Spent a couple of nights at this hotel situated in the shadow of the Chateau at Amboise. Wonderful location by the river and three minutes from the high street and chateau. Hotel is beautiful, we had a deluxe room (not sure it was called that but one up from the basic) and it was excellent, rather like a more modern... more

We just returned from a honeymoon in France and our stay at Hotel Le Manoir les Minimes was the highlight of our time there. It is unbelievably beautiful and romantic. The service was unparalleled with the staff meeting our every need and making fantastic restaurant recommendations. We can't wait to return to this hotel, it was the greatest ever! more

We had the best experience with its great location and views for our friend's 60th birthday celebration, and the staff were very attentive - especially Pierre - but all his colleagues too. Cleanliness of rooms could not be faulted. Fond memories of our stay and many wines on the terrace! Olga, the dog, features in our photos too! Chris Armour... more

I can only add my praise for this hotel to those of the other reviews. We stayed for three nights and the hotel met all our expectations. We were upstairs in the Pavilion which comprised a large room with a very, very comfortable king size bed, a sofa and coffee table, two chairs and small writing/dining table and a TV.... more

The hotel has plentiful and secure parking, a walled garden and is a 5 min stroll to the town centre where there is a choice of... more

Wow! What a fabulous place to stay. Cannot say enough good things about this fine establishment. We stayed in the Pavilion, upstairs. The bathroom was gorgeous. Breakfast in the manoir was elegant and sumptuous. Fantastic location near the Chateau and town. I would definitely return to this hotel. more

We stayed at this property for two nights in June 2008 and agree with other reviews, we very much enjoyed it. It is an 18th century manor house, in the shadow of the Chateau Amboise. Amboise is an excellent base for exploring the chateaux and wines of the Loire valley. The hotel is very well appointed, with an attractive and... more

We loved this hotel. Perfect and personal, private and pleasant. Pierre and Patrick were friendly, helpful, available and approachable. They both gave us suggestions for touring and dining that worked out ideally. I liked the decor and furnishings. And there was always something beautiful to look at. We had our privacy when we wanted it, yet the staff was available... more
