The hotel is amazing for families. There is a swimming pool, mini golf, football, petanque and a small climbing frame outside. Inside there are lots of wooden table top games to play as well as table football - all free. My girls (9 & 11) absolutely loved it. It was an overnight stop for us but we spent the afternoon at the hotel and had a brilliant time. The restaurant was also great. I would highly recommend staying here.

A fantastic stay at Novotel!
We are a family with two kids, we stayed in the family rooom at the hotel for two nights. The room, although not very huge, was extremely clean and modern. Provided with a very comfortable king size bed and a sofa bed which was converted into two single beds. There was a large screen smart TV, a small fridge and other accessories to make tea or coffee. Toilet and the bathroom were exceptionally clean and modern. The main attraction for kids was the XBOX, football table and toys in the lobby area which was a big comfort for families. We could easily let our kids play there since they were right in front of the main hotel reception. There is also a pool, a bbq area and a table tennis outdoor, which we couldn’t use because we were there at the new year hence very cold. But in the summer the hotel will be a great place for a picnic without going out anywhere. In terms of location, the hotel is a bit outside the main Paris city, it is easily around 30-40 minutes drive from the city Centre. If you are driving then it is absolutely not a problem. There is also a RER station around 10-15 minutes drive away, where you can park your car (paid parking) and take the train to Paris. The station has line B & C there which connect you to the main city. We didn’t use then because of the ongoing train strike, train service was extremely limited. We drove to Paris without any problems, although you have to be patient with the busy traffic and busy parking spaces. Overall a fantastic stay!

Pleasant enough
Not the most exciting of locations, but we were there for a reason. Place eas pleasant enough. Lovely grounds & the pool was also useful. Shame there were no cushions on the sun lounges, made them extremely uncomfortable. Fiid was also ok. You would only stay here if you need to be in the area i suppose, as quite industrial.

No service
Arrived at the hotel late in the evening, my Uber dropped me on the street because the gate was closed. I buzzed the desk manager could not locate my reservation, would not permit to enter. It took about 10 minuets before he allowed me access to the hotel lobby. The system was updating, taking approximately another 45 minuets. No apologies, no key to my room, he escorted me. I requested the lift, he insisted the stairs were better. I had a 50 pound bag, a backpack, and another shopping bag. No offer to assist, he just walked up ahead of me with no interest of service. At the room he apologized, after I requested a late checkout, he said he would tell the day desk manager to offer breakfast free. None of his words were true! Coming down at 11:30 am, I was informed checkout was 11:00, I requested a later checkout which was granted. No free meal. When I explained the occurrence, all I received was the desk manager shrugging her shoulders and I’m sorry!

Paris stop off
We stayed for two nights to explore Paris. The gentleman on reception, I think his name was Antione, helped us find train times for going into Paris and which stations we would need to get on and off for the various attractions we wanted to visit. The facilities for children were excellent, lots to keep them busy such as table tennis, tennis courts, mini golf, table football, boules and of course the swimming pool. The rooms were very clean and shower was great. The hotel is situated out of the way so if you want the facilities to walk to this is not the hotel for you but for a base to Paris it’s great. It took us approx 15 mins to drive to the train station then another 15 to get to the Eiffel Tower. Fares on the metro are very cheap so no point in driving car into the city and paying parking charges. We spent a whole day in Paris and the car parking at the train station was only €13 so a bargain.
