Mercure Versailles Chateau

Great location!!! Perfect for going to the chatuea. About a 10 min walk to front golden gate. Clean room, nice staff. Small room, but for euporpe pretty average. No frills, just a room, tv, and a bathroom. A very large bathroom. The parking gargage I must assume is very small because it was full. But the public parking garage was a 3 min walk and was reasonally priced. About 12E over night.

I was visiting my son and the hotel was around the corner. The hotel is located on a street that leads into a quiet plaza ringed with excellent retaurants and cafes, open early to late. Another large plaza is only a two minute walk, filled daily with a great market and dozens of restaurants and French cafes. I had brunch daily in a French cafe down the street from the hotel next to the Courthouse, a truly French experience. Mercure is only a five minute walk to all stores, the train station back to Paris, and the Chateau. The whole neighborhood and city is 19th Century French, quaint and lovely. The Mercure desk staff is the friendliest and most helpful I have ever met in any hotel and I have travelled to many countries. Rooms are clean, modern, with excellent bathrooms. T.V. all in French, except CNN and BBC news. Bring a small radio if you like to rest with music, there is none. If you hate traffic noise on cobblestones, be SURE to get a room on the front side of the hotel only, the side of the hotel is a busy lane. I hate noise, but had a front room and it was no problem, day or night, the rooms have great windows. The room was a bit small for seven nights, but still quite tolerable. If you'll be in Versailles for a few nights, the hotel will work very well if you want a clean, safe hotel with a friendly, English speaking staff.

My husband who speaks great French was able to get the charges for the nonworking internet service off the bill. If you don't speak French you might have problems here.
