Best Dame-Marie-les-Bois Hotels

Our bucket-list vacation to the Loire valley was even more special with our stay at Les Hauts De Loire. My husband and I stayed in a Prestige Suite in the carriage house. The room was extremely comfortable, luxurious, and large, with a seating area, desk, and a wonderful balcony large enough for a table and two chairs. We spent every evening on our balcony enjoying the picturesque views of the French countryside along with a glass of fabulous French wine. Our bathroom was huge with separate tub, shower, and toilet areas as well as a double sink vanity and heated towel rack. Our room and the hotel were immaculately clean. All hotel staff were friendly and welcoming and very accommodating to any of our requests. The hotel’s grounds are lovely, quiet, and peaceful with many paths through the woods to explore on foot or on a bike, which we quite enjoyed. The breakfast buffet was excellent with an abundance of delectable food items. We enjoyed our daily breakfast in beautiful rooms with flower arrangements, lovely place settings and views of the grounds. The hotel was the perfect location for visiting the amazing châteaux, gardens, and wineries in the eastern Loire valley. It was wonderful to relax in this serene hotel at the end of each sightseeing day. My only suggestion would be for the hotel to get better bikes and house them inside, so they are not so rough to ride. Other than that, our entire stay was absolute perfection, and I would highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel is on the outskirts, very quiet at night, there is a forest and grass outside the window, the environment is very good, the owner is very kind, not ideal is that the bathroom has a small electric heater, which is not warm enough in winter and is cold.

It was cheaper than other hotels of the same level. The hotel room is normal. Staff service is no problem. I was not troubled with the meal

The owner is a Swiss aunt with many quirks, such as the bar and lobby are not allowed to have bright lights during the day or at night, and guests must turn on the flashlight function of their mobile phones to see the text on the list when they look at the menu or drink list. Breakfast has been paid for when booking in advance, and even boiled eggs have to be charged separately! I booked for a week, but after 2 days, my aunt asked me to check out. I was afraid that I would not have money to live. It was too sick!

Chateau was beautiful but this was more of a 3 star hotel. Room we stayed in was very musty smelling.
