Hôtel Le Panoramic can host a board meeting for about ten people, a workshop for 50 or a conference, cocktail or product launch for up to 120 when its two Terres Blanches rooms are joined, with 52 rooms and suites in the same building. The four-star hotel stands on the Rempart des Augustins in Sancerre, in the Cher, and looks out over the Sancerre vineyards.
Seminars and company events
The hotel sells residential and day seminars in five air-conditioned rooms. Each comes with a flipchart, screen, projector, fiber Wi-Fi and private restrooms, and the seminar offer includes writing material, water and sweet and savory breaks. On request the team arranges Loire wine tastings, visits to vineyards and cellars, transfers for attendees and access to the pool, which gives a team something to do between sessions without leaving the area. The hotel was renovated in 2018.
Rooms and capacities
Silex, at 27 square meters, takes around ten people for training, an executive committee or a small meeting, and has a private balcony facing the vineyard. Terres Blanches côté ville, at 73 square meters, takes up to 50 people for seminars and workshops and opens onto the town center. Terres Blanches côté vallée, at 132 square meters, has a panoramic view over the vineyards and daylight, and is set up in theatre, cocktail or seated dinner; it gives direct access to an equipped kitchen and a caterer's pantry. Joined together, the two Terres Blanches rooms form a 205-square-meter space for larger events, launches and evening receptions, shown on the official site for up to 120 people. Caillotte, at 86 square meters, suits a conference, cocktail, screening or presentation.
Accommodation
The hotel has 44 rooms and 8 suites, enough to house a full residential seminar on site. Many rooms look over the vines or toward the town. A heated outdoor pool opens according to season and weather.
Catering
The official site does not describe a restaurant. Meals for events are prepared by a caterer using the kitchen and pantry next to Terres Blanches côté vallée, and the hotel can arrange a morning snack and breakfast, served as a continental buffet. The wine bar pours wines from the area and beyond, and the cellar lists more than 500 wines and spirits, a natural fit for a tasting after a working day.
History and setting
The hotel sits at the foot of the hilltop town of Sancerre, in the heart of the Sancerre wine area on the left bank of the Loire. The views over vineyards and the valley are the main draw of the rooms used for events.
Getting there
The address is 113 Rempart des Augustins, 18300 Sancerre. The team can organize transfers for attendees on request. Organisers should confirm parking and the best train connection with the hotel, as the site does not detail them.
