Where to stay
Paris
Paris is the obvious base for Île-de-France golf, combining Le Golf National and the other region's courses with one of the world's most rewarding city experiences. Allow time for traffic to and from the courses, particularly Le Golf National south of the city.
- Golf access
- Le Golf National is 30 km south-west (A86/A10 motorway); Golf de Saint-Cloud is 20 minutes from the city centre.
- Restaurants & evenings
- One of the world's great dining cities across every cuisine and price point.
- Families
- The Eiffel Tower, Musée d'Orsay, Versailles, and Disneyland Paris within the region provide unlimited family activities.
Versailles / Saint-Cloud
Staying in the Versailles or Saint-Cloud area positions golfers between the two main Île-de-France courses and avoids Paris city-centre traffic. The elegant western suburbs have good hotels and are well connected to the city by train.
- Golf access
- Golf de Saint-Cloud is in Saint-Cloud directly west of Paris; Le Golf National is 20 minutes further south.
- Restaurants & evenings
- Saint-Cloud and Versailles have excellent suburban restaurant options and are on Paris's RER train lines.
- Families
- The Palace of Versailles is a short walk from Versailles town — the most visited monument in France.
Chantilly
Chantilly town is the natural base for Golf de Chantilly, sitting just over a kilometre from the course within the Forêt de Chantilly. The Château de Chantilly and its renowned horse museum make the town worthwhile in its own right, and the direct train connection to Paris Gare du Nord keeps the city within easy reach for golfers combining courses across the region.
- Golf access
- Golf de Chantilly is a few minutes from Chantilly town, within the Forêt de Chantilly.
- Restaurants & evenings
- Chantilly town has a range of restaurants suited to a day-trip or short stay, with more choice available in nearby Senlis.
- Families
- The Château de Chantilly, its horse museum, and Chantilly Racecourse give non-golfing companions a genuine day out.
