Studio Appartment in central medieval street.

This appartment has been lovingly furnished and decorated in keeping with the medieval setting of the building. It was spotlessly clean, with a comfortable bed and a good shower. There is a great choice of restaurants within a few minutes walk but if you wish to cook for yourself the kitchen area has a combination microwave and a halogen hob. Every utensil you could need is provided along with a range of lovely crockery, a good sized fridge, a dishwasher and a coffee machine. There is also a shared outside space in the secret garden in the shelter of the cathedral. Communication with the owner, Rosemary, was very good and she provides lots of information on places to visit. As well as walking along the beautiful River Loire we really enjoyed our visits to Blois and Chambord Chateaux, the Cathedral, the Basilica and St Nicholas' church. The house of magic with its six headed dragon and magic shows is also not to be missed.

Perfect Chateau Vacation!

We had a wonderful seven night stay recently in Châtel Rose. We stayed in Blois as a base to explore the Chateaux of the Loire and felt like we were staying in our own little Chateau! The apartment is located in a historic pedestrian part of Blois, within walking distance to many bars, restaurants, shops and grocery stores. The extensive Saturday market is only a few blocks away and well worth a visit. The apartment is well decorated, immaculately clean, comfortable and very well equipped. We love to cook when we travel and the kitchen did not lack for anything. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was equally well furnished with a quality shower, robes, hair towel and hair dryer. The garden is a hidden gem and was a wonderful place to enjoy a glass of rosé. Rosemary was a perfect host. She communicated from the time of booking and was very responsive anytime we had questions. She is very knowledgeable about the area and provided information on how get to Blois from Paris, as well as directions to the apartment. She also gave excellent suggestions in terms of what to see and where to eat. Rosemary met us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the apartment. She went above and beyond by driving us to the car rental agency to pick up our car when we had difficulty getting a cab. In short, we highly recommend a stay in Châtel Rose!

Wonderful Studio in heart of Historic Blois

The apartment was just as advertised - located on an old street near the heart of Blois. Everything was within easy walking distance. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Rosemary was super helpful and responsive. Check-in and check-out was easy.

Quality apartment with many amenities in historic Blois

Romantic apartment (high ceilings, chandelier, casement widows with shutters, bath robes, quality linen, very comfortable king size bed) with all that you need for a good holiday - Nespresso machine, washing machine/dryer, dishwasher, well appointed kitchen, wifi. Owner went out of her way to make sure that our stay was enjoyable and her recommendations for dining and sightseeing were invaluable and reflected her intimate knowledge of this historic city and the Loire Valley more generally. We felt safe and indulged. We would highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Rosemary Avril

I am an Australian/French semi-retired legal translator and former university lecturer living in Blois. I love art, archictecture, reading, gardening and cycling. My husband is French.

Why they chose this property

We love the fact that it is in a cobbled street in the mediaeval section of Blois, close to bars and restaurants but in a quiet part of the area. We love its high ceiling and fireplace and its little hidden garden.

What makes this property unique

We have done everything to make sure it has modern comfort in an historical French setting. Although you need to climb one and a half flights of stairs to reach the garden, it is a haven in the middle of historical centre of town.
