Beautiful property and helpful and friendly staff. I woke up each night around 2 am cause it was too warm and couldn't figure out how to use the AC, but I cool the room by opening the front door. But I never asked the front desk for help. Other than that, everything was fantastic. Prepare to be amazed by the beauty of this place.

Really enjoyed the heated pool even though the weather was chilly. Room in the turret was compact but had a lovely view of the Loire. Dinner was excellent and staff in the restaurant and hotel were attentive and charming but relaxed. Decor wasn’t to our taste - furniture and fabrics were all a bit nouveau but that wouldn’t deter us from staying there again

We greatly enjoyed our time in Amboise and staying at the Chateau de Pray. The staff is excellent, very friendly and helpful. Laura is a treasure! The property is everything you imagine it will be taking you back to the time of kings and queens. But yet, modernized enough for the comfort that we all want in today's times. The grounds are beautiful. We enjoyed a hike through the forest and the view of the Loire river is perfect. The Michelin star restaurant set in the limestone cave is wonderful as well. We traveled with our 9 year old son and we all had the best time ever. Will stay here again on our next trip to the valley.

This was a great stay. The staff at the Chateau was very welcoming and helpful. Our room had a terrace which overlooked the beautiful courtyard. The breakfast was wonderful and a great start to the day. The hotel offers every amenity possible, and I would highly recommend this Chateau for a truly memorable experience.

It's fun staying in a castle. The entire property was nice. For the price, though, one expects the room to be a little more magical.

Charming French Chateau
The chateau was in the perfect location to enjoy some of the magnificent chateaus nearby. We are a family with 4 teenagers and therefore stayed in 2 rooms in the outer building for 2 nights. While both rooms were comfortable, one room had an odd smell that never went away. We ate dinner the Michelin rated restaurant located on property and the meal was superb. The pool was very clean and enjoyable.

This is a must stay if you are in the area. Beautiful rooms. No lifts but they carried our luggage. My husband has trouble with stairs but they tried to accommodate us. Parking on prémisses easy but driveway difficult to get into. Restaurant excellent we dined there both nights. Staff were amazing. Have to drive to shops but an excellent stay.
