Hotel Orée des Châteaux

not very clean and quite basic

Not great but . Windows didn't open but the door could be kept open with a shoe jammed in it.

We just wanted somewhere to base ourselves for 3nights in the Loire while en route to the dordogne . We just needed a hotel which provided a clean, comfortable room at a good price, no frills. This is exactly what we got. The room was a good size with bathroom and separate toilet. It was cleaned daily. The staff were very polite and helpful. Breakfast at 8.50 euros was simple but plentiful: croissants, bread, cereal, fruit, yoghurt and selection of drinks. Bracieux itself was a nice village with a choice of restaurants ( particularly recommend the relais close to the hotel). Great position for seeing Loire and chateaux, chambord is just down the road.

The owner was there in the lobby and was great! The room was set-up and ready for our family of five. It was clean and roomy. Parking in on site and was easy. The town of Bracieux was small, charming and had everything we needed. I would stay here again if in the area.

Quiet location with ample parking. Room very clean with a comfortable bed. En suite shower room of a reasonable size with seperate WC. Buffet breakfast good. Overall excellent value for money.

The hotel was very close to the Chambord Chateau and other Loire Valley sites. The price could not be beat, but was reflective of the very basic accommodations. While not uncomfortable or anything, the facility was very sparsely furnished and decorations were minimal. But for a quick stop-over, it had all you might need.

Pleasantly surprised by everything! Large room, bathroom, separate toilet. Our room was motel style so had own entrance and nice view onto the hotel's grassy area and pond with outdoor seating. Welcoming owner and nice breakfast if you wanted it. Very near to the large Chambord chateau and forest which was a great visit.

1. No WFI connection in the room. 2. No Curtain around bath tube( french style?) 3. Staff can't communicated using English 4. However the room is clean and big.

Great location for visiting the various castles of the Loire Valley. but no a/c. A bit stuffy room.

Good hotel in a very peaceful place near to good restaurants and well located for visiting most important Castles in the area. The owner David is very helpful giving all necessary hints for better enjoying the area...
