Hotel Reviews Hotel de l'Univers
Mature couple
USA, Sep 2009
Room rather small and bathroom not well laid out. Nice and quiet though, despite central location in Tours.

A very elegant hotel with an excellent breakfast and attentive and competent staff all of whom spoke very good English. The room was spacious and comfortable with quality furnishings and linen. the exchange rate of Euro/£ made it quite expensive but nevertheless it was a pleasure to stay at the hotel and we wouldrecommend it to others.

Very hot, no cooling in the rooms. No drinks making facilities - but you can grab a bottle of water from the fridge (sorry, mini-bar!) for an extortionate 5 euros.

Well locaded, 5 min walk from rail station, close to the city hall and the center. Large, quiet room, a little bit oldstiled but lovable. Tours is a small, nice city: great for a romantic weekend.

Fantastic customer service. Staff fluent in English and extremely helpful at all times. My 84 year old mother was treated like a Queen and she was very comfortable. The venue is so good that we booked in and spent another night on our way home. Tip for others, we discovered that the rates available thru Venere were much better than those offered directly by the Hotel.

situated right in the centre of the city - ideal for shopping and visiting the sites. Good access to private garage. Large, well-equipped room at a reasonable price. Well-trained, helpful and agreeable staff. We can thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Very old and dark rooms. Very poor buffet breakfast. Excellent location and very kind and proffessional staff.

The hotel is ideally situated. Car park helpful. Dinner was excellent.No food available on Sunday night ( except room service ). Breakfast ( not taken ) seemed expensive. Bar cosy but heavily contaminated with cigarette/cigar smell. Staff friendly and attentive. One big hall/sitting area that was "splendid" but was like sitting in a barn.

Cosy and elegant, La Touraine lounge bar is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a drink with friends.
