  Terrible hotel with the worst breakfast

  Unfortunately, this is one of the biggest disappointments among the hotels I have ever stayed in, especially considering the stated level, category, and cost of accommodation. Even high-category numbers are incredibly small here and at a very high price. But the problem is not so much the size, but the overall level of comfort: the mattress is uncomfortable, the bedding is unpleasant and literally prickly, completely not up to what you expect from a five-star hotel. Room cleaning is a separate issue. For some reason, it is only held once a day, there is no proper evening service. The lottery with the towels is constant: sometimes they bring them, sometimes they forget them. The robes completely disappeared from our room for three days. For a hotel of this price level, this is simply unacceptable. But the worst thing is breakfast. Without exaggeration, this is the worst breakfast I have ever eaten at a hotel, and not just in France, but in any country. I haven't encountered such tasteless and low-quality food for breakfast in a long time. Baking is a separate misunderstanding. To be in Paris, in France, and serve such disgusting pastries is simply inexplicable to me. It would seem that croissants, bread, and viennoiseries should be at least reasonably good right here. The breakfast here is so bad that after the first impression, you absolutely don't want to go back to it. That is why I completely do not understand the pricing of this hotel. Yes, it is a small boutique hotel, but having five stars in no way makes it a five-star in terms of actual service level, comfort, and quality. In my opinion, the price is absolutely disproportionate to what you get. Even if the accommodation cost was three times lower, I'm still not sure I would be willing to pay that money for this hotel. The only thing I really want to mention positively is the staff downstairs: the reception employees, bellboys, and other staff at the entrance were very friendly, kind, and pleasant. There are no complaints about them; on the contrary, they left a good impression. But, unfortunately, the friendly staff cannot compensate for the inconvenient room, strange housekeeping, lack of basic attention to detail, and, especially, the absolutely terrible breakfast. For this price and the promised five stars, the experience is completely different. I would definitely not choose this hotel again and cannot recommend it to anyone expecting a truly five-star level in Paris.

  It was a pleasure for us

  I had chosen the hotel because of its location and the view of the Eiffel Tower. It was the ideal starting point for our Paris weekend. The staff members are all warm and accommodating. Even when I made a mistake with a restaurant reservation, the staff was able to immediately recommend and book a worthy alternative for us. We really enjoyed the three days and will book again during our next stay in Paris.

  Ruined 60th Birthday

  Totally failed service day after day!! This is meant to be a five star hotel - certainly on price but failed to deliver to a much lower standard. We went for four nights. Before we went we communicated my wife’s allergy to feathers (they trigger an asthma an attack) The hotel wrote back to confirm this would not be a problem. On the first evening after a night out we checked the bedding and it was all feathers. There was no explanation as to why this was the case when the hotel had responded confirming an understanding of the request. The hotel found some feather free pillows but could not replace the duvet and my wife had to sleep under a blanket - remember this is a 5 star hotel! The next morning I asked at reception that the duvet was replaced. We came back at 1600 and bed had been made but the duvet had not been changed, even after being reminded!! They managed to change it after further complaints. A friend of ours had sent a surprise gift of a spend at the hotel. They got confirmation that the money had been taken and the gift left in the room. This was completely untrue!! We were very embarrassed when our friends had to ask whether we liked the gift - we never knew anything about it even though the hotel confirmed it had been out in our room. Were they just taking the money!!! No explanation was ever given as to the error and the money was then refunded to our friend. At breakfast the hot food was cold, and the service was poor - we were ignored and had to ask for the standard fair. We found rubbish and a broken glass left on the stairs . The door staff, a. Ight runner, and the lady manager at breakfast were the only redeeming features.
