Best Hotels in Saint-Regle

We stayed in Arpentis because we wanted the unique experience of staying in a real chateau while in Loire Valley. The chateau itself had evidence of neglect (stained rugs in the hallway, missing tiles in the ceiling) and was somewhat run down but the grounds were lovely. It had an ample supply of taxidermied specimens. The proprietor barely engaged with us but he was pleasant enough when he did. He basically gave us the key to our room and we were on our own. Our room was comfortable enough with a view of the chateau grounds. Breakfast was basic and not worth the cost in my opinion (baguette, pastry, and store bought yogurt along with coffee and juice), we only had it once. A communal kitchenette with a toaster oven and refrigerator was available but it wasn’t very well appointed (no napkins or towels/dish rack to dry your dishes, for instance). Guests also had access to a washer/dryer which we appreciated. Since there were no meals available at the chateau other than breakfast, we drove to the nearby town of Amboise about 10 minutes away at night which was inconvenient because parking there was hard to find. We brought baguette, cheese and wine on our last night and picnicked on the grounds. WiFi was weak and unreliable which made it difficult to purchase our tickets for Chambord, Chenonceau, and Villandry. Overall, Arpentis was a unique experience but it was expensive for what it offered and was not the most comfortable or convenient stay.

This hotel has a friendly helpful staff. If you have read the reviews, you know there is a restaurant on premise. The breakfast menu there is great (on par with most other Ibis and Mercure properties we have stayed at in France. The dinner menu is primarily Italian with one or two French offerings. Unlike some reviews I read, the Pizza is very good (like in Italy good). Here are some things you should know about this hotel. It is about 2.5 miles from Amboise in the middle of an industrial park! The hotel restaurant is your only option unless you walk 1.2 miles to McDonald’s or take a taxi into town (17 Euros one way) or ride the local bus route (.70 Euro one way). We found the local bus to be a viable option - ask at the front desk for the schedule. This hotel is pretty old compared to most Ibis hotels and was remodeled several years ago. The rooms are very small (per European standard) and are clean. The air conditioning does not work well. We were in two different rooms and with the air on lowest setting neither room would cool below 29 Centigrade. The outside temp while we were there was 19!!! We complained so they moved us to the second room with still no air conditioning. The front desk looked upset and suggested we turn off the air and open the window! This hotel and most other Ibis properties do not have window screens (invented in the 19th century to stop insect borne diseases). By morning, my wife and I were both covered with mosquito bites. You should also know that it is the policy of Ibis hotels in France to switch their systems from cooling to heating - no exceptions for guest comfort. We have been staying in Ibis and Mercure properties all over France so we know them well. We next went to a Mercure hotel in Saumur and it was lovely! The air worked well there.

We stayed two nights at this hotel on the way to and from a fortnight in the Cevennes. The service we received from all the staff was excellent. Everyone smiled, was well informed and clearly wanted our stay to be enjoyable. Full marks! Both times we had a room with a beautiful view down over the town to the chateau. Each room was well equipped and spotlessly clean. Again full marks! This would have been a five star review had it not been for the variable quality of the meals. On the way down we had supper in the restaurant. My three choices were fine but my wife's were completely underwhelming. Breakfast the next day in the restaurant was chaotic. It was seething with groups and everything was running out. On the way back we decided to use room service. The menu and prices were identical and the meals arrived on time and hot enough. Sadly, the quality was again variable. The medallions of pork which I had had perfectly cooked on our way down were replaced by inch thick chunks of dry, overcooked meat of which my wife could eat only a fraction. Breakfast in our room, however, was just fine. We would visit again, seek our evening meals elsewhere and breakfast in our room.

This is a really lovely hotel - all the windows and doors were open when we stayed during hot weather so the place was light and airy. The staff are really helpful and welcoming. Our room looked out onto the terrace and garden area where guests can have a drink and or something to eat. The breakfast offered a lot of choices and was very good quality. If you have never been to Amboise before it is a beautiful place with plenty to see and do but there is very little in the way of public transport and we struggled to get a taxi back to the train station. Depending on how quickly you walk the hotel is about a 25 minute walk into the centre which is beautiful.

Hotel propre ,bien situé, mais gros point négatif : l hôtesse à l accueil: accueil déplorable, mal agréable se permet de nous dire arrogante et sur d elle que la chambre été réserver que pour 1 jour et pas régler,alors que la chambre été payer et réserver pour 2 jours depuis 2 mois! Après lui avoir dit de bien observer son PC,elle s en est enfin aperçu ! Waou! Pas même 1 petite excuse...bref d une impolitesse et d une arrogance totale on a vraiment eu l air de déranger.C est la première fois que somme reçu de la sorte dans un ibis.En revanche personnel ménager sait dire bonjour à la clientèle lui!et fait son travail correctement

It was cheaper than other hotels of the same level. The hotel room is normal. Staff service is no problem. I was not troubled with the meal

This château is beautiful. It is carved into a cliff and has a huge lawn and accompanying woods to explore. One walk in the woods dedicated to this hotel and you'll be transported to another time and place. In the late afternoon the light is dappled by the surrounding trees and casts a warm glow over the bridges, river, and meadows. The staff is professional and gracious. We ate 2 meals here, one dinner and one breakfast. They were both wonderful. The real standout was breakfast. Madamoiselle delivered goods that were fresh and either locally sourced or homemade. The jams and honey are divine, and both are made at the castle (bee hives located on site). During breakfast the owner stopped by to chat with us. He was an absolute delight. He is passionate about the chateau and the local faire. Be sure to chat with him on your stay!

Stayed for three nights and was very satisfied. The location is good, quiet, within walking distance of the town center and the castle. The room is very comfortable. The parking lot was in the yard. I couldn't get in. The staff came out to help when they saw it. The breakfast is not very rich, but all the food is of high quality. It is recommended to order a dinner there. It is delicious and the service is excellent. The selected family room has a sofa bed that can be opened to sleep, which is very spacious
