Logis Hôtel du Théâtre

Historic hotel where author Balzac once lived is literally creaking with character. Its narrow stairs lead to comfortable small rooms. Like many historic hotels there is no lift, because you can’t retrofit large fits to these historic buildings. That’s the price of not staying in a cookie cutter new character free hotel. I liked that the this little hotel has a kind owner who went to a lot of effort to contact me after I left my spare prescription glasses in the room. He happily mailed them to me. I am so grateful! Lovely man. His English is excellent too. He also walked me to a nearby private garage where he locked my bike up and kept it safe. Charge was 5 euro a day. And he took me again to retrieve it when I left. That was great. Used my time to explore chateaus nearby. Loved Chenonceau. It’s an easy 10 minute walk to the train station. And lots of nice restaurants nearby. The ancient part of the city is not far. But it had lots of people. So I was happy in the neighbourhood where Hotel de theatre was located. Felt safe.

Great location in a really charming old building. Loved it, will definitely stay here next time in Tours. The building is amazing, with beautiful ceiling beams and old stone works. The place is looked after very well, everything feels fresh and perfectly clean. And the owner is really friendly and helpful. And speaks great English which was very useful for us with our poor attempts at French 😁

Chambre exiguë, simple vitrage donnant sur une rue très passante. Les chambres sont très mal insonorisées. Ni bouilloire, ni café sauf si vous souhaitez encore payer 4,50 euros par jour, en plus des 88€ de la chambre. Accès inaccessible au personnes à mobilité réduite, clim mobile bas de gamme et pour clôturer le tout chambre en plein milieu de la salle du petit déjeuner. C'était notre unique week-end de repos depuis très longtemps, malheureusement il n'a rien eu de reposant.
