We visited Paris for the first time at the beginning of January. The hotel was a perfect location. We did struggle to get to the hotel from the airport as we'd never used the metro and was trying to save where we could. Make sure you do as much research on using the metro as possible. We were greeted by a lovely lady. Very friendly and made us feel welcomed. We were on the 3rd floor, they have a lift which is very tiny but fits 2 people and your backpacks. The room was adorable with the quirky wallpaper and retro red phone but could do with a mirror above the dressing table as it was out in the hallway and bathroom. I have to mention the window as I wanted to stay in a typical French style room with the tall opening window and shutters, and this is what we got. The view from our room was lush to see. You can't go to the top floor though to see out. The bathroom is clean and fresh looking with fresh towels. Your room gets cleaned in tje afternoon, just make sure to leave the sign out to have your room recleaned. I booked breakfast which was a good price on booking and it was perfect. It included a coffee machine (with hot chocolate) , pain au chocolat, plain croissants, brown sliced baguette, cheese and types of ham, cereal, Yogurts, fruit, pancakes (with chocolate), beans, scrambled egg, bacon and tomatoes, juices and a toaster machine. The tableware was even to detail with the traditional French style cup and saucers. The location is perfect as there is a metro just up the road (1 min walk). It's about a 15 minute walk to gallaries lafayette (shopping mall with an amazing ceiling) and lots of other attractions in the area (go sit inside Starbucks, you'll be amazed). A great walk as there's lots to take in seeing the buildings. There is also a supermarket close by which was handy to get some snacks for our room. We left our luggage on our last day and they keep it locked up for you. The young gentleman in the afternoon is lovely and very helpful. He helped me getting back to the airport via the metro on the way back (Google maps will be your best friend) All in all, it's a great hotel and we will definitely be rebooking again in the future.
