Le Choiseul

Conveniently placed for visiting the châteaux of the Loire Valley

Three 16th and 18th-century houses nestle together by the River Loire at the foot of the ramparts of Amboise Castle. Enclosed in Italian-style gardens, that skirt troglodyte caves, Le Choiseul promises an historical experience in an exceptional location.

A blend of period architecture with bright floral décor in light and airy rooms creates an atmosphere of relaxation at Le Choiseul. Sit on the sunny garden terrace and enjoy the delightful gardens with a collection of original Italian sculptures.

Stroll the grounds and explore nearby Amboise and its castle. Cruise along the River Loire, visit the vineyards of the Tours region or take a chateaux tour. However you spend your time here, be sure to return for dinner in Le Choiseul’s restaurant where you can savour traditional cuisine overlooking the Loire River.
