    The rooms are very well decorated here with good shower, separated toilet, as for instance. The staff is very amiable, caring. Its location close to public transport is comfortable. Distance to the restaurant takes 200 metres.

    Small hotel but well designed. Rooms are small but have all the amenities and comfort. Decorated with style Location is excellent near the department stores No one can access the hotel without a key which gives a feeling of security Love the small entrance and music in the hallway.

    There is one elevator that services all the hotel so you have to wait sometimes to get to your room. The lobby/ reception/bar/breakfast are all in one small area

    Walking distance to so many interesting places including Galleries Lafayette. Liked the breakfast room.

    Access is one door onto the street so waiting with suitcases for a taxi was an unusual experience - not really a dislike.

    convenient access
    great dining

    great access to top attractions and dining

    I loved how conveniently close this hotel was to the Louvre Museum, only about a 15-minute stroll away, as well as the beautiful Luxembourg Gardens, less than 3 km away. The quick access to the metro made hopping around the city effortless, and I found myself enjoying delicious meals just a few steps down Rue St Anne.

    The shower, the room which although small had a large Tv screen and the breakfast was excellent.

    The concierge persuading us to take a bus trip that he recommended rather than a more appropriate one we had picked because he received a commission on the one he picked. For older people this hotel is a little difficult as there is no assistance available and the entrance is quite a distance to the rooms and the lift is small, I still have the bruises from the door closing on me!!

    I was charmed by the stylish decor and care taken in the hotel's design. Accessibility was also excellent for seniors.

    More variety in dining options nearby would be helpful.

    The room amenities, minibar, check-in.

    A couple of shirts hanged on the chair was lost after room cleaning. The room service contractor company was informed, but no help. The reception apologized for the missed items, but that was it. Keep your shirts in the luggage next time.

    Beds are comfy, location wise very good. Room is tad small.

    The morning/afternoon staff mistaken my booking, i booked two bedrooms connecting to each other, but they gave me only 1 room with 1 bed. I checked in very late in the evening, so the midnight shift staff didn't really know about the booking (already prepared by the morning/afternoon shift - he said). But the midnight staff is very helpful though. Elevator is very small and only has 1 to serve the whole building.
