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!

1 for 2
This is my second stay at the hotel. I had a wonderful experience previously and wanted to begin with that. After my recent business trip, I was disappointed. Our rooms had no functioning hot water in our rooms (Jardin) room the morning of our departure. This was unfortunate because I was hoping to walk the grounds before we left for our meeting. Instead, we lingered hoping to shower, and eventually left unshowered and instead had a mediocre breakfast. Overall, a major letdown. All of that considered I will try again but next time, stay in the main building. The jardin rooms are small and one of my group complained of this.

Beautiful, calm and restorative.
The whole atmosphere of the hotel is so calm and restorative. The setting, in the ancien abbey, is simply lovely. Our room was delightful. Breakfast was splendid. The staff were helpful and friendly, with the service over all, of the highest quality. It is essential to book dinner in the restaunt as soon as you can, as there are not many covers, so were not able to eat there.

Best night sleep
Best night sleep in many years for both myself and my partner! The garden room was super comfortable and clean. The place itself ia gorgeous and so calming. The receptionist was great! Only one thing to faulter, we didn't have breakfast as we thought it was way overpriced and that was the only downside really.

Beautiful, relaxing spot
I love Fontevraud. This is a special place - between the history of the abbey, the amazing restaurant, the comfortable and clean rooms, the dedication to eco-friendliness, and on and on. Our only complaint, and this might sound very American, is the lack of climate control. On a very stuffy, hot afternoon, our west-facing, top-floor room was HOT. We opened windows but were immediately faced with clouds of gnats and insects that swarmed our room. We asked for a fan, which the front desk clerk said he would bring up. He called back 10 minutes later to say "no fans because of the Covid situation". ?????? No fans in our own room because of Covid??? Ummmmmmm, Ok.... Their dedication to providing an eco-friendly spot is commendable, but a winter-weight duvet on the bed, no fans, no ventilation, no fan, crazy insects means no sleep, and no sleep means not a good visit. This was our second visit to Fontevraud, and we will definitely be back - just not in summer, and we will definitely request to NOT be on the top floor where the rooms bake in the sunlight.
