Le Blason is conveniently located in the centre of Amboise. The exterior is glorious though it's a shame the interior renovations are not in period style. Thomas and Agnes were both friendly and helpful.

We'll stay again and recommend it wholeheartedly.

I've stayed in lots of hotels in my time and I'm struggling to think of a nicer experience than staying at "Le Blason" in Amboise.

Where should I start?

Amboise. It's a beautiful little town that I have visited several times. It's becoming perhaps just a little too "touristy" now for my liking, but still marvellous. "Le Blason" is in a perfect situation, just a few minutes walk away from just about everything the town has to offer, but still in a quiet enough back street to be away from the tourist hustle and bustle.

The room was perfect. Recently renovated; beds atmospherically tucked in under 16th century beams; mattresses so comfy I would still be asleep now if it weren't for my insomniac toddler; a window overlooking the chateau; wonderful. If I'm being really critical, then the bathroom was small and charmless, but it was perfectly functional. What else do you want from a bathroom anyway?

The hosts were great. Maybe it's because they are a young family like ourselves, but we sensed instantly that they were simply "good people" who took a real pride in their hotel.

And breakfast! Wow!

This is a fantastic hotel at a very reasonable price. If you want to visit the Loire Valley, stay here. Simple.

Nous trouvons, de nouveau, un accueil tres chaleureux et une disponibilité sans faille. Bravo de conserver cet etat d'esprit ... et quelle belle région .... A bientot pour la suite des autres châteaux.

I reserved our one night stay at Le Blason based on reviews posted here.
They were not wrong, this hotel is a little gem nestled in the middle of a little, beautiful medieval town in the Loire Valley.
Since we were traveling with our two daughters (teenagers), we requested a cuadruple room and were given one on the 3rd floor with a magnificent view of the castle. The hotel is only about 8 minutes walk from the castle and the restaurant and shops area. We were very impressed about how comfortable and modern the facilities were inside, since we knew the hotel is located in a building more than 100 years old. The heater worked perfectly and noticed the air conditioner on the wall for warmer months. The room was spacious, L Shaped, with two twin beds and a full bed and a small bathroom. We asked for extra towels, extra pillows and a blowdryier and received them expeditiously. The breakfast was served in a small dining area downstairs and included delicious fresh french breads, yoghurt, cereal, juice and coffee. It only cost 6.50 Euros and thought is was good. Parking is close by and free (rare in that part of the world).

Overall, if we ever visit Amboise again, we will definetely stay at Le Blason.

We enjoyed our stay at Le Blason. The room was clean and the air conditioning was a welcome in June. The bathroom was small but again, clean.
The breakfast was fantastic and cost 6.5 euros. My favorite memory of this hotel was when we came back from shopping and had bought a bottle of wine we asked Thomas if he had two glasses we could use. He asked us if we wanted some bread and croissants to go with it. We went upstairs to get the wine and came back down into the courtyard and he had a basket of breads, wine bottle opener and glasses set out on a table for us.
The hotel is a short walk from the main shopping area. The free parking the hotel offers is right across the street and very handy.

Toujours aussi agréable ce séjour, à bientot

Une halte bien agréable sur notre chemin pour la Bretagne et des petits pains excellents !! peut etre à une autre fois !

Merci pour tout ! cet hotel est très agréable. A voir ... et a revoir

Merci pour votre accueil et pour vos petits déjeuners excellents !

We stayed two nights in this charming hotel, full of character with its 15th-century wood beams.

The room was simple, yet comfortable even for four people, very quiet and clean, and with a view of the castle, and air conditioning. A rare value at that price.

The owners were truly nice, always ready to help, and to share their knowledge of the best spots in the area.

We also had a memorable dinner next door at L' Alliance, a creative and high quality cuisine for a very reasonable price.

And the "Patisserie Bigot" (yes, that's the name) (on the way to the castle) has exquisite macaroons!

Merci pour ce super accueil, les chambres sont très jolies et confortables ! Grâce à vous nous avons passés un très agréable séjour.
