This was a last minute choice and we took the premium room. The hotel is beautiful, classy, and comfortable. The bed was very good, the bathroom was large and well- equipped, and the staff very accommodating and responsive. The property is located within easy walking distance of the cathedral and the old town. We ate in La Cour Brasserie (... More

This is a lovely hotel. It is in a great location for sight seeing in Chartres. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The guest rooms are nicely furnished with fabric wall coverings and real oil paintings. We did not use the spa or eat in the hotel restaurant during our stay. They have private parking a block away from... More

Last weekend we stayed at Grand Monarque. It is a traditional, stylish, cute hotel right at the edge of Chartres'old town; 5 minutes walk from the famous Cathedral. Hotel rooms are not too big, yet very comfortable (very good beds). We had two rooms: prestige and standard. The prestige room was larger, had a sofa and a bathtub with jacuzzi.... More

Fantastic mix between classic old style and new styles. Nice breakfast with good coffee. Nice restaurant with good wine. Free WIFI. Free and easy parking. I will ask for a harder bed next time. More

This is a hotel that feels older than it actually is but in a good way, very large rooms, very comfortable rooms and excellent restaurant. Close to the cathedral and in the city centre. Recommended, exceeded my expectations. More

We booked this hotel for two nights so we could visit Chartres Cathedral. Our room was on the third floor and was comfortable and spacious, as was the bathroom. We ate in the less expensive restaurant on the first night and food was delicious. However, the main restaurant is a Michelin 1 star and very expensive. The bars are cosy... More

Don't let the Best Western label fool you - this is an old-worldly, classy hotel that is charming but modern, cozy but spacious, and impeccably clean. Bellhop service, gourmet restaurant and dressed-down brasserie open til midnight 7 days a week, sleek, candle-lit piano bar which draws a manageable crowd at night (on Fridays, when I was there, anyway). Friendly reception... More

I stayed here one night to see the cathedral, and the location for that is excellent, which is why I picked it. But I am generally a budget traveler and found this place too fussy and expensive for me. The room was lovely - fantastic pillowtop bed, luxurious linens, and spa-like bathroom. But I don't like paying for valet parking... More

We had a very pleasant stay here for two nights during Christmas, 2011. The room (305) was comfortable and clean with a queen bed and we could see the spires of the cathedral from our window. Service was polite and helpful. Location was wonderful - across the street from a shopping area and just a short walk to the cathedral.... More
