AU CHARME RABELAISIEN ^{* * * *}

L'hôtel est très bien situé au centre de la ville d'Amboise. Les commerces et restaurants sont à 5 min de l'hôtel |Nous avions la chambre exécutive |Magnifique 35m2 au 2eme étage |Très propre et grande. Literie parfaite |Belle vue sur le château |Hotel cosy de 10 chambres |Possibilité de garer sa voiture en parking privé en supplément ||L'accueil est professionnel, gentil, à l'écoute ||Le petit déjeuner est très bon, produits frais, de saison, jus d'orange pressé, salade de fruits frais, œufs à la coque... |Endroit petit et cocooning.|Propre. |Petite piscine extérieure et jardin idéal à la saison d'été.

Le seul intérêt de cet établissement réside dans sa situation centrale à Amboise et la chambres plutôt spacieuse. |Pour le reste, tout est médiocre : déco datée, accueil obséquieux, chambre bruyante côté rue et mal insonorisée des chambres voisines, protège-oreillers jaunis et malodorants...|Le "charme rabelaisien" est définitivement rompu au petit-déjeuner, indigent, à base de produits de l'industrie agro-alimentaire quasi-exclusivement.|Au final, on a davantage l'impression de séjourner dans une chambre d'hôtes de niveau moyen que dans un hôtel 4*, sauf pour le tarif.|Vous trouverez facilement de bien meilleures adresses à Amboise ou dans les environs.

Super accueil de jour comme de nuit. |À notre arrivé nous avons été reçu par une charmante dame, qui nous a accompagnée jusqu’à notre chambre et orienté pour nos visites et restos.|L’hôtel est très bien situé, proche de tous les lieux de visites, de la rue piétonne avec ses boutiques, cafés et restaurants.|C’est un hôtel 4 étoiles qui mériterait largement ses 5 étoiles.|Hôtel donnant sur une rue calme, la chambre est un cocon où on s’y sent bien.|Merci aussi au gardien de nuit pour sa gentillesse.|Je conseil vivement cet hôtel si vous passez par Amboise.|Un grand MERCI !!!

We LOVED our entire experience at this hotel. The staff were warm and welcoming. The room was LOVELY, charming and clean. Great amenities. Adorable building and courtyard. We had a view of the Amboise chateau from our suite. We will be back!

Beautiful hotel and a stunning location. The room was quiet and lovely. the young woman who checked us in was very warm and helpful. We had originally booked two nights the following week. A dear friend died suddenly and we needed to change our plans, so cancelled those nights with no problem, instead staying for one night a week earlier in order to be home in time for the memorial service. When we checked in the young woman told us we had booked two rooms for tonight. Clearly my error, in my stressed out state over my friend's passing and changing of plans, and clearly we would pay for both rooms. The next morning, after a lovely start to our much needed holiday and a restful sleep, I went to the front desk to ask if it was still possible to purchase breakfast. The woman working this morning started screaming at me hysterically. It was MY fault two rooms were booked and I would need to pay for them. I agreed, and said I'm not questioning that, it was my fault and we would of course pay. She wouldn't stop screaming at me. She said another couple wanted the room and it was MY fault they didn't get it. She went on and on screaming at me for ten minutes. It was quite shocking. I went back to the room to pack and then we walked to the car park, which was locked and required a key fob from the front desk. We could't get out without it so we were in the midst of driving out and then driving around the corner to drop of fthe fob and room key and settle the bill. She came running after us, screaming, that we needed to pay first, that she thought we were going to skip out on the bill. They had my credit card info and we had made no indication we wouldn't pay. We travel a great deal, all over the world, and make every effort not to be ugly Americans. I understand cultural differences but this was over the top. A horrible and shocking start to our vacation. Also sad because we LOVED the place and would have liked to return with our family.
