As we booked our reservation late we were only able to stay one night but it sure was worth it !! Lovely staff and owners. Great location. An easy 5 to 10 min. drive to Amboise center. We made our children suffer through an "adult dinner" that night so that we could eat at the hotel restaurant and they were... more

We stayed at the Chateau de Pray in the Loire Valley at the end of May in 2007, and loved every minute of it. We had one of the rooms in the towers, and while it was small, it was nice, cozy, and well-decorated, with a comfortable bed, a thick down comforter, marble flooring in the bathroom, and white, fluffy... more

We wanted to see the Loire, decided Amboise was the perfect central location to visit Chenonceau, Cheverny & Chambord. Because of the reviews of the food, we decided to stay at the Chateau de Pray, about 3km east of Amboise proper. What's to say? It's 700 years old, it's an old Loire chateau renovated to modern standards with a fantastic... more

Stayed at the Chateau de Pray in July. Booked a 2 room apartment in the main house for family of four. The room was great and the grounds were beautiful. In addition, we ate dinner in the on-site restaurant that evening, and it was unbelievably good, probably the best prepared food we had in our entire two week stay in... more

We spent 4 nights at Chateau de Pray in August. 07 The hotel is aparrently now owned by the chef, which comes as no surprise and the food is both interesting and tasty with service verging on the melodramatic. However they do not appear to change their menu much if at all in a week say so your choice is... more

We stayed at Chateau de Pray, just 2 km outside Amboise, for 2 nights in July 2007. On arriving at the hotel you drive into a beautiful large courtyard where you have secure guest parking. We stayed in Room 16, which was on the top floor of a turret. It was called the ‘Dolly’ room and was really pretty and... more

My husband and I first went to the chateau de pray for a meal upon a recommendation. We instantly fell in love with it. We were at the first stages of planning our wedding at the time and we both shared the same sentiment that we couldn't think of a more perfect place to get married. My husband is french... more

Arrived in the area earlier than expected so decided to call and see if our room was available. Told quite sharply by the receptionist (when she eventually appeared from the little cubby hole behind reception) that an early check in was not possible and to come back at 3 o'clock. No offer to let us leave our luggage was forth... more

We chose this rather faded old fort and now French 4 star NN rated Chateau to base ourselves in for 2 days whilst touring the Loire Valley. This is a difficult one to rate. Lets start with the good points! Location: in the middle of the Loire region and a good place to base oneselves for several days touring. Price:... more
