Château Des Ormeaux  

Well located, charming buildings. Host was fantastic - very obliging and helpful. Great breakfast. Wonderful value.

Completely fulfilled our expectations of staying overnight in a chateaux in the Loire River valley; great ambiance; captured the character of the historical countryside elegance; wonderful and friendly reception; beautiful, charming, comfortable facilities; outstanding breakfast; great recommendations for restaurants and day trips. Best part of our 10 day holiday in France, Belgium, Holland.

Had trouble locating the Chateaux using GPS...accurate location not provided on the registration confirmation...this was frustrating and challening for first time auto rental drivers in French countryside.

We splurged and got the big room for our one night's stay and it was lovely. The heating worked really well, the chateau itself is beautiful and the modern bathroom was great.

The man who greeted us was nice enough but compared to other places we've stayed at he didn't measure up. The shower leaked - not a problem for us to shower though more for them really. The breakfast was good, didn't enjoy being at one big table with everyone else though. Prefer individual tables myself. For the price I would've expected a bit more on offer at the table. Overall we enjoyed our stay but it's probably not something I'd do again compared to other cheaper places that go out of their way to help you and provide much greater range at breakfast. Ifyourelooking for the experience of staying in a chateau then this one is good enough.

Nice clean room, great view of the forest, friendly guests and a delicious breakfast.

The floors creak.

Location and decor were outstanding. The continental breakfast in the charming dining room was superb. Management was friendly and helpful.

Besides the special feeling of living in a chateau with its history and centuries-old but lavish furnishings, etc it was extra interesting because of its trogolodytic architecture.

Although the continental breakfast was excellent it would have been good to have dinner in the lavish surroundings but we had to drive 15 minutes to the nearest restaurant.

Cozy small chatoux converted to hotel with excellent design and very welcome staff.

Very friendly, execelent service, wonderful architecture

Extremely friendly staff, very homy feeling with a shared breakfast with the other guests, very authentic but at the same time clean and modern rooms in this beautiful castle

This is a charming property that has been been thoughtfully brought to modern standards. We enjoyed our stay and wish we could have spent more than a rather hurried overnight.

An old property like this takes lots of loving care and can, no doubt be overwhelming to maintain. It seemed like more attention to the grounds would have made the chateau even more lovely.

I chose the chateau because my wife and I were honeymooning and I wanted at least 1 or 2 nights in something resembling a castle. Chateau des Ormeaux met or exceeded all my expectations and we both had a fabulous stay there in the Couperin Room. The staff were chrming but unobtrusive, the chateaux was amazing and the breakfast was the best we had in our 3 weeks in Europe. We also met some lovely people also staying there and the stay was probably the highlight of our trip.

Nothing really comes to mind. We did have some difficulties even with our GPS finding the chateau so maybe a map with directions into Amboise could help, but then again getting lost is part of the fun of a European trip

Lovely chateau: Owners very attentive and helpful

Would love to be able to have dinner here but as it is a B&B not an option

Lovely welcome and very helpful host Emmanuel. Beautifully restored chateaux with very interesting history. Relaxing surroundings and easy base for Loire valley.
