We stayed here from December 19-21, 2023. This is a beautiful hotel, well, really a castle! The grounds are very nice and there is even a Michelin rated restaurant located on the grounds. The rooms are big and well appointed. The staff are very helpful and friendly. This location is great as a base while exploring the nearby castles and chateaus, of which there are many. There is parking on the grounds, and also nearby places to dine and drink. One of the more unique locations we have stayed on our journeys.

The hotel is relatively remote. I booked a room for four people. There were two beds upstairs, but the ventilation was poor.

Charming French Chateau
The chateau was in the perfect location to enjoy some of the magnificent chateaus nearby. We are a family with 4 teenagers and therefore stayed in 2 rooms in the outer building for 2 nights. While both rooms were comfortable, one room had an odd smell that never went away. We ate dinner the Michelin rated restaurant located on property and the meal was superb. The pool was very clean and enjoyable.

Magnifique séjour au château de Pray Personnel charmant, que ce soit à l’accueil ou au restaurant Jolie chambre, lit très confortable, silence absolu et belle vue sur le parc ( nous étions dans la numéro 3 ). Dîner délicieux à l’Orangerie. Nous avions un menu surprise mais n’aimant pas le plat, le chef a très gentiment modifié notre menu, et il était succulent ! Certes, le service a été un peu lent, mais le personnel était adorable. Bravo et merci !

The Château is located in the quite area and we were able to relax. It is perfect as a base for Loire castle visits. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff were really nice and kind. You can feel the history of château in the public space where you see some old paintings and furnitures. The restaurant was fabulous. We really enjoed each and every dish.

Endroit sympathique, dans un château chargé d'histoire. Personnel au top, très sympa. Chambre dans l'annexe, grande avec salle de bain moderne. Restaurant étoilé correct, mais prix élevé. Le jardin doit être très sympa à la belle saison.

I highly recommend a stay at this beautiful, historic, and wonderfully staffed property. You will be staying in an ancient chateau among its stained glass, wood paneling, tapestries and historic furnishings. The staff, especially Pierre, were overwhelmingly gracious, helpful and accommodating. We stayed in the fall, so could not take full advantage of their beautiful terrace, gardens and huge pool overlooking the Loire River. We fully intend to return in a warmer month. The hotel is located ideally to explore the chateaux of the Eastern Loire. Parking is easy in their courtyard. Five stars!

There was a heatwave and our AirBnB had no a/c. We had to find a place and Chateau de Pray was a Godsend! Laura, the front desk manager, found us a room (queen for me, 4 twin beds on a loft for my two sons to pick from). The a/c was great, but so was the pool, the pool bar, and the ambiance. My only concern--and not a big one--was that dinner had to be pre-ordered and brought in, so the selection was limited (but had a Michelin star!). We ate on the terrace. Breakfast in one of the ancient rooms was fantastic, with a lot of variety and ambiance. Shout out to Laura for taking such good care of us. Modern amenities, spa bathroom with robes, really comfortable beds--it was a memorable stay.

Location molto suggestiva e comoda, a due passi da amboise. Abbiamo dormito nella dependance, camere con molto fascino, arredate nello stile dello chateau. Bella la piscina e i giardini, come la sala della colazione. Quest’ultima è l’unica nota leggermente sotto il livello del resto: non varia e non fornitissima (anche se comunque con una buona qualità). Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
