One very hot August day we got there at 9am which meant an early start from Paris which was a good thing as it was very hot inside by the time we left. The Palace it self seld isninterating and grand to see but having been to the Louvre the day before many of the rooms were very similar. The hall of mirrors is good. The gardens are extensive but one of the main features is all the fountains. In August they were all switched off, but no discount for that which felt little of bit of a of sharp practice.

Disappointing! Cheat! Most real rooms are closed to visitors. Only those who pays a private and guided tour can see it. Those who haven't studied/know the history of Versailles might be content with what little they show. Those who are interested in history not. You just can't see the rooms of Montespan, Felipe, Maintenan, Colbert, Pallatina, Livving Room, Jail, Chappell, Opera. Anyway, no real Versailles. You can only visit a corridor of paintings mounted along the left wing and basically the room of mirrors. In addition, the French are extremely rude and uneducated.

A wonderfully delightful visit to the palace the last day of the music in the gardens and the flowers were still blooming in spite of the chill in the weather!

We had gone on 17 th July to see the palace. We took metro and RER-C and reached around 11.15 am. We stood in the long queue for 1 hr 15 minutes in the hot son. It’s been a tourist place quite sometime now . But still just one counter for people to enter even with online tickets. Only for groups they had another entrance. No shade . Very poor management. People were cutting the line. When the palace is earning so much revenue from visitors at least some consideration to be given towards people’s welfare. Even though we had paid to visit another palace Trianon, we had no patience or energy to visit it. Briefly visited the garden and returned back to the hotel. Wasted the amount paid towards its ticket. I strongly recommend people to go either early that’s before 9 or after 3pm to avoid the queue. No doubt the palace is magnificent. But if the people are treated so poorly I wouldn’t recommend visiting the place.

En el palacio hacia muchísimo calor, sofacante y con multitud de gente en su interior. Tras pasar tanto calor, decidimos coger un tren para ver los jardines pero nos equivocamos de entrada y la chófer no nos dejó subirnos, comenzó a gritarnos y nos dejó al sol 30 min esperando el siguiente tren.

Reggia sicuramente sopravvalutata Giardino bello, reggia di Venaria molto più bella È costosissimo, molto finto tutto Molto marketing…..
