We stayed here for almost a week during our first tour of the Loire valley. The hotel seems to be in a refurbished chateau or other historical building, so it is very atmospheric. Regardless of its age, the interior is completely updated and modern, particularly the appointments in the room. The size of the room was remarkable- very spacious and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. Amboise is a relatively small town compared to nearby cities and very walk-able. Not far from the hotel is an area with numerous restaurants, and we tried a different one each night enjoying great meals at all. Parking is available just across the street for free and also provided by the hotel. Should we stay in Amboise again, we would not even consider choosing any other hotel. Highly recommended!
