CHÂTEAU D'ARTIGNY * * * * *
Castle with French garden in Montbazon offering elegant and comfortable rooms with view on the park.
Built by the perfumer Coty, the Château d'Artigny is a prestigious place! 25 hectares of parkland, a French garden, marble and woodwork... The rooms are elegant, comfortable, and offer a view of the castle, the park or the Indre and its green valley. On the agenda: relaxation, sport, well-being, or a cocktail at the bar. Finally, l'Origan offers cuisine inspired by local and world flavours. The pluses: the workshops of the chef Hervé Guttin and the tasting sessions in the cellars with the sommeliers. A wonderful place!

Le restaurant y est délicieux. La cuisine est raffinée et fine.
Petits déjeuner peuvent faire office de brunch. Jus d'orange pressé
L'espace-detente est cosy avec piscine chauffée 33°, un vrai moment de détente.
저녁,아침 포함하여 (방도 업그레이드) 좀 부담되는 가격이었으나, 프랑스물가 생각하면 저렴하더군요. 저녁식사할 때 유쾌한 소믈리에 분도 좋았고(45유로 와인 한병 주문), 식사에 포함된 샴페인과 커피도 맜있었어요(gormet 패키지에는 고기요리가 아니라 치킨 혹은 피시요리 임은 알고 계시길..). 격식있는 서비스도 좋았어요. 4성급에 손색없는 숙소 어메니티, 조용한 정원...
보르도에서 샤또라고 주장하는 곳에서 하루 더 잤는데, 거의 고급 민박 수준이었어요. 아르티니가 제대로 된 샤토였음을 알게 되었습니다.
The service was not at all five-star. When we arrived at 1 am the gentleman working the reception seemed to be confused as to who we were and whether we had a reservation. The place is not big, I can't imagine he was waiting for numerous guests to check in that late/early. During check-in there was no mention of needing to make reservations for dining at the chateau.
The next morning at breakfast we were greeting and welcomed to the chateau but, again, no mention of needing to make a reservation for lunch or dinner.
When we went to the restaurant to eat, we were told there was no room and that we'd need a reservation. But we could order room service which had two mains - a ham and cheese sandwich and a pesto pasta dish. We ate these for three meals in a row because the hotel could not accommodate us in the restaurant. It was shocking! There were numerous ways to avoid this but the hotel did none of them - reach out to us prior to arrival to secure our booking, ask when we checked in, add a table to the dining area for guests of the hotel, open up the additional, unused dining area, book another restaurant and transportation for us, etc. How is it that a hotel cannot accommodate its guests for the meals? No matter how you see it, telling a guest that they can order room service for three meals in a row because you cannot accommodate them is not five-star service.
We were also incredibly disappointed in the bar. This is a hotel in the middle of the Loire Valley, how does this bar not have more selections for wine from the region? There were only 6-8 wines / sparkling to choose from. And we regularly had to chase down someone to help us in the bar. Again, hardly five-star service.
We were booked into this hotel via a tour agency. Don't make the same mistake we did and just accept it. Ask your agency to find another place.
And, finally, read through the other reviews of this hotel. Notice how the hotel responds to the negative reviews. That is a perfect indicator of the "five-star" service you'll receive.
