Overall Ratings & Reviews Hôtel du Théâtre

Great location. Ancient building but updated decor which is lovely. I included the breakfast option which is similar to those i have had in Germany with sliced meats, cheeses, fruit variety, juices along with sliced baguettes small croissants, jam and butter. Small hotel with friendly proprietor. The only advisory is that you must go up one flight of stairs to the hotel without an elevator

a beautiful boutique hotel opposite the Grand Theatre - just perfect!! The room was delightful, excellent comfy bed and well appointed bathroom. Breakfast each morning was superb. The host was charming and so helpful. I would love to stay there again.

If you are traveling through the middle of France it would be a mistake to skip Tours. And your stay at this lovely old fashioned hotel is a must.

Owner is very kind and friendly

Very nice staff, clean and great breakfast. In a great area. Room is incredibly small but just there to sleep so it was fine.

Old historic hotel with a lot of character. I suspect it looks very similar to 200 years ago, but bathrooms are not so old. It was all fine. Bike storage in a nearby private garage that the hotel owns. 5 eu a day. Owner took me there so it was easy. A left prescription glasses in the room and the owner contacted me and mailed them to me. For that I am so grateful. Caring man. He speaks fluent English. Floor creak a bit but that’s because it’s an original building with character. Obviously narrow old historic buildings don’t have lifts. Area was good. 10 mins walk from station and nice restaurants and cafes nearby. Wasn’t as crazily busy as the old city (a plus) but close enough to easily walk there.

The Hotel suite me excellently. It was simple, quiet, clean and a great location in the old town. The Hotel is only 8 minutes from the main railway station of Gare de Tours. I had a very nice stay of three nights. Tours is the perfect city from which to visit some of the chateaux of the Loire by train. I had three days out from Tours: Chenonceaux Chinon and Amboise.

Monseur Francois and his daughter Camille - very nice people. Welcoming and warm. Francois gives you all kind of information about this cozy historical hotel, about the neighborhood, the history, the places, etc. We are very happy we stayed at Hotel du Theatre.- Carlos & Nadiya

Fantastic owner and staff

Broken aircon on the hottest days of the year. Lack of basic amenities in the room and get charged 5 euros to borrow a kettle. Cleaners that ignore the do not disturb sign and come in when I am half dressed or on calls and don’t leave straight away. And the rest…

Loved being in a historic building and the location was excellent. Walkable from train station and to everything you need. No elevator if that matters to you. I needed the stairs to work off the croissants!

Close to everything, lots of character, friendly staff, comfortable beds. Tub only. Very clean, we enjoyed our stay. Bike storage available €5 per bike, across the street from the hotel in a locked garage.

The history and the age of the building were very interesting. Honore Balzac studied in the building as a child. Francois was very convivial. Would stay here again Location is excellent! So close to the restaurants and waterfront.

Location was great for being walkable to all sites and restaurants in Old Town Tours. The downside was attributed to the typical French parking problems. The owner, Francois was a charming gentleman.

A lovely small hotel in an old timbered building in the heart of old town Tours. Comfortable bed, clean, good shower. Breakfast was very good and service was friendly. Ideally located for sightseeing. We had dinner in a great vegan restaurant called Tahina.

Great location, close to the shopping street, not far from the station

This small hotel is in a very convenient location , close to the cathedral. It's an historic building where Balzac the writer once stayed . As such, there are narrow stairs to negotiate in this wonderful premises but we managed despite our advanced years. We travel light. During daytime hours anyway someone is on hand to assist. the staff were amazing and helpful in every regard. The walk from the station is flat and doable with a small case and took us between fifteen and twenty minutes. there is a super patisseries nearby and lovely little park to chill out in. during the recent heat wave the hotel had portable air conditioners on hand for guestrooms. Linen and bed comfort were top notch. the value for money is amazing.

The lady at the front desk was awesome -she gave us great advice and information while staying a week in Tours and visiting the Loire Valley Châteaus. The room was small but we were rarely there and had everything needed! It’s Downtown Tours and easily walkable to the train station and old town. Plenty of restaurants nearby - would definitely stay again !

I am very glad to choose this hotel for staying in Tours, the location is great, walking distance to all the tourism's places. Room is clean , staff speaks fluently English which is so helpful.

Excellent value for money. Everything we hoped for 👍👍
