Charming location close to Amboise

It was a great find for us! Amazing spot, great people, very good breakfast options in a charming dining area. You can have your breakfast in and out-doors. We didnt take dinner at the ai erge but i bet it was delicious! Next time we are definitely asking for dinner.

Garden really pleasing but dinner wasn't

the Auberge was picturesque with plenty of room and chairs to sit around in the well kept large garden. There was some traffic noise and there is a railway line close by - but overall not a major problem. The room had two armchairs - a definite bonus! A really good breakfast.

We were however generally disappointed in the food at dinner - the menu was expensive compared to many other Logis we have stayed in - and they appeared to be aiming for making each dish as complicated as possible - (even the humble bread roll was accompanied by a beetroot butter - which really didn't look or taste at all pleasant!) My sea bream was deep pink in the middle still - also which didn't look or taste pleasant. I felt that a lot of effort had been put into 'exciting new food combinations' but a well cooked fish would have been appreciated much more.

Being a learner - I had trouble following instructions in the room getting on to their WiFi and asked for help from two of the staff - neither was able to help . Some hours later a guest kindly did. It would have been nice if another member of staff had been sent to help

Excellent French Country Inn.

This French Countty Inn was just a few 5-8 minutes drive to Amboise and centrally located to several Châteaus including the famous Château du Chenonceaux. Staff was excellent and friendly. Very nice simple breakfast.

Eat well, sleep well,

Located about 10 mins from Amboise, in the countryside. Rooms are comfortable and very clean although a bit lacking in imagination. The hotel has a large garden with a pergola for sitting out for a drink or just sit back in one of the deckchairs and read a book.
The main reason for staying here has to be the excellent restaurant and, weather permitting, you can dine outside. Very good breakfasts as well.

Ants Go Marching

We had problems with our room. It smelt very musty. We asked to have our room changed. They said since we booked through Expedia we were given a reduced rate and if they changed our room it would be an extra 17€ a night We should have probably bit the bullet, because we both ended up getting head colds. During the first few days we and our friends saw ants in our room. We thought nothing of it, but on the morning of our departure we woke up to find ants all over the desk, the chair, under our luggage and the bathroom floor Not a few, but hundreds. We reported it with photos to the staff, but they barely responded with \"oui and thank you.\" We have travelled extensively and are not complainers!!!!

The staff were friendly and attentive, the hotel itself and our room presented impeccably and the food in the restaurant, first class. We look forward to our next visit.

Hidden gem, ideal as a base for touring the region

The bedroom was very spacious with a lovely comfortable seating area for watching t.v. plus a standard reading lamp. Bedding and bed were both excellent and the hotel provided 3 pillows each (this is rare). There were many thoughtful touches in the room and bathroom such as shaving mirror, room for toiletries to be stored, plenty of hooks for bathrobes etc and good clothes hangers in the wardrobe. Plenty of storage space too. We also liked the opportunity to sit outside the room for a sundowner. We had an upstairs garden room, but there were ground floor rooms available as well for the less mobile. The garden rooms face into the back of the hotel and some of the front rooms might have traffic noise from the nearby main road. The food in the restaurant was very good, if a little pricy. Our only complaint was that the meat was served with a mere tablespoon of vegetables, more for decoration than anything and it was insufficient to accompany excellent lamb. The fantastic beef steak was served with a stick of polenta the size of a fish finger and half an asparagus. The dessert and cheeseboard were excellent. Wine list very expensive. Service was good. Overall, we would return.The hotel is a little tricky to get to, as the turn is very sharp off a busy road. Two car parks, one a bit further away from the hotel building.

First class hotel operation by professionals

The experience and professionalism of the owners is manifested in every aspect of the operation. Make sure you book a table for dinner in advance as it is an experience you wont want to miss and they are often fully booked up. A five star experience at 3 star prices and within easy reach of Amboise and other Loire Valley attractions.

Romantisch

Das Hotel ist einfach aber es gibt viel Positives: das freundliche und hilfsbereite und aufmerksame Personal.
Der sehr schöne Garten.
Das Abendessen gibt keine Wahlmöglichkeit- wer kein Fisch mag?
wir hatten noch einen extra Käsegang. Das war sehr gut, da wir vom Kellner eine excellente Beratung bekamen. Das Dessert war eher dürftig.

agréable séjour dans un cadre bien agencé. La chambre était bien équipée et sans reproches sauf...pour la wi-fi qui passait bien uniquement sur le lit! Mais c'était peut-être l'emplacement de notre chambre au RdC qui en était la cause. On recommande la cuisine savoureuse et de qualité toujours servie par un personnel souriant et à notre écoute.
