Royal Treatment in a Opulent Hotel

The purpose of a retreat, I believe, is to get away as much as possible from tormenting and stress-inducing situations. That is why whenever I'm planning to have a vacation, I want it to be as worry-free as possible. Call me a perfectionist, but I despise encountering even minor screw-ups on my travel plans. I'm not filthy rich, but sometimes, I don't mind shelling out thousands of greens if it means that I will have a satisfying experience and a great time. That's why when a good comrade of mine invited me on a trip to Amboise, France I immediately told her that we should stay in one of those magnificent chateaus that I saw over the Internet.

If you're a Cinderella or a Prince Charming wannabe, the Chateau de Pray in Amboise, France will unquestionably make you feel like blue-bloods. At least that's what I felt when I first ambled into this hotel's vestibule. Even though I was wearing saggy khaki pants and a T-shirt that time, I felt like I was caught in the fantastic Medieval era. Apart from the modern niceties like phone and Internet access, the entire room my friend and I occupied was bedecked in elegant Medieval-like decorations and furnishings. I had the best time in Amboise not only because of the extravagant accommodations the Chateau de Pray provided us, but because of the royal-like treatment we got from the cordial hotel staff.
