Romantic Hotels in Sancerre

The Panoramic is a fine modern hotel perched impressively on a cliff looking out on the rolling vineyards of Sancerre. It is worth noting that the rooms with a street view are half the price of the rooms overlooking the vines. The "view" is available from the long public balcony on that side of the hotel where wine can be enjoyed and satisfactory photograph made. We liked the street side as we could keep an eye on our car parked below. There is no secure parking but, at least in October, there were plenty of spaces where parking was perpendicular the the high wall of the hospital grounds. It is a ten minute walk to the top of the hill where there seems to be ample public parking. If you chose Google Maps street view (https://www.google.com/maps/@47.3334938,2.8378884,3a,75y,156.22h,75.22t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1stOuuGjHcCStnu9MWPcBwEg!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3DtOuuGjHcCStnu9MWPcBwEg%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D162.3147%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i16384!8i8192) the setup clearly shows the hotel opposite the parking. There is much of interest in restaurants, wine bars, and antique selling at the top of the hill. The attached photos show the Google maps view and the parking across the street. After tasting several pedigrees of the real Sancerre in that balcony, we tried a Pouilly-Fumé which is apparently a generally less tart wine, though still made from the Sauvignon Blanc grape. It was, but ultimately we ended up buying a few bottles of Pouilly-sur-Loire (a separate appellation) in the nearby town of Pouilly-Fumé to take home. This white wine is made from the Chasselas grape and is much less acidic. The curious obsession with the Sauvignon Blanc grape is, one might say thankfully, partially displaced by less acid fruit in the more westerly appellations of the Loire Valley

Beautiful home and room. Very comfortable and cozy. Breakfast was absolutely perfect. A large selection of local foods (not listed as I’m sure they change with the seasons) and any morning beverage you could wish for. Friendly and attentive hosts.

The town/village is beautiful, as is the whole region. The staff were very friendly and pleasant. The room was large and well equipped. A very positive experience.

Very welcoming host, great room, convenient location and Great restaurant opposite Good location to explore Sancerre
