Very well located hotel for Palace of Versailles, literally 5-10 mins walk, lots of good restaurants around especially in the SoHo area
It’s only 2 ⭐️ so not luxurious but very clean and great for the price.
Bed and pillows very good, we had a fridge in the room but our daughter in the next room did not
There is a breakfast which is around €13 but we did not take this option so cannot comment on it.
There is a mini market just over the road, literally opposite the hotel for water / snacks etc
For parking there is a large car park 500 meters away which we used each day, it is around €24 per day but free at night so if you are out in the car during the day it’s not bad at all and compared to central Paris it’s really cheap 🤣
Overall very happy with the choice and we would come here if in the area again

If you have a car, parking must be in a parking garage that is not associated with the property. About 23€ a day. Unloading luggage in the 15 minute parking that the hotel said was by the hotel was a nightmare. Unfortunately, although it was May, with unseasonable hot 36C temps with no air conditioning in an old building a fan didn’t help overly much. Thus windows were open and street noise was significant. The bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. This is an old old building, part of its charm, but not overly well kept. Close to Versailles Chateau which can be walked. Also the RER C train is also walkable distance and takes you right into Paris.

We had a lovely stay at the Royal Hotel. The proprietors were warm, friendly and very helpful with navigating how to find different places in the area.
The rooms were nicely decorated and very clean. The bed comfortable and a spare blanket provided.
The breakfast was exceptional and the added bonus of homemade cake, jams and marmalade and great value for money.
The hotel is very well situated for the Palace, restaurants, shops and train station, all within easy walking distance.
We had a lovely stay and cannot recommend the Royal Hotel more highly.

Owners of the hotel are very nice, and we wanted to like the room very much. The room was clean, the sheets were clean and ironed, the toilet room was clean, however the bathroom (although also visibly clean) had a terrible septic smell mixed with mold smell. When I looked up, the seam along the ceiling as well as some parts of the wall had what appeared to be a black mold. The room simply needs a thorough cleaning and renovation. I will not go back to this hotel.

The Perfect Stay

This was the perfect stay, we could not have picked a better hotel in Versailles. The bedroom and bathroom were impeccably clean, the lobby was clean and cozy, the staff spoke English and were so helpful and nice. The train station is a 5 minute walk and the C train runs to Paris every 10 minutes. There are so many restaurants and patisseries in the area, the area felt very safe even at night. The palace was a 10 minute walk through a very cute park. The only thing I would have changed would be a more comfortable bed. The bed was very stiff, it was like sleeping on a stone slab with sheets. Other than that, everything was a 10/10 for us. If we make it back to France we'll be staying here again.

The hotel is well placed in the St. Louis district of Versailles with a good number of bars, restaurants and local shops nearby. Our room was comfortable, including the bed and pillows, spacious and clean. Bathroom was clean, modern with hair dryer and the shower worked fine, towels provided were of so so quality, but adequate. Also had a fridge, kettle and other facilities available to use, where required. It was much better overall than other similarly or somewhat higher priced hotels we have stayed at in Versailles before and we have already booked to stay there again!The staff were friendly. Only very minor negatives were: 11am check out, rather than 12; having to enter through a locked door with a code after 10pm (worked fine, though); the fact that the lead on the hair dryer my wife specially took with her could not reach in front of a mirror from any of the plugs in the room; very slow closing door in room (and the entry door used after 10pm), only one bedside table, but could have moved a room chair, if required.

This is the first European hotel I've stayed at in 30 years. Like pretty much all European hotels it's tiny. The toilet even more so. That being said, I loved it. Uneven spiral staircase, lift that only holds 2 people. It's so nice not being in a cookie cutter Hilton or other chain. We had a great breakfast and the proprieter served us home made marmalade. Sylvie, our propieter, was so gracious and helpful. She helped us figure out we didn't want to take the train to Paris when there was a strike and gave us a lot of insights on where to go. Wonderful host. I'd stay here again in a hot second. Also, go up the street away from Versailles palace and there are little mom and pop fruit stands and shops I didn't see till the last day.

This was an excellent hotel in a wonderful location to visit the Palace of Versailles. They said it was an 8 minute walk to the Palace and they were right. The room was lovely, the breakfasts were superb with a lovely variety of items to eat - crossaints, pain au chocolat, meats and cheeses, orange juice, tea/coffee with even a piece of home made cake. The hosts, Philippe and Sylvie, were lovely and were very welcoming - it was my birthday so had a little card and Birthday decoration in our bedroom. They also helped my husband and I get back to the airport by organising a taxi to pick us up from the hotel for our return home. Overall a wonderful birthday spent in a lovely part of France, the Palace was beautiful and the hotel was great - an unforgettable experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

We stayed at several Hotels in Europe and hands down this was the cleanest room we stayed in - the size was bigger then the other hotel rooms we stayed in and we were centrally located lots to do around us - food - entertainment - Versailles’s all just a short walk. Also we left a pair of sneakers and the front desk kept emailing us and calling to come get the shoes - we wouldn’t of realized where we left them if they wouldn’t of contacted us. The front desk staff are amazing if you go to versailles’s you have to stay at the royal everything about are stay was top notch from customer service to a comfy room.

Terrible experience. Hotel mgmt decided to inform us only 2 weeks in advance that hotel would not be able to provide luggage storage on the day we are planning to visit the Palace. It was too late of a notice to find another hotel for the same price and hotel staff was utterly unhelpful and completely unbothered about helping us find a luggage storage service. We had to spend extra 40 euros to get back to paris to store our luggage somewhere and come back to Versailles. Absolutely ruined our plans. Location of hotel is nice but rooms are in deteriorated condition. No AC for hot days, dripping showers and no noise proofing so get ready for a noisy night. Would not recommend.

Basic and Disappointing

The hotel is very basic. The room and bedding were clean but the bed not comfortable, the shower was spraying water all around, and the carpet seemed to be coming from a different era. I have asked the owner to give me a quiet room (the hotel was empty) but woke up to the sound of construction and workers at the window, If you are normally a customer of three-four stars hotels, do not make my mistake looking for a high rating of this hotel It is not worth it. It was strange to see the uninspiring supermarket bread in baskets for breakfast while this hotel is surrounded by wonderful local bakeries. It was tolerable for a night, but not again.
