Waldorf Astoria Versailles Trianon Palace

The Waldorf Astoria Versailles, Trianon Palace offers a refined and elegant stay just steps from the grounds of the Château de Versailles.

The location alone makes it an exceptional base for exploring Versailles, allowing guests to walk directly to the palace gardens while still enjoying a peaceful setting slightly removed from the main tourist flow.

Rooms are spacious and impeccably maintained, combining classic elegance with modern comfort. Service throughout the stay was excellent, with the concierge team providing thoughtful and discreet assistance whenever needed. A special mention goes to the concierge who helped source a specific bottle of red wine ahead of my arrival, a small detail that demonstrated impressive attention to guest requests.

Breakfast offers an extensive selection, with hot drinks served directly to the table and a generous buffet to choose from.

Dining at the hotel’s Gordon Ramsay au Trianon, the Michelin-starred restaurant, is another highlight and delivers exactly the level of precision and quality expected.

Overall, the Trianon Palace provides a polished luxury experience where location, service, and heritage combine beautifully.

Wonderful hotel all around. We were greeted promptly at the door and our luggage was taken inside. The front desk was helpful as well as the concierge. Our room was gorgeous with a little patio and very nice seperate tub and shower. Perfectly soft bed and pillows that were dreamy to keep on after many days of hard beds at other properties. The breakfast spread is huge and everything was good and fresh. The locations is just outside of the gardens of versailles which was perfect for us. I wish we were able to stay longer. This hotel is something we look forward to coming back to.

It was a really nice stay, Christelle at reception was very informative and friendly the room was well set up and has everything you could need. Location of the hotel is very convenient to visit Versailles both the town and palace grounds. The biggest disappointment was the restaurant la veranda. Service was very haphazard and missing that finesse you are expecting for a supposed fine dining restaurant in a 5*hotel. Thought breakfast would have made us rethink this but again the service was very subpar. No hostess for 10 minutes while the wait staff were hiding in the back chatting. The hot food on the buffet was lukewarm at best, I would suggest you stick you fresh bread and pastries.

Exceptional hotel. Not a lot else to say. I'm somewhat unforgiving with hotels that claim to be luxury, but this was a great service experience. From the moment I arrived it felt like the staff's attention was squarely on me. I wasn't aware it was a Hilton hotel, but staff surprised me with the confirmation that my Gold status had been applied anyway! We stayed in the 5-star Palace.

Valet was perfect, offering room luggage transfer every drop-off, reception was hands-on and blisteringly efficient. Had a few issues and they'd work with me every time to address them.

Esa deserves a commendation for exceptional service. Likewise, a young oriental man, with a deep voice (I say for ID) whose name I didn't catch. Both of these receptionists were excellent.

Concierge always on the ball. Breakfast was a large spread, seated and coffee and tea provided to the table prior to anything.

Staff greeted me with attentive professionalism everywhere I went. I don't like returning to hotels I've visited before but I may make an exception for this branch!

I had a 6 night stay at the Waldorf-Astoria Trianon Palace in September. The hotel's location could not be better. Very easy access to the Parc, as well as the beautiful town of Versailles. The concierge was great for advice, and booking special tours of the Palace and other excursions. Although the rather expensive (EUR300 per person) 'secret passages' tour of the Palace the concierge booked for our small group was simply a guided tour of the state rooms of the palace we all had seen before... not any 'secrets' included whatsoever. The breakfast was very good, with quick service even when busy on the weekend, with a wide variety of choice of items, coffees, tea, etc. Some downsides were that the hotel bar was not busy one weeknight, and we were given last call quite early as they decided to close despite the posted ours being open until midnight, and there was nowhere else cozy in the hotel to really sit other than the hallway and relax otherwise late into the evening with a nightcap... absolutely not expected from a five star hotel. Also, the air conditioning was turned off in the evening overnight in the rooms... it was rather warm that week and it was very, very difficult to sleep in the heat! Not something I was expecting for a 'luxury' hotel. The beds were comfortable, but the rooms were dated. I had to crawl around to find a single outlet, and thankfully brought a power strip to plug in a laptop plus a charger. The rooms were comfortable, but more afterthoughts in successive renovations without the usual modern conveniences like USB plugs by the bed, handy lighting switches, and other things that lesser hotels now have commonplace. I'm not sure i'd stay here again, whether its via points or the company paying. They got the scenery and location right, but the little conveniences experienced travelers have come to rely on were not there.
