Mercure Chantilly

Mercure Chantilly Resort & Conventions is a relaxed 4-star golf resort set in a peaceful forest location just north of Paris.

Surrounded by the greenery of Chantilly Forest and overlooking its golf course, it offers a calm countryside base with the convenience of easy access from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, Eurostar Paris Gare du Nord  and the wider Île-de-France region.

Accommodation

The hotel offers 200 modern rooms and suites, many with attractive views over the golf course or surrounding forest.

Rooms are contemporary, comfortable and well equipped, making them a practical choice for couples, golf groups and short-break travellers looking for a restful stay after a day on the fairways.

Restaurants & Bars

Dining is a key part of the resort experience. The hotel’s main restaurant, A l’Epicerie Chantilly, serves seasonal cuisine in a relaxed setting, with a focus on good-quality ingredients and easy resort dining.

Guests can also enjoy drinks at the hotel bar, which offers a comfortable spot for cocktails, light bites or a relaxed evening after golf.

In warmer weather, the terrace areas add to the appeal, with views across the golf course and surrounding grounds.

Golf

Golf is a major part of the appeal at Mercure Chantilly Resort & Conventions, with Garden Golf de Chantilly, also known as UGOLF Forêt de Chantilly, set directly alongside the hotel. This 18-hole course sits within the wooded estate, so guests can enjoy a scenic and convenient round without needing a transfer.

It is an ideal option for arrival-day golf, a relaxed extra round or a quieter game between visits to the area’s more demanding layouts.

For added variety, Golf de Chantilly is only around 1.5km from the hotel, so transfer times are very short. This prestigious 36-hole club is home to the Vineuil and Longères courses, both set in classic forest surroundings. Vineuil is the more famous of the two, with a long championship history and a reputation as one of France’s great traditional courses, while Longères offers another strong 18-hole round close to the resort.

For a Paris golf holiday, this gives Mercure Chantilly a very practical setup. Guests can fly into Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and reach the resort with a relatively short onward transfer, or travel from the UK by Eurostar into Paris Gare du Nord before continuing to Chantilly by rail or private transfer.

Leisure Facilities

The resort offers a wide range of leisure facilities beyond golf. Guests can make use of the indoor and outdoor swimming pools, fitness room, sauna and hammam, while the grounds provide space for jogging, walking and cycling.

There are also several active options available on site, including tennis, badminton, table tennis and boules, giving the hotel plenty of appeal for non-golfers or those wanting a more varied stay.

Nearby Attractions

The hotel is well placed for exploring Chantilly and the surrounding area. The Château de Chantilly, Grandes Écuries and Living Museum of the Horse are all nearby, offering a superb mix of history, art, gardens and equestrian heritage.

Guests can also visit the historic town of Senlis, known for its cobbled streets, medieval walls and old stone buildings.

For those wanting to add a city experience, Paris is close enough for a day trip or evening visit, making this a flexible choice for golf holidays with a cultural element.

Getting There

Mercure Chantilly Resort & Conventions is located in Vineuil-Saint-Firmin, close to Chantilly and around 40 to 45 minutes north of central Paris by road, depending on traffic.

Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport is the most convenient airport for international arrivals, with transfers to the resort typically taking around 30 minutes.

For UK golfers, the resort can also work well by rail. The Eurostar arrives into Paris Gare du Nord, where guests can connect by train to Chantilly-Gouvieux station. From there, the hotel is a short taxi transfer away.

Best Time to Visit

The best time to visit Mercure Chantilly Resort & Conventions for a Paris golf holiday is generally from April to October, when the weather is milder and the courses around Chantilly are at their most enjoyable.

May, June, September and early October are especially good months for golf, offering comfortable temperatures, pleasant course conditions and a good balance between playing time and sightseeing.

July and August can also work well, particularly for guests who want to make use of the resort’s outdoor pool and leisure facilities, although these months can be warmer and busier.

For golfers wanting the best overall mix of golf, culture and easy travel from the UK, late spring and early autumn are the strongest choices.
