This wonderful Chateau is well located in the Loire Valley as a base to explore the area. My family, including 15 yr old son, stayed here for a few days. The staff was amazingly helpful (Jeffrey and Corralie) and the owners were equally great. The rooms are all very nice with comfy bedding and amenities. In my opinion, this hotel is best suited for couples as there is little to do IN the hotel if raining/cold. The Chateau’s main rooms are gorgeous and being there makes you feel “royal” but the rooms aren’t a place to “lounge around”. The Breakfast was delicious and always served with a smile but our dinners were a little less friendly and we had to wait for bread and wine refills. You would expect that to be offered willingly at a place of this level. Finally, we had basically the same dinner offering the 2 nights we ate there, with different sides. These facts could be due to the month we visited but I wanted to be accurate in my review. The food is very well-presented and delicious but also an expensive meal so, as we had a car, we chose to eat at local restaurants in the surrounding towns as well.
