Great for a visit to George Sand's house at Nohant
We stayed here for a night as it is well-placed for a visit to George Sand's house at Nohant. This is a traditional French country hotel although we were allocated a room in the modern extension across the road. Good and secure parking. Friendly reception. Room was spacious with access to gardens, fixtures and fittings in bathroom perhaps in need of a slight refurbishment. Evening meal from the fixed menu was excellent and inexpensive, breakfast in the morning was equally good. Would definitely stay here again.

Budget hotel
We spent a night in the Lion d'Argent as it's conveniently located only 4 kms from George Sand's museum in Nohant. The reception was kind and efficient, they offered to book a table for us in the restaurant downstairs. The budget room was quite clean, although it smelled humid and was in need of updating. No fridge/minibar as promised, no wi-fi signal in the room. I imagine the rooms in the garden on the other side of the street are more modern and better equipped. Still, a good budget option if you just need to spend the night and don't expect too much.

Good Hotel, great staff.
Was House hunting in the area and this was a perfect base, the town has many facilities that are all close to the hotel. Great staff, very welcoming and tried hard to make our stay good. Breakfast was also much better then the average in France.

Pleasant enough for a stopover
Nice little basic hotel in a pleasant little town which is worth strolling around. Ideal for a family stopover in the garden rooms.

Comfortable overnight stay in La Châtre
Exceptionally friendly welcome from all the hotel staff we encountered. After a good meal in the restaurant, we finished our bottle of wine sitting on the terrace outside our room. The only negative point for us was the location of the hotel on a busy roundabout on the outskirts of town.

Average
Easy to find on the way into town. Welcoming reception, who knew I was coming and expected me. But tired-looking corridor leading to ground-floor bedroom, with distinct smell of cigarette smoke from one of the rooms. The bedroom was OK but had double-pane windows and no air-conditioning. I couldn't open the window because the security light outside was too bright and came on randomly. Dinner was OK and well-presented; breakfast buffet was very good.

Honteux !!!!
État déplorable de La salle de bain : fil du sèche cheveux avec 2 mm de crasse dessus , absence de mini bar , verre non emballé et pose à même le plan de travail , papier peint qui se décolle , prise murale à même le sol , étagère qui supporte de papier toilette détaché du mur et j en passe... et quand je demande à changer de chambre : il m est répondu que les autres ne sont pas Chauffées ! Photos à l Appui . Honteux pour 86.14 euros !!!!!! Faire un geste commercial ou offrir le petit déjeuner aurait été le minimum !! A fuit absolument !!!

Nous avons séjourné dans une chambre côté jardin (Tanneries) c'est très calme mais il faut traverser la route pour aller prendre le petit déjeuner. Le réfrigérateur se trouve dans le couloir et il est à partager avec les autres résidants.
