| Very central location in Paris. Friendly staff with excellent English. Breakfast is very substantial, and you can nearly eat enough to last you until night time! |

| Hotel was adequate but room was rather basic and the price charged was a little expensive for that reason. Ithought the breakfast was fine. |

| Room was small but most rooms generally in Europe are this way. Had a privilege room which had a SPECTACULAR VIEW - will never forget the Eiffel Tower spectacular light show. DO NOT REGRET PAYING such a high cost for the room as the view was the selling point. Little extras like robes, slippers, toiletries all made it that bit more special. Breakfast was included - they could improve on that in a big way. Hotel staff mostly were helpful. |

| My husband and I had arranged to meet our friends in Paris for a short break in June. Since we wanted to make the best of the attractions, we chose to stay in the 7th, between the Eiffel Tower and the Invalides. We had previsously stayed in the Bastille (11th) at a much lower price and also much more seedier hotels but that's another story! We pre-booked the room at quite a reasonable rate considering it's location. We didn't opt for the Breakfast as it was €15 / person and being in Paris...you can go to any decent cafe to get a Cafe Creme & Croissant for €4. We knew they had a few rooms with a view over the EIffel Tower so I did query them about having one of those after having booked. The management explained that you had to pay an extra €30 a night for these and since we had a limited budget we had to decline it. The hotel was easy to find, a 2 minutes walk from Metro La Tour Maubourg on line 8 and in a very quiet street, which was quite nice. The lobby was spotless, spacious and they have a courtesy computer which you can use for free if you don't have a laptop with you. (they had free wi-fi in the rooms BTW) The staff was most helpful and very polite. When we got to our room, it was a reasonable size (it being Paris) and was spotless. We were a bit surprised by what seemed a double bed was in fact twin beds tucked in together but it didn't bother us. The room also has the benefit of overlooking the courtyard, so very quiet and also authentic as you see the locals buildings and balcony. It was dark so I went to open the curtains and the window as I always do when I come in and start unpack. There was my big surprise, they had given us a room with the view of the Tower and didn't charge us the extra!! I was so pleased and it did make our stay vey special. After a long stroll along the Seine we went back to our hotel to admire the Tower all lit up. |

| The hotel is in a fantastic location and because we were there just for a short holiday and to sightsee, this hotel was just what we needed! The breakfast was fantastic! Only thing that didn't go down too well with us was when we had ordered a shuttle bus to take us to the airport, when the shuttle arrived, noone from the reception informed us of it arriving, even though we had paid a certain amount of money up front to book it, and the bus took off 10 minutes before we came down from our room! Other than that it was a good stay! |

| The hotel is located very close to the sites that tourists want to see in Paris, e.g. Eiffel Tower. There were little grocery stores and restaurants close to the hotel. We found an excellent restaurant/sidewalk cafe near the hotel where my wife and I could have a great dinner for under 25 Euros for both of us. The room was very quiet, and we rarely could hear other guests in the hallway. |

| Thank you for such a great view of the Eiffel Tower (as shown on your website). Fabulous 2 night stay at your hotel. The staff was very helpful with directions. We were so thrilled to have a nice laundry facility right across the street with Miele W/D's. so many boulangerie within a block or two. Loved that it was in a smaller neighborhood and was tucked back from the busy streets. We both felt safe walking at night. I have recommended to friends for the future and I will for sure stay there on my next trip to Paris. The location was great. So close that we hardly took the metro. Walked thru Rue Cler and over to St. Germain area several times. Very easy walking and lots of great shops nearby. |

| The room was totally different from the pictures shown on the site. When I asked for a Eiffel Tower view they asked a charge of 30 euro extra a night. The walls are so thin, I could hear every sound from the hall, but also I could hear the neighours waken up, sing. I came to Paris to go to some parties with friends, and after the stay I was really really tired... The charge of the parking is the same as they charge in a public parking and that is too much, you're a guest no?.... |

| We arrived late by taxi (beware of minicab drivers trying to overcharge-ask around for prices before getting into the car) and were greeted by the warmest welcome. We were offered advice on where to go on our short stay to maximise our visit to Paris. The room was small but clean and cosy. The bathroom was spotless. The walls are quite thin and it was possible to hear noise from other rooms however, it did not impinge on our sleep. The location was fabulous. The Eiffel Tower was just around the corner and with a good map, it was easy to walk to the main attractions. We were greeted again by our receptionist on the second night and he was interested to hear what we had done and what we had planned for our last day. He was genuinely happy to talk to us. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return to this hotel. Trying to use a bit of French really endears you to locals! |

| This place was great! Right by the Eiffel Tower and very central to lots of great stops in Paris. Very short (under 5 min.) walk to subway. Area seemed very safe. If you are expecting a huge view of the Eiffel Tower you may be disappointed, but if you go out on the balcony you can still see the top of it over the buildings. The staff are a bit surly, but they are French after all. They speak English well. A manager did come by to ask if housekeeping was doing a good job, which they were. It was nice that she cared enough to ask. This is a reasonably nice room at an awesome rate and location, which is want you really want in any big city. It's small and not luxurious compared to American hotels, but still great by European standards. |
