Stunning comfort room, huge bed, sofa, tv, coffee machine,mini bar, large walk in shower, twin sinks. Absolute luxury. The grounds, pool, views and staff make this a wonderful place to stay. Book the amazing restaurant and you'll be in heaven!

Beautiful chateaux in a gorgeous setting in the Loire Valley! Gourmet restaurant where we had a delicious meal. The staff were very attentive and welcoming. We traveled with our 5 month old and they were very accommodating. Would highly recommend

Extremely poor kitchen, breakfast was a disaster. Firstly an egg's Benedict was deconstructed to a single poached egg with a slice of toast, clearly not an eggs Benedict. Apart from the slow invisible service the real disaster was the ham and cheese omelette, the cheese that was used was a slice of orange Kraft American cheese that's usually found on a burger. What chef in France would consider that acceptable?

Amazing building and rooms - beautiful design with very good aircon. Attentive staff - can recommend local places to eat and visit. Outstanding food - everyday breakfast was wonderful and the gastronomique restaurant is a one of a kind. Thank you.

No lift. My room was in an annex and on the third floor. Just poor to average overall. The restaurant was good, but overall, I would skip staying here and just make a reservation for dinner. Grounds were pretty. The hotel is remote, so if you are staying ere, this would be the place to eat.

The hotel's setting is beautiful, some of the public rooms are quite nice and comfortable. The bedrooms are poorly decorated but clean and large. We initially had a really good first impression as the welcome we received from the guy who showed us to our room and the person that recommended a local wine, they were fantastic. Unfortunately, their professionalism was seriously let down by their colleagues the following day. Breakfast was a disaster. For an establishment that promotes and prides itself on excellent gastronomy, they should be ashamed. Firstly, the menu is complicated and expensive, breakfast for two will set you back circa 70 euro. Surely if they have the confidence to charge that amount then the food must be good right? There were only two other couples seated when we arrived so they were not busy by any standard. We had to ask for menus and after ordering we waited an hour to be served. Firstly an egg's Benedict was deconstructed to a single poached egg with a slice of toast, clearly not an eggs Benedict. Apart from the slow invisible service the real disaster was the ham and cheese omelette, the cheese that was used was a slice of orange American cheese that's usually found on a burger. What chef in France would consider that acceptable? We had booked an evening meal that night but canceled immediately after breakfast as the kitchen in this establishment is incredibly poor. Also worth noting that we had to drive 30 mins into Angers to get food as there is nothing in the rural locality. Prob best to avoid, shame.

Very nice property, well maintained, superb location, very nice rooms, staff very helpful. But.... We booked the 'Gourmet Stay' and for this 'promo' you only get the Bistrot Menu which is really, frankly very far below average, especially for a 'Relais & Chateaux'. You'd expect that in some below average Paris bistrot, but not here. Really not. And overpriced for what you get. Nice breakfast, but.... here again they charge an indecent price for eggs or cheese, which I think should be part of a regular breakfast. As they are in the hotels we visit. So don't book the 'Gourmet Stay' and stay away from the Bistronomic menu. We didn't get the opportunity to try the other menu... I will probably not be getting back there anytime soon.

Beautiful hotel maintained and furnished to a high standard. Large rooms. Excellent, high quality, food and drink with prices to match. However; Hotel refers to two restaurants, in reality only one but very limited menu in early part of week particularly as some items listed were not available.Later in week food good but ..see below. If you book a room rate inclusive of breakfast be aware this is very basic, breads, croissants, juice which usually had to be requested as decanters empty . Dairy items such as yogurt or cheese, eggs, cold meat, fruit and anything cooked at significant extra cost. Yogurt at extra cost was a small plastic tub of Vanilla or Vanilla, no choice. Pleasant pool but closed on 2 of 3 days we stayed due to filter problems. Some noise problems late at night in main building as echoey and sound carried. Defining aspect was however service which was below acceptable. For example, no staff to be found at all in the hotel for some 30 minutes pre dinner on the first night and guests just waiting around bemused. Food and drink service very slow, and everything had to be asked for, if you could find anyone to ask. Staff just walked past guests carrying luggage (stairs steep) with no offer to help. No sign of any management during our stay. On complaining at reception staff agreed service very poor, breakfast basic and pool closure unacceptable but although they agreed to to Breakfast costs being deducted this did not go anywhere near compensating for the issues. We wanted to like this Hotel but would recommend looking elsewhere due to issues above;in particular the poor service.

We had a very pleasant overnight stay. The staff, food and wine were excellent. The bedroom was the only letdown, too small and very hot. We made use of the swimming pool which was kept at a good temperature.
