Overall and excellent choice for an overnight stay
Super small boutique hotel in the centre of the village. The lady on reception was super efficient. The room was large for the family and had fans to keep us cool.

Rustic charm in beautiful village of Villandry
We had visited Villandry last year during our holiday in The Loire and decided to stay overnight on our way to The Dordogne this year. The Columbien is located in centre of village and a short walk to chateau and gardens (definitely worth a visit). Hotel is a bit like a 'rabbit warren'. Rooms are adequate but no air con only fans. We dined off the a la carte menu and food was very good. Staff attentive and very pleasant. Hotel also has a brasserie offering quicker bites. There is no parking on site but public car park opposite is free. Overall, a decent hotel, just needs a bit of an update.

Good not great
We enjoyed our stay! Site was comfortable. Staff generally helpful, but was a little weird about some requests. For example, when asked for ice to chill a bottle of wine, we were given a dog bowl with some ice. That wasn't really appreciated

great location for local tourists
great location for cycling or walking up and down the Loire or the Cher. Very close to the chateau of Villandry where you can see the fascinating ornamental vegetable gardens. We had two lovely evening meals mainly going for the specials, but the wine was quite expensive.

Lovely village hotel, Excellent Food
A charming hotel in a small village. We spent 2 nights in this hotel on our way from Spain back to England. It is just about 100m from the Chateau and Gardens of Villandry and an excellent base for visiting other Chateaux and wineries in the Loire valley. The service and food in the restaurant were excellent if not exactly cheap. I Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Lovely hotel, good location
A very comfortable and well furnished hotel. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Beautiful village, although being out of season meant it was very quiet. Ideal location for exploring the area. We got there about 9.30pm and found the hotel shut up however - it would have been good if it had been made clear we needed to let them know our arrival time as there was no function on this website to do so (more a criticism of this site than the hotel however). They were quick to arrive and let us in however as soon as I rang them. It is also worth bearing in mind that arriving at 9.30pm nothing was open even for a light snack. The wine shop and bar up the road was well worth a visit - very friendly and had an excellent selection of local wine by the glass and a good rustic menu too.

Family stay in Villandry
The Coquelicot family room is great if you are travelling with small kids, it has its own kids TV and bathroom and is spacious and well equipped. The service was professional and friendly - and happy to deal with a 5 year old and a baby. We had a very nice dinner - perhaps a little overpriced (especially the kids menu) - but there are plenty of other eating options in the vicintiy. The breakfast was the weakest element, especially the coffee - but again perfectly adequate, and it is optional, so alternative breakfast options can be explored. The hotel is conveniently located to explore the Loire between Tours and Saumur; we all enjoyed our stay and would happily go back again.

Staying at Villandry a Treat
Being able to spend a full 24 hours at Villandry was wonderful thanks to Le Colombien which is a charming hotel only a short distance from the gardens and chateau. The room was cheerful, comfortable, clean, and reasonably priced.

Hotel nice enough but terrible food
We arrived around 4 p.m. and couldn't find anyone to check us in. We had to leave our bags and go and have a drink. When we got back someone asked us our name, picked up a key and started to walk up some stairs so we followed. Right up in the attic, small room as the bathroom had been built in it. Went down for dinner. We both had what was supposed to be vegetable soup and which was a bowl of luke warm vegetable water - absolutely disgusting. My husband had chicken and you needed glasses to find it as it was so small together with cold chips. I had pizza which was awful. We wouldn't have fed the food to our dogs. I had mousse au chocolat which was the best part of the meal but again didn't have much flavour. Would definitely not return!

Le Colombien Loire Valley central
This hotel is placed in the center of Villandry close to the Chateau and Caves. The staff are friendly and speak english and a little german. It also has free wifi. The room was a little small but it was comfortable. The Restaurant Food was good although limited with a good selection of wines. Average cost €25 per head.

Goede plek voor een overnachting
Wij waren hier voor één nacht tijdens onze tocht "La Loire à vélo". Eerste indruk viel niet mee: het is een oud gebouw. Maar kamer en restaurant zijn prima. Voor wie dat wil: het kasteel en de beroemde tuin van Villandry is op een paar honderd meter.
