Le Relais Louis XI Review
An Al Gore paradise—everything here is organic! From the "biological" cream and lilac paint, used to transform this medieval royal stable into a slick modern hotel, to the "biodegradable" detergents used for the tablecloths and bed linen, not forgetting the "bio-gastronomic" restaurant (even the microwave is banned). Half a mile from the village château, this picturesque hotel—built around a spacious courtyard by King Louis XI (1461-83) as an upscale lodging for horses, knights, and blacksmiths—has a rose garden. The large-windowed guest rooms manage to be both minimalistic and charming, glowing in white-on-white and chic pastel hues and set with fireplaces. The pink-walled dining room serves lunch for €19 and candlelit dinner for €39.50 (closed Tuesday-Wednesday and first two weeks in January).
