Hotels in Chambray-lès-Tours, Tours
Updated 6 July 2026 · 7 real hotels
Chambray-lès-Tours is a practical, affordable suburb located south of Tours city centre, best suited to drivers, budget travellers, and visitors attending events or trade fairs at the nearby Parc des Expositions. It offers good value accommodation and decent tram connections, though it lacks the charm and walkability of central Tours.
Chambray-lès-Tours sits on the southern edge of the Tours urban area, separated from the historic city centre by a few kilometres of suburban road. It is a largely residential and commercial commune, home to retail parks, business parks, and the Tours Sud exhibition centre. The atmosphere is functional rather than scenic, but that is precisely what makes it appealing to a specific kind of traveller: those who prioritise price, parking, and quick access to main roads such as the A10 motorway over sightseeing on foot.
Hotels here are almost exclusively chain properties, ranging from budget one-star stops to comfortable three-star options with on-site restaurants. Nightly rates run from around 37 € to 84 €, making this one of the most affordable places to stay in the Tours area. The tram line (line A) connects Chambray-lès-Tours to the historic centre in roughly 20 to 25 minutes, so staying here does not mean sacrificing access to the old town, the Loire Valley châteaux day trips, or the main train station. It is a solid base for road-trippers, commercial travellers, and anyone attending an event at the Parc des Expositions de Tours.

Frequently asked questions
How far is Chambray-lès-Tours from the centre of Tours?+
Chambray-lès-Tours is roughly 5 to 7 kilometres south of the Tours city centre. By tram (line A), the journey to the central stops such as Jean Jaurès or Vieux-Tours takes approximately 20 to 25 minutes. By car, the drive can be shorter but varies with traffic. It is not a walkable distance to the historic centre, so having a car or using public transport is recommended.
What types of hotels are available in Chambray-lès-Tours?+
The area is served almost entirely by chain hotels. Budget travellers can consider the Première Classe Tours Sud at 37 €/night or the Mister Bed at 40 €/night. For a step up in comfort, the Brit Hotel Essentiel and Kyriad Direct both sit around 60 to 63 €/night and hold solid guest ratings. The Sure Hotel by Best Western Tours Sud is the priciest option at 84 €/night and carries a strong 4.4 out of 5 rating. All properties offer private parking, which is a genuine advantage over central Tours hotels.
Is Chambray-lès-Tours a good base for visiting Loire Valley châteaux?+
It can work as a base, particularly if you are travelling by car. The A10 motorway is easily accessible from Chambray-lès-Tours, giving you a quick route toward Amboise, Blois, or Chenonceau. However, if you plan to use guided tours or trains departing from Tours Saint-Pierre-des-Corps station, you will need to factor in the extra travel time from the suburb. Staying centrally in Tours is more convenient for château day trips without a car.
Is Chambray-lès-Tours safe and quiet for an overnight stay?+
Chambray-lès-Tours is a calm, suburban commune with no particular safety concerns. The areas around the chain hotels are commercial and fairly quiet in the evenings, as they are surrounded by business parks and retail zones rather than nightlife. This makes it a restful place to sleep but means there is very little to do on foot after dark. Guests looking for restaurants or evening atmosphere will generally need to travel into Tours proper or rely on hotel dining.
