    I guess if one travels for work in certain industrial or agricultural areas where this hotel is located, it is fine. I booked it by mistake for my travel to HEC Paris. The hotel is far from everything and requires a car.

    Breakfast was very nice. Staff was helpful. The room was good.

    Breakfast was tasty and there was a sufficient choice of food. We were pleased that the hotel restaurant accepted guests for dinner without the necessity to book a table. The hotel and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful.

    Restaurant tables for 2 people too close together so there was a lack of conversational privacy. We also had a man on the next table watching a film on his phone on full volume!

    Breakfast very poor - Staff explanation that there was a very number of guests does not justify a poor breakfast. in fact, that does not encourage me to stay again at this Novotel.

    Very good place to make a stop in your journey, enjoy the pool and visit Versailles Palace.

    The minibar fridge in the room wasn't cold. It was almost at room temperature, 24 degrees. We were travelling through France and had bought cheese that practically melted. The minigolf course needs urgent replacement, it's a wreckage. The shower in the swimmingpool was broken.

    Big comfortable bedroom and bed. Good choice of indirect lightning. The swimmingpool has a good size. Pleasant terrace area in the garden to have a drink or just to chillout. Good location if you want to visit Versailles Palace just 20min driving.

    When booking the hotel we did not realize that children to the age of 16 have free breakfast, so we booked rooms with included breakfast. The hotel manager was not able/willing to do a refund because we booked on booking.com.

    Nice rooms with everything you need for a pleasant short stay. Nice surrounding with park an pool.

    the restaurant food was terrible, something simpel but well prepared would be good enough, but this was not well prepared. again, the service was great.

    it was a nice place, with swimming pool and some activities rondo for on night. during the dinner we have been served by a very nice lady, it was great.

    seemed a little short of staff, as do most places of late. breakfast a bit pricey at 18 euro a head ( children same price)

    very family oriented, swimming, mini golf, table tennis, badminton and table football!! Nice reception area which leads onto the bar / restaurant area. terrace outside pleasant as well .

    The choices for diner were rather limited. The room I stayed needs some repairs.

    The staff is awesome. One of the ladies at the bar even took time to teach me some French. The breakfast was very good. The pool area was very good. I very much liked the countryside feel and the fact that there were a chicken cot and small crop garden was great.
