Very convenient, would stay there again. Friendly and helpful staff. Good value for money. Good venue to explore Fontai
Pros:

Very accommodating staff. They allowed us to leave luggage with them after checkout to about 4:00pm when we could take it elsewhere.
Breakfast was good. Lots of choice.

Cons:

Depending on the room, you may have lots of stairs and corridors. Room walls were thin. We heard next door’s conversations. But luckily our neighbours didn’t stay up late.

Séjour trop bref
Pros:

Il est des lieux qui laissent des souvenirs marquants. Notre petit séjour à l’hôtel Richelieu, à deux pas du château de Fontainebleau et du centre-ville, restera longtemps dans nos mémoires.

Un ailleurs où l’on se sent comme chez soi, avec un accueil des plus agréables et familiers que l’on puisse rêver dans un hôtel. N’hésitez pas à y poser vos valises : vous y serez reçus avec une gentillesse et une bienveillance qui méritent d’être soulignées.

Les petits déjeuners sont un régal pour les yeux et les papilles, un moment suspendu avant d’entreprendre sa journée.

Merci aux patrons pour ce petit intervalle si chaleureux.

Lovely room, and looked out on the castle across the street!

The breakfast was disappointing- especially the coffee! Why? Everything else was wonderful!

Pour le même prix, préférez l'ibis!
Pros:

L'emplacement est idéal, un parking payant est proche.
Literie est correcte.

Cons:

Aucun équipement dans la chambre, nous partions tôt, pas de possibilité d'avoir un café avant de partir.
Chambre est très très sommaire, des couvertures en laine hors d'âge.
Couloirs exiguës et particulièrement vieillot.. non accessible au PMR.
