샤토 드 라 로젤

샬레는 아름답고, 푸른 나무로 둘러싸여 있고, 객실은 깨끗하고 전반적으로 좋은 호텔입니다. 인사와 고객 서비스가 매우 나쁘다는 점을 말해야 합니다. "성의 여인"은 손님에게 매우 무례하고 불만족스러워하며, 직원들은 전혀 친절하지 않고 어떤 종류의 요청도 기꺼이 들어주지 않습니다(저희는 저녁 식사로 야채 한 접시를 드릴 수 있는지 물었지만, 아니요, 메뉴 외의 것은 아무것도 드릴 수 없다고 대답했습니다). 분위기는 대학과 같고, 규칙이 엄격하며, 아무도 방황하지 않습니다. 직원들에게 매너와 고객에 대한 관심을 개선할 것을 권고합니다. 이런 대우로는 호텔에 4점을 주고 싶지 않지만 2점을 주고 싶습니다.

샤또도 좋고 위치도 좋지만 서비스와 대접은 정말 나빴습니다. 호텔 매니저/소유자가 준 환대는 더 나빴습니다. 그들은 우리 방을 청소하는 것을 거부했고 깨끗한 타월을 주는 것도 거부했습니다. 메뉴에 채식 옵션이 없었고 채식주의자인 우리 자매를 위해 야채 접시를 만들어 주는 것도 거부했습니다. 누구에게도 추천하지 않습니다.

This is not a 4 star hotel. Narrow steps to the room made it impossible to get our suitcase up. Restaurant and bar were closed. Breakfast was priced at 17€ so you expected real coffee, but no: it came out of a machine, that you operated yourself.

On a positive note, the location is excellent to visit the Loire valley and its castles, a short drive from Blois, in the middle of a quiet park. The rooms, while reasonably comfortable, have nothing extraordinary or castle-like. There's a small kettle and a couple of tiny cups, no water, no mini-bar. The bathroom has just the minimum of toiletries: a tiny soap, shower gel and shampoo. No shower cap, cotton buds, body lotion, bathrobe, or slippers. It certainly does not reach the level I'm used to find in a 4-star hotel room. Breakfast is not up to a 4-star hotel. Tables covered in plastic (ugh…), with a croissant per guest on each table (hygienic?). No fresh juices, only one choice of eggs in a “boil-your-own-egg” appliance, ordinary bread. Service was also a disappointment. No information at check-in about common areas or services, other than the breakfast room. The manager and “lady of the castle” appears to have rather variable manners: with a few guests she was chatty and pleasant, with most just indifferent, and with some other peevish and rude, to the point of loudly telling off a guest because of a stain on the buffet tablecloth! The tone and contents of her answers to negative reviews here also reveal that character. Not once were we asked whether we were enjoying our stay or whether there was anything we needed, a common question, especially in a small-scale hotel. Not even at check-out did anyone ask us about our stay, so I don’t intend to “bother” them again.

We have been coming here for over ten years as a beginning and end to our annual French holiday. The rooms are always impeccably clean and the staff very friendly and helpful. We always enjoy eating here .

France... Louis De Funes, Johnny Halliday, De Gaulle, Lautrec, the home of my first car: Renault 25 Baccara and the scary gray Paris in January back in 2002. We drove from CLR Airport( i chose Bruxelles becouse of the direct flight, but sorry to say that the staff kept us standing for 2 hours on arrival, while the border police was relaxing and probably jocking about Belgian chocolate, they were having a blast; on our way out we sat again for 30 minutes in a staircase with no ventilation surrounded with screeming dehidrating todlers.. I will definetly try to avoid it in the future) to Celletes, 6 hours, artisticly dodging the flipflop-wearing--scooter-riders from hell on the outskirts of Paris... in a Citroen C4 from Avis... all it needed was a sniff of Channel 5. Entering the gates of CdR is stepping in the story: old trees garding the path to the Chateau backlit from the sunset. We were greeted by Nadine. She looked tired, it was the end of a long-warm day of work, but her welkoming smile was genuine. The room was with large wooden windows. Air conditioner put so that it will not intrude the 1800 vibe. Blue roses on white canvas on the walls. The morning surprised me with a smell of fieldflowers... cofee... and something else. Got dressed and ran to meet the breakfast at 8 a.m. sharp, in the wintergarden: And there it was... the most softest croissants, the sortiments of cheese, the smell of cofee getting roasted by a machine... It is in my top 5 breakfast  ever. During the day we visited 3 castles: 1. Chenonceau( Uber-worth it) 2. Cheverny ( Totally wort it) 3. Chambord (... overrated monstrosity) Evenings, we ate at the Rozelle. Fixed menu, but boy what menu. 1. Terrine / melon cold soup. 2. Fillet minion 3. Creme brule Souch a delightful and tasty clichee. The wine... Cheverny rose. We were waited by the funny, english-speaking weitress who made the evening meal even more pleasent( I just could not refuse her sugestion to have another glass of wine). The aftermath: ... de Funes, Aznavour, Chanoceau Cold mellon soupe, Citroen, tasty cheese,warm croisants and the warm welcome of Chateau Rozelle. Vive la France!
