Chateau D'Artigny seems to evoke mixed reviews--all the way from "most wonderful hotel ever" to "way overpriced and I'd never go back." Based on my experience I think a lot depends upon how you set your expectations. This place first captured my attention in a Relais and Chateau guide in the late 70s/early 80s. I gazed longingly at the picture... more

We loved this chateau. Our room was in the main building. It was clean and large and decorated in a vintage pattern fabric, with a small plasma TV and antique furniture. There was a lot of place to keep our clothes. The bathroom was large too, in pink marble, and the toilet was separate as French ones usually are. Sevice... more

Driving into Montbazon started to ring alarm bells. We had driven down from Rheims and coming into Montbazon with its many retail-outlets lining the road was offputting. Nevertheless, when we finally reached the hotel we were excited to be there as the main reception building looked very nice (although staff were snooty in complete contrast to the fantastic Relais &... more

A lovely hotel though very expensive, staff were very helpful and were very friendly. Arrived 9pm after trip from Dordogne and staff got us into restaurant straight away. A beautiful dining room from a bygone age with guests dressed for dinner. Food very good and service attentive. Room no 37 (Euro 420 ) could have been better, sneaked in to... more

We just spent two nights at the Chateau. The property is lovely, the rooms ok. Unique in that the bathroom was up a flight of stairs. The room was clean and I felt like I was in another world (which was good!) Pool area was nice and clean. Unfortunately it was not the best weather so we couldn't use it!... more

This was an extremely disappointing experience. The property and the common rooms are beautiful; the guest rooms are a disaster. They are old, rundown, and are not clean. There is absolutely nothing luxurious about the accomodations. I asked to see other rooms and they were as equally gross. This place is completed overrated. The staff is very rude. There are... more

We just spent 4 nights at this hotel and while we generally enjoyed our stay, it was by no means a wow! The hotel is located centrally in the Loire valley, but its not terribly easy to get in and out of (its about 20 minutes south of Tours, on the outskirts of the small village of Montbazon. The rooms... more

Without a doubt THE most overrated establishment in which my wife and I have ever had the misfortune to stay (a view shared by the two relatives with whom we were travelling at the time). The place looks magnificent but don't be fooled by the photographs. The rooms are perfectly comfortable, but the decor has been applied rather like someone... more

I booked that hotel for my husband for Christmas for one night and two nights at another chateau. We extended our stay to 3 nights at Chateau 'Artigny and cancelled the other reservation! It is a beautiful Hotel. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. The service is outstanding. They upgraded our room due to availability. And we didn't... more
