This hotel, an 18th century manor in typical French style, was built next to
the Château
Royal d'Amboise, on the foundations of the mediaeval Minimes Monastery. Comprised
of 14 bedrooms, the hotel looks out towards the old château and the Loire
river. It is also not far from the centre of the little town of Amboise.
Many guests use this as a starting point for exploring what the gigantic Loire
valley has to offer, before returning home to the understated good looks of the
hotel.
There is a satisfyingly clean design to many of the rooms, the bathrooms being particularly well-designed and spacious too, sometimes juxtaposed nicely with the heavy wooden structure of the original manor building, reminding guests that not only are they getting a contemporary clean style, but they are right in old Pays-de-la-Loire. There are also rooms in the Pavilion.
Various well-known châteaux are within close proximity, and Amboise is also a good central location for visiting vineyards.
Restaurant:
The manor does not have its own restaurant, but this does not pose a problem, its hosts being well-versed in informing guests of local recommendations.Hotel Amenities:

What We Say:
Manoir les Minimes is refined without being pretentious. Although located on the edge of the "Centre" administrative region, the Loire river flows right by the hotel, making Manoir les Minimes clearly a part of the Loire geographic region.From the Guestbook:
"Location, beauty, service, quiet ,clean and value are all there. Our room on the first floor was huge and beautiful and yes looked over the river, the Chateau Amboise and the beautiful little town."
"It was wonderful. Very luxurious and romantic setting overlooking both the Loire river and the Amboise Castle. The staff was friendly and spoke great English."
