Les Jardins de l'Anjou

3.0 star property
7.6 out of 10, Good, (105)
"Nice hotel/conference centre, it was quite quiet on our visit and we barely saw anyone else which was strange. My biggest complaint was that the WiFi (and hence smart tv) did not work in the room, and we were told that was just how it was. Staff were otherwise great and a nice restaurant with delicious French cuisine. Bed and linens fairly standard. "

"It was a lovely clean well maintained place. The host was nice. A few minor items, the WiFi stopped working after one day and there’s no phone signal the area. There was no hand soap provided in the bathroom, and it’s in the middle of a farming working area. Otherwise I recommend it, and believe it to be better than most accommodations around. "
