Reviews and Ratings
The hotel provides clean and comfortable rooms with very friendly service. The location is superb, close to major attractions and shopping areas. The dining experience offers fantastic options. On the downside, the facilities are limited, and some noise from the street may be heard.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The balcony attached to the room provided a view of street performers, which was nice, but the street noise was bothersome. Despite initially being assigned a room with an opera view, I appreciated the new room received later in the day.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its spacious and well-equipped rooms, providing a comfortable stay. However, the dim lighting was a minor inconvenience during my visit. The service was prompt and accommodating, making my experience pleasant. The location was ideal, offering easy access to public transport and iconic landmarks. The dining options were on the pricier side, but the quality was exceptional. Overall, a good value for a convenient and enjoyable stay.
The hotel was situated across the street from the opera with a vibrant atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable and beautiful, albeit needing some decorating in the bathroom. The service was exceptionally professional and friendly, catering to a multi-generational group with some minor oversights. The location was excellent, next to popular attractions and major department stores. The dining experience could be improved for breakfast service. Overall, a charming hotel with room for enhancement.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant one overall. The rooms were small but clean, and the location was fantastic, right across the road from Galleries Lafayette and the Opera House, making it convenient for dining and shopping, although the room could use more lighting. Despite the small size and considering the price paid, the value could be improved.
As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I was mesmerized by the incredible view of the opera from my balcony, although the interior was a bit weird. The service was beyond my expectations; the staff were warm, friendly, and always ready to help, quickly fixing any issues with a smile. The location was ideal, right in front of the old Opera house and close to major attractions and shopping spots. The dining options covered a variety of tastes and were delivered right to my room. Overall, a great stay with only minor drawbacks.
The hotel rooms are opulent with amazing decorations, but there was some disturbance from nearby renovations. The service was outstanding with a great selection of wines, and the location is excellent with access to various attractions. The dining experience offers a wide range of choices but lacks variety over consecutive mornings.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms, and friendly staff. The location was perfect, although the dining experience could be improved. The facilities were enjoyable, and the price was reasonable.
The hotel offers a mix of positive and negative experiences. The rooms were dirty with hair in the bathroom and an old lip balm found behind the side table, but they were high-ceilinged with top-to-bottom windows and curtains, offering a view of the road. The service was exceptional, especially for a birthday celebration, with courteous and eclectic staff catering to various needs. The location was both noisy due to the Aircon unit and superb, near the Opera Garnier, offering unforgettable views and convenient access to various sites. The dining experience lacked variety but provided a standard option. The facilities were decent, and the stay had some standout features.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right across the road from Galleries Lafayette and the Opera House. The rooms are spacious and well-maintained, with lovely features like a walk-in closet, large bathrooms, and some even with charming balconies to step out onto. However, some rooms might be smaller than expected, with views into the inner garden not clearly stated in the description.
