What guests report

View

Balcony/terrace rooms offer stunning Eiffel Tower views, especially rooms on 7th floor and above; back-facing courtyard rooms are quieter but lack views

Bed & mattress

Extremely comfortable, high-quality mattresses and crisp, soft linens with pleasant scent—consistently praised

Bathroom & water

Good water pressure and hot water; sliding glass doors lack privacy and proper handles; heated floors in some rooms; Diptyque toiletries provided

Wi-Fi

Not mentioned in reviews; presumed available but reliability unknown

Breakfast

Excellent quality with fresh pastries, croissants, bread, meats, cheeses, fruit, yogurt, fresh-squeezed orange juice; eggs available on request; €31 standalone charge not worth the cost—local cafés offer better value

AC / heating

Air conditioning present but inconsistent; guests report inability to adjust below 23°C, malfunctions lasting 24+ hours, and lack of proactive staff notification

Elevator

Unreliable

Local knowledge

Book rooftop bar reservation at least one day ahead—it fills up constantly and you may be turned away without advance booking

Request a room on higher floors away from the elevator and street noise for a quieter stay

Splurge for a Signature Room with terrace/balcony to get Eiffel Tower views and additional living space
