Here on business, trying to use my laptop and review documents. The only usable lights are by the bed (I want to work at the desk, not lying in bed). The light near the wardrobe is so feeble that I cannot see to get the hangers back in their brackets - thoughtfully (not) they have set the door to open against what light there is, making the situation worse.
The desk is small and most of it is taken up by the TV - a little thought would have mounted it on the wall.
The room is small and overpriced, but that is typical of Paris.

I stayed at the hotel for a week in November. The hotel is conveniently located between 2 metro stations in a real Parisian neighbourhood. You will need public transportation to all of the major sights but it´s very easy to get around by metro.

The rooms are nice and clean but fairly small. This however is typical for Paris and should not bother you. Staff is also friendly & helpful. There is a PC with free internet in the lobby or you can use free wifi.

I did not have breakfast at the hotel which costs extra. There is a real French bakery as well as a supermarket right across the street. Several cafes and restaurants are nearby as well.

I would definitely stay there again.

I have mixed feelings about this hotel. The location - on a (relatively) quiet side street about two blocks away from the Gare Lazare train station - is excellent. The rooms are very small but nice. I particularly loved the down comforters and pillows - very nice!

However, the staff at the hotel is among the worst I've encountered in years of traveling and working at inns. I booked the hotel through Priceline but unfortunately encountered a work situation in Tunisia that prevented me making the original dates of my reservation. Fully understanding the terms of the Priceline booking, I called the hotel to see if there was anything that could be done. The woman on the phone was kind enough to change the reservation for me. When I arrived on the dates of the new reservation, I spoke with the manager and discovered that the reservation I had confirmed was not actually made.

The manager (who should not be working in the hospitality industry) was rude, condescending and completely inflexible. I was given several different stories as to why the reservation I confirmed over the phone with one of his employees could not be honored, leading me to believe there were two options: the hotel's incompetence or outright lies. I went ahead and booked a new reservation for that night because there were very options for hotels at that point (2 in the afternoon during a busy conference week). I ended up paying double the price, received no apology or acknowledgement of wrong-doing and then was made to carry my luggage up five flights of winding stairs because the elevator was broken!

Worst of all, the room did not have a functioning lock - not pleasant for a single female traveller. I ended up barricading the door with my luggage just in case. The next morning, I checked out and was unable to get a straight answer from a new round of hotel staff on whether I would be a charged a no-show fee for my original reservation!

Based on this incompetence, I would recommed that all travellers stay away from this hotel - I would not trust my credit card number with people who barely understand the basics of running a hotel!

This hotel is a really nice hotel, I enjoyed my stay with my daughter, the rooms are not to expensive, the hotel is well located, and not far from the champ elysees.
Moreover, the rooms are not to small and the staff is really helpfull and really nice especially Julian , highly recommended hotel !
