You then head back to your accommodation, and you've seen one of the most beautiful ch\u00e2teaux in France in the process.<\/p>\n<h3>\u26a0\ufe0f The pitfalls to be aware of<\/h3>\n<p>The Ch\u00e2teau cloakroom <strong>does not accept suitcases or bulky luggage<\/strong>. The official instructions are clear: only <strong>backpacks, handbags, business bags and umbrellas<\/strong> are accepted. If you're travelling with a classic wheeled suitcase, this is not the solution: turn to a Nannybag locker or a hotel in the centre.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83d\udd58 Opening and closing times<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>April to September<\/strong>&nbsp;9.30am to 6pm (last admission at 5.15pm).<\/li>\n<li><strong>October to March<\/strong>&nbsp;9.30am to 5pm (last admission at 4.15pm).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Closed<\/strong>&nbsp;all <em>Tuesdays<\/em>, 1 January, 1 May and 25 December.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"hotels\">\ud83c\udfe8 Solution 3: hotels in the centre (customers and sometimes non-customers)<\/h2>\n<p>The majority of the hotels in Fontainebleau and Avon offer a <strong>free luggage storage for their customers<\/strong>, before check-in and after check-out. This is the easiest solution if you are staying in a hotel.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83c\udfe8 Hotels in the centre with locker service<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/black-eagle-fontainebleau-mgallery-collection\/\"><strong>Black Eagle Fontainebleau<\/strong><\/a> (MGallery), opposite the Ch\u00e2teau<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/hotel-spa-napoleon-fontainebleau\/\"><strong>Napoleon Fontainebleau Hotel &amp; Spa<\/strong><\/a>, right in the centre<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/hotel-de-cavoye\/\"><strong>H\u00f4tel de Cavoye<\/strong><\/a>, 10 min walk from the Ch\u00e2teau<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/hotel-ibis-chateau-de-fontainebleau\/\"><strong>ibis Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau<\/strong><\/a>, right next to the Ch\u00e2teau<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/hotel-ibis-budget-fontainebleau-avon\/\"><strong>ibis budget Fontainebleau Avon<\/strong><\/a>, near the station<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/the-originals-boutique-hotel-victoria-fontainebleau\/\"><strong>The Originals H\u00f4tel Victoria<\/strong><\/a>, in the centre<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/mercure-chateau-de-fontainebleau-demeures-de-campagne\/\"><strong>Mercure Demeures de Campagne<\/strong><\/a>, on the edge of the forest<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\ud83e\udd1d What if you're not a customer?<\/h3>\n<p>There is no obligation for them to accept, but in practice, many hotels in the centre agree to keep one or two pieces of luggage for a few hours in exchange for a fee. <strong>small amount<\/strong> (count <strong>5 \u00e0 10 \u20ac<\/strong> per bag, depending on the establishment). This works best in low season, when reception has space and time.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Council<\/strong>&nbsp;Call before you travel, especially in high season or at weekends. That way you won't have to walk for nothing if the hotel is fully booked or refuses. And between a Nannybag locker costing \u20ac2.50 and a hotel charging \u20ac8, the maths is quickly done.<\/p>\n<h2>\ud83d\udca1 Practical tips<\/h2>\n<h3>\ud83d\ude89 The station is in Avon, not Fontainebleau<\/h3>\n<p>The station is called <strong>Fontainebleau-Avon<\/strong> and is located in the municipality of'<strong>Avon<\/strong>, not Fontainebleau. Many foreign travellers look in vain for a locker \u00abat Fontainebleau station\u00bb when none of the solutions on this page are in the station itself. If you arrive by train, please allow <strong>10 minutes by bus<\/strong> (lines 1 or 11, \u00abCh\u00e2teau\u00bb stop) to get to the centre's lockers, or <strong>25 minutes on foot<\/strong> with a suitcase.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83e\uddd7 If you come climbing<\/h3>\n<p>For climbers who spend the day in the forest (Bas Cuvier, Apremont, Trois Pignons...), there is a Nannybag locker in the centre where you can drop off your crash pad and bulky bags the day before or in the morning, and pick them up at the end of the day to get back on the train unencumbered.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83d\ude96 If you take a VTC to the airport<\/h3>\n<p>Take advantage of this opportunity to arrange for the driver to pick you up at the end of the day, either at your place of interest or at the Tourist Office. A VTC makes the Fontainebleau-Roissy journey in around 1h15 and accepts luggage in the boot, so you don't need to drop anything off in town during the day if you're well organised.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary>How much does luggage storage cost in Fontainebleau?<\/summary>\n<p>From <strong>2.50\/day\/luggage<\/strong> at Nannybag (Near Palais de Justice locker), <strong>3.70\/day\/luggage<\/strong> at Nannybag \u00abNear Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau\u00bb, <strong>free at the Ch\u00e2teau<\/strong> for small bags during the visit, <strong>5 \u00e0 10 \u20ac<\/strong> in a hotel for non-clients.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is there a locker at Fontainebleau-Avon station?<\/summary>\n<p><strong>No.<\/strong> The SNCF does not have a locker in Fontainebleau-Avon. Left-luggage lockers in the Paris region are only available at the main Paris stations (Gare de Lyon, Gare du Nord, Gare de l'Est, Gare Montparnasse, Gare d'Austerlitz). For Fontainebleau, the Nannybag lockers in the centre are the equivalent solution, a 10-minute bus ride from the station.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How do I reserve a Nannybag locker in Fontainebleau?<\/summary>\n<p>Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nannybag.com\/fr\/consigne-bagage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nannybag.com<\/a> (or <a href=\"https:\/\/fr.bounce.com\/s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bounce.com<\/a>, (same network), type in \u00abFontainebleau\u00bb, choose your dates and the number of bags, select one of the two points on the map and pay online. The exact address will be sent to you after confirmation. On site, present your confirmation to the shopkeeper.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can I leave my suitcase at the Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau during my visit?<\/summary>\n<p><strong>No.<\/strong> The Ch\u00e2teau cloakroom only accepts small items of luggage: backpacks, handbags, visitor bags and umbrellas. Bulky suitcases and luggage are not accepted. For suitcases, use the Nannybag locker in the centre.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can my hotel hold my luggage before check-in or after check-out?<\/summary>\n<p><strong>Yes, this is the most common practice.<\/strong> The vast majority of hotels in Fontainebleau and Avon offer their guests free luggage storage before check-in (from the morning) and after check-out (until the evening). Please confirm this with reception on arrival or the day before departure.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Are the Nannybag Fontainebleau lockers reliable?<\/summary>\n<p>Both partners have a score of <strong>5\/5<\/strong> (52 reviews for the Pr\u00e8s du Ch\u00e2teau locker, 5 reviews for the Palais de Justice locker). Each item of baggage is also covered by Nannybag insurance up to \u20ac10,000 in the event of loss, theft or breakage. Reservations and payment must be made online before drop-off: no payment is accepted on site.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>I'm coming to climb, where can I leave my crash pad and equipment?<\/summary>\n<p>A Nannybag locker in the centre accepts all types of luggage, including bulky items. Book online, drop off the crash pad and bags at the shop in the morning, and collect everything at the end of the day to catch the train back home. It's much more practical than carrying everything into the forest.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<h2>See also<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/where-to-park-in-fontainebleau\/\">Where can I park in Fontainebleau?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/places\/fontainebleau-castle\/\">The Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;margin:20px 0;clear:both;\"><div class=\"fblck-t fblck-is-lazy\" data-gid=\"215\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2190 Accueil Vous arrivez \u00e0 Fontainebleau avec vos valises mais l&#8217;heure du check-in de votre h\u00e9bergement est encore loin&nbsp;?
