Dear Didier, Thank you for sharing your feedback! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed our well-maintained hotel and had a delightful experience at our restaurant, especially with our cheese selection. I understand the bathroom setup wasn't quite what you expected, and we appreciate your comments on that. Your insights help us to continue improving our guest experience. Best wishes, L'équipe Mercure Maintenon

Samuel D. Families - 1/1/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Although I already mentioned this to the front desk, I wanted to reiterate just how good a stay my partner and mother in law had over the Christmas period. The staff (Roxanne and Juliette in particular) were lovely and took great care of us, and both the spa team and facilities were excellent. This was a true moment of relaxation, calm and rest for all of us.

Dear Mr D., Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review following your stay with us over the Christmas period. We are delighted to read that you, your partner and your mother-in-law enjoyed a relaxing and peaceful holiday with us, and that our team contributed positively to your experience. Your kind words about Roxane and Juliette have been shared with them and the wider team – they will be truly pleased to know their attentiveness made a difference. We are also very happy that you enjoyed the spa, the pool and your treatments, which are indeed designed to offer moments of calm and well-being. At the same time, we would like to sincerely thank you for your constructive feedback. Your comments regarding accessibility, particularly the layout of the accessible room, the bathroom configuration and the positioning and marking of disabled parking spaces, are extremely valuable. These points have been shared with our management and technical teams, as accessibility and safety are priorities for us, and your observations help us identify concrete areas for improvement. We also acknowledge your remarks concerning the rooms (amenities, cups, tissues), breakfast experience, and sustainability initiatives. Your feedback on breakfast hours during holiday periods, buffet expectations, table layout and pricing is very relevant and will be reviewed as part of our ongoing reflections. Likewise, your suggestions regarding reusable cups, recycling facilities and clearer sustainable practices are well noted and align with improvements we wish to strengthen in the future. Regarding the restaurant, we appreciate your understanding during the busy first evening and are glad that the team was able to recover the experience the following night. Your comments about local products, particularly cheeses, and food waste are insightful and will be discussed with our culinary team. Once again, thank you for both your kind compliments and your honest, well-considered suggestions. Feedback like yours helps us progress and improve the experience we offer to our guests. We truly hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you and your family again in Maintenon for another relaxing stay. Warm regards, The Mercure Maintenon Team
