This charming town near Paris is famous for its Malmaison Castle, the residence of Napoleon Bonaparte and his bride, Josephine.

Rueil-Malmaison is a commune in the western suburbs of Paris, in the Hauts-de-Seine department of France. Rueil is famous for the Chateau de Malmaison where Napoleon and his first wife Josephine de Beauharnais lived. Upon her death in 1814, she was buried at the nearby Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul church, which stands at the center of the city. The Rueil barracks of the Swiss Guard were constructed in 1756 under Louis XV by the architect Axel Guillaumot, and have been classified Monument historique since 1973.

First of all, the service from your team was great. When I rang customer service, the lady I spoke to was really helpful. RoutePerfect made planning our trip really easy. The site is fantastic in that it prices your overall trip for you and then allows you to change your hotels if you want to, updating the price as you go along. It was great to have everything paid in advance and to have the prepaid vouchers. the hotel staff all seemed familiar with this method.

I really enjoyed using RoutePerfect and will definitely be using it more in the future. I used to use another website, but not any more. Your site has much better hotels. All check-ins were smooth, and hotels were as advertised. The trip was great!
