Perfect. Room was very spacious, staff were very friendly and the hotel was fantastic
Room was very spacious, although noise travelled through the hotel so you could hear people talking when downstairs.
Air conditioning leaked all over the floor and was extremely noisy.
Pool and leisure area looked nice .
The hotel is a very special place, we just stayed for one night and would have loved to stayed longer. We enjoyed its beauty and confort, had a good night rest and continued our trip. The grounds are very well kept, the pool area great. Very peaceful.
This an exceptional place that we recommend very vividly. We spent a beautiful 4 days with two teenagers. The pool made them happy and it was a perfect base for visiting the Castles of the Loire, quite close to Chenonceau, Villandry, Amboise and Azay-le-Rideau among others. The staff is also very nice and accommodating, they started writing to us a few days before our arrival to make sure it went smoothly. Only great things to say about this place!
This is an amazing place to stay - beautiful grounds with flowers, trees and well-tended lawns, a wonderful pool, and clean comfortable accomodations. We rented a 2-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and dining space - it was quiet and very private, with a patio in front and back, and just steps to the pool. The whole property feels very private and luxurious but is not at all stuffy or formal. Among the very best hotels we've stayed in anywhere in the world.
We didn't swim... too cold. A large group (like a seminar) had pretty much taken over the hot tub so we didn't get a chance to use it. That was the only disappointment. The grounds are amazingly beautiful with
Such a great place to stay! The grounds are perfect, the Chateau and Suites are gorgeous, and the service is top notch. The most perfect place for families to stay while exploring the Loire region and all of the Chateaus and wineries. Our kids loved the grounds and had a great time!
This is an elegant retreat with top of the line everything. We loved the pool area and grounds especially, but the room is also wonderful. It has the distinction of being kid friendly while also being truly elegant and luxurious. We will definitely be back.
