Château hotels can be found throughout France. They are particularly plentiful in the Loire valley, as well as in the Savoie, the Haute-Savoie and the Rhône delta. You can get more details on the establishments from Relais et Châteaux.
For the price demanded, you can expect to stay in a beautifully furnished room and enjoy meals that can be described as haute cuisine. If your budget matches a king's ransom, you can sleep on a four-poster bed in a grand suite, in some of the grandest castles in France. On the other hand, there are also château hotels housed in converted farm houses. They offer a rustic experience that is just as enjoyable, while their bill will create a much smaller dent to the bank account.
