WHERE TO STAY
for those traveling long distances, we curated a list of accommodations in Paris, Fontainebleau, and Bourron-Marlotte. Please note! Paris is one-hour by public transport/car from the venue of our ceremony and reception. We highly recommend booking a place in Bourron-Marlotte or Fontainebleau for the weekend of the wedding. This will allow you to enjoy the evening without worrying about catching a train.
Below is a list of options we have curated. Please, do not feel confined to our curation. There are many lovely places to stay that are but a google search away!
AIRBNB
Bourron-Marlotte and Fontainebleau have a number of wonderful Airbnb options. We highly recommend renting a flat for the weekend of the wedding. This will truly allow you to live like the locals!
Chateau de Bourron-Marlotte
The Castle of Bourron-Marlotte is a great stay for anyone wanting to get a taste of French history. Established in 1150, the castle and its grounds boast centuries of royal history, as well as pétanque, tennis courts, and a spa!
Hotel de Cavoye
Steps away from the Castle of Fontainebleau is the luxurious Hotel de Cavoye. The hotel boasts a lovey restaurant and bar, breakfast, and concierge services to help you around the wonderful town of Fontainebleau. Rooms start at around 164€.
** please note this hotel is ~10 minutes by car from the venue
Hotel le Richelieu
Hotel Le Richelieu is a bright and hip hotel in the center of Fontainebleau. The property also has a small but authentic French bistro and a vintage decorated wine-bar. Steps away from the cafes and restaurants of Fontainebleau, this hotel is a great option for those who want to see the tastes and sips of the city! Rooms start at around 99€.
** please note this hotel is ~10 minutes by car from the venue
Hotel Molitor
Hotel Molitor is a historic yet hip hotel sitting just outside the peripherique of Paris. It is home to Paris's largest and oldest swimming pool that is open year round. While it is a metro ride away from Paris's biggest attractions, it is a fun spot to come back to for an evening swim! (It is also a family favorite: Emma's parents love it!) Rooms start at around 300€.
** please note this hotel is ~1 hour by car from the venue
