Your cycling stopover on the Loire à Vélo, in the heart of Angers
After 60 or 80 kilometres along the river, you deserve more than just a bed: a proper base camp. Labellisé Loire à Vélo et Accueil Vélo, the Hôtel de Champagne welcomes cyclists throughout the season with everything that truly matters — secure indoor storage for your bike, a cool and quiet room for your legs, and a breakfast that fuels tomorrow’s ride.
Everything a cyclist needs from a stopover
- Espace vélo intérieur at ground level sécurisé (gratuit by reservation préalable, subject to availability)
- Repair kit available at reception : de quoi regonfler, resserrer et repartir serein
- Organic and local breakfast, energy-packed, served from 6:30 am on weekdays — and even earlier on request the evening before, to hit the road in the cool of the morning
- Air-conditioned, soundproofed rooms : recovery starts with a proper night’s sleep
- 24-hour reception : late arrival or early departure, we’ll be there
- Twin beds that can be joined : travelling with a friend, each gets their own 90 cm bed — or push them together for a 180 cm double
Angers, the stopover cyclists never regret
On the EuroVélo 6, Angers is much more than a dot on the map : the Maine river to cross, the castle and its Apocalypse Tapestry, the historic centre’s terraces just ten minutes on foot from the hotel — without getting back in the saddle. Our location opposite the station is also your insurance : a mechanical problem, impossible weather, a stage to skip ? TGV and regional trains (bikes accepted) are one minute away.
