A town in the Loire Valley, Amboise offers a unique historic and cultural heritage. Immerse yourself in the history of France, the life of Charles VIII or that of Leonardo da Vinci, during a stay in a hotel in Amboise.

Experience history life-size through the royal apartments, underground passages and sublime gardens, before touring the imposing Château d’Amboise, once a royal residence. Everything in Amboise helps make your stay exceptional: the cosmopolitan spirit of its streets, the Sunday market, the proximity of the Loire châteaux and its various natural areas.

Don’t hesitate to book your hotel in Amboise for a few days or a week: whether you love history, art or nature, the town is sure to win you over.

Where to stroll in Amboise?

A royal town par excellence, Amboise draws visitors with its sumptuous château, built under the reigns of Francis I, Louis XII and Charles VIII. This site is a must during your stay, as much for its architecture as for its history. The château’s chapel also houses the tomb of the illustrious Leonardo da Vinci. Continue your journey through time with the Château du Clos Lucé and the Leonardo da Vinci Park, to better immerse yourself in the artist’s world. The park “Le jardin de Léonard” deserves a stop to fully appreciate the genius’s various models.

Which kings lived at the Château d'Amboise?

The château’s royal destiny truly began in 1434, when Charles VII acquired it. His son Louis XI then transformed this medieval fortress into a permanent residence for his wife Charlotte of Savoy.

The château reached its peak under Charles VIII, who was born there in 1470 and spent most of his life there until his tragic death in 1498. After him, Henry II and Catherine de’ Medici left a deep mark on the château’s history by raising their children there, including the future Francis II.

The Chanteloup Pagoda

The Chanteloup Pagoda will literally enchant you. From its 44-metre height, the pagoda offers a grandiose panorama over the entire Loire Valley and the Amboise forest. While the small Chinese garden delights those who love contemplation, the old-fashioned games make for relaxing family moments, before setting off for a boat ride on the Grande Pièce d’Eau

During a stay in a hotel in Amboise, history and architecture enthusiasts can finally satisfy their thirst for culture and discovery, as there are so many incredible sites. This is notably the case of the Château Gaillard, dreamed up by Charles VIII, and its Pacello gardens. The royal estate can be visited as a family among its great flowerbeds, medieval bakery, olfactory grotto and hothouses. Enjoy a sensory and initiatory journey like no other, in a lost Paradise born of the Renaissance.

Finally, head to the Hôtel Morin museum, the Mini-Châteaux park, the Clock Tower, the Saint-Florentin church and the Saint-Jean chapel, if you have more free time. And to finish on an original note, the fountain “Aux cracheurs, aux drôles, au génie” will spark the curiosity of young and old alike. This monumental work by Max Ernst brings together nearly 10 sculptures and pays tribute to Touraine and to the famous artist Leonardo da Vinci in a playful and poetic way.

"Excellent value for Amboise"

NickStuecklen, 11 Septembre 2026

Friendly, professional, helpful staff. Large room, very clean, and kept immaculate by the hard-working cleaning lady. Nespresso machine in-room, kept stocked by the staff. Amazing breakfast, with eggs, bacon, large espresso machine, orange juice, pastries, cereals, and the best pain au chocolat in Amboise. Highly recommended. One very small complaint: the in-room fridge did not keep the sodas cold.

"lovely, comfortable, and reasonably priced"

Erin S, 15 Août 2026

A lovely, comfortable, and reasonably priced hotel about a 20-minute walk from the center of Amboise. We stayed three nights during the terrible heat wave, and the staff did everything possible to make sure we were as comfortable as possible. The mattress was one of the most comfortable we have ever tried! We slept very well despite the heat. Breakfast was excellent with lots of choices, even for me being gluten free. This was a quiet, peaceful, and well-located hotel for our stay in Amboise.

"Air conditioning not working"

Jim I, 08 Juillet 2026

Really nice hotel with so much to offer except working air conditioning. Room 211 in our case. Nothing could be done about it according to staff. No fan available. We used this as a stopover en-route back to Le Shuttle and an air conditioned room was a pre-requisite. Amboise is worth a visit.

"Good basic hotel"

CavMcDs, 04 Mai 2026

Our last hotel on a short cycling break. Up a hill which is hard on the legs on the last day! Slightly tired decor but helpful staff and the rooms are fine. A good breakfast in quite a small breakfast room.

"A lovely four nights stay in Amboise"

jpseddie, 07 Janvier 2026

We stayed at this hotel for four nights in October last year as part of our road trip to the Loire Valley. The property from the outside resembles a small château discreetly tucked away from one of the main roads leading to Amboise. The rooms were very quiet, and we had a wonderful nights sleep every night. The hotel staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming, and communication was easy despite our limited French. In the evening we went for a walk into the centre of Amboise which was around a 25 minute walk where there were plenty of places to eat and drink if you wanted to go exploring into the town instead. As we were travelling in a classic car, we also greatly appreciated the secure off-road parking provided in the inner courtyard, and the large car park behind the hotel which offered both convenience and peace of mind.

"Dissapointed"

Tony M, 18 Octobre 2025

A nice enough place, but after reserving a 'Privilege' room at extra cost, I was very disappointed in the room itself which was small, and other than having a King size bed had nothing else to commend it. There was no USB power outlet, the Coffee machine was only stocked for one cup each, and all in all I was expecting more from using a 'Best Western'.

"Quiet, comfortable, great breakfast."

bluestocking78, 16 Septembre 2025

We stayed four nights here on our recent trip. It was perfect for us. The location is in a great location for getting on the road to nearby destinations in the Loire Valley (Chenonceau, Cheverny, Blois) , and the hotel offers on site parking. The breakfast buffet is great, the staff courteous, our bed was comfy, our room sparkling clean. There is a lift, and English is spoken by all the staff. The hotel is very reasonably priced compared to others in Amboise. The hotel is in a residential neighborhood approximately 25 minutes downhill walk from the city center/restaurants/ historic sights (uphill on the return.) This makes for a restful and quiet night's sleep. We left our car at the hotel and enjoyed the walk- those with mobility issues would probably need to drive and find parking.

"Ok for one night"

Jean-Claude R, 15 Juillet 2025

Good location if you visit the Loire Valley. However, rooms are small and old fashioned with very little charm. For a one night stay it is good enough. I wouldn't stay longer. If you upgrade to a superior room you get a kettle and a mini fridge (with a small water bottle). The building is ok but the interior is dated.

"A nice hotel but not in town"

Anne D, 08 Septembre 2024

Nice hotel, although a little out of town. Accessible entry was not immediately visible so I walked up the steps in my crutches. Checkin was fine. Room was comfortable and parking was fine. Breakfast was good and staff were helpful. A tad pricey given the out of town location.

"Best staff and great quality. Not in the hub of sites"

frankregina119, 02 Juin 2024

Hotel is not in the city center and it is a bit of a walk to get there, however for the price and if you have a car to get to the other chateaus this is your place! Staff was exceptional! Again just be aware that nothing is around the hotel for food or sites without a long walk to the city center or a drive.
