Le Clos d'Amboise
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Le Clos d'Amboise is worth booking if you want a central, quiet 4-star in Amboise with a pool, a garden and free parking, at a price close to the local median. Skip it if you want the cheapest room in town or plan to eat breakfast at the hotel every day without checking the cost.

This is our Best Value pick in Amboise. It fits couples and families who want to walk to the castle, shops and restaurants, then come back to a garden, a terrace and a pool. Free parking makes it practical if you are touring the Loire by car.
It is not the cheapest option. If you only need a clean bed for a night, our Budget pick costs about half as much. And if breakfast is part of your daily routine, note that guests find the breakfast charge high.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at 27 rue Rabelais. Guests rate the location 9.6 out of 10 and describe it as central and quiet, with the castle, shops and restaurants within walking distance.
The only nearby sight in our data is Valmer Castle, 8.9 km away and about 111 minutes on foot as a straight-line estimate. That is far: you will need a car, a taxi or public transport. Distances have not been verified on the ground.
What guests say
Le Clos d'Amboise scores 9.0 out of 10 from 662 reviews. On review score it was joint 2nd of 6 eligible properties in the provider sample.
Two points stand out. The location is central yet calm. Staff are friendly and professional, with a warm welcome and useful local advice.
The main complaint is about money. Guests consider room prices reasonable but think the breakfast charge is high. Check whether your rate includes breakfast and, if not, what it costs.
Price and what you get against our other two picks
Reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov, 2 adults, one room) were €182.10 per night, a little above the sample median of €171.85. These are not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
For that you get a 4-star hotel with a pool, a restaurant, free parking, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace, as listed by the property.
Our Budget pick, Hôtel Le Blason, is a 2-star with 8.2 at €95.80 per night. Our Luxury pick, Relais d'Amboise - The Leading Hotels of the World, is a 5-star with 8.8 at €246.28 per night. Le Clos d'Amboise scores higher than both, which is why it sits in the middle as the value choice.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 6 hotels in Amboise. Our Best Value pick balances guest score, number of reviews and reference price; it is not meant to be the cheapest. A 9.0 from 662 reviews at a price near the median, plus a pool and free parking, made this the strongest balance in town.
Before you book
Room size, noise, renovation condition, breakfast inclusion and cancellation terms have not been assessed. Check each one on your rate.
The pool is listed, but opening dates and times are not confirmed, which matters for a November trip. A spa and pet-friendliness appear in the hotel's tags but are not confirmed in the facility list, so ask the hotel directly about both.
