“Lovely little hotel and great value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012
5
people found this review helpful

We spent three nights at this lovely hotel and there were a number of things which stood out for me. Firstly, all the staff were incredibly friendly, even the night porters, and were happy to advise on ideas of things to do. The room was quite small, but bigger than some rooms I've had in Paris, and you don't get big rooms here really. The bed was incredibly comfortable - two single mattresses with a double duvet and sheets with nice soft pillows. The bathroom was immaculate and a good size. Breakfast was in the basement and for 10 euros I was surprised at the choice, with quiches, cakes, cold meats and cheeses, croissants, juice, cereal, etc. The location was a little out of the way, but the area itself is interesting, with a good Monet gallery just up the road.

Room Tip: We were on the 4th floor, which I guess would be quieter than lower down, but the road outside is no...

“Charming Hotel, Peaceful Neighborhood, Warm Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We arrived in the morning and the front desk staff didn't make a fuss about checking us in early (9AM) without extra charge. The rooms were very compact, but still adequate for two (Asian) travelers with one luggage each. Taller and more un-light travelers may find it too tight. The bathroom was clean, the lobby was charming, the staff were very friendly, helpful and always ready to extend assistance. The breakfast place at the cellar was quite unique and their few but quality breakfast buffet items of quiche, fresh fruits, caramel flan, breads and cheeses never disappoint. The location is in a quiet residential neighborhood, and walking to the train stations add to your delightful Parisian experience.

“Friendly, comfortable and convenient”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

The rooms are small but comfortable. I loved the surrounding neighborhood, which is residential and gives you a sense of the atmosphere of Paris life. I could see the Eiffel Tower by looking out of the window. Staff was very friendly and I enjoyed the breakfast which is an extra 10 euros (a bit expensive, but there is a good selection of food and it is convenient). A short walk from the OECD and from the RER-C station.

“A good hotel in a good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

This is a good hotel in a good location. It is not great, but more than satisfying.

The room was small, as we have come to expect in Europe, but adequate. The bed was a bit narrow for two people, and my only real complaint was that the mattress seemed to sag into the middle. Mind you, we were so tired from enjoying Paris each day that we barely noticed.

The location is a short walk from the Eiffel tower along the river. If you are lucky and crane your neck, you might see the tower from your room. We ended up sitting by the river at the end of each night of touring, watching the last round of the fabulous lights on the tower. Magical.

The hotel is a moderate walk from the nearest metro, which is not on a main line but easy enough to transfer to. We took the metro home each night after seeing Paris.

The hotel is very close to a bus stop that has service right along the river, including direct access to the tower, the Louvre, and many other sites. We took this bus in the mornings. It was very full, but we got where we wanted to get to efficiently.

The service at the hotel was great. They provided valuable advice and also arranged a shuttle to the airport that we had not planned on, but the price and convenience they were able to provide was great. We used the computer in the lobby to print our boarding passes -- a must for efficient travel these days. We did not eat at the hotel, but did sample a few things at the nearby cafes -- very good.

I am a geek who travels on business doing geeky things, so I always rate the geek factors. For this hotel there was free wireless Internet, but you do have to ask the desk for the Wi-Fi code. The network was adequate, and I did get done what I needed to get done.

I did have trouble finding free plugs in the room to charge the geek toys, but I managed by unplugging a lamp. More accessible plugs are needed.

I would stay at this hotel again.

“Small, friendly and cosy hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011

person found this review helpful

I regularly visit Paris and have found myself in some pokey and over-priced hotels. This is not one of them. The room price was reasonable adn the location good, though not very central. Metro, RER and good shopping and restaurants are within 5-10 minute's walk. There are basic facilities very close to the hotel.

My room was small - you learn to expect this in European city hotels - but adequate. A comfortable 3/4 size bed (which may have been a squeeze for a couple, but was fine for a lone traveller), compact wardrobe, newly fitted bathroom with shower, excellend double glazed windows that shut out all street noise, good TV, good desk space, power points, lights and nice furnishings. I was impressed with how efficinetly they had used space to create a comfortable room. Heating was great - if anything the room was too warm. Free fast internet is provided.

Reception was efficient checking in and out, adn staff were always very friendly and spoke good English. The breakfast room is in the cellar. Breakfast includes a great selection of home made quiche, omelettes, cakes and pies that are pretty irresistable, as well as fruit, pastries, bread etc. I was happy the hotel was close to the River where I ran each morning!

I likes the Eiffer-Kennedy enought to go back another time, in favour of the standards or tatty cheap hotels.
