The history of the property and the chateau itself were really lovely. We liked our room and the furnishings.
The shower wasn’t usable. The location was far from town (but we knew this going in).

A very comfortable hotel. Excellent service throughout our stay. Great location to explore Amboise area. Swimming pool area extremely pleasant area to relax after a day of visiting chateaux. Be aware that restaurant is not open Sunday evening to Wednesday - I can’t comment on restaurant therefore as this coincided with visit.
All good

Excellent restaurant, friendly and attentive staff, comfortable beds, very clean. Excellent back massage down by the heated pool.
The flood lights just outside our room cannot be turned off manually. They go off automatically at 1am so at night our door and windows were full of insects attracted by the light. Therefore we could not sleep with the window open. Luckily someone came over at 11pm to show us how to put on the A/C. Other than that, our stay was lovely.
4.5 / 5.0
Attractive Chateau retaining its character. Very helpful and engaging staff. Comfortable rooms in period style. Excellent dinner in the restaurant.
While breakfast was very adequate I think for a hotel of this stature it could have been better with a bit more choice and local products. Home made yoghurt and jam for example.

2.0 / 5.0
Staff were friendly. Location is good. Bed is comfy.
Dated stuffy rooms, more shabby than chic - I understand the need to keep it in a particular traditional style, but everything felt old and worn down and needed a revamp. The rooms look like they are out of the '80s in a Fawty Towers episode. Very underwhelming but expensive breakfast (a bit of ham and cheese and a mini croissant). Inconvenient bathroom (high bath, hard to get out of). Not much sound proofing - can hear the other rooms and corridor very easily. No room service or bar options (so if you don't fancy the Michelin restaurant, you have to go into town). Patchy internet. The whole place is very overpriced. We stayed at some Relais et Chateauxs that are the same price and much better value.
5.0 / 5.0
Beautiful old chateau, great atmosphere, spacious and well maintained rooms with luxurious beds. Warm and welcoming staff, heated pool and gorgeous grounds. 3km to Amboise center (less than 5min by car) but wonderfully quite and relaxing. Highly recommend if you plan to visit Amboise.
Would be helpful to have more outlets in the room to charge phones/laptops. A shower curtain would be great as well.

He place was dirty and in bad condition. The picture on booking.com of the hotel looked very different when you got there
The older man in reception was very rude and unhelpful. He seemed to dislike British people
4.5 / 5.0
We stop here often and the property is back on great form. The welcome was very warm and the staff were very helpful, and accommodating. It felt as though some
improvements had been made over the winter (our bathroom felt newly done, for example) and it really showed.
Nothing.

Breakfast was great and the Restaurant was a wonderful dinning experience. The staff were courteous and professional.
4.0 / 5.0
Superb restaurant with excellent staff and cuisine, I loved the location cut back into the rock face. A very quiet, historic chateau with helpful staff. Breakfast was good and they accommodated our dog both in our room and in the restaurant. Lovely woodland walk along a moss covered path although plenty of mosquitoes.
The standard of cooking in the restaurant is excellent but I realised later that by ordering from the a La Carte it was more expensive than the most expensive 'Menu' which was slightly disappointing. We prefer not to eat meat but found good fish/vegetarian options although no specific vegetarian dishes.
4.0 / 5.0
The chateau is a beautiful and peaceful place to stop over, and is in a wonderful location on the banks of the Loire. The restaurant is of a very high standard with inventive and elegant cooking fully deserving its Michelin star. The wine list is focussed and has many good bottles from the region that accompany the food perfectly. The rooms are comfortable and the staff are gracious, and helpful.
Nothing, although on this occasion there seemed to be fewer staff in the hotel than previously, and one or two more people would have reduced waiting times.
