Halfway between Paris and Brittany, in the magnificent Loire region, the 500-year-old, privately owned Château de St. Paterne boasts an intriguing past. With just eight guestrooms, this former rendezvous of King Henry IV blends the feel of a private residence with the comforts of an elegant boutique hotel. Period furnishings add to the splendor, while genteel activities integrate you into the exclusive world of castle living.

What a delightful stay at this charming chateau. Segolene and the staff can't do more to make the stay better, even accomodating our puppies. Dinner was outstanding and continental breakfast was absolutely delicious.

The Chateau is quite beautiful but this is no luxurious stay. Despite it's price, one might have not expected a sachet of Maxwell House for the room coffee choice and an inaccessible plug socket. I have seen the owner defend any criticisms by declaring the property as 15th century but really that's a poor excuse for not updating the mod cons. The house is seeking to impress but with tired everything, is falling short. The bathrooms are tired and our room was very underwhelming. As a pit stop, it would do but it is comparatively very expensive and really not a destination hotel. Certainly not the Mr and Mrs Smith standard we have been used to. The staff that we met were charming and hard working but the marketing photos are either dated or clever and we were not that taken with it. We wouldn't rush back.

A charming, relaxed and slightly quirky place to stay. We were in the datcha which was fun. Segolene and Charles Henry were perfect hosts and made many suggestions of local places to visit during our stay. The Perche region is beautiful and still relatively unknown. Dinners in the atmospheric dining room were very good, and it is always nice to be offered second helpings! Breakfast was also good with a wide selection of pastries, fruit, cheese and cereals. The Chateau feels less like a hotel and is more similar to a private house - with an honesty bar

What a hidden gem! Just returned after an offsite meeting. We occupied 95% of the rooms and everything was perfect. Great job by Segolene and her team, even meeting the dietary and food allergy restrictions . Accommodations, food, drinks, meeting rooms all top notch. A truly unique experience, executed flawlessly by this establishment. Thank you!

Another excellent stay at the always luxurious Chateau St Paterne. We were returning from holiday, in which one of us had had an unfortunate accident a few days before. The owners and staff could not have been more helpful and considerate in their hospitable service to us.
