Frequently asked questions
How far ahead should a climate seminar near Fontainebleau be booked?
We recommend booking at least three months ahead, as the cooking workshop, the perfume workshop and the river venue each depend on their own calendar. The coach transfer is confirmed once the group's numbers are known.
What group size does this programme accept?
The programme suits 20 to 30 people. The cooking workshop accepts 10 to 45 people, the perfume workshop 4 to 45, and Le Playtime holds up to 100 seated guests. The hotel's largest room is listed for 330 theatre-style.
What is included, and what can be customised?
The quotation covers the hotel, the activities, venue hire and the coach transfers. The working session, the workshop themes and the Paris programme can be adapted, and hotel rates vary with the season and format.
