The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The only piece that surprised us was our room, even thoigh mentioned in the ad, did not have a terrace which was disappointing. Also our room was in the basement. There was a window to a small atrium area, not accessible to anyone. The room had no natural light so very dark. It was also quite humid as the hottub is on that floor as well. Because it is a very old building, simply the age not the condition of the property, there is no individual temperature controls in the rooms. You can either choose to have the system in your room on or off. Initially it was very warm but having the window helped a lot. I would go back to this hotel but i would be sure to specify i do not want a basement room and i would want a terrace.

The reception at this hotel was first rate. The woman that welcomed my family made us all feel like we were VIP guests. My kids are still talking about how friendly and warm she was. Our transfer to and from the airport was all handled stress free for us. The breakfast was exceptionally well done - from the wide variety to the high-end quality. The room was amazing, clean, large, and comfortable. The location of this stay is within walking distance to many great restaurants, the Louvre, Notre Dame, and the metro line that runs straight to the Arc de Triomphe and the Eifel Tower. There are several small grocery markets within 2 minutes walk if anything is needed. I'll stay here again next time for sure.
