Very tired, rooms scruffy and was not clean, bathroom basic and water pressure low. On the second night the lift was out of order but the hotel failed to display a notice on the ground floor, the stair case is twisty and the carpet is thread bare. I heard after checking out that the local fire department had serious concerns... more

Went to 20 year reunion at Insead. School had suggested hotels Napoleon, Aigle Noir, Londres. As Aigle Noir was already booked out, we called the Napoleon and booked a room (should have checked TripAdvisor beforehand!). While it is well situated, there is no parking and nowhere to stop in front of it so you have to go to the underground... more

I was booked into this hotel by a colleague from my French office, and having read the reviews approached with trpidation. I have to say I didn't find it too bad at all. The receptionist was helpful (even tracking down the taxi I had left my mobile phone in!), my room was accross the courtyard and was comfortable, with a... more

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in, on arrival after a long journey I was given a key to my room which was in the annex. This was a walk through the back garden (unlit) in the pouring rain, I then had to carry my cases up three flights of stairs only to find that I had... more

I went to business school in Fontainebleau, so I am familiar with some of the challenges that tourists can face in France. My five-year reunion was in May 2006. As I wanted to plan ahead, I booked my room (with a credit card reservation) seven months before the reunion. I wanted to make sure that my girlfriend, who was traveling... more

never use this hotel again. Rooms are old, unclean, small. No water pressure in the morning and hot water was coming and going, actually mostly cold. Beds are old. Reception and restaurant staff is unfriendly. No air conditioning available, thanks to Insead for providing portable A/Cs. Hotel location is loud especially in Summer when one is forced to sleep with... more

I frequently travel to Fontainebleau for business as it makes a good base for the area. In the last six months I have stayed at the Mercure, the Aigle Noir and now the Napoleon. You can read my reviews of the other two also and hopefully conclude that I am being as objective as possible. I ended up in the... more

I thought I had booked a good hotel! The Michelin Guide Rouge awards this hotel with 3 hotels, which is not bad at all. The probably stopped in the lobby which looks good. But then..... I checked 4 rooms and they where all in a terrible state. At first the liftdoor wouldn't close and after a long trip to the... more
