Now you too can claim that you’ve slept at Versailles like the King of France (or rather like Jacques Necker, Controller-General of Finances and last Chief Minister of Louis XVI… as that’s whose apartment you can stay in!). Airelles Palace of Versailles just opened and WOW what eye candy!

The hotel is in Le Grand Contrôle on the property, built in 1681, that hosted diplomats and ambassadors and other special guests. Just look! You can view the Orangerie from your bedroom and from a soak in the tub!

There was a four year countrywide hunt for antiques. 90 percent of the hotel’s furniture will be period-appropriate antiques!!

Wallcoverings and fabrics were made by Pierre Frey to mimic Marie Antoinette’s Petit Trianon!

Other hotel highlights:

Alain Ducasse Restaraunt

Valmont Spa

Indoor Pool

BUT the pièce de résistance is TOURS AND EVENTS for hotel guests only!! Before and After hours you will get private tours of different parts of Versailles! Just take my money now.

You can check out the hotel’s website here (and book me a room while you’re at it….) Images are all from Airelles.
