double Room, was simply furnished and had large windows that overlooked the gardens. It felt spacious and welcoming. Breakfast showcased local products and had a good selection, though some items were a bit lukewarm. Service was friendly and attentive, particularly at the reception, which was a plus. Unfortunately, the restaurant was fully booked during my visit, which was disappointing. Also, the gym facilities felt more like an afterthought. The limited equipment didn’t really cater to a proper workout. Overall, while I loved the unique experience and stunning location, the dining reservation system and gym facilities could definitely use some attention.

a magical experience with late night abbey access and friendly breakfast staff

Exceptional atmosphere, outstanding architecture.

delightful strolls through historic abbey and nearby parks

I loved wandering the quiet grounds of the abbey on a summer evening, taking in the beauty of the landscape and the sense of history that surrounded me, and I also appreciated that the hotel is just a short walk from the stunning Chateau de Montsoreau-Museum of Contemporary Art, making it a perfect base for exploring the area.

Lovely terrace picnic at sunset, but Wi-Fi barely worked.

I absolutely loved the cozy atmosphere and the beautiful views from my comfort double room, making my stay truly special. The hotel offered a peaceful garden area and relaxing sun loungers, perfect for winding down after a day of exploring. One minor hiccup was that I couldn’t secure a dinner reservation for Friday night, so be sure to book ahead if you want to dine in. 🌿

The location within the Abbey grounds offered a truly magical experience as I was able to explore the historic places during the quiet night hours. The minimalist design of my room was a joy, providing comfort and tranquility throughout my stay. I was particularly impressed by the exceptional dining at the restaurant, which featured locally sourced ingredients that made each meal memorable.

I enjoyed a peaceful stay with beautiful grounds to explore. The room was simple but very comfortable. Breakfast offered a nice buffet setup. The restaurant served really good dishes. The location is serene 🌅

The room was simple but really comfy for sleeping, which was great. It had a modern touch and was clean, but there wasn't much space to hang out. I liked how quiet it was, but it would have been nice to have more seating options. The shower leaked a bit, which was kind of annoying. Overall, just fine for a cozy night after exploring the abbey.

The night visit to the beautiful abbey is lovely. The minimalist design of our room was perfect! We also loved exploring the unique art installations around the grounds.

The location of Fontevraud L'Ermitage within the Fontevraud Abbey grounds offers a unique and tranquil setting, perfect for a peaceful work retreat. The minimalist design of the hotel harmonizes beautifully with the historic ambiance. Dining at the restaurant was exceptional, featuring fresh ingredients and expertly crafted dishes, which made our meals memorable.

I experienced issues with the WiFi connectivity and key card demagnetization.

The location is stunning, allowing access to explore historic grounds late into the night in tranquility. The breakfast is remarkable, especially the oeuf cocotte with creamy bacon sauce, highlighting a commitment to quality local ingredients. However, navigating the grounds can be challenging, especially if you're unfamiliar with the area. Additionally, relying on the IPAD for basic services can be frustrating if it malfunctions, and the lack of air conditioning made the afternoons uncomfortable without a breeze.

I had a fantastic romantic weekend at the hotel. My previous visit to fontevraud abbey was lovely, but this time the serenity and amazing surroundings exceeded my expectations. The comfortable room, and the access to the abbey grounds after hours was a magical touch.

wifi connection was unstable at times.
