The originality of the building design, which blends in wonderfully with nature
The comfort of the rooms, and their king-sized beds with canopies
27,000m2 (nearly 7 acres) of gardens!
Tucking into the restaurant’s sumptuous dishes on the terrace with superb park views
A classic 'château' in scenic surroundings yet with a modern twist!
Strolling through the lush, green forest, looking across the expansive, still ponds at the eighteenth century château, and listening to the birds singing and the rustling of the trees in the breeze, you would hardly believe that you are just half an hour away from the centre of Paris. It is a peaceful location, surrounded by countryside and history; the rolling green landscapes and elegant country house are exactly what we picture when we imagine rural France.
In the middle of its extensive grounds, the château itself lies on a fascinating spot with a rich history: the site of a 6th century priory, then a castle destroyed in the Hundred Years’ War, then a manor house unrecognisable from what we see today, changed so many times as the ownership of the land changed hands. It is no stranger to regeneration, and the latest update is the very modern Château de Mery hotel, which has thankfully left the grand renaissance château itself completely untouched.
The hotel could hardly be more different from the magnificent old building which it overlooks, apart from in its scale and luxury. A work of art constructed from glass and copper, it is sleek and stylish but not ostentatious or overbearing. Despite its contemporary touch, it remains warm and inviting, and on the inside it is even more impressive. Everywhere you look, the furnishings, colour schemes and decorations are all meticulously designed and brilliantly thought out, while the comfort of the guests and good service are always the hotel’s priorities.
Each of the 70 rooms and suites wows its guests with its chic design, continuing the theme of contrasts with a classic elegance but modern décor and facilities. The spacious king–sized beds are overlooked by graceful canopies, the large bathrooms are equipped with huge glazed lava sinks, and the rooms come with candelabras, coffee machines, Wi-Fi, complimentary bathrobes and slippers, enormous televisions and the very best Bose sound systems. This is a level of luxury that the lords of the old château could not even imagine, and you will almost feel like a modern day Louis XIV, wandering the halls of his majestic palace at Versailles.
Of course, no trip to France is complete without some fine dining, and here the Château de Mery again does not disappoint. Renowned chef Laurent Brun serves up some exquisite, inventive and beautifully presented dishes, a regal feast befitting of the impressive surroundings. I particularly loved spending a relaxed evening slowly but surely making my way through the refined dishes of the eight-course Menu degustation, while sitting on the floral and fragrant terrace and enjoying uneatable views over the park as the sun went down.
You should, of course, be sure to spend an afternoon exploring the grounds and enjoying a picnic along the banks of the river Oise, and a couple of evenings enjoying a glass of champagne and some superb food at the restaurant. However, further afield there is even more to keep you occupied. There is no need to go into details about all that La Ville-Lumière has to offer just half an hour away – Paris is legendary for its beauty and vast range of attractions. Charming market towns, scenic walks through the countryside, grand châteaux such as the magnificent Château de Chantilly (arguably home to France’s finest collection of art outside of the Louvre), and many more typically French delights are dotted around the surrounding area.
Whether you want to spend your days heading into the city or exploring the countryside, visiting a lavish palace or a picturesque village, sightseeing or simply enjoying the fine French gastronomy and wine, this location is perfect for everybody. A truly unique blend of everything that is great about France, the Château de Mery is the perfect place to discover the famous French art de vivre.
