We received a very warm welcome on a cold rainy day. Our room was wonderful. At the top of the house views over the roof tops, a skylight in the tub area, simply charming. Breakfast is in a garden room and has lots of choices with fresh fruit every day and french press coffee. Gloria is a huge help in... More

Our room was cute, terrific bath tub. Our hosts were very pleasant and very helpful in pointing out which chateaus to see and how not to get lost driving in France. Great breakfast. Parking was easy once we found the hotel. Our hosts were from the United States so there were no problems communicating.

Le Vieux Manoir was a convent in a former life. Each of its guest rooms has a unique feel. Our room, the Madame de LaFayette was roomy, comfortable and felt like a real country inn. It had up-to-date plumbing with plenty of hot water whenever we wanted it. The B&B is fronted by a beautiful gated garden in the heart... More

We stayed in the Maison de Gardien attached to the main house. It was impeccably clean and well appointed with comfortable antiques as well as linens, towels and a great bed. The bath was lovely as well. We especially enjoyed our corner table in the courtyard beautifully landscaped with spring flowers and shrubs accompanied by the bubbling fountain. We retreated... More

My two friends and I stayed at a guest cottage (La Maison de Portail) at Le Vieux Manoir. We were captivated the moment we walked through the gates into the grounds and gorgeous gardens of Le Vieux Manoir and were not disappointed during our 3 night stay. The renovation of the cottage is beautifully done and we loved the rustic... More

My wife and I have just returned from a vacation in France. One of the highlights was our stay in Amboise at the Le Vieux Manoir. Such a beautiful property, well restored and kept by owners Gloria and Bob. From arriving to a welcoming glass of wine to a hug at our departure, we truly felt at home and comfortable... More

We had a wonderful stay at Le Vieux Manoir in the Loire Valley. The room we stayed in had just been redone and was lovely- the bed was so comfortable and everything was so clean! The American owners were so accommodating and helpful in every way- lots of good advice on how to enjoy the Loire and find good meals... More
