The hotel is conveniently located opposite the Grand Monarque and within easy walking distance of the Melun rail station with very regular trains to Paris. The rooms were clean, tidy, albeit a bit run down, but small yet comfortable providing a quiet stay. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown due to various issues in the dining room, but the selection was fair and buffet style. The hotel is near must-see chateaux Vaux Le Vicomte and Fontainebleau, enhancing its appeal for exploring the region.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although comfortable, felt a bit too small, especially with more than two guests. The cleanliness and quietness were notable positives, and the bed was cozy, with a lovely balcony view. However, the room size could be a challenge for those with more luggage.
