Château d'Hodebert

We had the most wonderful stay at the chateau! The location, the room, the breakfast, the service were all wonderful! Ivana, the owner was the perfect hostess, greeting us and showing us around the estate. She suggested an excellent restaurant for us to have dinner on our first night and made reservations for us. She also prepared beautiful and delicious breakfasts with fresh local breads and fruit, mostly home made and sourced form the grounds of the estate The chateau is decorated with beautiful family heirlooms and antiques that are a joy to your eyes. As aficionados of antiques we truly enjoyed exploring all the wonderful nooks and crannies of the chateau. This was the end of a 2 week French vacation and was the highlight of our trip. I would definitely recommend the Chateau d’Hodebert for a lovely stay in the country!

Château D’Hodebert was our favourite place to stay when travelling in France. First of all it is absolutely brimming with French charm and beauty. The hostess Ivana is extremely warm and welcoming and full of information about the history and renovation of the chateau as well as travelling tips for visiting Chateau in the area. Because the chateau is in a beautiful country setting, you need to be prepared to drive into the closest small town (10-15 min) or to drive to Tours (about 1 hour) for dinner and supplies. However it is perfectly situated for visiting château in the area. Ivana makes a beautiful breakfast with everything organic and homemade. Ivana is a discreet hostess who endeavours to make her guests feel at home. The rooms are very spacious with great privacy. We can’t wait to visit Chateau D’Hodebert again!

We had a great stay at this chateau, it is the second time we have chosen this beautiful location and we are sure it wont be the last. The attention to detail, the character of the facility, everything is excellent. One of the best chateaux we have stayed in France. The only thing you need to be aware is that you need to plan for lunch/dinner, as I am not sure the kitchen facilities are open to the guests. It would be great if it was possible because we would have loved to have dinner in the garden.

The stay was perfect in every way. The Park Room that we stayed in was full of antiques, with stunning decor and four shuttered windows that overlooked the the estate, pond and horses, donkeys and cow. The breakfast was very special with the host's homemade marmelade, bread, yoghurt, fresh fruit and eggs from the chateau gardens, local cheeses, pastries. Amazing. Ivana was a wonderful host and was so knowledgeable about the area and local history; she goes above and beyond to make the guests happy. Thanks a fabulous 3 nights Ivana x

Our experience at Chateau Hodebert was one from fairytale. The elegance and natural beauty of the estate, paired with the absolute best host one could ask for helped to create a TRULY once in a lifetime experience for any type of guest. Ivana and her family have done an immaculate job in the preservation of the Chateau, and she does an amazing job at creating an environment for her guests and truly is unimaginable. No matter your age, location, time in your life - I could not recommend any experience more than what we have experienced at Chateau Hodebert. The Loire Valley itself is immaculate, and we somehow did not want to leave Chateau Hodebert. Do yourself a favor, and don’t miss out on this experience of a lifetime. Thank you Ivana and Chateau Hodebert for allowing others to experience such magnificent beauty. We will forever remember our stay

Of all the places in the world I have ever visited, this is far and away my #1 lodging experience. From the moment we arrived, gracious Ivana made us feel not only welcomed, but loved; and we loved her in return. The breakfast was impeccable. Our next stay will be longer.

Passionnée de châteaux, Hodebert est parfaitement situé pour rayonner et visiter les châteaux de la Loire. C'est endroit est exceptionnel ! J'ai eu la chance de séjourner dans la chambre Passiflore, spacieuse, décorée avec goût, lumineuse, et avec une vue imprenable sur la parc. Un petit déjeuner délicieux, préparé par la maitresse de maison en personne, et servi dans la salle à manger du château, Sans oublier la jolie piscine bien cachée, et les balades dans la forêt de la propriété. Un endroit vraiment unique.

Tivemos uma estadia maravilhosa!! O local é lindíssimo, onde reinam o bom gosto, o requinte, a Natureza e a tranquilidade. Ideal para descansar!! A Gîte estava muito bem decorada e perfeitamente equipada para uma família de quatro pessoas. Desfrutámos de total privacidade, ao som dos pássaros e na companhia da nova amiga canina, a Mirabelle. A belíssima Ivana é a melhor anfitriã de sempre!! Foi incansável, extraordinariamente atenciosa e sempre muito solícita aos nossos pedidos! Queremos voltar!!

Séjour exceptionnel. Le château est authentique et magnifiquement décoré. Toutes les chambres sont spacieuses et lumineuses, parfaitement bien isolées. On y trouve tout le confort moderne dans un cadre ancien. Le parc est ravissant et la piscine dans un écrin protégé. Les hôtes sont charmants. Petit déjeuner de rois avec pain maison.
