Not very impressed. The hotel advertises free public parking nearby - Yes, these are two separate free parking lots but they are 400 to 500 meters away and there is no guarantee of a parking spot - we were lucky as we came when it was quiet (Mid May), it may be an issue in June-July-August. The room was tiny,... More

We were welcomed by the staff in this family run hotel. the rooms were great and reflected the price we paid. They were clean and there was a good sized en-suite bathroom. The hotel is in a great location not far from the centre / river Loire. I would stay here again.

I traveled to Amboise with a school group and they were from what our chaperones said the front desk was extremely helpful. We were in walking distance to Leonardo De Vinci's house which was a plus. We only stayed there for two days so the rooms were big enough for those two stays. The breakfast was great, but a bad... More

We stayed two nights the last weekend of September, 2012. The reception staff helped us with our train and rental car plans, despite our halting French and requests for changes in the reservation. They had clean, warm rooms, comfortable beds, and a plentiful breakfast. We would go back again since the price was quite reasonable.

Long ago we lived in the area of Amboise, and returned to reconnect. Our desires were the same as when we are home: to feel welcomed, cared for, comfortable. Hotel Chaptal fits the bill! This is a modest, immaculate family hotel where the little things matter. Priced right, the ample but not large room had delightfully sleepworthy beds. The efficient... More

The location near the centre of town is excellent. Parking is possible on street at €3 for 4 hours, but free parking is available in Place Richelieu, about 200 metres away. The rooms are a bit small and in ours, the window was so high that you could not see out, but that was on the 2nd floor. The bathroom... More

In a side street, near the centre, with free parking just a short walk away. Good breakfast for France - croissants, breads, yoghurt, fruit, cereals, juice, cheese and meats. Clean, friendly welcome. Comfy bed, not a noisy location. Short walk to the touristy bit near the Chateau or the river. Street parking free between 18.00 and 9.00. Would return without... More

This place is centrally located, just down the street from the tourist office, a grocery store, cafes, shops and the river. A short walk across the river to the train station. It is not within easy walking distance to the Europcar rental agency, however, and the only way to get there is by rather pricey taxi (15 euros to go... More

For the price, the location was excellent. Staff didn't speak English. Room small and shower really tiny. Clean and quiet. Close to shops and restaurants. Breakfast nothing exceptional, very simple. Again great price. They shoudn't advertise they have free wi-fi, because it doesn't work, you can't send emails.
