Guest Reviews
- Andrew (10/5): Loved Amboise and the hotel. Would definitely stay again. Marie took great care of us. - Tastefully furnished with a good sized room for France. Very convenient location and attentive friendly staff. Nothing
- Darlene (9/5): -
- Bruce (10/5): A charming oasis in the middle of the city! - Our room and bathroom were HUGE and well-appointed. The staff was exceptionally pleasant, engaging, and helpful. The breakfast was a very good value with a large and varied selection. The grounds and garden were lovely. On-site parking was a big plus, considering the crowded streets in Amboise. The location was close to all the major sites and many restaurants. The shower doors leaked at the bottom and make the bathroom tile very slippery. The map to the parking garage needs a bit more detail. That’s literally all can think of!
- Maria Encarnita (9/5): Great stay - Angel and staff are very nice and helpful Nothing
- Eric (10/5): -
- Eric (10/5): -

- Stéphane (8/5): -
- Éva (10/5): Perfekt - Szép szoba, tágas fürdőszoba. Nagyon kedves, segítőkész személyzet Nem volt ilyen
- Jerome (9/5): - Très bon accueil, l’hôtel est propre, la literie confortable et le petit déjeuner à la hauteur Nous avons eu la chance d’être surclassé, car il n’y avait pas grand monde un joli geste commercial, car ce n’est pas une obligation.
- ORIT (9/5): - The only upsetting thing was the paid spa The fact that you had to pay for the sauna
- Angélique (9/5): - Bienveillance du gérant
- Matthieu (10/5): Je recommande à 200%; accueil très chaleureux sans superficialité. - Parfait, Tout était parfait, accueil, literie, petit déjeuner, emplacement.
- maxime (9/5): - personnel tres arrangeant et sympathique ! chambre propre et pratique
- sebastien (10/5): Calme, confort et coconing - Chambre très spacieuse, fraiche "malgré la canicule" et incroyablement calme. La moquette très épaisse contribue à atténuer le bruit du voisinage et la climatisation en mode nuit est extrêmement silencieuse. Le dejeuner est varié avec des produits frais et de qualités, merci pour l'animation "écureuil". Un merci à Melba qui a enchanté notre fille. Un merci pour le petit cadeau de départ offert à notre fille pour une discussion d'histoire avec les propriétaires. Félicitation à tout le personnel qui à été à notre petit soin. Même le gradien de nuit, nous offre un cadeau chaque matin. Pas grand chose à dire sur ce point.
- Terrell (10/5): We had the perfect stay, look forward to returning and will highly recommend this hotel. - We were greeted every morning with the happiest "Good Morning! How was your sleep? Where would you like to sit in the garden for breakfast?" We enjoyed glorious sleep, delicious breakfasts with excellent service and were able to walk or cycle to all locations in and around Amboise. The staff was particularly accommodating when we arrived quite early before check in and made it possible for us to get to our bike rental and tour the chateaux on schedule. There was very little to not like. We became used to a less powerful fan and air conditioning but it was still quite satisfactory.
- Melanie (8/5): The hotel was clean, comfortable and very well located. Staff were friendly, warm, helpful. - Excellent location, beautiful, easy to get everywhere, but super quiet. I had thought the price included breakfast, and the breakfast that could be purchased was super expensive.
- GERALD (8/5): Excellent séjour - Emplacement exceptionnel pour découvrir la ville Accueil chaleureux Chambre très confortable avec une excellente literie Le petit déjeuner manquait de choix
- Simonne Kanat (9/5): Great location. Charming hotel. - Loved the location. Charming hotel Was all good

La chambre spacieuse et agréable, le petit déjeuner très bon, la place de parking sécurisée, l’emplacement de l’hôtel permettant de tout faire à pied. L’accueil et le conseil du personnel et des propriétaires ont été chaleureux. Rien en négatif
- MARTINE (7/5): - Mauvais rapport qualité/prix, lavabos qui s’écoulent mal, petit déjeuner très compté, 2 capsules de café pour 2 personnes, trop juste…Spa non disponible sans réservation et 40€
- Maude (10/5): -
- Gauthier (10/5): -
- Kathie (10/5): Perfect! - We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel-Spa - Au Charme Rabelaisien and Richard, his wife and Cristof were fantastic hosts, extremely friendly and so accommodating. There were 6 of us (3 couples) and they went out of their way to make sure we had all we needed and did anything to make us happy! We loved their breakfast and would highly recommend a stay here. Nothing!
- Paquita (9/5): Very pleasant - Very quiet and spacious room overlooking garden with view of the castle. Excellent bathroom with bath and separate shower.
- Pierre (9/5): -
- Barbara (7/5): - Bagno nuovo e molto spazioso Stanza angusta, ricavata da un ambiente al pian terreno, a pochi metri dalla piscina. Non eravamo stati informati di questa posizione della stanza. Il garage (a pagamento) era difficile da raggiungere.
- Andrew Olsen (10/5): - Very welcoming and friendly. Great location, walking to everything in 5 - 10 mins. Easy parking area, lovely grounds & pool, a great place to stay.

- Catherine (10/5): A gem of a hotel, perfectly located in Amboise. - This is a fantastic hotel. Perfectly located in the centre of Amboise but with the sweetest garden to sit in and a small swimming pool. The staff we very helpful and lovely. Room was very well appointed and breakfast was perfect. The staff helped us find a great restaurant. A gem.
- Suzanne (10/5): Great hotel stay in Amboise! - This is a charming and very well run hotel. Amboise is a great town for access to Loire Valley sites. Aurelia and Richard were very personable and helpful. Aurelia gave great recommendations for dining too. The room was comfortable and beautifully appointed. We loved our stay here. We liked everything. I wish we had time to use the pool.
- KeefySpellz (10/5): FANTASTIC STAY - A beautiful quaint hotel, in a stunning town. Hotel really suited our needs. Nice spacious room, swimming pool, safe car parking & a few minutes walk from all the town’s amenities. The owners are wonderful, friendly people & made us so welcome. Would thoroughly recommend & will definitely return.
- Karen (10/5): A lovely overnight stop in Amboise - This pretty and peaceful property is nicely tucked away in town just a few minutes walk from the Chateau and town's main restaurant area. Our room was spacious and well equipped with a large comfortable bed and good sized en-suite. We also had a beautiful view of the Chateau from our window. The staff were all wonderful - very helpful and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. We just wish we could have stayed longer! Nothing. All good!
- Tammy (10/5): Simply amazing - The staff went way above ! Extremely accommodating!! Christof and Silvi were both amazing!! Nothing , simply amazing
- LandR1996 (10/5): Outstanding hotel in Amboise! - We stayed here in May 2025 for four nights. We reserved a “City Side Comfort” room in this 4-star hotel. It was an impeccable hotel. Our room was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. Our room had a mini refrigerator, Nespresso machine, and a water kettle. The garden was beautiful. Our daily breakfast was excellent. The location was perfect for walking to sights in the city center. The parking garage is convenient and easy to access. The hotel staff members were professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. When one of us had an unfortunate dental emergency, the staff connected us with a local dentist who was able to help us immediately. We highly recommend this hotel.
- Ariadne (10/5): Very good - Nice room and bathroom, outdoor swimming pool /
- Jarque (5/5): Short in personnel. -
- Corrinne (10/5): Superb Hotel - This hotel is superb. It is charming and the staff are highly professional and friendly.
- Cynthia (4/5): Disappointing - Room was spacious. Needs updating. Chipped paint,, Given the cost of the room and the four star rating, I expected a much nicer property and a better experience. Garage parking was a challenge and area needed cleaning.
- Sophia (10/5): - Wonderful hotel, service and staff was great and excellent location walking distance to the Main Street and chateau Royal
- Liz (8/5): Comfortable small hotel with very easy access to town - So close to town. Very comfortable room overlooking the garden. Plenty of space . Nice garden & pool to relax in after full day. Easy parking. Pool was too cold to swim in.
- Sarah (10/5): Wonderful stay in Amboise - Great location and staff. Lovely breakfast. Large and comfortable bed.
- Julie (10/5): Fabulous boutique hotel in the heart of Amboise! - This is a lovely hotel right in the middle of town, making daily strolls and access to food and shopping very easy. The staff is super helpful. I loved our room on the top floor with a view of Chateau Amboise! The large bathroom and huge tub was an added bonus after a long day of walking. We enjoyed the local brewery, Les Arpents for an outstanding meal, but our favorite part was simply walking around the town and returning to our comfortable, cozy room. Nothing!
- Christine (10/5): Exceptional -
- susie (8/5): - We stayed in a garden room by the pool was different and lovely
- ScandinavianSwimmer (10/5): Lovely and modern rooms in a historic setting. - 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.
- Monica (9/5): Excellent very central hotel - Great location, very nice room Nothing
- Sabrina (4/5): Disappointing - Not much. Need an upgrade as its look old and not well maintained. Staff were nice but not good location , parking difficult access. I didn’t like it.
- Gabriel (9/5): Superb -
- K3824TNwilliams (10/5): Great hotel and staff - 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.
- Allison (10/5): Exceptional -
- Brian (10/5): A wonderful place to stay! - We had a wonderful stay during our visit. The hotel is in a great location within walking distance to the town center. The facilities were great including the comfort of the room, bed and bathroom and it’s extremely quiet. Warm towels, coffee in the room, tub and shower, great bed and linens. The grounds are lovely, with lots of room to sit and relax, including the pool! The couple that owns and runs the hotel along with staff were helpful, engaging and just lovely. If I ever have the opportunity to return to the region, this will always be my hotel of choice.
- Inspire63146 (10/5): Doesn’t get much better than this! - 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.

- Jose (10/5): Exceptional -
- Timothee (10/5): Exceptional -
- JAMES (10/5): - Wonderful hotel and friendly helpful staff. We loved it.
- Ronald (10/5): A good time enjoyed by all. - I enjoyed an ample breakfast. We had a room facing the street and we did not notice the street activity. There were several excellent restaurants within a short walking distance. We were there for three nights and once we parked the car, we did not use it until we left Amboise. Everything in town is in easy walking distance--even for us older folks. The elevator was appreciated. I would have like a more firm mattress.

- Timothy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deborah (10/5): Lovely hotel with fab rooms - Traditional old French property. Lovely gardens for a glass of wine. Our room was lovely on the ground floor with a very private seating area. Newly refurbished, fresh and smart. On a personal level it would have been better to be near the town. But it didn’t matter too much
- Eddy (9/5): Fantastic - De service This hotel should have 5 stars I travelled whole my live for business so i have some experience
- Allan (10/5): The best in Amboise ; peaceful and perfect. - Everything!! Fabulous location, outstanding staff especially Elea. Room 8 is exceptional with views of the Chateau that changes with every hour/weather condition. Secure parking was great! Nothing!
- cynthiasY7081DI (2/5): Beautiful hotel, dreadful customer relations - 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.
- Jon (10/5): It was truly awesome! - The location and staff were fantastic! We loved the pool although wish it opened earlier for an exercise option. We loved our room! It was a perfect get away! The only thing that disappointed us was not being able to use the courtyard with our own beverages and snacks.
- Ian (8/5): - Great if you want to be away from the tourist crowds but close enough to be convenient for everything
- Richard (3/5): Fine but really far too expensive for the facilities - Overpriced accommodation - twice the price of similar hotels in the area. Very random decor.
