Very strong positive sentiment — repeatedly cited as excellent and central, often described as directly opposite the Château / in the town centre, ideal for sightseeing.
Room Quality
5.8
Mixed-to-negative: several mentions of very small rooms and tiny bathrooms, few power sockets, thin walls with noise from neighbours/hallway, and many stairs. Some rooms noted as cosy/modern, but overall room quality is a clear area of weakness.

The room was comfortable, warm with a cosy double bed. The hotel us just in front of the Chateau Fon
Pros:

Location is amazing, just in front of the Chateau Fontainebleau. The room was small, but comfortable. Cosy double-bed. It was warm in the room, which is essential for me.

Cons:

I could hear people walking up and down the stairs clearly. It was making some noise.

Nice convenient, comfortable and safe hotel. Room soundproofing is terrible.
Pros:

Room style was really modern and cool with a nice balcony. Staff were nice. Location was really good and safe - easy to help explore the left bank and plenty of restaurants near by.

Cons:

The room walls are paper thin. I can hear the conversation in the room next to me and that doesn't help when they wake up at 5:30am and talk for 90 mins before departing. You can literally hear any conversations and footsteps in the hallway too.

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.
