Les Hauts de Loire Relais & Châteaux

非常好！！

Our bucket-list vacation to the Loire valley was even more special with our stay at Les Hauts De Loire. My husband and I stayed in a Prestige Suite in the carriage house. The room was extremely comfortable, luxurious, and large, with a seating area, desk, and a wonderful balcony large enough for a table and two chairs. We spent every evening on our balcony enjoying the picturesque views of the French countryside along with a glass of fabulous French wine. Our bathroom was huge with separate tub, shower, and toilet areas as well as a double sink vanity and heated towel rack. Our room and the hotel were immaculately clean. All hotel staff were friendly and welcoming and very accommodating to any of our requests. The hotel’s grounds are lovely, quiet, and peaceful with many paths through the woods to explore on foot or on a bike, which we quite enjoyed. The breakfast buffet was excellent with an abundance of delectable food items. We enjoyed our daily breakfast in beautiful rooms with flower arrangements, lovely place settings and views of the grounds. The hotel was the perfect location for visiting the amazing châteaux, gardens, and wineries in the eastern Loire valley. It was wonderful to relax in this serene hotel at the end of each sightseeing day. My only suggestion would be for the hotel to get better bikes and house them inside, so they are not so rough to ride. Other than that, our entire stay was absolute perfection, and I would highly recommend this hotel.

The reception staff are welcoming and helpful.  However, our room was small and cramped and noisy from the room above.  The shutters and curtains failed to block out the outside light. The dinner service was not exceptional. Contrary to customary service at exclusive French restaurants, we were surprised that the bistro server wrote in “tip” on the dinner check.  Overall the stay was a marginal experience.  We decided to leave a day early and would not return. Not up to five star standards.

We returned for a 4th visit to Les Hauts De Loire and found it even better than before. Of course the location could not improve -- a few minutes from Amboise and Chenonceau could hardly be better. And the room, facilities, and grounds were as beautiful as before. The Michelin-starred restaurant was, as expected, wonderful. So what was better? The always professional and courteous staff not only remembered us but also seemed genuinely pleased that we returned. They could hardly treat us better than before but their warmth and enthusiasm made us even happier to be there. We hope other travelers get the opportunity to enjoy these professionals and their hotel.

I had been here 40 years ago. It is still better. Wonderful park, great original manor house and a new wing with huge suites make the experience perfect. Great location for loire valley exploration. We had a huge suite in the carriage house. Originally we were assigned suite 6 in the main house but it had a very small salon, so I do not recommend it. For suites in the main house reserve Prestige Suites. The bistro restaurant is nice but noisy. Food is ok The main gourmet restaurant is superb. A feast for the eyes and taste. WiFi works very well Small SPA and large outsize swimming pool

The beds were uncomfortable. Cleaning of the rooms was poor. The pool was crowded and noisy. With screaming children everywhere. Tried to book the spa but it was always booked. So there was nothing to do. You’re stuck in the middle of nowhere
