  • Even the rooms on the 9th floor, where a special key gives access were smaller than we were accustomed to in a First Class hotel. I have an extreme reaction to heights, so with the bed placed facing the floor to ceiling window, I was not very happy, so slept on the side nearest to safety! The bathroom and toilet were separate, and again rather small. The room had a wardrobe, drawers, minibar and safe. The TV had English channels, not just BBc and CNN,
    Breakfast was served in the Presidential Court where those only on the 8th and 9th floors had access. This is a small room where one can help oneself to drinks and snacks at any time of the day.
    The decor was bland. The hotelmtries to be environmentally friendly. You choose whether or not you want the bedding changed and towels replaced, and indicate by placing a card on the bed if you do, or putting used towels in the bath.

    For those only staying a few days, I would recommend the hotel.

    Unique Qualities: The views from our room were nothing special, but the Eiffel Tower could be seen from the special lounge.
    The hotel is on the shuttle bus route, so getting to and from the airport is easy and inexpensive. The Congress building has classy stores where you can window shop... The Arc de Triomphe is only a fewminutes walk away. Cafes and an Irish pub are nearby, and the metro agqin is just round the corner, so the situation is good.

     I am so envious of you having been to Paris. I'm glad that you wrote historical things to your tips, as the history is my favourite part. I think I should be living in the pink house at Montmartre hehehe ;-)
