These TA reviews are so helpful for planning! Staying in nice hotels during short holidays is so important and this hotel is just what we hoped for. We were very happy with our stay. The owners were cheerful and enthusiastic. Their building is ancient has loads of character. The common rooms and bedrooms are clean and comfortable. We felt very... more

My husband and I traveled for a month through France this past summer, and I have to say that Le Blason was one of our favorite places to stay. Le Blason is a charming little half-timbered building located in central Amboise (walking distance to everything you need to see in the town...including the market). The owners were very friendly and... more

Of all the places we stayed at in France, this little hotel was probably our favorite. From the moment we entered the door, we felt a welcoming environment, more like that of a B & B, with one of the owners, Agnes, checking us in at the desk and pointing out the computer that was available for guests to use... more

My husband and I wanted to see the Loire Valley and chose Amboise as a base... I looked online for hotels and discovered that this hotel had air-conditioned rooms on the second floor! The price was right too. The room was clean and the front desk staff was very polite and helpful. The only rip off was the breakfast in... more

What a wonderful place to stay! Thomas and Oliver took the time to answer our many questions on the region.

Nice little hotel. Very good value for money. The bathroom was pretty small though. The hotel offers wi-fi however we had difficulty getting a signal in our room - not a problem accessing it downstairs. They had a parking lot that was secure for the night however it opens at 8am in the morning so you couldn't use it if... more

Initially I was not expecting much because of the low price, but forced to book because my "first" choice was not availiable. I was VERY impressed with this little hotel. The owners are overqualified, wonderful people whose enthusiasm made you want to stay longer. The place is very clean and odor free, and nicely decorated. The only drawback is that... more

We had a family room with a double and 2 twins. The bathroom is VERY small, but everything else was very nice. There is no lift/elevator. Brand new flat screen tv. Free internet and chess in the lobby. Filling but a bit pricey breakfast (5 euro) optional - fresh made breads, croissant, coffee/cocoa, plain yogurt (not a hit with the... more
