If you’re planning to explore the châteaux of Chenonceau and Amboise, we highly recommend this 3-star hotel, located less than a ten-minute drive away. This beautiful 16th-century mansion in the heart of the village of Bléré is run by the Guinoiseau family: Claire at the front desk, Alain in the kitchen, assisted by their two children, Candyce and Loann. It’s a beautiful, classically styled dining room where the chef puts a modern spin on French classics: poultry dome, foie gras and mushrooms, creamy celery purée, roasted sea bass, creamy fennel purée and Granny Smith apples, spring vegetables, a take on beef and carrots, pan-seared foie gras with potato waffles, and a “velours cheval blanc” with tonka beans and pan-seared seasonal fruits.
