Situated right next to the Château de Fontainebleau and in the heart of the city, it offers unparalleled convenience for visitors. The hotel is perfectly positioned near the castle, city center, restaurants, pubs, shops and even the Fontainebleau Forest, making everything within easy walking distance. Guests noted the historical city center's beauty, elegance and tranquility, combined with the convenience of nearby amenities.

The central location provides a serene atmosphere with well-insulated rooms ensuring a peaceful stay. Guests also appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel and the warm, attentive welcome from the staff. The building's old-world charm adds to the overall pleasant experience with staff often going the extra mile to assist guests, including carrying luggage.

Despite a few mentions of small room sizes, the positive aspects of the location and the friendly, helpful staff were consistent highlights. The proximity to key attractions and the vibrant city life, coupled with good value for money, make Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau an excellent choice for visitors looking to explore Fontainebleau.

Breakfast
Located ideally near the castle and shopping streets, Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau offers a breakfast experience that has garnered mixed reviews from guests. The ambiance may be a tad old-fashioned, but the hotel's central location is unbeatable. Many guests appreciate the hearty and generous breakfast, often praising its freshness and quality. The staff's friendliness and willingness to accommodate, even allowing midnight dining, adds a welcoming touch to the experience.

On the downside, several guests wished for a greater variety, especially in bread and cheese options. Some found the breakfast basic or average with a few noting that the price is somewhat steep considering the limited choices available. Issues like the absence of key items such as bread or orange juice and having to deal with coffee pods that can’t be refilled were mentioned. Despite these shortcomings, many still found the breakfast decent overall and enjoyed the plentiful servings.

Rooms
Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau offers simple and clean rooms with comfortable bedding, making it a decent choice for a basic stay. Most rooms are small and face the street, which can make them a bit noisy at night. The accommodations are quite basic and somewhat old and the rooms would benefit from updates and repairs to address worn-out conditions and outdated decor.

While the rooms are generally well-equipped, the lack of air conditioning or fans can make them uncomfortably hot and there are occasional issues with cleanliness and maintenance, such as dubious stains on the walls and insufficient toiletries. The compact size of the rooms might not suit everyone, placing practical constraints on space and amenities like nightstands and kettles.

Though the pricing may feel steep given the condition of the rooms, if one's primary need is a straightforward place to sleep with comfortable beds, Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau could be a viable option. However, potential guests should be prepared for some compromises regarding room size, noise and temperature control.

Beds
Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau offers mixed experiences when it comes to the comfort of its beds. While some guests found the beds comfortable and praised the quality of the bedding, others noted significant issues such as outdated and uneven mattresses. There were specific complaints about feeling the springs, which detracted from a good night's sleep. The condition of the mattresses varied with some described as too hard and others as too soft, leading to discomfort and aches. Additionally, the overall state of the bedding, including its smell, was not up to everyone's expectations. Despite these concerns, the hotel is credited for its welcoming atmosphere and excellent location.

Cleanliness
'Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau' presents a mostly positive image regarding cleanliness from its guest reviews. Many guests appreciated the hotel's very clean rooms and noted that it remains well-maintained despite its vintage style. Specifically, the bedding was frequently highlighted for its cleanliness and comfort. The staff also received praise for being welcoming and pleasant, contributing to an overall pleasant experience.

However, some reviews pointed out areas for improvement. Some guests mentioned that the cleanliness of sanitary facilities could be better and there were isolated reports of unclean bathrooms, broken bed springs and insufficient towels. Issues such as noise from nearby bars and parking difficulties were also mentioned, along with occasional remarks about untidy conditions and dated amenities.

In summary, Hôtel Belle Fontainebleau generally achieves satisfactory cleanliness standards, particularly in its rooms and bedding, but there are occasional inconsistencies that future visitors might want to keep in mind.
