This was the second time we had stayed, the first being a few years ago when we were blown away by the high standard of food on offer from the well respected chef. We arrived to a new-look aubiniere with spa and redesigned restaurant. Our room was adequate with only a shower and we could hear the people upstairs moving... More

We stayed in L'aubiniere for 5 nights and have a most wonderfull time. Our room was cool and spacious and quiet. The food is really delicious and well worth the price. You need a car to stay here for several days but there is plenty of places to go and Wine to taste, so we recommend at least a coupple... More

I doubt that many will plan a vacation around the small village of St-Ouen-Les-Vignes.Not much happens there, but it does contain a nice little hotel with an excellent restaurant, providing of course you can find L'Aubiniere as it's not immediately apparent as you drive along the main road through the village. Once you do find the hotel, you'll discover rooms... More

My husband and I had a real shock when after we had booked this Hotel online (and supposedly for a deal! It still cost more than 100Euros!) during Easter break (all the other Hotels in nearby Amboise were packed), we drive out of Amboise to find out first of all it is in the middle of nowhere....the small village it...

I have eaten at l'Aubiniere several times in recent years whilst on holiday and every time I have been pleased with the quality of the food, the service and cost. L'Aubiniere is a very good restaurant that has not failed to please and whilst it is possible to find higher standards of cuisine in this area of France, it strikes... More

We visited L'Aubiniere during a two-week bicycle trip along the Loire. We had stayed in Amboise while biking in 2010, so we decided to try Saint-Ouen-Les-Vignes this trip, mainly because of the reviews of the chef, Jacques Arrayet. Upon arriving at the hotel late afternoon, we were coldly greeted by an attractive woman I later discovered was Odile Arrayet, owner... More

I was a little disapointed by this hotel overall. We stayed here on the second night of a week tour around the Loire. At around £125 per night I was expecting something fairly good compared to the other hotels we stayed in for almost half the price. The hotel is set in a very, very small village with no amenities...

There were no amenities for hotel guests in June when we visited. Pool was still closed. No areas to sit outside as entirely reserved for restaurant. Room was large but only had one window overlooking drive way. Although a Relais du Silence, room was noisy with restaurant customers coming and going. Only a hand shower in bathroom. Water was leaking... More

This place was less than I expected after reading the reviews on this site. We stayed in the Chambre Rose which is comfortable and clean, but there's really nothing special about the room and it didn't look like the pictures on the site. And for the price we had to pay, we had at least expected that breakfast would be... More

We stayed at L'Aubiniere for 3 nights in September and had a great experience there. It is located in a small, quiet village - very convenient to the sights in the Loire Valley. The room was large, comfortable and nicely decorated. The food and service were excellent - the best of our 11 days in France. The family-owners were attentive... More
