31 mai "Loved Le Vinci Loire Valley!"
2007      JuliaMcC, New Hampshire

We recently spent four nights at this 26 room hotel in the town of Amboise in the Chateaux country, and were very impressed by the quality of the facilities as well as with the amiable multi-lingual staff.
Although we tried to book through an internet site, we received no response, and therefore called the hotel directly. As my French over the telephone is rusty, we were pleased that the staff spoke English. She went out of her way to accomodate our request for a king-sized bed for our four nights.
Upon our arrival, we were greeted and helped to our room, which was very comfortable and well equipped with a first-rate bed, fine cotton sheets and towels (that had no odor of bleach), in-room coffee/tea maker, a safe and a mini-bar. An iron and ironing board are available on request, and an ice machine and buckets are available near the lobby. Although we seldom take breakfast in hotels, we did so at Le Vinci because it was a substantial buffet that lasted us until dinner. Also, the hotel is not in the main part of the town, so we couldn't walk to a bakery or cafe.
However, being in a residential area about two minutes from the town center, the hotel has nice landscaping, secure parking and is very quiet. Due to some road construction with detours, we had some trouble finding it. The location for exploring the Loire Valley is excellent.
Staff recommendations for dinner were excellent; we had superb food and wine at very reasonable prices.
Le Vinci Loire Valley (Best Western) is spotless, and exceeded the standards that we would expect in the $100 range. We would return in a heartbeat!

"Le Vinci" était le premier hôtel où nous nous sommes arrêtés au cours de notre tour des châteaux de la Loire de 7 jours.
L’hôtel lui-même est très confortable et magnifiquement décoré.
Le cadre et les chambres sont superbes, le petit déjeuner est très agréable.
Le personnel est très aimable, professionnel et prévenant.
Cet hôtel vous permet d’avoir un accès facile au centre de Amboise et à ses environs.
