Hôtellerie du Bas-Bréau  

On the edge of the Fontainebleau forest in Barbizon, this former hunting lodge feels like a rustic hideaway minutes from Millet's Studio and a short drive to Château de Fontainebleau. A golf hotel near Fontainebleau and Gâtinais Français Natural Regional Park, it’s a pet-friendly base for exploring the area.

Twenty individually decorated guestrooms mix lodge character with modern comforts—minibars, flat-screen TVs and private bathrooms with jetted bathtubs. Rooms may include bathrobes and slippers, safes and coffee/tea makers, and many offer terrace or garden views for forest-fringed mornings.

Soak by the outdoor pool and order a drink from the poolside bar, or book a treatment in the massage room. The hotel also offers a terrace and garden with stunning views, a gift shop, banquet hall, concierge and a tour desk to arrange local excursions.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet keeps you connected. There’s a banquet hall for events and concierge services to arrange transfers; airport and area shuttles are available for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve local and regional French flavors, with room service during limited hours. Continental breakfast is offered daily from 8:00–10:00 for a fee.
