“Great hotel, perfect location - would recommend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011

We stayed at the hotel from 31st August for 3 nights. The hotel was perfectly located in the lovely area of Passy, which you cannot fully appreciate until you arrive. An abundance of patisseries, shops, restaurants, bars on your doorstep, not to mention the 5 minute walk to the Eiffel tower. We booked for a superior double, which was small but, in my opinion, bigger than I expected after reading previous reviews of the hotel. The decoration of the room was very pretty, Parisian style, and the room was very clean. Breakfast was offered to us but we didn’t stay for the breakfast in the hotel so cannot comment. The staff were very friendly and helpful. On the first night, we asked the reception for a recommendation of good French food, and the restaurant they sent us to was so good (and reasonably priced), we went back for our last supper before leaving Paris!
I would most definitely recommend this hotel for a great all round 3 star hotel, and would certainly stay again!

“Great little hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2011

This is a nice little hotel! It is about a 5 minute walk to the Eiffel tower (on quiet streets) so I ended up walking to the tower a few times on my trip to see it during the day and then lit up at night. Rue Passy has so many shops and food stores-which was very handy for anything you need to pick up. The metro line is probably one a 3 minute walk away. The staff was very nice in providing recommendations and suggestions. I stayed in a single room, and of course, it was very small (as I expected it to be) but was decorated so elegantly-I really enjoyed it.

“Lovely hotel, good location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

Pros:
* In the 16th arrondissement of Paris, it is in one of the nicer sections of the city. Having later visited the 18th arr., I appreciate its niceness even more.
* Room furnishing are quaint, very pretty and simple, some might call it "shabby chic"
* Relatively close to the Passy metro station, and once you're on the metro, you can retty much just about go anywhere
* View of the tip of the Eiffel Tower
* Hotel is proud of its "green" status (carbon neutral/water recycling etc.) and that's great, but (shamefully) not at all one of the features which we chose the hotel for.
* English/French speaking staff
* FREE WIFI, always a plus

Cons:
* Expensive. Sure, you get what you pay for, it's in the nice part of Paris, all renovated and looking good, but at the end of the day, you're looking at 300+ Euros per night.
* No included breakfast :(
* No parking

Tip:
* As long as you have booked a Junior Suite or more, you will have plenty of space and comfort. The regular rooms are quite small as reflected in some of the other reviews, but we were in a suite and it was great
* A book of 10 metro tickets is called a carnet and has no expiry date, and can be used multiple times in the first hour after use

Dear client,

First of all thanks for staying with us and for your very useful comments!
Regarding the price of the room, as you said you were in a suite, so obviously it's more expensive, but we do have smaller (and cheaper) rooms of course! Also, we offer numerous promotions and discounts throughout the year.
Also, it's true indeed that we don't have our own parking, but there's a private parking just around the corner from the hotel.
We hope you will come back again soon!

“Nice and cute hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed for 9 nights in a family suite which is really 2 adjoining rooms with own bathrooms.
First of all the pluses: Easy walk to the Eiffel Tower, short walk to the Metro, nice up-market neighbourhood, supermarket is 1 block away, which opens at 9 am, friendly staff who can all speak English, free in-room wifi internet, nice deco in the rooms, room service is very quick most of the time.
Minuses: Rooms are small and the bathrooms even smaller, the shower shampoo dispensers did not work and were not fixed for the duration of our stay, the air-cond in one of the rooms was not working, no kettle in the rooms for tea or coffee (though when we requested for hot water and cups they did arrive promptly)
We enquired about and was booked a taxi for our trip to the airport. It would have been nice to be informed that with a booked taxi, they put the meter on 10 minutes before the taxi arrived so the meter was already at 16 Euros when we got in instead of about 2 Euros if you hailed one at the street. (Unless we were conned by the driver)
Anyway, we had a nice stay and enjoyed our visit.

Dear client,

First of all thank you very much for staying with us and for your very useful comments!We are very happy you enjoyed your stay with us and hope you will come back again soon!
The room you are referring to is indeed a family room, not a suite, so obviously it's smaller, but of course all appliances should work perfectly so i am very sorry if it was not the case, we are constantly trying to improve maintenance and we take good note of your comments.
We hope you will come back soon and will be very happy to receive you again in our hotel!

“Beautiful hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. Luxurious and comfortable rooms with lovely decor, friendly staff and great location. Breakfast served in our room was my favorite part of our stay. Organic fruits and eggs and environmentally sound practices made our stay even better. We will definitely stay again on our next trip to Paris.
