My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room we had booked, although a superior, felt a bit small for a triple suite. However, it was quite good in terms of comfort. The limited breakfast and absence of a full evening meal over the weekend were minor letdowns.

The hotel offers a mix of pros and cons. The rooms, although cozy, carry some noise from neighboring doors. However, they provide a nice and standard accommodation. The service, while having a rich history, lacked organization, especially on Saturday mornings. The location is central and convenient for exploring, but check-in can be disappointing. The dining experience is up to standard but could offer more variety. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.

Even though the hotel felt more like a four-star than a five-star, the room was spacious and comfortable, albeit basic for a superior category. The breakfast was limited, and the evening meal options over the weekend were just snacks.

The service, although the staff was kind and helpful, seemed overwhelmed, which led to situations like running out of items during breakfast and being blunt when requesting full payment.

The location was convenient, walking distance to everything in a lively neighborhood. While the proximity to central Paris was great, the check-in experience was marred by disappointing surroundings for a five-star establishment.

The dining experience, despite being pricey, didn't live up to a five-star standard. While the quality couldn't be faulted, the dining room lacked atmosphere.

The hotel is conveniently located near everything Paris has to offer. The rooms, although a little small and lacking a bath, are typical for city center hotels. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to cater to our needs. The location was excellent, with easy access to key attractions and amenities. The dining experience fell short with limited options and slow service.

The hotel is beautifully designed and comfortable, perfectly located for easy access to most city center locations within a short walk. However, the room design felt a bit cramped with excessive furniture, and public spaces could be improved.
