Our take
Hôtel Les Lumières is the choice I would make for anyone whose trip revolves around the Château de Versailles: the 18th-century townhouse stands directly opposite, and some rooms have château views. Marble bathrooms, a continental breakfast and cocktails in the lounge give it a polished feel. Pets are accepted and families are welcome. Evenings in this part of Versailles are quiet, so travellers looking for nightlife will be better served in Paris, reachable by train from Versailles Chantier.
