“Le Choiseul has a singular charm; the historically significant residences, some dating to the 15th century, sit very close to Amboise's town center. I particularly appreciate the onsite restaurant's creative approach to seasonal fare, and the terrace access afforded by certain rooms, which look out over the gardens. This is a very fine place to stay.”
