Reviews frequently describe the property as clean and modern. Breakfast is widely praised, though it can feel crowded or pricey, while restaurant experiences vary from enjoyable to poor, with reports of limited menus, overcooked dishes, closures, or being fully booked.

Un bel hôtel, au calme avec une très belle vue sur le château et à 15min du centre. Mais quel dommage de mettre tant en valeur cette si belle piscine à debordement pour ne pouvoir y mettre un pied vu la température. Un simple rideau ou bâche à bulle permettrait de gagner ces précieux sans augmenter votre facture d’électricité. Dommage

On arrival after 7 hours in the car, hugely disappointed to be told by reception (very cheerily) that the restaurant was fully booked and there was no room service. No food anywhere, even at the bar. Luckily I had a bag of crisps in the car which I managed to turn into dinner. Reception could have mentioned eg ubereats or some other options (and I should have asked). Staff at the bar were responsive despite being very overworked. Huge gash in the desk in the room, wasn’t expecting that! Room was ok although the a/c hardly functioned. They say they have a/c but I wouldn’t agree. Swimming pool nice but crowded and small. If I had realised how isolated this hotel is, I would have gone elsewhere.

Agréable séjour dans cet hôtel Novotel Amboise. Personnel disponible, accueillant et qui est à l'écoute du client. Chambre confortable et calme. Nous avons pu bénéficier de la piscine très sympa. Nous avons pris un petit-déjeuner de bon rapport qualité prix. Bref, rien à redire de négatif pour le prix payé pour une nuitée.

We stayed one night as part of a longer road trip. It was quite convenient for our needs, and the staff was friendly. The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast buffet was okay but a little picked over by the time we ate at 7:30 am as there was a tour group or two staying at the hotel as well.

For the last 2 nights I was at Novotel Amboise - and regretted choosing it. The restaurant was closed, my room faced directly onto the pool and the outdoor dining area, so no sleep before midnight. The bed was comfortable but that was about it. I had booked into the Orleans Novotel but they messaged me that they were under renovation - so the carpark, the bar, the swimming pool, the restaurant were all closed. Not sure what was left open, so moved to the other Novotel in Orleans South, miles from anywhere. A mistake - the rooms are small and dark, the place is full of noisy families - right now 4 children are using the corridor outside my room as a racetrack while the parents look on benignly and wont do anything about it. The restaurant was full of squalling children. I have cut my stay and am moving somewhere else. Avoid at all costs.

Very nice hotel with excellent facilities, pool etc. Great breakfast and good dinner menu. Our experience spoilt at dinner when the " Canette" ie duckling" arrived overdone, dry, and inedible, instead of pink and moist. Returned the dish untouched. At check-out found that the untouched, returned dish was still charged for, but with a 30% reduction. Complained, but manager defended the dish ,aggressively, saying that was how they always served the dish---badly in my opinion. Conclusion--will not eat at this hotel chain in future.
