We recently stayed at the Grand Monarque in order to be closer to Paris in order to return a rental car early the next morning. We were not staying in Melun for any particular reason. The Grand Monarque turned out to be a very nice hotel.... comfortable, quiet rooms, great bathrooms and good, firm beds. The staff were also very... More

We had a nice room with a balcony on the 2nd floor overlooking the pool. The room was a fair size with a spacious bathroom. It was quiet and clean More

This hotel gets a mixed review from us. When we arrived, we received lovely service. Coming from the UK that morning, we finally reached Le Grand Monarque, exhausted, at about 1 a.m. The night clerk was quite thoughtful. When the elevator malfunctioned with our bags inside, he pressed some buttons to reset it. The doors closed with us outside the... More

The staff makes an effort to understand your needs. The rooms are a little bit bigger than what you expect in France. Melun is a very good choice for... More

This hotel is great value at €75 for a double room. It is very clean and nicely located on its own grounds on the edge of the town. I stayed there for 2 nights in Oct '08 and was really impressed with the cleanliness, service and location. Yes it's slightly worn around the edges but they more than make up... More

The hotel was ok, nothing special. A bit 80-ties feeling about the place. The elevator didn´t look to reliable, and the hotel smelled of fresh paint. In my room the door to the bathroom could not be closed, because the door probably swelled from getting wet. The price was not what I had been told it would be, and for... More
