房間不小,位置也算方便,畢竟整個地方也不大。老闆很熱情的老奶奶,但是有點過於一板一眼,不太靈活。總的不錯。

The rooms are gorgeous and beautifully updated. We had the windows open and it was quiet. We enjoyed wine (that we purchased from the owner) in the courtyard each evening. The lift was a nice bonus. We did not eat breakfast at the hotel but went out for pastries each day. Enjoyed the coffee in the room, as well as the refrigerator. Great on-site parking for our large vehicle. The pool looked nice but it was closed for the season.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautifully renovated 1700's era building. Close to downtown without being noisy. Restaurant recommendedations were excellent. On-site parking is available and a must if you have a car. Nice breakfast is an option. Has mini fridge, nesspesso, and kettle.

There is not one negative thing we can say about this hotel. The rooms were spacious, quaint, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The owners and staff were super nice and helpful. The views of the castle from our window were spectacular. The location was perfect-convenient to town, shops, and restaurants. We were so pleased to have spent our 6 nights in Amboise at Au Charme de Rabelaisien.

Thank you to the staff at Hotel Au Charme Rabelaisien for a perfect few days in Amboise before going to Paris. After entering the beautiful lobby area, our first moment in the hotel was drinking a glass of wine in the beautiful courtyard. This became the daily ritual before getting ready for dinner! The two staff we met were so friendly, helpful with restaurant suggestions, transportation and excursion advice and arranging, and just really nice to talk to during our stay. Our room on the top floor, with it's own staircase, was perfect - the bed was so comfortable, the room was peaceful and extremely spacious to relax with a drink. It was nice walking down the stairs and throughout the hotel as it's a beautiful space to be in decorated with art, colour and historical ambience. We loved breakfast each morning. We prefer this hotel's style of fewer but nicely laid out items of higher quality. Fruit, coffee, cheeses, jams, bread, the sweet courtyard and friendly staff - perfect start to each morning. Amboise was the highlight of our trip to France and our experience at Hotel Au Charme Rabelaisien made it exceptional.

Our room was in back by the pool so maybe the rooms in the hotel are a little better. Our room smelled terrible, like old cleaning products. We couldn’t access the wifi of the hotel in our room. The decor was old and very dated. Not worth the nightly rate at all! Steer clear!

This hotel looks very nice in the photos but in person it is not how it looks at all. In our room, which was either a prestige terrace or a prestige garden, the carpet was dirty, the shower floor had some black grout (mold) and our terrace was dirty and had mold on the door mat. Our friends room was worse, it smelled bad, the air conditioner was not working, it had no WiFi, both of the rooms were not pretty like depicted on the internet. The grounds are very unkept, lots of dead plants and in much need of a clean up. I do not understand how this property has such a high rating. The staff is rude and offers very little help in fixing anything. Read the negative reviews and believe them. We paid a lot for these rooms and they were absolutely not worth it. Also look at the hotel managers replies to all the negative reviews. She is very defensive and blames everything on the reviewer. She says she’s not surprised at all by your review and then points out all their positive reviews. She will do it with this one too I’m sure. They take no responsibility at all for any short comings. A good business will apologize for any problems, invite you to come back and hopefully try to fix the issues. I would absolutely not recommend staying here.
