We had an absolutely extraordinary stay at the Prieure D'Orchaise. Do yourself a favor and book this property before the rest of the world finds out about it. Our family was looking for a unique stay in the Loire valley region that was within driving distance of the various chateaux. We initially booked the Prieure because it sort of looked like a castle and we thought the kids would enjoy the stay. Not only did we enjoy ourselves, but we will almost certainly return! The room was superb, the breakfast exceptional, and the grounds inviting. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed playing with the hunting dog and had a fantastic time looking at the various treasures in the Prieure (the pirate chest was a favorite). The host is incredibly friendly and entertained us with a variety of stories about the Prieure and the family's history. The host was also kind enough to walk us to the village bakery one morning. The Prieure is conveniently located about 20 minutes from Blois and about 45 minutes from Castle Chenonceau and Castle Chambord. By vehicle it is approximately 2 hours from Paris Orly airport. I can't say enough good things about the Prieure D'Orchaise. Just extraordinary hospitality and exceptional accommodations. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. We are eager to return!

I hesitate to write because I don't have the words to properly share what a wonderful experience it was to stay at Le Prieure d'Orchaise. We met friends there and Antoine and his lovely wife were so welcoming. They shared so much information about the history of the area and the history of the priory. They did an excellent job recommending restaurants for us to enjoy. The gardens are beautiful. Such a peaceful place to stay. We will return.

Beautiful, Authentic, Enchanting Stay
We stayed for almost a week in August (two adults, two teens). We had been intrigued by the very strong reviews and scores and the photos looked beautiful. It was our first time in the Loire Valley. I must say, the highly positive reviews were exactly correct. We travel a considerable amount all over the world and this was, hands down, our best stay anywhere. The property is inspiring. The garden is a clearly a labor of love. My wife and I walked throughout it most evenings with a glass of wine. Just stunning and genuinely uplifting. Our two rooms were what we envisioned as quintessential Loire Valley, spacious, immaculately clean, and very comfortable in a classic French style. The house was stunning, beautifully updated and maintained. Again, genuinely inspiring. Breakfast was not only filling and tasty but full of wonderful conversation and people met each morning. Last but not least, our hosts, Antoine and Anne-Marie are absolute gems of human beings. Their generosity and helpfulness is only matched by their passion for and dedication to the Prieure resulting in an incredibly authentic experience for us. This stay has raised our expectations of what is possible. I have always heard of stays that change your perspective but this was the first stay of this magnitude for my family and I. Thank you Antoine and Anne-Marie. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

5 Star Property
This was absolutely the finest chambres d'hôtes we have ever visited. A luxury oasis behind gates tucked away in the Loire valley. The owner is exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, and everyone there strives to provide a 5 star experience. The owner speaks French, English and Spanish fluently, having previously lived all over the world. There is A/C that blows very cold in the rooms, amazing grounds with insane gardens, eggs for breakfast from their own chickens, a huge jacuzzi spa, free bicycles that are brand new, amazing, deluxe fresh breakfasts, and on and on and on. The owner truly strives to makes this as nice as a stay in a 5 star hotel. Truly the best stay we have ever had (in any country) outside of an Aman hotel or the Royal Overwater Bungalow at the Conrad Bora Bora Nui. Excellent bang for the buck. Cannot recommend this enough.

Can't Wait to Return!
I can't say enough good things about this property! We absolutely loved our stay. We've already recommended it to friends and family; we can't wait to go back again. The home and garden are beautiful and comfortable - the linens were some of the softest I've had at any hotel! They were very accommodating of our baby - they set up a pack-n-play for her to sleep in and a high chair for breakfast. The breakfast spread had lots of options, all of them delicious. Antoine is such a great host. Having breakfast with him each morning and hearing his stories was a delight. He gave us recommendations of things to do in the area and set up reservations at amazing restaurants nearby. Overall this place and this family made us feel at home.

Place to stay again!
One of the best staying during the last 2-3 years. It’s a museum but a very cozy one. The parts that have been renovated were fine with very good quality and excellent taste (nothing “screaming” and “too much”). Plenty of original furniture and objects, the new ones are of remarkable quality. The service was great. COVID measures are in place and you feel safe. The host is knowledgeable, helpful, warm and simply a very interesting person to talk with. No pressure with time. Definitely we will try to visit again: much to see around the area!
