Hôtel**** de la Cité Royale Restaurant & Spa in Loches, open April–August.
Originally constructed in the 15th century as a royal residence within Loches' fortified medieval town, this four-star hotel occupies a building steeped in Renaissance architecture and aristocratic heritage.
The property has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its historical character while integrating modern spa and dining facilities.
Today it serves as an intimate venue where centuries-old stone walls provide an authentic backdrop for celebrations.
Stunning, comfy hotel in a perfect city-center spot with free parking, spacious rooms, great beds, and a generous breakfast; warm, attentive staff too. Spa is small/can feel crowded and dinner fell short of my expectations for 4* hotel restaurant (a few service/kitchen hiccups), though the team did try to makeup for it. If I ever pass by Loches again, I'll definitely return 😊
