L'Auberge du Château de Dampierre-en-Yvelines: a charming hotel facing the castle

The Auberge du Château, a 17thᵉ century house transformed into a charming hotel, is located at the foot of the Château de Dampierre. In this authentic setting, fifteen renovated rooms offer a subtle blend of modern comfort and tradition, all just 35 minutes from Paris, in the heart of the Vallée de Chevreuse.

Are you looking for a charming hotel for a stay or a relaxed weekend near Paris in the Yvelines? We invite you to discover theAuberge du Château, a historic building that now houses a 15-room hotel and a fine gourmet restaurant, just opposite the Château de Dampierre.

Designed as a cosy, contemporary family home, the inn invites you to enjoy a rejuvenating stay. Set in the heart of the Parc Naturel de la Haute Vallée de Chevreuse, the rooms are decorated to reflect their surroundings, in three distinct universes: Château, Forêt and Jardins. Each room pays homage to the natural beauty that surrounds the establishment, with the Château de Dampierre opposite, the lush forest in the background and the gardens of the Yvelines all around.

Bought by Franky Mulliez, who has also owned Domaine de Dampierre since 2018, the inn has been relaunched by chef Élisabeth Passédat. The rooms, ranging in size from 15 to 30 m², are distinguished by their refined, floral decor, and their rates range from €175 to €224 per night. The Auberge du Château also offers family rooms, perfect for groups.

Passionate about gastronomy and hospitality, Élisabeth Passédat took over the inn as a family with her husband, sharing a common vision to make this establishment a place of exception. Together, they infuse the inn with a warm, friendly atmosphere, while emphasizing craftsmanship and culinary excellence.

The restaurant La Table du Château, run by Élisabeth Passédat, gives pride of place to local, seasonal produce. The chef works with the best regional producers, preserving the quality and natural cycle of ingredients. Mushrooms, fish and shellfish are among her major sources of inspiration. If you're looking for a timeless hotel with a fine dining experience and an attractive wine list, this is the place for you. In any case, it's the ideal setting for a romantic weekend or a family getaway to discover the treasures of the Vallée de Chevreuse.

The inn has free Wi-Fi and is close to many attractions. Along with the rooms, a gourmet breakfast is served, featuring fresh, local produce. It's a great way to refuel before taking a trip to the Domaine de Dampierre, a walk in the forest or a visit to one of the beautiful châteaux in the area(Versailles, Breteuil, Méridon or Dampierre, not forgetting the beautifulAbbaye des Vaux de Cernay, are all nearby).

For hiking enthusiasts, the natural environment of Dampierre-en-Yvelines offers superb trails through forests and valleys. To the right of the Auberge, don't miss the charming Jardin Sucré tearoom, where gourmets will be delighted by its home-made pastries. The Château also regularly comes alive with activities for young and old alike. The ice-skating rink and other winter activities bring the estate to life during the winter vacations.

We enjoyed our stay at the Auberge du Château, which offered us an immersive and relaxing experience, ideal for a getaway in the heart of nature, while remaining close to the cultural riches of the Île-de-France region.
