Reviews of Logis Demeure de la Vignole 3 stars

Staff was really nice / original swimming pool

Location. Surprisingly quiet, even on the weekend. Comfortable bed.

I read reviews about the small rooms but I was still surprised just how small it was.

Unusual hotel with some of the rooms and the small pool being troglodyte. Our room was spacious and comfortable and had a terrace overlooking the garden. Good quality produce for breakfast.

Our room and the dining room were very clean but the outside terrace where we chose to have breakfast not so much.

Very unusual location amongst caves . Interesting swimming pool inside a cave . An evening meal was available in the form of potted food. Surprisingly palatable and very nicely served on a pleasant terrace

The decor was slightly tired in places but this didn’t spoil our stay.

Unique

If we return we will hire a car as transport not great. But the owner kindly picked us from main town as there were no taxis

Average breakfast. Good location. Bed very comfortable and room spacious.

Room smelt musty on entry. Bathroom was tired with bath tiles desperately in need of re grouting.

Unique place to stay. Loved the pool and we enjoyed a cave room

The wifi wasn’t great which was fine for our stay but may be difficult for others.

We didn’t get a cave room but the one we had was lovely. We swam in the cave pool which was a great experience. It was a shame that due to recent rain that the entrance was closed and we had to shimmy along the edge to get in. We had dinner on the terrace ‘dinner in a bowl’ with a bottle of local bubbly it was lovely

We felt that the local areas could have been a bit cleaner, but what do you expect from a cave hotel?

The property was Unique being in a cave.

The room I stayed in looked very tiered and over due a refit. No ajr conditioning and no fans for the room ( we asked ) the room was uncomfortable warm.

It was a unique property, very French. Guaume was an excellent host, always available and nothing was too much trouble. The swimming pool built into the cave was a truly different experience! The breakfast was excellent. I loved Guaume’s home made bread.

Noting

Most unusual place sleeping in a cave was an experience and eating a delicious evening meal out of Jars was amazing and well thought out as no restaurant nearby to be able to walk to. Location perfect as just off a road into Saumur where there is everything you need from restaurants to supermarkets and the beautiful Loire River. 💕

The outside area for breakfast, dinner and drinks is unfortunately plagued by wasps there are many nests in the grassed area just below the patio where we sat. They also plague the inside during breakfast feasting on the jams and fruits. This could easily be sorted by getting rid of the nests. The outside is a beautiful area and the wasps just spoilt relaxing there. We would despite the wasps recommend staying here for a whole new experience💕

Wonderful warm and friendly welcome from Marianne who was charming and helpful throughout our visit. The hotel is quirky with a certain charm and was an ideal location for us. The “cave pool” was a great feature.

Wi-fi was poor and limited

I loved the option of staying in a cave. There’s a lovely outdoor seating area & excellent breakfast. Its location was great for buying gifts & for bars.

I selected a room with a pool view which was stretching the truth. You could glimpse the pool if you tried. There was a dirty ashtray outside our room on arrival.

Unique.

Very quirky, unusual hotel with a swimming pool in a cave! Large bedroom - we didn't choose a cave bedroom but our room was large and comfortable. Great buffet breakfast. The manager (and all staff) were great - so helpful and friendly and seemed to work all hours. His English was so good too, nothing was too much trouble - and he has the cutest dog! Brilliant location to visit the Loire area and lots of vineyards around - we had a wine tasting session which was great.

The pool itself was awesome but could do with a clean/sweep and more chairs available in that area to leave your towel, dressing gown etc (there was only 1). No food available onsite, only pre-prepared jars of food which didn't really appeal to us. Lovely drinks though to enjoy on the pretty patio area!

The staff was friendly and helpful.

The plumbing in the bathroom was noisy and the bathroom needed a refresh. There were no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. There was no WiFi in the room.

A spectacular experience. Great host.

Excellent breakfast, great location. Thoroughly enjoyable stay. Swimming pool a bonus.
