Lovely boutique chateau hotel. Romantic, charming rooms. Had one of our best meals ever at their restaurant. Pricey meal but worth it for a special occasion. Breakfast pricey for a continental breakfast. Excellent service and staff. Great location to visit chateaux and wine venues. Extremely comfortable beds.

Chateau de Pray is located just a few minutes drive from Amboise so is ideal for exploring the region's many chateaux. The gardens are lovely and there is a forest walk accessible from a gate at the back of the chateaux where the children discovered a swing and a field full of ponies much to their delight. The food in... More

Lovely inn 5 minutes from Amboise castle and Clos Luce (last home of Da Vinci), 10 minutes to Chenonceau. Courtyard rooms were great. Dining was excellent Loire Valley cuisine with superb local wine list. Service exceptional.

We stayed in hotels in Paris, Carcasonne, Lourdes and CDG airport. Of all of the hotels we stayed at, this gem in Amboise was by far the best of all and a perfect jumping off point for visiting chateaus all over the Loire Valley. Our son LOVED staying in a real castle and walking up the stairs to find a... More

Coming from Malaysia and planning on a Tour de France this XMas holidays for 2 weeks was not easy task. But the objective I had was to get my Malaysian friend to experiment the typical French cultural ways of living and being. Thus my choice at each step of our trip, to stay in unique places, with - if possible... More

We stayed here one night in a very comfortable room in the main chateau. Service throughout our stay was of a very high standard from a hard-working and friendly staff. The restaurant holds a michelin star so expectations were high for dinner. Initially there was a small problem with pace as the restaurant was nearly full and most of the... More

We did not stay here, we only dined here, thanks to the helpful front desk at our nearby hotel in Amboise, Le Manoir les Minimes. We wanted a gastronomic dinner of regional Loire products, and they kindly reserved here for us. The dining room in this small chateau is beautifully decorated with tapestries and paintings, and has the feel of... More

We enjoyed our 2-night stay at Chateau de Pray at the start of a 6 night cycling trip through the Loire Valley. We had a fabulous room that was quite large (especially for European standards!) and was charming in its furnishing. We felt comfortable and welcomed by the staff and especially loved the large bath that helped to ease weary... More

Experience living in a real chateau at a very reasonable price. This mid-size 750 yr old 4 star hotel/ chateau about 3 miles upriver outside of Amboise has 14 rooms in the main chateau and 4 in the Orangerie building steps away. If you have a car (and you'll need one to visit the Loire Valley chateaus of Chambord, Chenonceau,,etc)... More
