NICE TO KNOW

The famous French raspberry liqueur - Chambord - was made in the 17th century on the occasion of King Louis XIV's visit to Chambord and served here to the royal family.

About the rooms

All rooms are contemporary decorated with large black and white photographs by Jean Grisoni referring to the surroundings and the castle. They have a view of the castle, the river Cosson, the square Saint-Louis or the forest.

Our favourite room

Deluxe Chambord is an ideal and cozy room to enjoy an unparalleled view of the castle and the surrounding countryside.

Work out and wind down

Unwind in the spa with its sauna, hammam and outdoor jacuzzi overlooking the château, or treat yourself to a relaxing massage or body treatment. Relais de Chambord is also an excellent base for walks through the surrounding woodlands and visits to the Loire Valley's renowned châteaux and wine estates. The hotel also rents bicycles, electric bikes, children's bikes and mountain bikes.

The hotel can also arrange a memorable boat trip on the Cosson. In the surrounding area, you can play tennis, go horse riding, take a 4x4 safari through the forest, enjoy a hot-air balloon or helicopter flight, or join a guided or themed walk, for example during hunting season or the deer rut. Wine tastings are also available, with no fewer than 50 different wines to sample. A visit to the Château de Chambord is, of course, highly recommended.

Ask the hotel for tickets to avoid long queues at the ticket office.
