A fabulous hotel. What a privilege to be able to stay in Fontevraud-l’Abbaye Abbey. The ability to walk around after the public has gone up to 12.30 at night was amazing! The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel was beautiful. Take time to go to the restaurant in the Cloisters. Such an experience . Very highly recommend

The setting is quite spectacular and the hotel rooms are stylish if a little small. Unfortunately, my husband accidentally, kicked his glasses under the bed and when we tried to retrieve them saw that cleaning under the bed is not a priority. A lot of dust etc. Otherwise the room was spotless. I had also emailed the hotel a few days before asking if we could eat in the restaurant. They only told me on arrival that it was fully booked until October. It would have been helpful to have known in advance. We took the option of a ‘picnic hamper’ which was disappointing to say the least. The breakfast was slightly underwhelming. A nice selection of items from local producers but luke warm coffee out of a thermos jug is not what I would expect from a hotel of this standard. I think they could serve a pot of coffee or tea at the table without too much trouble. The reception staff were extremely pleasant and helpful I must say.

What is not to like, eating a wonderful breakfast around a cloister after a quiet night in this Abby of great French & English historical significance, with dove and large bells easing you into your morning.

Amazing stay

My husband and I stayed at Fontevraud Abbey for a night and it was honestly the highlight of our France trip. There is a light show next week and they were practicing which was great that we got a free preview of it! Plus we hadn't realised we get to view the abbey until midnight and the next day as included in the price of our hotel stay. The bar and food service was also great. The only thing I would say is that we weren't notified that the bar closed at 10 and we did manage to thankfully get 1 drink from the front desk staff at 10.30-ish but I know several people did not know about this closing time. But overall would absolutely recommend staying at this hotel!
