While not quite as elegant as Chenonceau, Chateau de Chissay did not disappoint us. Yes, the rooms may be a bit dated, but spacious is not a generous enough term and the bathroom was the best we had in France. The view from our room was nice, the staff couldn't have been more helpful, and the location was perfect for... More

Stayed here three times now, each time a delight. The restaurant staff are professional and friendly, the food and wines excellent, and the cosy, vaulted restaurant itself is very special. Practise your rusty school French, and it WILL pay dividends. Yes, some of the bathrooms are a little tired, but it isn't a modern, soulless Raddisson/Holiday Inn/Marriot - the whole... More

The hotel was great with beautiful mid-evil turrets. The restaurant was another story. There was one waiter for the entire restaurant of over 40 people. The poor waiter was over worked. He ignored us and only took our order after I said in French, "Sir, I want to eat." It was an excellent 5 course gourmet dinner. It just took... More

We spent 3 wonderful days in this splendid hideaway for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. All expectations were met or exceeded...especially at dinner, where reservations seem to be encouraged. The breakfast and noon meal were standard European fare,but considering the locale and general ambiance , whats not to like. Be sure and walk the woodsy trail through the forest early in... More

What a beautiful chateau on the Cher River! A medieval building of stone, well maintained and clean rooms with modernised bathrooms. The staff were so helpful and friendly, free Wifi was available, food was so plentiful and of superb quality, waiters were professional and courteous, grounds were neat with groomed gardens, and rural views scenic. Our bicycles were stored undercover... More

Our recent stay at this Chateau was marred by an overwhelming infestation of flies in our bathroom. When we arrived there were 4 or 5 dead flies on our sinks and a couple flying around. , and we noticed a bottled of insect killer. Should have gotten the hint. when we returned later in the day, hundreds, which we killed... More

First sight of the hotel is striking, the 16th C chateau perched part way up the hillside looks as splendid as many of the other Chateaux of the Loire region. Reception staff were welcoming. The rooms certainly weren't boutique hotel style. Their decor isn't trendy but it is classic and the rooms are very large and comfortable. The highlight of... More

Hotel has no bar although the staff will serve drinks where you want but feel a place to meet up and soak... More

THIS HOTEL IS A FIRE DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN. We stayed at le Chissay 4th - 11th October 2010. Booked through Brittany Ferries as one of their top recommended hotels. On arrival the receptionist commented there were few other guests staying as it was near the end of their season. On the 6th October we had dinner in Amboise and... More
