| The Chateau de Noizay is a perfect example of a Chateau-Hotel, unusual in its architecture and furnishings, cosy in its size and equipped with all the convenience of a four star hotel. This elegant XVIth Century residence in the heart of the Loire Valley Castles was used as a refuge by the protestants during the Amboise conspiracy in 1560. By the end a nice wooden path, the castle appears in its Renaissance magnificence with a French garden overlooking the village of Noizay. An imposing oak staircase will take you to the second floor, this one being surrounded by the Aubusson tapestries an the bare ston walls. On one side of the entrance hall, the restaurant painted in light yellow and blue, reminds Monet colors. On the other side is an attractive library filled with precious books and a lounge with a fireplace that will warm you up against the chilled fall and winter evenings. The cheerful atmosphere of the hotel makes it perfect for relaxing holiday and romantic week-ends. Renovated a few years ago, the "Clock House" building from the XVIIth century, is situated a few meters away from the chateau and has five rooms furnished in the Chateau style.
