Hotel Le Bout du Parc de Versailles

The hotel itself was lovely. However, there are a couple things to be aware of. We made the reservation the day before we got there. We rented a chalet but when we got there it turned out the chalet was not a good fit for our family so they moved us to a superior room with terrace in the hotel. On their website these rooms are less expensive than the chalets. I checked these rooms on the day we made the reservation, the day we arrived and the day we checked out. Every time, the price was lower than the chalet. However, they charged us the chalet price and claimed that on the day we checked in, the superior rooms were more expensive and that rates change. Apparently, their room rates are as volatile as the stock markets and room rates change throughout the day. We also paid €24 extra for breakfast to be included. What did that €24 get us? Coffee, juice, croissants, white bread and plain yogurt. There was not even a hard boiled egg as a protein source. We had to order eggs and that was an additional €18 for two orders of eggs, each oh which consisted of two eggs, a small bit of soft cheese and a few slices of avocado. In the 21 countries I’ve had breakfast in, I thought the U.S. had the worst hotel breakfasts by far. But this hotel set a new low. At least in the U.S. one gets at a hard boiled egg if not scrambled eggs. For a country that arrogantly pounds its chest about their food quality, the food at breakfast was lacking. I probably wouldn’t mind the high prices had the croissants been outstanding or the eggs I ordered mind blowing. But, I’ve had the most delicious croissant in my life at a place called Essence in, of all places, the U.S. (Phoenix, AZ to be exact). I’ve also had the best eggs there as well. I’m not sure how one is to supposed to be excited, or full, on only white bread products for breakfast, especially at the outrageous prices charged for mediocre products. Based on their every pricing model (or scam) and their breakfast prices, I do not recommend this hotel.

Chalet parfait pour nous 3 . Au calme et avec bonne literie. Restauration sur place bonne et faite maison. Parking possible dans la rue ou parking fermé à l’hôtel . Emplacement au calme avec proximité du château en voiture et arrêt du tramway en face de l’hôtel .
