We chose this Chateau for our final night in 2 months of touring France by car. I felt like a princess and my husband a prince. We adored this magnificent and genuine castle. The bathroom with its beautiful muted tones. The bed was firm yet top exceptionally comfortable. The place is near to many attractions. The perfectly manicured lawns and... More

This chateau is run by the owners and it is under-staffed and over-priced. You pay over 300 euros a night for a suite but even at that price it does not include breakfast. For an extra 20 euros per person, you get dried serial, dried fruit and dry bread. The fresh fruit was old and unappealing. No cooked breakfast, no... More

I knew that flying into Paris early and getting a car that I should seek out a place close to Paris to relax and enjoy after a long flight from the USA. I had been to Fontainebleu in 1985, my Dutch aunt drove me here and it was closed to the public then. But before returning I spent my days... More

We chose this Chateau at friends' suggestions. They said it would be unique, near to Paris, with fine dining adjacent. All proved to be true. We stayed two nights and saw quite changeable weather, and were comfortable. Our room was at the top of the Chateau, at the left as you look at the photo. There is an elevator to... More

It was not difficult to persuade our twenty-something girls to spend a weekend-even in freezing January-in this picture-perfect castle. It is a pleasure to wander the grounds, and simply soak up the atmosphere and mentally transport ourselves back a few centuries. We really enjoyed th epersonal touches in the rooms, such as the family photos of Count Guy's wedding and... More

Beautiful, welcoming and calm. Tastefully renovated without having given up the old style and atmosphere. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. The reality lived up to expectations, after reading the website and looking at pictures. The castle was on the edge of a beautiful little village and there were many nice places to visit, just a short... More

The Chateau de Bourron is less than an hour by train from Paris through Fontainebleau, in a very picturesque country town. We arrived by train in September 2011 (this review is dated Dec. 2011 only because the website doesn't accept the earlier date). We walked about half a kilometer to the Chateau gate. Our room was in one corner of... More

Staying in a French Chateau was meant to be a birthday treat and highlight of our recent trip. While there are many good points about this Chateau as it is very old and beautiful, with classic, elegant French architecture, in service or sense of luxury terms it does not compare well to a 5 star Paris, or London hotel –...

we spent 2 nights here with friends. a lovely setting but real practical drawbacks..........the building is 300-400 years old and shows it.[the carpeting in the corridors has been taken up and there was one broken window in the corridor outside our room that had been taped over with paper, unsuccessfully ]..while the rooms are attractively decorated, the lighting for reading...
