The grounds are phenomenal. The views from our room were magical as was the entire property. It is an experience as much as a stay. You are surrounded by beauty and history. The pride of ownership and love of their estate shines through. It is like you are given the keys to your own castle! We rode bikes that they provided around the private estate and into the little village for breakfast the next morning. It was one of our favorite stays on our three week long trip. We stayed in more than 10 Hotels and Chateau’s during this trip and it was definitely a chart topper. The bed was super comfy the room large and well equipped gorgeously decorated and immaculately clean.

We stay mostly at high-end, 5-star properties when traveling. We were so happy to find this property on our way from Paris to Lyon, convenient to A6. The owner clearly has pride of place and pays attention to details. Our rooms (beds) were very comfortable and we enjoyed our stroll along the property.

Lovely grounds, beautiful room, attentive staff - all set in a charming French town. We enjoyed each moment.

Chateau de Bourron is a lovely property within easy driving distance of charming villages, restaurants, local shops, and of course, Fontainebleau Chateau. The castle hotel is charming, warm, and inviting, and so quiet, it’s as if you’re miles from anywhere. We had a wonderful week of enjoying the countryside and returning to a fabulous castle hotel with all the comforts of home. Highly recommend for couples, families, and special occasions!!

A basic room without amenities of modern hotel you pay extra for proximity wa nice old mansion surrounded by a moat. The omnipresent pictures of the owners and their family I found annoying and disquieting as one feels like you’re intruding into their personal spaces. The pictures should be put in their personal spaces where they belong.

This breathtaking property is something that must be experienced on your trip to Paris. It is an easy train ride with a stop in Burron 900m from the front gate. The property is over 100 acres, with quiet paths and undiscovered statues, complete with bikes to traverse the many paths.

The Chateau itself is steeped with history, with high ceilings and antique style accoutrements.

We stayed in the D'Artangan House, which was the historical fruit house, which opened up to a patio fronting the forest.

There is a Nordic bath that is highly recommended, extremely private and can be reserved with the wonderful proprietors, Count Guy and Countess Estrella.

I could say more but you may discover it for yourself. (Including a Michelin starred Chef!)

Highly highly recommended!

A wonderful weekend stay at Chateau de Bourron. Our hosts made us feel very welcome at their wonderful family run property. We very much enjoyed staying in a grand room and exploring the hidden treasures in the grounds of the estate. We also met the owner/chef of the Michelin starred restaurant located in the old estate stables, and dining at ‘Les Premices’ was a marvellous gastronomic experience. Located just 10 minutes from Fontainebleau, this was an excellent experience and is highly recommended.

After staying at many enjoyable, but somewhat quirky places during our road-trip from Burgundy to Paris, Chateau de Bourron was a welcomed place of luxury to rest our weary bodies. You cannot help but feel like royalty when you enter the circle drive of this impressive, historical chateaux. We stayed on the 3rd floor in the 'Chambre Petit Roi De Rome' which was so pretty with its red toile wallpaper, large bathroom, and view of the front laws. The breakfast area was lovely and offered plenty to eat. This is a surcharge. I only wish we had had more time to explore the forest. A good reason to come back! I highly recommend Chateau de Bourron. Make sure you contact them on the day of your arrival so they can explain how to buzz in at the gate when you arrive.

This historic chateau near Fontainebleu is a family owned labor of love. The count's well-written ( in english too!) history of the chateau is but one lovely touch that makes a stay here memorable. The rooms are clean, beautifully appointed, and very quiet. Huge and comfortable bed, absolutely delicious breakfast of croissants, excellent bread, jams, cheeses, fruit, yogurt, a nespresso machine... and family to check and ensure \"do you have everything you need \". This is a more than first class, well located and special place from which to explore the ile de France. And cuisine from bistro to gastro nearby!

Lovely Chateau Living

The exterior and grandiose driveway as well as the surroundings are something to behold at this charming chateau just south of Paris. We loved our stay there, and had a room on the third floor with a lovely view of the front of the property. The hotel is run by a family that lives in the chateau full time, so there is a true B&B feel to the place, thus it is not really a hotel (no 24hr service of any kind, etc). The location is of course great, just outside of Paris and right at the edge of town so you can walk to go eat, which is what we did for dinner. The parking is free and has a huge lot off to the side, free of charge. Getting in the gate to the compound took some time for people to answer and open it however. The grounds are gorgeous and a treasure to walk around, especially in the early AM. We checked out so early that we woke up the manager and owner, but he was very nice. Sadly we only stayed one night, but it was definitely an experience...not for those who are over demanding. Again, it really is a B&B and you are left on your own for almost everything. There is a teeny tiny elevator that can barely fit one person and luggage so good luck transporting all your belongings. The bed was quite stiff and the room was rather cold, but we were in the attic and it had a rustic type feel that made it a true chateau experience. I would say it is much more appealing from the outside looking in than the opposite, but it was a very good price for what you get. Great for pics!

Chateau \"Boring\"

The Château Bourron is at first view, very impressive visually, the approach from the gated entrance to the house is like a fairy tale. The traditional french garden in front of the château though pleasing is not well maintained and lacks in plantings. The garden though traditional, is austere. There is no terrace or place to enjoy a drink while appreciating the beautiful surroundings. Though this property is pretty, and the management were pleasant, there is very little guest hospitality. Apart from the guest rooms, and 2 very small common rooms, there is no place to sit and relax. The rooms were clean and comfortable. It's just that this place is dead-quiet. You have the impression you are staying in a museum rather than a hotel. I have stayed at similar proporties in France where the management has done a better job at creating an atmosphere that is convivial and alive, while respecting the history of the property in it's decoration and presentation. A little conversation and a welcome drink would greatly improve things. On a scale of 1 to 10 I give Château Bourron a \"petit\" 5.

Authentic chateau with modern comfort

This hotel was a very nice surprise, better than its reviews led me to expect. Gorgeous, authentic, and comfortable.

We spent one night here after a long flight from the US to Paris, en route to Switzerland by car. The first nice surprise was check in. We arrived three hours early, dead on our feet after a turbulent transatlantic flight with no sleep. The owner greeted us, helped us with our luggage to our beautifully furnished room, and we immediately took to the bed, which was clad in good linens. When we awoke for dinner, the shower was another pleasant surprise: freshly renovated, large, good plumbing, and good water pressure.

The grounds of the hotel are charming; well maintained without being overdone. Orange trees in planters lining the front of the chateau predate the French revolution. A huge sycamore tree looks old enough to have been in the revolution, too.

The owner, Comte Guy de Cordon, runs the hotel himself and oversees the maintenance of the property. While dining at the restaurant on the chateau grounds, we saw him watering some newly planted fruit trees as darkness fell, about 10:30 p.m. Perhaps because of his personal involvement, our stay at this hotel was what we imagined guests of a working chateau might have experienced centuries ago. It was tranquil, beautiful, and refreshing. We look forward to coming back when we can stay longer.

I actually booked this as a second stop after Versailles, thinking nothing could compare to staying right next to the palace. However, I immediately fell in love with Chateau de Bourron. If you've ever wanted to pretend to be French aristocracy, then definitely stay here. It really feels like you are living in the late 1700s, well with an amazing bathtub! Make sure to walk around the chateau at night. Absolutely one of the best places I have ever stayed!
