Day-trippers who want to stay overnight, train travellers and anyone on a budget are the natural fit. Guests describe the location as central and quiet, within walking distance of both the cathedral and the train station.

Skip it if you want a restaurant, spa or gym on site, none of which appear in our data. Travellers who care about breakfast should also read the comments below.
Location and getting around
The address is 6 et 8, Avenue Jehan-De-Beauce, in what the booking data calls the top-rated area of Chartres.
Chartres Cathedral is about 0.4 km away, roughly 5 minutes on foot. Guests also say the train station is within walking distance, though our data does not give an exact time.
The walking time is a straight-line estimate and has not been verified. For a visit centred on the cathedral and old town, you should not need transport.
What guests say
The location wins the most praise: central, yet quiet, with the cathedral and station close by.
Parking is the other plus. Guests mention secure, private spaces on site, underground or in a courtyard. Parking is not in the property's own facility list, so check availability and price before you arrive.
Breakfast is the main weak spot. The buffet is described as varied, but some guests note a lack of fresh fruit or hot options.
