A little bit of country air, only 15 minutes from Paris. Les Etangs de Corot is a boutique hotel in a pastoral setting, placed at the edge of the water. No wonder this magical place has inspired so many Impressionist painters starting with Jean Baptiste Corot, who gave this unique place its name. First a very popular tavern in the nineteenth century, there remains today “straw huts” (atypical terraces on stilts), which offer a breathtaking view over the ponds, and where you can enjoy lunch or dinner for much of the year.
The hotel offers 41 rooms and 2 suites for their customers, along with the values of “authenticity and exceptionality”, found through 2 restaurants (one of which has a 1 star rating in the famous Michelin guide) a cozy bar and a renowned wine therapy Caudalie brand spa.
Each room has a personal atmosphere with antique furniture, opening to either a flowery interior courtyard or to the lily ponds. This decorative universe, a subtle alliance between cultural heritage and the pastoral environment, presents a color pallette faithful to the iconic painter Corot: brown, taupe, gray for the common areas and more vibrant colors like orange , gold, turquoise and red for the rooms.
Les Etangs de Corot is also essential stopover on a visit the Palace of Versailles, which is just 10 minutes away.
Most of the hotel offers privileged and free access (queue cut) for its guests to the castle.
