“An enchanting historic castle in the heart of a beautiful park”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 February 2011

We loved staying in such an elegant historic castle, with a Renaissance flavour and moats! Our room was vast, so was our bathroom. It was very comfortable and cosy, the walls of our room covered in beautiful and colourful textiles. The castle is decorated with great taste and a unique flavour to it; it was recently redecorated by the Prince. Many objects there, such as butterflies, come from his famous 'cabinet de curiosités' Deyrolle, located on rue du bac in Paris.
We strolled in the very large park for more than two hours among its huge trees. We visited the 'conservatoire de la tomate' with hundreds of different colourful tomatoes, some with strange shapes! And there was an interesting exhibition of contemporary artists. Apparently the castle is a showcase for sustainable development.
Altogether, a wonderful experience.

“Real Chateau Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2010

person found this review helpful

Wonderful chateau. It looks great, has fantastic gardens and public rooms, and makes you feel like a million dollars. We had a superior room in the main house with a balcony, which was just wonderful. The grounds are nice to walk around, and the non-heated outdoor swimming pool was perfect for a dip on a hot day. We hardly ever saw any other guests, making do with woodpeckers and deer instead.
I can see why some others had issues with their stay. Althought it is a proper chateau, as good as any you will pay to visit, as a hotel it is 3*, so if you expect saunas, concierge and on site posh restaurant you will be disappointed. We went there on a walking break, and happily walked to Montluis sur Loire and Verez for lunch (45 mins), but there is only one restaurant within 10 mins of the Chateau (La Cave) which, like many other French places, was closed for the annual hols in August and I think Sundays also. So unless you are happy to walk like us, you'll need a car.
Strongly recommended!

“Little bit of luxury”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 August 2010

We stayed here on a trip to the Loire doing the cycle tour. It was lovely. It is stunning and although we looked like we had been dragged in by the cat after a lonnnnngggg day in the saddle, we were wonderfully treated. Our room was luxurious with views over the gardens. We felt like royalty. They don't do evening food which is a shame, but booked us into the local creperie and organised a taxi. The one gripe I have is that breakfast was really slow - but they were busy and appeared to be quite short staffed. Would I go there again - you bet!

“Horrible stay”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2010

Starting with an indifferent staff, and followed by rooms full of bugs, we didn't enjoy our 3 night stay at the chateau. Lovely from the outside, every time we asked a question, we were greeted by a staff who treated us with barely disguised disdain. I wouldn't recommed this hotel until they really improve customer service. Plus, the location was too distant for convenient trips to Amboise or Tours.

“nice "environment friendly" hotel, wonderfull garden, nice rooms, perfect swimmingpool”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2010

We spent a night at Chäteau de la Bourdaisière.

1) Our room was in the building next to the Château and it was alright: spacious room, no TV (who cares?) no air confitioning (but a fan). The Castle try to have a low impact on the environment...We are not environment freaks but it was OK. A TV/DVD room is available in the building next to the Castle.
2) The Castle itself is great. The breakfast was OK for a small place. No restaurant.
3) The swimmingpool is perfect. Really perfect.
4)The potager/vegetable garden with the incredible collection of tomatoes worth a visit. If you are tomatoes aficionado, of course.
5) the surrounding of the Castle is not so great: it is near an industrial area. But when you are in the property, it's really easy to forget/forgive.
6) the owner created some gardening tools and accessories with nice design but poor/ chinese quality.

CCL: Nice place, worth a definitely a night if you are in the region or if you are a tomatoes lover.
