Versailles will cost you at least half a day, but not necessarily a full day.
If you are staying for five days, and you really want to see Versailles, you
should go. If the idea of looking at a palace without furniture and pretty
gardens doesn't thrill you, it might not be worth it. Some people drool over
Versailles, others find that it puts them to sleep, so you can't go by what
other people say.

It doesn't sound like you're eager to see it, so I'd say just skip it and save
it for some other trip. I didn't even bother with the Louvre on my first trip
to Paris. |
