Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower from my room, and I loved the BIG double bed and the great bathroom. However, the room was quite tiny without any view, and I missed having a kettle or coffee machine; also, the extra $100 per night was a bit pricey for what the room offered.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel! The rooms were lush and comfortable with the view I'd been dreaming of, offering a decent view of the Eiffel Tower. The service was fabulous, especially the Valet and concierge who were always on hand to help. The location couldn't be more perfect, right next to the Arch and near all the shops, cafes, and the George V metro station. The dining was good, although a bit overpriced for the atmosphere. Overall, a great experience!
The hotel's location is perfect, just off Champs Elysees and near the Arc de Triomphe, surrounded by fabulous restaurants. The rooms were lush and comfortable, with a dreamy view. However, room 114 at the corner was not to my liking, leading me to switch rooms after a single night. The service was fabulous, especially from the Valet and concierge, although some staff did not seem to work well together. The dining experience could improve in terms of variety and atmosphere. The hotel offers excellent facilities to enhance the stay.
The hotel is perfectly located just off the vibrant Champs-Elysées, offering a fantastic base for exploring Paris. The rooms initially had some issues but were swiftly addressed with a room change. The service, particularly from the concierge Patrick, was outstanding, making our stay truly memorable. However, the dining options could use a bit more variety to match the hotel's high status.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely splendid! The rooms were romantic and pretty, embodying a touch of Parisian lifestyle, and the view of the Eiffel Tower was simply breathtaking. However, there was a slight issue with smoke smell at times. The service was top-notch, with the Valet and concierge being extremely helpful and always available. The location couldn't have been better, being just meters away from the bustling Champs-Elysees and Arc de Triomphe. The dining options were a bit lacking but the hotel's physical and operational improvements are much needed. Overall, a wonderful experience in the heart of Paris.
I found the hotel to be conveniently located just minutes away from the Champs-Elysees and the Arc de Triomphe, making it a great spot to explore the city. The rooms had some issues with noise at night and bright lights in the cupboard, but overall, the service was exceptional and the location was fantastic. The dining options were a bit limited in variety and seemed a bit pricey, but the facilities were well-maintained and enjoyable.
