    The staff were very friends and the food was nice. The rooms were clean and we were comfortable.

    The lack of an elevator makes it difficult sometimes to climb the stairs with suitcases. The only improvements I could think of were having our own appliances in our room like an iron, kettle or cups to drink

    We booked a room for the weekend of July 18–20. The room was clean and nicely decorated, but it had no air conditioning—just a small desk fan plugged in, which wasn’t enough for the heat. It was uncomfortably hot inside. On the night of the 18th, we returned from visiting Paris around 1:20 AM, only to find the hotel’s entrance doors locked. To our surprise, the hotel did not provide magnetic key cards to open the main doors. The only key we had was a traditional metal key for our room. We rang the doorbell several times, but no one answered. We could see the reception area through the glass doors, but there was no one at the desk. The hotel is located in a wooded area, and it was very dark outside—none of the exterior lights were on, not even the ones attached to the building. We rang the bell and called the hotel phone number repeatedly for almost half an hour, but only got a pre-recorded message. Eventually, a man appeared from behind the reception area and opened the door. It was clear from his eyes that he had been sleeping. We were already upset. When we asked why the doors were locked with no staff available to open them, he (Jeremy) told us that he had every right to close the doors at night for security reasons. He was not apologetic—in fact, he was arrogant about it. But if that’s the case, why wasn’t he at the reception to open the door for guests returning late or checking in? We were two women alone in the dark, outside the hotel, while he was asleep and not doing his job. On the night of the 19th, we returned from a wedding celebration. This time, the doors were open—but again, no staff was visible in the hotel. Another guest was having an issue with their room key, and we waited with them in the lobby. Jeremy eventually showed up from behind the reception desk about 10 minutes later, again looking like he had just woken up. I would never return to this hotel.

    Property response:

    Dear Isabelle, Thank you again for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few points. Regarding the air conditioning: our hotel has never been equipped with air conditioning, and this is not advertised anywhere online. To help ensure guest comfort during warmer months, we have placed a fan in each room. Additionally, the hotel is located within a private, green estate, surrounded by trees and a forest just behind the building. This natural setting generally helps to keep the ambient temperature lower and offers a refreshing atmosphere, especially in the evenings. We understand that the heat may still have been uncomfortable during your stay, and we regret that this impacted your experience. As for the situation on the night of July 18th, please allow us to clarify: Jérémie, our night receptionist, was not asleep. He was in the kitchen located directly behind the reception area, preparing the breakfast buffet for the following morning, a task that is part of his nightly duties. We understand that his absence from the front desk may have caused concern, and we sincerely apologize for the confusion and distress this may have caused. We have since reviewed our procedures to ensure better visibility and responsiveness from our night staff, and we are committed to improving communication and guest support at all hours. Your safety and comfort are our priority, and we hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide a more pleasant and reassuring experience. Warm regards, Hotel Management Mohamed Ali REZGUI

    - Very friendly and accommodating staff, particularly the two staff members on reception when I arrived. - Quiet location. - Good breakfast selection.

    - Room could have been cleaner in some locations. - Room was quite basic, low quality but functioned. - Location doesn't have any food options for dinner and hotel is limited in what it offers. However they allowed me to eat UberEats in bar area.

    Great value and location when enroute near Paris. The hotel is near a quiet park and sport area, although very close to the motorway, its really quiet. Breakfast was buffet style but plenty to choose from, and the staff were all very pleasant and helpful. Would definitely stay again if in area. Great location for visiting Versailles

    Evening meal food was pizza/pasta but it was heated up from frozen, so better to go elsewhere if you can for dinner.

The hotel is perfectly located for a visit to Versailles and the charming Saint-Germain-en-Laye, don't forget to visit Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte after Versailles for a real immersion in history!
