"The hotel is beautiful and the room clean and comfortable. Staff was welcoming, but did not mention several things that I would expect at a hotel of this caliber…no valet or bell person before 8:30am. Would have been nice to find out on arrival rather than morning of departure. Person helping us then was polite and did give a good explanation of how and where to retrieve our car."

You'll find fewer visitors compared to the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience at popular attractions like Chartres Cathedral. The gardens and parks are also particularly lovely during these seasons.For those interested in specific events, the Chartres en Lumières festival, which illuminates the city's monuments with light projections, typically runs from April to October.
