Bien dans l’ensemble.
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner est vraiment très très complet, très bon, très frais. Un vrai plaisir.
La chambre est tout à fait confortable pour DEUX personnes. La piscine et la pièce pour le sport un plus très appréciable.

Cons:

Les jeunes personnes à l’accueil ne sont pas toujours très compétentes ni très souriantes. La chambre est proposée pour 3 alors que l’espace est plutôt destiné à deux personnes. Les dîners et surtout les desserts sont moyens et ne sont pas dignes d’un 4 étoiles. Dommage.

We'll always travel via Saclay when driving to France.
Pros:

It's the perfect stop before driving to Calais to cross to the UK. It's comfortable, clean and feels safe. Leaving the car in their car park full of our stuff seemed safe too. Great facilities, loads of space in the rooms, and breakfast is great. Plus we loved the baby goats playing outside our window!

Cons:

The range of dinner menu options could be better. But it was perfectly adequate.

Nothing exceptional, just pretty average.
Pros:

Stayed for four nights as part of a coach tour. Food - breakfast and dinner was all OK by me. Standard hotel room was quiet with a comfortable bed, and the air con worked efficiently in the heatwave. Rooms probably due for an update/redecoration shortly, but clean and everything worked OK! Bar staff though not very attentive or friendly. One nice touch, in the exceptional heat, was a complimentary cardboard fan!

Pros:

We stayed at this hotel for one night before our planned visit to the Palace of Versailles. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our visit to Versailles, but we enjoyed our stay so much that we would definitely choose this hotel again next time.

The food was very good, and there were plenty of activities for both adults and children, making it a great place for families as well as couples. We had a lovely stay and would be happy to return in the future!

Intéressant juste pour la piscine en été
Pros:

Piscine
Propre
Les moutons dans le jardin
Joli jardin
Très peu de clients donc calme : difficile de juger si il y avait eu beaucoup de clients

Cons:

Clim non fonctionnelle dans la chambre … avec 35 degrés à Paris… un calvaire
Petit déjeuner de qualité très médiocre
Pain, viennoiseries, boissons … tout industriel
Peu de choix
Cela ne vaut absolument pas 20€/ personne

Will never stay again and won’t recommend to anyone
Pros:

The only good things about the hotel are the territory and the people working there. The ladies helped our kids to color, printed some pictures with them and were absolutely amazing. The outdoor territory is big and has lots of things to do (mini golf, ping pong, swimming pool etc)

Cons:

The room was dirty, we found tickets from the previous guests, the shower was stinky and the water didn’t go down, instead it was going on the floor, there was some hair in the shower, the lift didn’t work, the stairs were horrible and dirty, the toilets in reception were not cleaned. I wanted to dry my hair with a hairdryer and it burnt in my hands, I was really scared. I went to the reception and asked for another one. The guy gave me one, I went to my room and there was no electricity. I came back to the reception again and he advised to dry my hair in the toilet in the reception. There was no electricity either. In the end I had to dry my hair in the middle of reception on the floor in front of the people who were going for breakfast. Absolutely disgusting. The breakfast was poor, cold eggs, sausages, we were hungry.
