Visited 05/12/2025 We were taking a wine/cheese tour from…read moreParis. Hôtel du Rempart was the designated stop for lunch My wife and I both had the rolled veal mushroom sauce with pasta, along side a salad with a terrific mushroom vinaigrette. We weren't the only ones in our group to get this meal... all of us happy and full. Oh! Make sure to get the chocolate mousse! Excellent! Seems like a busy place at lunch time. Wouldn't mind stopping in again next time I'm on a wine tour.

You cannot get a better hotel experience in the Sancerre area than this gem. The hosts Jacques and…read moreNicole mostly only speak French, which for my non-French speaking American self was difficult. But their kindness and breakfast and midday aperitif preparations made me forget any language barriers. I could not have possibly asked for a better experience in Sancerre. I went from Paris to the central Loire Valley to Sancerre, and had the best time in Sancerre due to this hotel and the wines (of course). Every morning they prepared a continental breakfast of croissants, varied pastries, bread, yogurts, jam, coffee and orange juice. I believe most things were homemade, if not then sourced locally as it was very fresh. Breakfast was served on the terrace with best ambiance, see below. Also, we had guests at breakfast: Calypso and Charly, their adorable dogs. In the afternoons/early evening, they prepare a bottle of wine and cheese for you on the terrace. Mind you, if you are like me and go for the vineyards then you will be absolutely overflowing with wine at this point. Key to pace yourselves, people. Ambiance: The most important part of this experience was the views. I mean the flowers and rolling hills were just amazing. I felt like I was honeymooning simply by looking outside my window every morning. I am deathly afraid of bees and there were quite a few there but even so, I could not help but relax with the unbelievable beauty of the surroundings. Not to mention, I sprained my ankle my first night in France but the pain was imperceptible while I was here. It was not incredibly expensive or cheap but it's worth every euro. Download a translation app, save some money and fly over to France just for this visit. Trust me. Note: they do take credit cards but their online booking is outdated.
