Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Unbeatable location near Opera Garnier and major department stores
- Beautiful Art Deco lobby with a glass dome and vintage 1927 elevators
- Rooms are surprisingly spacious for Paris standards
Snel Overzicht: A visually stunning Art Deco renovation that looks great on Instagram but suffers from thin walls and street noise.
Beoordeeld door @Nurselouis__: I felt like the main character in a French movie staying here. Waking up to that street view and having coffee on my private balcony was pure magic. If you're planning a romantic trip to Paris, this spot near the Opera is an absolute gem.

Reality check
The 'Signature' rooms have the views but also the noise; the 'Alcove' rooms are quiet but look into a dull courtyard.
- You plan to shop at Galeries Lafayette and Printemps until you drop
- You appreciate Art Deco architecture and 'Instagrammable' interiors
- You need a central base with easy Metro access (Richelieu-Drouot)

Tips van Insiders
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 5 minutes to 'Mamiche' for one of the best croissants in Paris.

The rooftop of Galeries Lafayette (next door) is free to access and offers a better view of the Eiffel Tower than the hotel.
- ✨
Request a room with a balcony if you want that classic Parisian photo op, but bring earplugs.
