Pros: The hotel location is phenomenal. If you are willing to walk, there is plenty to see nearby. Within 30 minutes of walking you can get to Louvre, L’Orangerie, Arc de Triomphe, Grand Palais, Petit Palais, Musee d’Orsay, Rodin Museum, and Eiffel Tower. There is a park on the next block over. You can pick up grocery store food at Franprix two streets over or walk a little further to get to the bigger Monoprix grocery store. Several restaurants of different types are in the area.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. We had the pleasure of having Leon greet us on arrival. We arrived to the hotel around 10am, well before check-in. He was able to hold our bags at the hotel until we were able to check-in around 2pm. This freed up time for us to walk around for 4 hours without dragging our luggage around. Very much appreciated! Over the few days we saw him he always asked how the room was, pointed out the umbrellas at the front door that we could use when it was raining, and answered any questions we had. We were disappointed we didn’t see him the last few days of our stay. All of the front desk were polite when we saw them. Housekeeping was also wonderful.

The hotel key is a physical key on a heavy keychain that must be left at the front desk whenever you leave the hotel. At first this seemed odd, but it was actually a great idea. I never had to worry about losing the hotel key or have to deal with an electronic key card not working. It also lets the housekeeping staff know when you are out of the hotel so they know when they can clean your room without having to knock and disturb you.

The TV had “Videos On Demand” that gave you a selection of various genres of movies you could watch in English. Just keep in mind the descriptions are still in French so you might need to google it on the WiFi to know what you’re looking at. Also for some weird reason if the movie had text at the beginning to give backstory it showed up in French (this happened with Antebellum and another movie we watched). The TV channels are only in French, but we were perfectly happy watching movies so this wasn’t an issue for us.

Our room was an “Elegance with shower and balcony.” It let us choose to have two twin beds or one double bed. The room was a great size and offered nice amenities. We had a safe, robes, slippers, mini fridge with paid drink options (free waters), coffee station, bathroom toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, vanity kit, shoe shine sponge, shower cap, lotion), a corkscrew, and extra pillows in the closet. We brought the table in from the balcony to use as a tv-tray to eat and watch movies at the same time. Housekeeping kindly wiped down the table and kept it inside the room for us since they knew we were using it.

Cons: The table and chairs on the balcony fit out there but there was not much extra room. This would have been okay, except one chair was wobbly. I’m not sure if this was from the concrete being uneven or the chair legs not being even, but I didn’t feel comfortable sitting out there because I felt unstable in a wobbly chair on such a tiny balcony. (We still stood on the balcony, just didn’t use the chairs.)

Paris was in the mid-60’s (Fahrenheit) when we arrived. Since it was still considered Winter, the hotel is only in heating mode and air conditioning was not able to be used. The lowest setting on the thermostat was 16 degrees Celsius (61 Fahrenheit); the options were to keep it at 16 degrees or turn it off. Coming from a cold climate, the room felt very hot. We tried opening the door to the balcony to get fresh air in during the night; that made the temperature perfect but ended up being extremely loud due to street/traffic noise (a few sirens, a trash truck, people walking down the street talking loudly, etc.). We used earplugs on night 2 and it drowned out the noise. Things cooled down later in the week, so the temperature of the room wasn’t an issue for us after the first couple days. The website lists the heating/cooling dates if this is a concern for you (we saw this after).

Da das Hotel liegt zentral am champ Élysée .
Zimmer sind ok. Leider war ich im 1. Stock zum Innenbereich und hier sollte man kein Fenster öffnen. Laute Geräte und Ausblick entsetzlich dreckig.
Ich wollte abends ein Freund mit auf das Zimmer nehmen, weil die Bars rundherum schon geschlossen hatten. Der Nachtportier hat ihn in sehr unhöflicher Weise rausgeschmissen und uns beschimpft das es nicht erlaubt sei. Eine Art und Weise mit Gästen so umzugehen ist kein Service und auch kein 4 Sterne Hotelservice.
Update 10.3.25
Habe das Hotel nochmal gebucht mit einer besseren Kategorie
Der General hat mir ein Update gegeben. Zur Straßenseite . Sehr schönes Zimmer mit kleinen Balkon und seitlichem Blick zum Park.
Der General ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit .

3 ème fois que nous y allons, nous adorons cet hôtel !
Le personnel très gentil, les chambres très belles, rénovées, très propres et spacieuses pour Paris !
Très bien placé, au pied des Champs Elysées et très beau quartier.
Une adresse à noter et à ne pas oublier!
Je recommande vivement pour un petit séjour en amoureux ????
