Welcome to the Rabelais!

Ideally located in the heart of Chinon, only 500 m from the fortress, our large inverted duplex welcomes you in a peaceful and typical setting, a stone's throw from the shops and the city center.

The apartment consists of:

A large, bright living room with fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, kettle, Senseo coffee machine, fridge and everything you need to cook), dining table, comfortable sofa, TV and high-speed Wi-Fi.

On the lower floor: a beautiful bedroom with king size bed (180x200), wardrobe and dresser, an en-suite shower room, as well as a separate toilet with washing machine.

An additional dressing room is available at the bottom of the stairs for extra storage.

A travel cot, an extra bed and a child's sleeping mattress are also available in the apartment. (bed linen is provided on request free of charge)

Please note: access to the bedroom, the shower room and the toilet is via a fairly narrow staircase.

On the practical side: several free parking lots are located right next to the accommodation.

The little extra: enjoy a quiet environment with a view of the Saint-Étienne church, while being in the immediate vicinity of the historic heart of Chinon.
To access the castle, there are two options: a pleasant walk or the panoramic elevator for easy access.
