The location is perfect, right behind the cathedral. The hotel was a former monastery, and the building itself is very beautiful. I drove (rented car) there, and was able to park right in the courtyard of the Hotel, beside the main door. I will advise to those travelling by car, that there was a traffic restriction bollard (which google maps didn't show, and confused me greatly) which was in force and stopped access. I found out that you can hit the intercom button on the pillar, state you are a guest of the hotel, and the police will lower the bollard to allow access. Hope that helps for anyone in the same situation!

A beautiful and historic building next to the Cathedral . The Breakfast in the cloisters is a lovely experience in itself with good simple breakfast items which were very fresh and a lovely lady working there. The Breakfast room/ cloisters are beautiful and it is a great way to start your day. A tranquil and relaxing place. This was my third visit to this hotel. The building is beautiful, the beds very comfortable, the atmosphere is very peaceful and I hope to return.

No complaints really. Don't expect luxury and "frills" this is a place for simple comforts and a very relaxing place to be. The rooms are small which is fine by me

Hotel Saint Yves was a beautiful, historical building located right behind Chartres Cathedral, and in walking distance to many restaurants and cafes. We had a very spacious, comfortable room with an exciting view of the spires of Chartres Cathedral. The breakfast was delicious with many options, and the ancient stone walls of the breakfast room made it an interesting place to eat! The location cannot be beat; we could walk to Chartres Cathedral in two minutes.

We did not have clear, concise directions to reach Hotel Saint Yves. We had great difficulty in finding the vehicle entrance to the pedestrian area of Chartres which is where the hotel is located. A map would have been very useful.

Great location, right next to the cathedral so very central. There is a free parking at the hotel which is great for people travelling by car. The rooms were clean and very quiet. Overall great stay.

The town had lots of construction, so it was difficult to drive around. Also, the hotel is located on a hill and it's not easy to access/drive right to its parking. In order to access the hotel we had to pass through a borne, which we didn't know how to do. We had to find a different parking place and call the hotel, so I guess these instructions should have been shared in advance. The last 200 meters were slightly stressful because of this, otherwise - great place to stay.

I'm a tour guide and retreat planner, and my group of 17 women stayed here for three nights. This hotel, their service and their delicious meals was the one place during our 10-day tour that was most enjoyed by my entire group. The staff was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Every meal was perfect, and their location is the most ideal - centrally located on the main street and right near the elevator that takes you up to the sanctuary. I will most definitely be booking this place again, and highly recommend them for anyone visiting Rocamadour.

This place is right next to the cathedral. They have a movable post in the street that you go up. You use the phone to call the office and they will lower the post so you go up. They have parking but it is limited so get there early if possible. Once you are there leave the car as you can walk everywhere. Lot's of restaurants nearby. Very helpful staff and the place was perfect for my stay. The room was fine and very comfortable. The breakfast was like most with coffee and rolls and such. All in all a very nice stay in Chartres. I highly recommend this place.

You can't beat the location, 2 minutes from the cathedral. The private parking was a key draw for us. The hotel is located in the pedestrian area and you need to go through a security bollard. Be sure to read the hotel's instructions before arriving. The room had a great view of the city and country side.

Nothing that we didn't like really. This is a hostellerie, not a 5-star hotel, so accommodations are basic, but functional. It's not that we didn't like it. We did! Be prepared though for less fluffy towels, two hard wooden chairs instead of comfy ones and no coffee makers, etc. It was very comfortable though in it's own way.

Located a few steps from one of the grand cathedrals of the world. Room comfortable and very clean. Breakfast (extra charge) is to kill for. I will dream about the warm fresh croissants and madeleines for the rest of my life.

I walked from the train station with a backpack and roller suitcase and it was a slightly uphill walk, good thing it was only a few minutes' walk. And the laundry two minutes away was closed for indeterminate reasons ("France") the first time I tried to wash my clothes. But the hotel doesn't control everything, does it? Oh, and it rained one day...

The building and location are spectacular, but you need courage to reach it in a minibus like ours. If you vehicle is broad and wieldy (like ours) and you are mobile on foot (which not all of my passengers were), it could be a good idea not to park in the yard, but in the other parking spaces mentioned by the hotel. Communication with the hotel was speedy and very efficient, with a good description of the approach including a map. Excellent breakfast, bathroom was freshly renovated, bed comfortable. My group was enchanted by the building and its proximity to the cathedral and pedestrian zone. We used the hotel as a stopover on a trip to the Bretagne, and this stay will be a valued memory for all of us.

You have to keep in mind that you are sleeping in a very old building in a former monastery. For example, I (1.80 m) could not reach the window handle in my room due to the enormous diameter of the walls. Rooms are small and somehow "monasteric", but completely ok for one night. Heating system was not yet activated (4th of October), so rooms were a bit chilly, but the bed was warm, I slept fine. Wifi is not very stable on the third floor, but again: This is a very large old building with massive walls, and given the surroundings, it is an abomination to stare into a screen anyway.

Quiet location and proximity to Cathedral. Excellent staff both at reception and in the breakfast salon where the food selections were delicious! A quiet and peaceful ambiance all around. Thank you!

The instructions to access the facility by Rue de Bourg were impossible to follow. We used two GPS apps and never got to Rue de Bourg. We then called and the receptionist guided us to the facility by phone. Surely a better map and instructions could be offered.
