This was my first trip to Paris. I was not sure where to stay in the city, what area was safe, and read that Paris had many trashy hotels and I do not speak French. I hunted hard to find a hotel with high reviews and this one had so many. The bad few reviews clearly came from customers that must have been in a bad mood because the staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable every chance they could.

Our flight was changed so that we had to arrive at 8am putting us at the hotel at 9am. I knew the chance of a room being ready this early was highly unlikely but we thought we could leave our bags. After being greeted warmly by the front desk person, we were told they had a room but it needed to be cleaned. We were told that they would send housekeeping to our room immediately and the room would be ready in an hour. We chatted in the lobby with the staff and the room was ready as promised.

The hotel has a charm to it (charm does mean small) but it was so comfortable. The hotel is on a quiet street, just one street each direction to anything you need or want. Super high end shopping and typically shopping is just a few blocks, a short 10-minute walk to the Louvre, and less than ½ mile to most anything. Cafes are less than a 2-minute walk and a great breakfast pastry shop right across the street that puts out fresh pastry every morning.
The room was on the smaller side but I have stayed in smaller. The room had a queen bed and about 2-feet on either side of the bed. The room had two steps up to walk behind the headboard that led to a large opening door that looked into the courtyard. I slept with my window open every night as the weather was so fantastic. The bathroom is spacious with an oversized stall shower with a wonderful rainfall shower head, separate toilette room and the whole room had amazing lighting. The room had a large Samsung flat screen TV. The TV had two English stations but I did not spend much time watching TV.

The hotel also offers a lovely lobby bar and a bartender from Sri Lanka. He made an a fantastic drink and helped with local directions and information on the Metro.
I only have nice things to say about this hotel and I would return and recommend it to anyone that asked. I always felt safe, welcome and slept so comfortably in my quite room and amazing shower. I am sure you could find larger rooms but from what I understand, it is hard to find a large room in Paris unless you can pay a super high price for the space. The funny thing, a few nights later in London we stayed in another beautiful but larger hotel and I kept thinking about how I loved the space in Paris and the way it made me feel. My boyfriend said that it was the charm and the staff that made it special not the square feet.

Excellent hotel!!! amazing staff!!! a hotel with charm, fantastic location, and mainly full of class! We are already planning to go back; Thank you for the hotel staff who could make me feel home!

The hotel Opera de Noailles is one of the finest hotels in Europe my husband and I have ever stayed at. Situated in the very heart of Paris, near the Opera, the famous shopping centre Galeries Lafayettes and the Louvre, Opera de Noailles is a haven of peace where you can relax and unwind. Being an art lover, I was thoroughly impressed by the ultra-modern design combining art déco and the japanese zen both in the rooms and public areas.

Upon arrival, our luggage was picked up immediately and sent to our room while check-in was a matter of minutes thanks to the efficient staff at the reception. As soon as we stepped into our room , we were speechless. We really felt like staying at a contemporary art museum, yet. reminiscent of Stendal's Le Rouge et le Noir! Only an artist could have decorated room 307 combining with skill the basic colours - red, black, white - in a modern design. This amazing decor goes hand in hand with comfort. Cleanliness in the room was impeccable!

Breakfast was served in a cosy dining-room and consisted of a wide variety of French cheeses, croissants, rolls, pancakes, fruit and cereals, apple-pie(!), jams, scrambled eggs and sausages. Two smiling ladies welcomed us there every morning and made us feel like staying at a friend's home - not a hotel!

Some of the best restaurants in Paris are situated at a short walking distance from the hotel-such as Le Petit Colbert which we loved and the japanese restaurant Nikko next door not to mention a wide range of bistrots and bars in the area. We would have loved a gourmet restaurant in the hotel, though.

We would like to thank all the staff for being so kind and polite making our stay such a great pleasure. We only wish we could stay longer... but one thing's for sure. On our next visit to Paris, we will definitely choose Hotel Opera de Noailles!

This was our second stay at this hotel and we were only here for 1 night, but thanks to the great location we managed to pack plenty in! The reception staff at all times were warm and friendly. I love the quirky little additions, giant snails in reception, bears in the garden, funny little object d'art everywhere!

Our room was lovely, quieter than last time when we overlooked the street, but that wouldn't have been an issue. Lots of nice little touches in the room - black slippers! And a fabulous night's sleep in the very comfortable beds.

No hesitation recommending this hotel, would gladly stay here again!
