It belonged to the Commandery of the Order of the Knights Templar. The oldest remaining parts date back from the 15th c. The main building is set over two storeys of vaulted cellars from which several underground passages allowed inhabitants to escape and find refuge, for instance in the Cathedral. Joan of Arc is said to have stayed there when she came to Tours in 1429 to have her armour made by Master Armorer Colas de Montbazon whose workshop was in the same neighbourhood, in the Rue Colbert.

After a long and tiring day of travel, arriving at Les Jardine Des Amandiers was a wonderful and pleasant surprise. Jean-Philippe was very welcoming and helpful with recommendations. The apartment had everything you could possibly need to ensure your stay was comfortable and the location very convenient. It was also a very beautiful apartment!

We loved the location and the free secure parking. There were a few negatives. One was that the website claims air conditioning and there is none. There are many sharp corners on the dining table, the coffee table and the bed. The shower results in a lot of water that you must mop up each time you shower. There are little steps up to the bed and then to the bathroom that are a concern in the middle of the night. The property manager was great but we will not return,

This apartment is a hidden gem. It is well located within the center of town, so close to the restaurant's, walking distance to the railway station, and the parking makes it the ideal location to explore the region around tours. We stayed for several nights, and it was the perfect base to return to. The design of the apartment is idyllic. Nothing better than sitting outside, enjoying the fading sun with a glass of the local wine.

Well equipped modern apartment in a 14th century building, a bit of a paradox but it works beautifully. The apartment is in a secluded courtyard with gated access and has its own allocated parking space in a nearby parking lot. The old quarter of Tours is literally just around the corner and the Loire is a two minute stroll. A perfect base for exploring Tours and its surrounding area at a very reasonable price.

The apartment was amazing - beautifully appointed, clean and well-equipped for an extended stay. Location is excellent. In the heart of the old town, half a block to the Loire River, shops and cafes. 10 minute walk to Gare de Tours as a great hub to explore the Loire Valley by train. Host was excellent; great communication from start to finish, friendly and helpful. I will definitely look to stay here again if/when I return to lovely Tours. Thank you Jean-Philippe and Marine!

Bien situé à 2 pas de la Loire et des restaurants de la rue Colbert avec 1 Carrefour Express proche,nous y avons passé 2 semaines sans gros problème.A signaler toutefois une baignoire pas trés pratique pour des septuagénaires et sa douchette qui permet d'arroser une bonne partie du sol de la sdb!Absence de miroir grossissant et lit correct sans plus.
