We have stayed at Ermenonville many times over the past 20 years when we have wanted to give ourselves a special treat. The property is truly exceptional. If you have read a little about the history of the Chateau you can feel this history oozing from every room and every stone. And it is wonderful, eating a splendid breakfast while gazing out over the moat and lake, picturing all that has happened there in the past. Bed linen is top quality, rooms have been upgraded as well as you could hope, bearing in mind the age of the building and some rooms have been given a very special makeover, with fabric covered walls in respect for the building's history. Service and staff are excellent. An exceptional place to stay. We will be back!!

The staff was very attentive and kind. I arrived 3 hours early for check exhausted from a transatlantic flight. They offered me coffee and tea and made a room available for me well ahead of check in. Breakfast was amazing, with honey collected from their own beehives, tasting of the intoxicating aromas of the morning’s walk. Most foods were either made in house or from local artisans and cultivators. The space was tranquil and the views incredible. It’s a highly recommended stay, especially Fridays and Saturdays when their chefs prepare dinner with hyper local items on the menu.

My wife and I were initially very disappointed with the hotel, but the General Manager Mark solved our problem.

The hotel has been undergoing major refurbishment for many months. The first room we were shown had the character of a building site and was extremely disappointing for a 250 euro a night price. The General Manager Mark allowed us to stay in one of the hotel's best suites which was extremely pleasant. He also gave my wife a complementary dinner at the hotel as compensation for our initial disillusionment. He was very professional and kind in turning the situation around for us.

This Chateau is a wonderful historical place! Beautiful castle with a lake and a park with swans and ducks. History of Chateau is connected with such names as Bugatti and Jean-Jacque Rousseau. All rooms of the hotel are historical and different. The hotel is not totally renovated, so you will experience a real charm and history. But bathrooms and beds are new and are comfortable. Everything is clean. Breakfast with totally homemade farmed products is wonderful! Overall is a good value for money! If you arrive with the car it’s perfect location comparing to overpriced hotels of Paris. No parking problems and convenient location from airport and business Expo areas makes it perfect.

Nothing.

The staff is exceptionally helpful, accommodating, and very personable yet professional. The dining experience overall was outstanding with unique gourmet meals which were exquisite. In addition, the breakfast had a broad selection of delicious high quality protein and carbohydrate items to fit anyone's dietary needs. The hotel grounds are park like and the serenity of the area is wonderful. All of that combined with the history of the chateau made it a lovely relaxing experience.

Excellent surroundings with a park and water body around. Greenery pretty much in the entire vicinity. Close to historical sites such as Abbaye de Chaalis, Senlis, Chantilly, sentier des écrivains.. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast spread. Very good dinner menu.

My room smelled a bit "humid". May be because of the brass plumbing etc.

Fantastic 18th century chateau at a beautiful location. You feel the history in and outside the chateau. The restaurant serves delicous food and the breakfast is pretty good too, with some home made foods.

Rooms are ok, although our room on the 2nd floor was a bit warm. So we just opened the windows to get the cool night air breeze in. Dinner was very good but somewhat overpriced.

The surroundings of this old castle is beautiful and romantic. You can also choose to row a boat out and the scenery is astounding. The premises is great for a walk with ducks roaming. There is ample free parking at the entry gate, you can drive by the reception to drop off luggage, and park back at the gate. The gate helps to keep the property private. Elevator available too, so no issues for heavy luggage. Didn't eat at the restaurants within the chateau so I cannot comment. Just outside the gate of the chateau, had really delicious meals. For myself who values ambience and surroundings, the stay was for me a very good experience and a nice romantic closure to my 17-day France trip.

It didn't bother me, but there is no air conditioning (old castle), so some guests complain and needed multiple fans. I suppose it very depends which season you are visiting the area and at what temperature is considered comfortable (eg. for some travelers, t-shirt weather is 12 degrees, for others from south-east asia, comfortable will be 22 degrees or so. In terms of the furniture and room condition, indeed somewhat dated, but it is always be a dilemma how to and how much to renovate while retaining the feel and soul of a real castle. So, I actually empathize reception staff who have to deal with complaints on lack of air conditioning or facilities...

A magical place in the heart of wonderful nature, half an hour away from the Paris airport, a team that went above and beyond to help with everything we asked for, rooms on the first and second floor are large and comfortable (third floor rooms are very small!)

The initial double room offered to us on the third floor was very roomy! There are no air conditioners in the place because the building is intended for preservation and installation of air conditioners is prohibited, it was very hot at night and you cannot open a window because there is no net, the rooms also do not have a proper fan

The property, its history and architecture is unbelievable and very peaceful. The service was fantastic. The staff and front desk people were very polite and helpful. Food was amazing and freshly made from scratch, even desserts. Breakfast was delicious with fresh bread and honey from the castle hives and we enjoyed it by the window with amazing views.
