Quiet scenic location. Helpful staff. Nice rooms. Excellent breakfast. Who knew blueberry juice was so good? Not as kid friendly as other hotels we normally stay in. Access to pool was expensive and limited for kids.
I was almost all positive about the stay except for the fragrance dispenser in the lobby and part of the entrance to the rooms. The sellers of these items have no idea to make it comfortable for staff and also guests. This kept me form having dinner in the restaurant. Just a suggestion for the manager look for a distinguished fragrance which is not synthetic and having it dosed as comfortable. Location and stay were good.
With our stay we had some issues with our airconditioning in our rooms. I went to an employe named guillaume. I adressed the issue to him and without question he wanted to help. He even upgraded our room! He gave us such a nice room and was so friendly he really made our stay perfect!
The location was amazing and the breakfast was really good!
Once again I want to thank guillaume for an amazing service. I will deffenitly come back!

Great setting and nice environment. Main building, old castle is nice and worth a 5 star. Breakfast has lots of options and is very good.
Room was of good size, bathroom too small overall and small shower and I'm a thin person. There was heavy noise late in the evening because of the stairs next to our room. The spa seems nice on pictures, but it is tiny and windows can use a some cleaning. The hallways in the extension of the castle where the rooms are, can use better finishing or a refresh. It does not meet 5 stars at all.
I had a great experience at this luxury hotel. The hotel helped me getting flowers to the room. For my wifes 30th birthday.
Augustin was really good he helped my and gave top level service. Because of him my stay was perfect !

Location and common dining areas were good.Giving it an Average rating - could have been excellent f the hallway carpets did not look dated. Further when booking a cab - we were given some pushy drivers trying to charge us the same price as big lux car and actually driving us in a small car. Had to speak to reception again to sort it out. some Food ran out at breakfast with no refill for 30 minutes had leave and had a lovely little hair in the scrambled eggs - we joked it was Vitamin H. Did not bother showing it to the staff - what would they do besides apologise.

My Review
Despite its 5-star rating, my recent stay at Hotel Martin Chatou left much to be desired, aligning more closely with what one might expect from a 3-star establishment.
Service: The service at Hotel Martin Chatou unfortunately did not meet the high standards one would anticipate from a hotel of its purported caliber. Interactions often felt lackluster, lacking the attentiveness and detail-oriented approach synonymous with luxury accommodations.
Breakfast: The breakfast offering was another area where the hotel did not live up to expectations. The variety and quality of food did not reflect the 5-star experience, with options feeling limited and somewhat uninspired.
Room Quality: The room itself, while adequately furnished, fell short of the comfort and luxury one looks forward to in such a reputed hotel. The aesthetic and amenities provided did not match up to the usual 5-star room experience, with elements of wear and a need for refreshment apparent.
Comfort and Cleanliness: On the front of comfort and cleanliness, there again was room for improvement. The overall cleanliness did not reach the meticulous standard expected, and the comfort level of the lodging experience was underwhelming. This detracted from the overall sense of luxury and relaxation that should define a stay at a hotel of this standing.
In conclusion, while Hotel Martin Chatou boasts a 5-star rating, my experience suggests that the services, amenities, and overall guest experience align more to 3 star
Breakfast is normally excellent but on Sunday choice was great but the hot food was only warm at 0845.
No bar on Sunday evening.
Constant hum with airco off. Fantastic decor, lovely staff and amazing lakeside location.

The AC in the room did not work properly. The Internet Wi-Fi were intermittent and slow.
In my opinion this is not a true 5 star hotel., 4 star is more appropriate for it. The rooms are average, the breakfast is nice. There is a spa in the hotel, but it's not included and it's only an Extra. Description says free parking- they mean you should look for a parking near the hotel. The hotel has no designated parking. The shower in the tub is not holding itself in place, you have to hold it. Everyday had to go back to reception to get the key card coded again. Many small things are not working properly!!! This is why they don't deserve to be 5 star hotel.
