    We stayed one night in a 2nd floor attic charm room. We had a beautiful view of the Chateau…read mored'Amboise and the Loire River. There are exposed beams in the room and the ceiling is slanted so the configuration is a bit unusual. I was worried one of us would hit our head on something at some point but it wasn't an issue. My husband is about 6'3" and was fine. If you're much taller, I'd probably avoid the attic rooms. The hotel is great - probably one of my favorite that I've stayed at. The bed was extremely comfortable and the service was very friendly. There were plenty of in room amenities and it was spacious compared to many other hotels. I was a bit concerned about the friendliness going into our stay due to reviews I'd read. We aren't "fancy" people and I was worried that we would feel out of place. It was definitely a nice hotel and a bit more upscale but I never felt awkward being there. The price was also very good in comparison to other hotels we stayed at (realizing that Paris is obviously more expensive than smaller cities elsewhere) so this felt like a real bargain! 5 stars.

And don't miss their tomato soup - it is the best I've ever had. They sell it in their little grocery bistro which has everything you need for lunch or a light dinner as an alternative to a restaurant. They'll serve it for you nice and hot in their lounge, on the patio, or in your room.

Each morning we watched hot air balloons go by :) The room was very comfortable, the staff were kind and helpful, and the location was fantastic. Keep in mind that it's a small building and there is no elevator. A few notes that may be helpful to others: 1) The parking area is through a gravel area. If you have luggage on wheels, I highly recommend you stop near the front door and unload your luggage before parking your car because it's impossible to really drag luggage on wheels through the gravel (you'd need to carry them). 2) Rent a small car! The entrance/exit is on the corner of two one-way streets and is quite narrow to enter and exit through and also to make a sharp turn in either direction when exiting. Having a smaller car will be easier to navigate. 3) They lock the main gate at night for security and there is a small door you can exit and enter through by foot but we couldn't figure out how to exit through there (we had the code to enter from the outside but couldn't figure out how to open it from the inside to leave). They ended up opening the main gate for the cars and we walked through that in the early morning but if you need to leave very early (for example for a hot air balloon tour) before the main gate is typically unlocked you'd need to check with the staff to make sure you're able to exit early enough with your vehicle.

We were greeted warmly by the British/French concierge and made our way to our rooms. Throughout our stay, the staff were amazingly accommodating and friendly. One evening, while sipping Calvados, we were accompanied by the concierge who gave us a thorough history of both the B&B and Amboise. They made an outstanding recommendation for meals (Chateau du Pray). Finally, the breakfast meals were simple but amazing. Fresh fruits, meats and made to order omelets all made the experience very enjoyable. My only complaint, as we traveled with another couple, was that our two rooms were separated. That is, my wife and I stayed in the detached building while our travel companions where in the main building.

The clientele were mostly tours of old couples who had come to see the Châteaux. There was decent room service, the room was spacious and pleasant in a modern way, and the restaurant downstairs makes a decent lunch. We also found it reasonably priced compared to Paris prices. It is however, difficult to find. When the sun goes down you can hardly make out the street names which is unfortunate when you are trying to follow a map. If you are driving there yourself I recommend getting there before sunset. In terms of visiting chateaux, there is one in the town, Chateau Amboise, which is very near but not as impressive as some of the others. The house where Leonardo da Vinci spent his last years is also nearby. We drove an hour to Chateau Chenonceau, which was fantastic, and another 30 minutes to the Sleeping Beauty castle, Chateau D'Usse, which has a fairytale look. I have heard that Chambord is also amazing but that is an hour's drive in the opposite direction, so you might want to stay a few days. Distances between chateaux are quite large, so if you want to see a few then stay longer. The hotel is well-placed if you want to do daily road trips to different castles in the Loire Valley, and it has less traffic than Tours, another city with a good location for visiting castles. I recommend it!

However, our trip was somewhat spoiled by a bizarre and highly unpleasant experience at a hotel in your city. My wife and I are 77 and 75 years old respectively. We have traveled all over the world and stayed at many fine hotels. We have never been treated in a way similar to the way we were treated by the people at Au Charme Rabelaisien. I am wondering whether or not this is the first complaint you have had about them. I would not be surprised if you have had others. We booked a room there for 4 nights - May 12-16. Au Charme Rabalesien. On the last night of our stay I went out to ask for 3 more coffee capsules, since we had more decaf but only 1 caffeinated. I went out to the front to ask for more coffee. This was at 10 PM at night. There was no one at the front desk and I did not want to disturb anyone. So I walked into the small dining area next to the reception area. This area was not closed in any way. A guy named Maximilian, who later identified himself as a partner in the hotel, came out and told me he had seen me on the closed circuit TV. I had been trespassing on private property and was guilty of stealing coffee. Also. he said that we were only entitled to a total of 3 coffees per day, but since we were leaving the next day he granted me an extra one. I asked him if he was kidding, but apparently he was quite serious. He wished me a good night in a very sarcastic manner. This is not the way one wants to spend one's last night in the Loire Valley. When we were checking out the next morning Maximilian was at the front desk. I decided to pay him and leave without bringing the matter up again. But this was not to be. He started berating me (and my wife) again, accusing me again of terrible behavior and of stealing from them. As we were leaving he said "Just get out of here". I tried to explain to him that the single coffee capsule I had in my hand was one I had taken from our room to make sure that I got a similar one. I had felt all along that this hotel was a mistake, not a serious one but not a place I would book again given the choice. But my encounter with this twit really soured our experience here. The next night, when we were staying at CDG for our flight the next morning - this part is really incredible - I got a long email from a lawyer, more or less threatening me not to write anything bad about the hotel online or give them bad reviews. I am copying the letter below. I would also add that in my opinion this hotel does not have the trappings of a 4-star hotel. The room was slightly shabby, there were cobwebs in a lamp, the toilet bowl was not real clean, the soap provided was tiny and the towels were small. The floors were bare and hard. Worst of all there was a TV set mounted on the wall that we hit our heads on because it was tight against the bed and hard to avoid. All in all, a nice 3-star hotel, but not a luxury hotel at 200 Euros a night. I would not have mentioned my opinion of the hotel itself if not for the outrageous behavior of this Maximilian person and his lawyer. Please look into this and let me know what you think. Also, in the lawyer's email he says something about a children's bed. We have no children. You will also notice that he threatens me with 3 years in jail for supposedly stealing coffee. I told him that unlike Jean Valjean, who was actually guilty of stealing the silver of the Bishop of Digne, we had stolen absolutely nothing.
