Hôtel Restaurant Le Clos d'Amboise

We were not only well received by the reception staff but also kindly allocated a room on the ground floor. The room was excellent and with a classical look decor. The room size was good and offered a good night sleep. Morning breakfast offered a good variety of items to choose from. The entire hotel is well looked after and it has a certain charm of wanting to return and get to know Amboise better. The hotel is ideally located and within main attraction centre, shops and restaurants and of course Chateau Royal d'Amboise. The hotel also offers a off-street car park.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Memorable Experience at Le Clos d’Amboise My husband and I had a small window of time to finish our day in Amboise, and we decided to stop at Hôtel Restaurant Le Clos d’Amboise after seeing a Rick Steves recommendation — what a wonderful choice it turned out to be! The hotel and courtyard are absolutely charming — elegant yet comfortable, with a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to slow down and enjoy the moment. We purchased a bottle of wine (so reasonably priced!) and relaxed outside in the beautiful garden, surrounded by quiet and greenery. Even though we had limited time, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us. Their kindness and attention made us feel genuinely cared for. The meal we enjoyed was one of the best I had during our entire trip — not just in Amboise, but in Paris and beyond. Every bite was incredible, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Le Clos d’Amboise is a place that captures the heart — we left wishing we had more time to stay. Highly recommend!

I'm confused by all the rave reviews. This place is clean and ok. But overpriced for the level of the property. Our room was incredibly hot. I turned off the heater completely. Still hot. I tried to crack a window, but someone was using a fireplace nearby, so the room started to smell like smoke, so I had to close it. Then in the morning I tried to crack the window while getting ready- no more smoke, but car exhaust fumes as if I was in a bus depot. Lots of street noise for a small village. The water running through the pipes from rooms above was really loud. and our drains in our bathroom gargled every time someone above us used water. Towels were very small and thin. pictures on here must have been taken with special wide angle lenses. Rooms, even in lobby, are much smaller than they appear. It's a decent location and the staff was very friendly. I booked a breakfast rate - I don't think I'd do that again. The breakfast was just ok. Oh. If you come off season, book their restaurant in advance. there were very few places open for dinner. ALL pizza. Their restaurant was booked. I feel like I paid about 50 euros too much for this compared to the other places I stayed in the region.

Our visit to Le Clos D'Amboise Hotel was for 3 days. It has a lovely location and the grounds are well-manicured and welcoming. The breakfast buffet is ample and has many choices to begin your morning: Eggs, meats, cheeses, yogurts, fresh fruit, pastries and breads. Staff is welcoming and willing to help; housekeeping is prompt and thorough. Excellent bedding, linens and towels. We had a soaking tub with an unwieldy shower attachment; not user-friendly for us as seniors but nonetheless, we managed. The hotel does offer a lift to avoid the stairs. There is a highly recommended restaurant and full bar associated with this hotel but we did it have sufficient time to avail ourselves of it. The location is excellent for reaching walkable sites throughout town. We very much enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this hotel to anyone heading to Amboise.

We did not know what to expect from a “superior room” at Le Clos d'Amboise. Our experience was more than superior though. The room had a beautiful view of the garden with its 100 year old trees and a distant view of the Saint-Hubert Chapel steeple & next to the royal Château at Amboise. A short 5-7 minute walk from the center of the city, we loved the history of the grounds and the many beautiful images, art, and architecture of the place. Clos Lucé, where Leonardo da Vinci spent his last three years, the Royal Château of François 1er, is also a short 5-7 minute walk. We did early morning walks every day. Highly recommend going to the market by the river - Le marché d'Amboise. The water pressure was great. The bath tub comfortable. And the bed easy to sleep on. One of the best things for us was the morning breakfast. In some ways more flavorful than the breakfast we enjoyed in our Paris hotel, the flavors of the Loire Valley come through with fresh fruits, cheeses, and grains. The hams and sausages did not disappoint either. And, the coffee, just right. If you want an elegant, affordable authentic stay, Le Clos d'Amboise is our suggestion.

The Hotel has a perfect location in the center of Amboise. Ideal for visiting the city. A short walk from the castles and several restaurants and cafes. It is a small oasis in the city center. Consisting of several reconstructed buildings around a small and peaceful garden (ideal for a drink in the late afternoon) It also has a swimming pool for hot days.||Friendly reception staff. We had a problem: we booked a room with two beds and they gave us a very small room with just one bed. As the hotel was full it was impossible to change rooms, but we were offered breakfast as compensation.||Very good breakfast served in the magnificent restaurant space.||Private parking, which is extremely useful in Amboise

It is hard to find enough superlatives to describe this hotel. It is not run of the mill, it does not have brusque, disinterested staff, it does not have sterile, adequate accommodation and it certainly does not offer sub standard cuisine, Staff, accommodation, cuisine, location, all absolutely superb...it has it all and more. Worth a detour wherever you are going in France.

It was the second time we stayed at your hotel and that was not by accident. The quality of the chef certainly played also a major role. We already look forward to a stay somewhere next year.

Great restaurant experience. The five and seven course prix fixe are good values. The service and food are top notch. Great wine list from the region.

We stayed here for two nights as part of a bike tour of the Loire Valley. The room was beautifully appointed and spacious, with a beautiful view of the courtyard and the spires of the chateaux behind it. The service was excellent, and the location was great, walking distance to everything in town. We also enjoyed the lovely pool surrounded by gardens and bird song. The restaurant on site had delicious food for both breakfast and dinners.

This is a wonderful hotel. Very beautiful gardens and relaxing rooms. Had a spectacular stay and would highly recommend this hotel. Breakfast was really nice in wonderfully appointed rooms. It was a great contrast with our stay in Paris. Also, our room did have air conditioning, so it may be wise to ask when booking.

This is an ok hotel but it's not a four star like it advertises. Reasons: just ok room decor, a hair on my sheets, some minor stains, a pigeon roost above my window so there was debris and pigeon feathers on my bed when I came back, nice front desk attendant when he is there, broken fixtures in the bathroom left broken. All No big deal if a suite (number 21) didn't cost 295euros per night. If you want a hotel in the area that sets the standard at four and probably approaches five star, check out Hotel Domaine de la Tortiniere.

Enjoyable little place to hide away. Next to everything really. Appreciated that the night staff didn't mind us staying up late and reading our jet lag away into the wee hours. Also a wonderful breakfast! Thanks!

Wonderful old hotel. Inside the gate is a great jarden and swimming pool. Rooms are relaxing and all are uniquely decorated. Private free parking is a bonus. Staff is extremely helpful and willing to do anything to make your stay comfortable. No a/c in the rooms but the tall ceilings and shade from trees make it comfy

Looking for a one night get away from Paris for our 24th wedding anniversary, my wife, after much research, choose this hotel. This was a lovely choice for many reasons. The location is on a quiet street quite near the center of town. The property, an ancient manor house, gives onto beautifully manicured grounds with some of the most magnificent trees imaginable. Toward the back of the gardens is a lovely swimming pool for use in better weather than unfortunately we experienced during our stay. But, never mind. We stayed in one of their basic rooms on the top floor (room 10) and couldn't have been happier. It was as if we were invited into someones home with a guest room only for us. Breakfast, included, is served in the main room on the ground floor and featured a very nice spread of delicious food. The staff of this hotel is helpful and professional without being stuffy. I would highly recommend staying here and I hope that we have the opportunity to stay here again in the not too distant future.
